A €17.9 million apartment overlooking the beautiful Vondelpark has come onto the market in Amsterdam, and it’s currently the most expensive residential listing in the Netherlands.
The property is on Koninginneweg in Oud-Zuid and takes up an entire floor of a 19th-century building. It measures about 7,200 square feet, which is unusually large for the city and very rare because it’s all on one level. Most homes in Amsterdam are divided across multiple levels and tend to be narrower.
Oud-Zuid is one of the more sought after parts of the city, developed in the late 1800s as Amsterdam expanded outward. It’s generally quieter than the historic center but still close to almost everything. The Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum are both nearby, though the immediate streets feel more residential than anything else.
The apartment sits inside a charming building dating to 1896. A private elevator opens directly into the unit. From there, the main living areas face the park, with large windows and fairly high ceilings.
As you might expect from a property of this size, the layout is spread out, but not complicated. There’s a formal sitting room with a fireplace, and another lounge area with built-ins. A few dining spaces are arranged throughout, some closer to the terraces. The rooms are fairly open and airy, so nothing feels too segmented.
There are two kitchens. One is open and clearly meant for everyday use. The other is more enclosed and likely intended for staff or when the apartment is being used for entertaining guests. A glass-fronted wine storage wall runs along part of the living area.
The primary bedroom is positioned toward the front, with a beautiful view towards the park. It includes two dressing rooms and a bathroom with a sauna, a bathtub, and a walk-in shower. The remaining bedrooms are set up more like private suites. Most of them have direct access outside.
In total, there are seven terraces, balconies, and loggias. That’s a lot for central Amsterdam, especially in a building of this age. The apartment also includes five private parking spaces, which is also relatively rare in the city.
There’s also a gym, an office, and a separate guest section. The apartment is huge, but the circulation is fairly simple—most of the rooms connect back to the main living areas without long hallways.
The building was renovated in 2015. The interiors and infrastructure were updated, while the exterior remained largely unchanged.
Listings at this level are limited in the Netherlands, and properties of this size in central Amsterdam don’t come up often. In this case, the size and the location do most of the talking.
Savills is handling the sale and the price in USD is around $21 million.
