Description
A rare opportunity on the beloved Hogeweg: a complete townhouse of approximately 296 m² spread across four floors, with a sunny south-facing garden, four balconies, a wooden veranda and an impressive collection of authentic period details. The property is currently configured as a double ground-floor apartment (8-H), a tenanted second-floor apartment and a vacant, recently renovated apartment on the third floor — ideal as an investment property, multigenerational home or for owner-occupation of the entire building.

*Ground floor*
The entrance through the characterful front door sets the tone immediately: original wall and wainscoting tiles, a tiled fountain with fish motif, a granito/tile floor and a wooden staircase with turned balusters and a carved newel post.

Through the en-suite with fitted cupboards you reach the second room at the garden side.
At the rear is the kitchen with tiled floor and French doors opening onto the terrace and the south-facing garden (approx. 52 m²). The partly covered wooden veranda creates a seamless transition between inside and outside. Also on this level: a toilet and a storage cupboard.

AREA
Hogeweg is situated in the Watergraafsmeer, one of the greenest residential neighbourhoods in Amsterdam-East, with wide streets, 1930s architecture and all urban amenities within easy reach.
Frankendael Park is within walking distance; Flevopark is quickly reachable by bike. For daily shopping, retail and dining, the Middenweg, Linnaeusstraat and Oostpoort shopping centre offer an abundance of choice.
Excellent transport links: tram lines 9 and 19 connect the neighbourhood directly to the city centre, and the property is within cycling distance of three railway stations — Muiderpoort, Science Park and Amstel (metro lines 50, 53 and 54; intercity services to Utrecht and Schiphol). By car, the A10 ring road (Watergraafsmeer exit) is only minutes away.
STREET NAME
In the Watergraafsmeer — a reclaimed polder — the Hogeweg has historically run along a raised dyke or embankment that stood above the surrounding low-lying polder landscape. In polder communities it was common practice to name such an elevated path the "Hogeweg" (High Road), to distinguish it from the lower, wetter paths alongside. The name has thus told the story of the remarkable landscape from which this beloved neighbourhood grew for centuries.
