The apartment on Oosterparkstraat is a distinctive residence with a spacious kitchen and a garden of over 53 m2. The property is situated in a lovely location within walking distance of Weesperzijde, De Pijp, and Oosterpark. The dimensions and layout give the home a unique character. There are two bedrooms and ample space for, among other things, a breakfast nook, living room, and coffee bar. There is even the possibility of placing a garden house in the garden. This space can be ideally used as a home office, guesthouse, or storage. In the surrounding area, you’ll find many charming restaurants, cozy coffee bars, sports facilities, and the banks of the Amstel River are also a beautiful spot for recreation in the city. It’s interesting to note that a new construction project at Eerste Oosterparkstraat 88-126 won a public award in 2019. Local residents were closely involved in the project, and to the untrained eye, it may be hard to believe that the new buildings haven’t been there for a hundred years. They have preserved old elements for reuse.

Architecture
The Eerste Oosterparkstraat in Amsterdam is a typical street from the late 19th century. There are the first, second, and third Oosterparkstraat. The streets are named after the Oosterpark, the first large park (12.6 hectares) that the municipality had constructed in 1891. The Eerste Oosterparkstraat runs from the Amstel River to the Oosterpark. The street is one of the main streets in the 19th-century neighborhoods around the canal belt, such as the Staatslieden- and Kinkerbuurt and the Pijp. Nowadays, the Wibautstraat divides the Eerste Oosterparkstraat into two parts: the first part from the Amstel and the second part to the Oosterpark. In between runs the Wibautstraat. The section towards the park is now a lively shopping street, with a diverse range of offerings. There are stores with health products, a greengrocer, a florist, a gym, and a convenience store.
