The capital’s most expensive home has come on the market on Oranje Nassaulaan in Amsterdam-Zuid. The detached villa borders directly on Vondelpark and is expected to fetch no less than 20 million euros. With that price tag, this spacious property from the last century breaks all records on the local housing market. But what really makes an eight-figure Amsterdam address so special?
Inside Tour: 6 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms
For 20 million euros, you can purchase a stately family home with 560 square meters of living space, spread over five floors. The property features high ceilings, a distinctive staircase, and an exceptional amount of natural light.
The villa features six spacious bedrooms and five bathrooms. The highlight is the master bedroom on the Vondelpark side: it spans the full width of the home and features a cozy fireplace, a spacious bathroom, and a large walk-in closet.
Hidden luxury: from a private garage to an au pair suite
The property’s basement forms a rare underground space that goes far beyond mere extra storage. Thanks to its own separate entrance, this level offers the ideal opportunity to create a spacious guest suite or a private suite for an au pair.
In addition, the parking facilities are unparalleled by Amsterdam standards. Two spacious indoor garages provide covered parking for four cars, while the driveway offers space for another two vehicles. Full-scale floor plans are also already available for creating your own gym, sauna, or cozy home theater.
Panoramic view of Vondelpark
The extremely high asking price is largely justified by the rare location directly on the waterfront of the Vondelpark pond. With a spacious lot of 977 square meters and a 711-square-meter garden surrounding the home, this is one of the largest private estates in Oud-Zuid.
Furthermore, the property sits on freehold land, meaning a buyer is not subject to a ground lease. The sloping garden, with its thoughtfully placed landscaping, creates a unique “one-way view”: from inside the home, you enjoy a vibrant panoramic view of the park, while passersby cannot see inside.
