In a city better known for understated elegance than eye-catching real estate, an apartment overlooking Vondelpark stands apart for its scale and setting. The residence sits on Koninginneweg in Oud-Zuid, a neighborhood long associated with old money and quiet refinement. Developed in the late 19th century as Amsterdam expanded south, the area remains one of the city’s most sought-after enclaves, within walking distance of the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum, yet removed from the crowds by its broad boulevards and stately architecture.

That sense of distinction extends to its price: with a price tag of 17.9 million euros (about $21 million), the apartment is currently the most expensive home on offer in the Netherlands. Savills holds the listing.

The full-floor residence is carved from a landmark 1896 building. At roughly 7,200 square feet, its generous scale is unusual for Amsterdam, where homes tend to be tall and narrow rather than open and expansive. A private elevator opens directly into the apartment, arriving at a marble-clad entry that sets the tone for the rest of the residence.

The sprawling layout reads more like a suburban house than a city apartment, with multiple living areas defined by high ceilings and large windows that draw in natural light and frame uninterrupted park views. A formal sitting room with a fireplace is complemented by a more relaxed lounge lined with built-ins, along with several dining areas that flow out to outdoor spaces.

The residence has two kitchens, one open-concept and designed for daily use, the other more discreetly situated and suited for staff or preparing larger gatherings. A glass-fronted wine case runs along one wall, as much a showpiece as it is bottle storage.

The primary suite is positioned for the best views, with dual dressing rooms and a bathroom that includes a sauna, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. Additional bedrooms are configured as private suites, each with direct access to the outdoors. There’s also a gym, an office, and a separate guest area.

The amount of private outdoor space is another element that makes the apartment rare in the city, with seven terraces, balconies, and loggias creating a constant connection to the park below. Five private parking spaces—another uncommon luxury in central Amsterdam—are also included.

The building itself was overhauled in 2015, updating its interiors and infrastructure while preserving the historic façade.
