Surroundings
The home is located on the picturesque Oudezijds Voorburgwal next to the historic Agnietenkapel and Oudemannenhuispoort, right in the center of Amsterdam. Yet, the area is surprisingly peaceful, partly because it is only accessible to local traffic between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. Within walking distance are Dam Square, Central Station, De Bijenkorf, Nieuwmarkt, and various museums, shops, cafés, and restaurants. The neighborhood has a strong sense of community, with regular social gatherings, multiple playgrounds, primary schools, and childcare centers nearby.
Accessibility
The property is extremely well-connected. The North-South metro line (Rokin and Dam stops) is just around the corner, offering quick access to both Central Station and Station Zuid. Several trams (4, 13, 14, and 17) also stop nearby. The IJ Tunnel provides quick access out of the city. Parking is available through the permit system – including in the underground garage at Rokin.
