***Now for Sale! Spacious, Stylish Family Home (5 bedrooms, 214m²) Directly on the Water with Private Mooring on Stettineiland.***
This house features three terraces where you can enjoy the sun at any time of the day. Whether having breakfast, dinner, or reading a good book, relaxation is guaranteed. Your children can play with peers outside while you unwind with a drink and a snack, reflecting on the week in front of your home. For older children, this area offers plenty of activities. Every day feels like a mini-vacation. There are no cars or scooters around as it’s a pedestrian-only area. The green island boasts oases of flower boxes with wisteria and other climbing plants, wildflowers, and beautiful specimens planted by the residents. Children can sail and swim in the wide canal behind the house. From a private staircase off the terrace, you can step into your boat and set sail. Where else in Amsterdam can you find this?
Stettineiland is a spacious, child-friendly island in the Houthavens where motorized traffic is prohibited. Bridges exclusively for cyclists and pedestrians connect the islands. The city is nearby, the IJ is around the corner, and you can go in any direction from here.
This stately family home is luxuriously finished with large, generous living spaces. All bedrooms are 20 m² or larger. The bathrooms are very spacious and comfortable, and the high ceilings add extra grandeur to the house. The delightful waterside terrace offers late afternoon and evening sun for a relaxing drink. The child-friendly environment is safe and close to the city center. The house was designed by Roy Gelders Architecten and is stylishly built in a 1930s style with many charming details and a nod to the adjacent Spaarndammerbuurt. The partial corner location is ideal with windows on the side, providing plenty of light and a clear view from the rooftop terrace. In the basement, you can easily create a studio for an au pair with a private bathroom. Right outside the basement door is your own parking space.
A major advantage of this property is the low ground lease (five times lower than surrounding islands), energy label A, underfloor heating and cooling, solar panels, and air conditioning in the living room and the bedrooms on the first and second floors (easily extendable to the basement and attic). The three generous outdoor spaces include the very private rooftop terrace, a waterside terrace with a mooring for the boat, and a front and side garden. There is always a sunny spot to sit at any time of the day.
And there’s more. Are you looking for a stylish, spacious family home in a beautiful area near the center with all amenities? Then this house is for you.
