***Architecturally designed, very large and bright townhouse from 2008 with a gross floor area of 299 m². With a deep northwest-facing garden, located on the beloved Steigereiland Zuid on a relatively large plot. ***
The garden offers afternoon and evening sun. The house has four bedrooms plus a multifunctional downstairs space that can also be used as bedrooms or a practice room. It is a playful house, designed in split-level, with high ceilings that create a very spacious and bright atmosphere.
The ceiling height in the living room is about four meters, and you can look all the way up, almost 10 meters high. The house stands free, so there are no contact noises. The ceiling height in the downstairs workroom (about 29 m²) is 1.95 meters, which is why it is not included in the usable floor space, but it offers many extra possibilities.
The house is energy-efficient (Energy Label A) and equipped with underfloor heating in all rooms. The house features a geothermal heat pump, which was renewed in 2023. Therefore, you don’t need to pay for district heating or gas; the house generates its own energy. In 2024, the house was refreshed, with the facades replastered and painted, floors renewed or repaired, and the interior fully painted. It’s move-in ready. The transition to perpetual leasehold under favorable conditions has already been made.
LOCATION:
Steigereiland has a highly varied street scene with lots of creativity, partly due to the variety in free-standing buildings. Detached houses, linked homes, 2-, 3-, and 4-story houses, homes by the water, spacious gardens, inner streets; everything can be found here. Nearby, within walking distance, are a primary school, a playground, a music school, a sailing school, a small neighborhood store, various daycares, a restaurant, and a theater. The Diemerpark, one of the largest city parks in Amsterdam, is also within walking distance. Here, you’ll find a soccer and field hockey club. Less than 5 minutes by bike from Steigereiland is a lovely small beach in this park, perfect for swimming and sunbathing in the summer. For a larger beach with full facilities, you can bike a bit further east to the city beach, where you’ll find various restaurants, a surf school, and ample parking.
Additionally, you’ll find a wider variety of shops and specialty stores (butcher, fishmonger, bakery, etc.), as well as a beauty salon, a shoemaker, and a convenience store. Thanks to the new bike bridge over the Amsterdam-Rhine Canal, the city center is easily accessible by bike. Tram 26 takes you to Central Station in fifteen minutes, and the A10 ring road is easily accessible.
