Description
Beautifully renovated semi-detached dike house with exceptional design elements, offering an exceptional mix of tranquillity, light and wide-open views situated on the much-loved Schellingwouderdijk, Amsterdam. To the front you overlook the Amsterdam harbour; at the back, the 'polder' stretches out towards the Schellingwouderbreekpark. A unique location where nature and city meet situated in a friendly, international neighbourhood with local events, picnics and regular garden gatherings.
The house is ideal for a couple, even with one or two children, or for residents who enjoy having guests. The neighborhood is very chikd friendly and enjoys many young international families.
The property is exceptionally well connected: the GVB F2 ferry from IJplein to Amsterdam Centraal Station takes just 5 minutes, runs daily until midnight, and is completely free of charge. The ferry stop is a short walk from the front door — a connection that Google Maps does not always show, but which makes this address far more central than it might first appear.
Available from early to mid-March till mid August, the best possible period to enjoy this space.
