UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY ON THE RINGVAART!
Living in an industrial heritage building? That is possible in this apartment in the former grain silo at Leimuiderdijk 238.
The property was purchased in 2002, after which a design was created for the renovation, enabling living and working by installing mezzanine floors. In 2005, the iconic building won the first Architecture Prize of Haarlemmermeer. Much in the building is reminiscent of the past.
The apartment features a spacious living room with an open kitchen, two large bedrooms, a bathroom, and a lovely sunny southeast-facing terrace with a panoramic view of the Ringvaart, the Westeinderplassen, and the surrounding farmlands. Thick steel beams run through the apartment, which is one of the former compartments where grain was stored.
The property is situated on the Ringvaart of Haarlemmermeer and, thanks to the open waterway connection to the Braassemermeer and Westeinderplassen, is ideal for water sports enthusiasts. Shops, schools, and sports facilities are located in the surrounding villages such as Nieuw-Vennep, Leimuiden, Rijsenhout, or Kudelstaart. The arterial roads to Amsterdam, Leiden, The Hague, and Schiphol are easily accessible.
