LAYOUT GROUND FLOOR You enter through the front garden and your private entrance. The spacious hallway includes a cloakroom area and a separate toilet. At the rear is the bright and inviting living room with large glass sliding doors opening directly onto the water, a rarity in Amsterdam! Here you can enjoy the view all day: the water, the passing ferry, and boats gliding by. There is already a mooring for a sloop or small boat, and with the addition of a private dock you can expand your outdoor space by approx. 6 m² (quotation and VvE approval already in place; municipal permit still to be applied for). Between the seating area and the kitchen there’s room for a large dining table, the perfect spot for family dinners or entertaining friends. The kitchen at the front is sleek and modern, fitted with a BORA cooktop, dishwasher, combi-oven, and fridge-freezer. From the kitchen you also have direct access to the garden, creating a lovely connection to the outdoors. FIRST FLOOR Upstairs you’ll find three bright, well-proportioned bedrooms, all with large windows and views of either the water or greenery. The master bedroom at the front features a spacious built-in wardrobe. The two bedrooms at the rear overlook the water and are ideal as children’s rooms, guest rooms, or home offices. The stylish bathroom is finished with walnut cabinetry, a large walk-in shower, vanity unit, toilet, and marble accents. A separate utility/storage room offers space for a washing machine and dryer plus extra storage. The entire apartment is equipped with underfloor heating and cooling. SURROUNDINGS Everything on Libau-eiland reflects the history of the old timber warehouses: wooden façades, sloping roofs, and natural tones of grey and brown evoke the past of the Houthavens. The architecture creates an intimate feel while still offering expansive views over the water and sky. Living here means small-scale charm combined with urban appeal. In summer you can swim or paddleboard straight from your street, truly unique in Amsterdam! The neighbourhood is just 2 km from Amsterdam Central Station, between the Spaarndammerbuurt and the IJ. Within walking distance are the lively Spaarndammerstraat, Westerpark, and Haarlemmerdijk with a wide range of shops, gyms, and restaurants. The district itself also offers waterside dining at places like Restaurant Vessel, Brasserie George, and Ferry. With Westerpark and the Jordaan nearby, and the ferry taking you quickly across to trendy Amsterdam-Noord, you’ll never run out of places to explore.
