APARTMENT ON FREEHOLD LAND WITH AN ELEVATOR IN THE HEART OF AMSTERDAM What a dream: typically Amsterdam living in a wonderfully quiet and beautiful location on Uilenburg Island. You live here on the 2nd floor of a former VOC warehouse, which today serves as a small-scale apartment complex. The apartment features a high beamed ceiling and overlooks the shared courtyard garden and the Uilenburger canal, making it an exceptionally quiet and peaceful place to live—especially considering its location in the very heart of the city! The apartment is built on freehold land, meaning full ownership with no leasehold, and it is equipped with an elevator, making it easily accessible, also for elderly residents who wish to live in the city center. An Albert Heijn and Jumbo supermarket are just around the corner. This 2-room apartment offers a spacious living room with an open kitchen and balcony, one large bedroom, and a modern bathroom. The rich history of this listed national monument is still clearly visible throughout the home. Beautiful original wooden beams can be seen, and the view over the Uilenburger canal is priceless.
