LIVING IN THE SPAARNDAMMERBUURT, WITH WESTERPARK JUST AROUND THE CORNER! Situated in a lovely spot in the popular Spaarndammerbuurt neighbourhood, this well-maintained former three-room apartment offers a surprisingly bright and comfortable home. The property features a spacious living room, a modern kitchen, a generously sized bedroom with a luxurious en-suite bathroom, a balcony at the quiet rear and a private storage unit on the fourth floor. The original second bedroom has been incorporated into the living room and is currently used as a cosy dining area with a dedicated workspace. This has created a wonderfully spacious living area with plenty of natural light from both the front and rear. Would you prefer to have two bedrooms? No problem! The original layout can be restored relatively easily. An alternative floor plan is available to illustrate this option. Another great feature is that the bathroom and toilet were completely renovated in 2023 and finished in a sleek, modern style. And then there is the location. You will be living right in the heart of the Spaarndammerbuurt, surrounded by charming shops, coffee bars and restaurants. Westerpark is just a stone's throw away, while Haarlemmerstraat, the Jordaan and the Houthavens are also within easy reach. LOCATION The property is located on the quieter section of Spaarndammerstraat, in a lively Amsterdam neighbourhood known for its beautiful architecture, greenery and growing selection of great places to eat, drink and shop. Westerpark and the Westergasterrein are within walking distance. Here you will find places such as Cantine de Caron, Fabrique des Lumières and Het Ketelhuis cinema. Spaarndammerstraat itself also has plenty to offer, including popular spots such as Dignita, Café Restaurant Moos, De Walvis and Compartir. For your daily groceries, you can choose from Albert Heijn, Jumbo and various speciality shops nearby. Fancy heading into the city? Haarlemmerstraat and the Jordaan are just a few minutes away by bike, while the Houthavens are also close by. On warm days, the swimming jetty along the IJ is a wonderful place to cool off.

First floor Entrance to the apartment with hallway and practical wardrobe cupboard. The hallway also provides access to the toilet, which was renovated in 2023 and features marble-look tiles, a wall-mounted toilet and a small washbasin. The light oak-look laminate flooring runs throughout the apartment and, together with the black details and doors, creates a calm and contemporary atmosphere. At the rear is the living room with adjoining open-plan kitchen. The kitchen has a practical corner layout and is equipped with a dishwasher, fridge-freezer combination, combination microwave oven, induction hob and extractor hood. From the living room, you can step straight onto the balcony. This is a peaceful outdoor space at the rear of the apartment, overlooking the greenery of the communal courtyard gardens. At the front is the former second bedroom. This room has been incorporated into the living room and is currently arranged as a cosy dining area with a separate workspace. Thanks to the large windows and double doors opening onto the French balcony, this space receives plenty of natural daylight. Would you prefer a second bedroom? The original layout can be restored relatively easily. Please refer to the alternative floor plan for an example of how this could be arranged. The spacious bedroom at the front overlooks the greenery. Directly from the bedroom, you enter the luxurious bathroom, which was completely renovated in 2023. The bathroom has stylish marble-look finishes and features a vanity unit, designer radiator, spacious walk-in shower with drain and rain shower, as well as a heated and illuminated mirror. Behind the sliding doors, there is also a practical laundry area. Fourth floor A private storage unit is located on the fourth floor, ideal for storing items that you do not need on a daily basis. SPAARNDAMMERBUURT The Spaarndammerbuurt is one of those neighbourhoods with a truly distinctive character. Originally built as an Amsterdam working-class neighbourhood for people working in the nearby Houthavens, it has evolved into a popular residential area offering a great mix of history, greenery and urban charm. The neighbourhood is particularly well known for its distinctive Amsterdam School architecture. The best-known example is Het Schip on Spaarndammerplantsoen, designed by Michel de Klerk and now home to a museum. The characteristic architecture, Westerpark just around the corner and the many cafés, restaurants and shops make this a wonderful place to live. HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATION The Homeowners' Association (VvE) ‘Houtmankade 310 through 324 (even numbers) and Spaarndammerstraat 2 through 16 (even numbers), Amsterdam’ is active. The property is professionally managed by Ymere VvE Beheer. General meetings are held annually, and both a Long-Term Maintenance Plan (MJOP) and House Rules are in place. The complex was legally divided into apartment rights in 2006. This apartment right represents a 60/3,681 share in the community. The service charges amounted to €139 per month in 2025. During the past year, the service charges were temporarily increased to €235 per month due to major maintenance work to the flue gas outlets of the central heating boilers, exterior wall plasterwork and sustainability plans.
