Architecture & surroundings Edward Wrightstraat is a distinctive street within Steigereiland Zuid, known for its architecturally varied, individually designed homes with a strong focus on light, space, and views. Many houses here are true architect designed villas, playing with multifunctional spaces and spectacular natural light. The location offers: - Views of water, greenery, and Diemerpark (IJmeer and surroundings) - Several parks within walking distance - Peace, space, and a unique sense of freedom within the city - A residential street with a limited number of homes; quiet, spacious, and recently built. - Children can play freely on the dike and in the street - The cosy café restaurant theatre Vrijburcht at the other end of Steigereiland - Cycling distance to Amsterdam city centre, with excellent public transport connections - Close to the marina, shops, restaurants, primary and secondary schools, and sports clubs Ground lease The current owner has made a substantial investment by buying off the ground lease in perpetuity. As the owner of this property, you will never pay ground lease again. A typical annual ground lease for comparable homes in this area is around eight thousand euros, indexed yearly for inflation. Such an amount would significantly increase your monthly costs and limit financing options. The perpetual buy off therefore offers major long term financial security for the owner of this villa. Sustainability With solar panels, a geothermal heat pump, and energy label A+++, this home is fully future ready. In 2023, 13 solar panels of 400Wp were installed, with 23 years of factory warranty remaining. This is a larger than average installation – which is usually sufficient for a large family and an electric car. The home is completely gas free, and the low energy costs (approx. €100/month for the current owner) make it exceptionally sustainable. Versatile use This home is also ideal for those who want multifunctional use—just like other houses on the street that partly function as offices, studios, or ateliers. The possibilities are extensive. You can think of: Large family home Working from home (two entrances available) Bed & breakfast/rental opportunities Multi generational living or care accommodation Practice at home, workshop space, music or art studio In short A spacious, light filled, architecturally distinctive, and highly versatile villa on the water, in perhaps the most beautiful location of IJburg. With perpetual ground lease bought off, sustainable installations, a garden and large roof terrace, studio, and an open view that makes you feel like you’re living outdoors - yet still within the city.
