Grasweg 21-A1031 HW AmsterdamBuiksloterham-Zuid

A unique opportunity to live spaciously and comfortably on the water, right in the heart of one of Amsterdam’s most exciting neighborhoods! This surprisingly bright home offers exceptional living space and a huge waterside garden with a sunny terrace, a large shed, a covered bike shed, a sauna, and plenty of privacy—everything you need for fantastic waterside living. A stylish kitchen with a cooking island, a sun-drenched terrace directly connected to the living room, space for a beamer for cozy movie nights, or a refreshing swim in the water on warm days. Next to the houseboat on the waterside is a solid concrete jetty where you can moor your boat. The hull, built by the renowned shipyard De Blauwe Wimpel, measures 18.00 by 5.70 meters. The houseboat currently consists of two fully equipped living units with a total living area of no less than 173 m² (NEN measured). Ideal for families, people working from home, those who’d like to offer a young adult their own space, or anyone interested in renting out part of the property. Amsterdam-Noord in transformation This water home is located in a rapidly developing area, close to the IJ and surrounded by creative hotspots! Amsterdam-Noord is known for its energy and contrasts: traditional working-class neighborhoods merge with modern architecture and cultural landmarks. The former industrial NDSM shipyard has become a hub for artists and festivals, while new cafés and creative businesses are springing up quickly along the IJ. The ferries will take you to Amsterdam Central Station in just 15 minutes, and the North/South metro line provides excellent access to the rest of the city. The A10 ring road is nearby, as are schools and amenities at all levels. Layout The upper floor serves as the main living area. The spacious living room features an epoxy cast floor, a characteristic beamed ceiling, and an open-plan kitchen with a cooking island. For cooking enthusiasts, this is a true paradise: there’s a 6-burner Boretti stove with an extra-wide oven. Large sliding doors open directly onto the sunny terrace. Also on this floor is a second smaller living room with its own kitchen, plus a guest toilet. The ground floor offers four bedrooms, including a very spacious one that can easily be extended with a work area or walk-in closet. There are two bathrooms: one with a bathtub, shower, toilet, and washbasin unit, and a second with a shower, toilet, and washbasin. Features and sustainability The property is built with low-maintenance materials. The façades are clad with insulated synthetic siding. Plastic window frames with HR++ double glazing and a well-insulated roof (14 cm PIR panels, bitumen, Trespa finish) contribute to energy label B.
