Monnikskapstraat 661032 LM AmsterdamBuiksloterham-Noord

Exceptionally Located, Unique and Spacious Live/Work House on One of the Most Beautiful Streets in Amsterdam-Noord, Including a Beautifully Maintained Second Home on Kaasjeskruidstraat This unique property was custom-built in 2019/2020 under architectural supervision by the current owners and is now offered for sale as one combined object, including two private parking spaces on site. The house on Monnikskapstraat comprises no fewer than four generously sized floors and two accessible rooftops. Concerned about climbing stairs? No problem: the house is prepared for this with a lift shaft, ready for the installation of a platform lift. On the ground floor, there is a studio/practice space and a separate studio apartment with its own entrance. The first floor features two bedrooms, a utility room and a roof garden. The second floor has two more bedrooms and a bathroom. The third floor offers a bright, spacious living room with panoramic views, a southwest-facing balcony, and an open kitchen. The roof provides the option of creating a large rooftop garden. The property overlooks Papaverpark and the adjacent canal. The house on Kaasjeskruidstraat includes two bedrooms and offers the potential to be extended with an additional floor. This is an ideal home for those looking to combine living and working, or for people seeking new ways of co-living. Think of multiple families or generations with varying levels of independence—a perfect solution in times of housing shortages and the growing need for family care. The neighborhood is home to many families and live/work households. The property also provides an income opportunity: the current owners run a successful B&B here. The entire house is built from CLT (cross-laminated timber, or solid wood) and insulated with wood fiber. The façades are clad in highly durable untreated Louro Gamela. Interior walls are finished with white plaster to maximize light. Inside, the CLT walls are partly treated with UV protection to retain their light color, and partly finished with clay plaster (like the timber walls, vapour-permeable). Everything has been built with the future in mind. While the underfloor heating is currently connected to district heating, the installation is suitable for a geothermal heat pump. Roof space has been prepared for solar panels. All roofs are either equipped with roof gardens or can be fitted with them (for extra insulation, delayed water drainage, and summer cooling). In the Kaasjeskruidstraat house, shower water is heated by a heat pump boiler. Here you can experience living and working in a truly unique way—spacious, bright, sustainable, flexible and social—just a stone’s throw from Amsterdam Central Station.

Location & Surroundings Buiksloterham in Amsterdam-Noord is transforming from an industrial business area into a sustainable, circular urban district for both living and working. Residents, businesses, institutions and the municipality of Amsterdam collaborate on themes such as energy, resource efficiency, reuse, climate adaptation and sustainable mobility. Alongside traditional industry, the area is now home to designers, architects and other creative pioneers. Within Buiksloterham, Monnikskapstraat and the adjacent streets are particularly special: here, pioneering residents built their live/work houses to their own vision. The result is a unique, vibrant, and social neighborhood with a lively exchange of ideas, a co-maintained natural park, swimming in the canal, children playing outdoors, spontaneous conversations with neighbors. Nearby is the NDSM wharf, a former shipyard now transformed into an exciting cultural hotspot with artists’ initiatives and innovative companies. Restaurants are within walking distance. A supermarket and new hospitality venues are also under development. The Van der Pek neighborhood, with its market and many restaurants, is just five minutes away by bike. Accessibility The three ferry routes—Buiksloterweg, Distelweg and NDSM—are just 5–10 minutes away by bike, providing easy access to Central Station and the rest of the city. The A10 ring road is also nearby. The Noorderpark metro station (North-South Line) can be reached by bike or bus in 10 minutes, taking you to the Zuidas business district in under half an hour—without a car and without the hassle!
