Description
Affordable, Detached Living Just 20 Minutes from Amsterdam
Located on the water with a private dock for your boat, a sunny south-facing backyard, and a 22m² outbuilding with French doors opening directly onto the water.
This property consists of a main house of 64m² and an outbuilding of 22m².
Ground Floor – 49m²:
Spacious entrance hall with tiled floor, coat rack, toilet, and door to the sunny living room.
Bright living room with two front-facing windows and a large window overlooking the garden. The window frames have recently been replaced with tilt-and-turn HR++ glass, maintaining the home’s classic charm.
The living room features an original fireplace with a flue that could accommodate a wood-burning stove.
The ceiling still has its original beams with decorative details, and the floor is laid with wide oak planks.
Semi-open country-style kitchen, fitting the character of the house, arranged in an L-shape under a garden-facing window. The kitchen is equipped with all essential built-in appliances and has a separate storage room for pantry items.
The utility room houses the washing machine, dryer, and central heating boiler. From the kitchen, you can access the sunny backyard.
First Floor – 19m²:
Upstairs is a spacious bedroom with a dormer window. There are built-in wardrobes, and a work area has been created at the front. From here, you have an open view of the street, as there is no building directly opposite the house.
The compact bathroom includes a shower cabin, wall-mounted toilet, and washbasin.
Before the current owner purchased the property, there were two bedrooms here. It is possible to add another dormer window if more space is desired.
Backyard – approx. 84m², including rear access:
Beautifully landscaped garden with plant borders, a sheltered terrace adjacent to the house, a sunshade, storage cabinets for garden tools, and a hardwood dock spanning the full width of the property.
Both the waterfront retaining wall and the dock have been completely renewed recently.
You can swim here or moor a boat up to approx. 8 meters in length. From here, you can sail directly into the scenic Waterland area via several routes or head to the IJsselmeer.
Outbuilding – 22m²:
The former shed, built in traditional Waterland style, is insulated and equipped with heating, electricity, and water.
It has a loft, a private entrance from the alley, and French doors opening to the dock. You do not need to pass through the main house to access it.
This space offers versatile use—perfect for secure bicycle storage, a hobby room, studio, workspace, or home office.
While the building’s quality suggests it could serve as living space, the municipality does not classify it as such. You are not permitted to live here or operate a B&B.

The bus stop is at the end of the street and takes you to Amsterdam city center in 20 minutes.
You can also sail directly from your garden with your own boat to the IJsselmeer or along the Ringvaart. An ideal location!
