GROENHOVEN | 110 SQM | FULLY RENOVATED | LOFT-STYLE LIVING | PERPETUAL LEASEHOLD PAID OFF A truly distinctive apartment for those who appreciate architecture, space, and tranquility. Following a planned and fully budgeted sustainability upgrade, the property will achieve an Energy Label B within the coming year, including new window frames and triple glazing. Located within the iconic Groenhoven complex, designed by architect Joop van Stigt, this fully renovated apartment of approximately 110 sqm seamlessly combines brutalist architecture, premium materials, and a unique green setting. What immediately stands out is the loft-like character of the home. The exposed concrete ceiling creates a striking contrast with the warm bamboo finishes, terrazzo bathroom, and the lush greenery surrounding the building. Large windows on both sides flood the apartment with natural light throughout the day. While many Amsterdam apartments overlook neighboring buildings, almost every room here enjoys views of mature trees, landscaped courtyards, and the surrounding Groenhoven grounds. Thanks to its unique position within the complex—as the rearmost tower—and the established greenery around the building, there is virtually no direct overlooking from neighbors. The expansive glass façades therefore offer a rare combination of openness, light, and privacy. LOFT LIVING – ARCHITECTURE – GREEN SURROUNDINGS – PRIVACY – METRO WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE Location Groenhoven is situated on the edge of the Bijlmerweide, one of Amsterdam’s largest and greenest natural areas, extending into the Diemerbos and Gaasperpark. From the complex, you can step directly into the park for a run, a walk, or a relaxing afternoon surrounded by nature. At the same time, shops, restaurants, sports facilities, and Ganzenhoef Metro Station are all within walking distance. From here, Amsterdam city centre can be reached in approximately 15 minutes. Major roads providing easy access to Schiphol Airport, Utrecht, Almere, and Amersfoort are also conveniently nearby. What makes this location exceptional is the combination of two worlds: the peace of living amidst nature and the connectivity of the city. Architecture Groenhoven was designed by architect Joop van Stigt and is widely regarded as one of Amsterdam’s most distinctive residential complexes. Its robust concrete structures, generous proportions, communal courtyard gardens, and strong connection to the surrounding landscape led to its designation as a municipal monument in 2021. The covered walkways, mature landscaping, and carefully designed sightlines give the complex a character that is rarely found in contemporary developments. Interior & Finishes The apartment underwent a complete renovation in 2022, with exceptional attention to materials and detailing. The use of bamboo, natural stone, bespoke cabinetry, and a calm, refined colour palette creates an interior that feels both warm and minimalist. The exposed concrete ceiling pays homage to the building’s original architecture and gives the home a distinctive identity. Every design choice has been executed consistently, resulting in a timeless and harmonious living environment. Layout The apartment is accessed via the complex’s characteristic covered walkways. Entrance Hall Spacious entrance hall with access to the separate toilet, storage/laundry room, and living area. Living Room The generous living room forms the heart of the home. Large windows on both sides provide an abundance of natural light and enhance the sense of space. Views consist of treetops, landscaped gardens, and greenery. One of the two balconies is accessed directly from the living room. Kitchen The open-plan kitchen with cooking island and integrated extraction system connects seamlessly to the living area, creating a natural space for cooking, working, or entertaining. Finished in bamboo, the kitchen is equipped with high-quality built-in appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher, steam oven, and fridge-freezer combination. Bathroom Centrally located, the bathroom is finished with large-format terrazzo tiles and features a freestanding solid-surface bathtub, spacious walk-in shower with integrated Hansgrohe RainSelect shower panel and multiple rainfall functions, double washbasin, and a second toilet. The carefully considered design, natural light, and unique sightlines make this a true space for relaxation. Bedroom Area The apartment currently offers one exceptionally spacious bedroom. Thanks to the efficient floor plan, the property can easily be reconfigured to accommodate two or even three bedrooms without sacrificing much of its open and airy character. The second balcony is accessed directly from the bedroom. Storage A private storage unit of approximately 6 sqm is located on the ground floor. Sustainability Upgrade Groenhoven is about to undergo an exceptional sustainability programme supported by more than €25 million in European funding. As part of this approved project, all window frames will be replaced with new sliding glass systems featuring triple glazing, the entire complex will be connected to Vattenfall’s district heating network, and additional sustainability measures—including solar panels for communal areas—will be implemented. As a result, the apartment will achieve an Energy Label B, while simultaneously improving living comfort and reducing energy costs. The works are scheduled to commence in August 2026 and will be professionally managed by an external project team coordinating all aspects of the upgrade. Building & Homeowners’ Association Groenhoven benefits from an active and financially healthy homeowners’ association (VvE). The complex is professionally managed and represents one of the most distinctive residential environments in Amsterdam-Zuidoost. Its municipal monument status, architectural significance, and approved sustainability programme make it not only a remarkable place to live, but also a future-proof investment.
