Westzanerdijk 3581507 AR ZaandamWestzanerdijk

Living in what is perhaps the very most beautiful spot in Zaandam! This charming semi-detached house is situated on the distinctive Westzanerdijk, in a truly special location. Here you can enjoy a wonderfully free lifestyle, right by the water and with a fantastic view over the vast Westzijderveld. A green and peaceful residential area, whilst the centre of Zaandam is surprisingly close by. From the dyke, we take the steps down to where the house is tucked away behind the greenery. Through the hall, we enter the living room. This is approximately seven metres long and enjoys plenty of natural light thanks to the bay window at the front and the generous windows at the rear. Those windows immediately reveal what makes this house so special: the unobstructed views over the water and the meadows. The living room has a pleasant, homely atmosphere and offers plenty of space for both a comfortable seating area and a large dining table. Wherever you sit, the greenery is always close by. At the rear is the recently fitted kitchen, which is fully electric and equipped with an induction hob, combi-oven, boiling water tap and plenty of worktop and storage space. Adjacent to this is the practical utility room with connections for the washing machine and tumble dryer. Step out into the garden through the sliding doors, where you’ll discover the absolute highlight of this property. The garden borders directly on the water and offers endless views across the green polder landscape. A place where you can wake up peacefully in the morning with a cup of coffee, watch birds flying across the fields, and enjoy a different view every day. This is the kind of outdoor living you rarely find with a town just round the corner. The location is also particularly appealing for boating enthusiasts. From the back garden, you can sail straight into the Westzijderveld. Via the surrounding canals and locks, you can also continue towards the Zaan and the North Sea Canal, and from there even as far as Amsterdam. Grab your canoe, SUP or boat and explore the Zaan region from the water. There are four bedrooms on the first floor. The bedroom at the rear is a lovely master bedroom, where you can once again enjoy the sweeping views across the meadows. Waking up to this panorama is something you’ll never tire of. The other rooms are ideal as children’s bedrooms, guest rooms or studies. The bathroom is also on this floor, complete with a shower, washbasin and second toilet. As an added bonus, the property features a lovely office space above the utility room. An ideal spot for working from home in peace, with that fantastic view of the countryside once again. It makes even a working day feel a lot more pleasant. In short: a charming semi-detached house with four bedrooms – one of which is currently used as a study – a garden overlooking the waterway and a view that never fails to impress.

On one side, you live right next to the historic Westzijderveld: a vast area of peat meadows with wide ditches, reed beds, meadow birds and an almost endless view. From the house, you can easily seek out peace and nature, whether you fancy walking, cycling, boating, canoeing or stand-up paddleboarding. The characteristic Westzanerdijk also forms a beautiful route through the typical Zaan landscape. On the other hand, city life is surprisingly close by. Both the railway station and the centre of Zaandam are just a five-minute cycle ride away.
