LOCATION Prinseneiland combines an almost village-like tranquillity with the energy of Amsterdam city centre. Haarlemmerdijk, Central Station, Westerpark and the Jordaan are all located nearby. The word “island” says a great deal about the atmosphere here: water is ever-present. Swimming in the Bickersgracht, boating through the city, picnicking in the communal gardens, visiting the petting zoo or taking a walk across the historic Galgenbrug can all easily become part of everyday life. The nearby Haarlemmerbuurt is known for its mix of independent boutiques, concept stores, bookshops, cafés and restaurants. The redeveloped harbour area also offers a variety of places to eat and drink on and around the waterfront. For cinema lovers there is the characteristic The Movies cinema, while a weekly organic market is held on Haarlemmerplein. The area around the Eenhoornsluis is also a popular spot for enjoying views across the water at the end of the day. NOTE The original timber beam structure forms an important part of the monumental character of the apartment. Due to their dark, authentic finish, the beams are a prominent feature of the interior. As the ceiling height beneath the beams is approximately 2.00 to 2.10 metres, a lighter finish to the beams could make a considerable difference to the spatial experience of the rooms.
