Area
The apartment is in a central location on Houthavenkade in Houthaven harbor. Once, this was one of the principal harbors in the world. Today it is a new, urban neighborhood surrounded by water and greenery.
The area is home to a range of trendy restaurants, eateries and shops. Hotspots such as restaurant Karaat, Pont 13, Restaurant Vessel and REM-island are a mere stone's throw away.
As is Waterplein (in front of Hotel Boat & Co), an ideal spot to enjoy the sunshine and the view of the water of Het IJ.
Houthaven border directly on Spaarndammerbuurt, an area with a large selection of restaurants, cozy eateries and grocery shops.

Layout
Double entrance, both at the front and the rear (by the square).
Private entrance from the square. Entrance hall with a restroom and space for a coat area.
The kitchen/lounge at the rear is exceptionally spacious, featuring a chef's island with a Quooker, induction cooker, dishwasher and range hood.
Ideal for entertaining and cooking and with plenty of room for a large dining table.
On the other side is a large fitted cupboard with the refrigerator, freezer and oven.
The kitchen/lounge overlooks the square of charming Houthaven, and in the future - the canal - which is yet to be built.
The kitchen/lounge connects to the outdoor space via French doors. The kitchen is a bright oasis, with large windows in the corners.
Passage to the expansive west-facing living room, showcasing the property's true eye-catcher, an enormous nearly 6-meter tall window and a view of the elegant open gallery surrounded by custom contemporary black steel finishes. The living room, spanning an amazing 45 sqm, is extremely bright due to its abundance of windows and its positioning.

The custom-made, beautiful and robust steel staircase leads to the first floor. This level includes two good-sized bedrooms facing the square, the generous master bedroom has a convenient walk-in closet section with room for a wardrobe.
Both bedrooms are fitted with large sliding glass doors, again allowing daylight to stream in and creating an excellent indoor-outdoor flow. The bedrooms also offer a view of the square and the future canal.
The bathroom is extremely spacious and fully-equipped, with a walk-in shower, bathtub, double vanity and a second toilet. This level also includes a storage room with the laundry station.

The stunning open gallery at the front of the first floor overlooks the water of De Nieuwe Houthaven. This space can be configured to taste. A place to relax and enjoy the setting sun, or a study? The choice is yours!
