Description
This modern and comfortable residence is situated in a stylish new build complex located in the most diverse and popular neighborhood of Amsterdam North, merely a few minutes away from the ferry. This light filled ground floor apartment combines a high quality finish with a pleasant spatial feeling. The property includes two spacious bedrooms, a delightful outdoor space, multiple storage areas, and all the conveniences of sustainable and contemporary living. Thanks to the high ceilings, the generous living space, and the large window frames featuring an open kitchen with a bar, the home feels light, open, and inviting. The property is fully insulated, holds an A+++ energy label, and is equipped with floor heating, HR++ glass, and a heat and cold storage system that is adjustable per room. It is a move ready city home offering much comfort, a well maintained appearance, and a location in an attractive spot in the Overhoeks area.
The apartment is located on the ground floor of the complex named The Grid, which is part of the new build project Aan het IJ delivered in 2021. Upon entering the building, one immediately notices the well maintained and spacious central hall. This area has a luxurious yet warm appearance and offers fine facilities for residents, such as a parcel machine and seating areas. From here, there is also access to the communal inner garden. This is a generous green outdoor space where residents can relax and enjoy the afternoon sun. From the central hall, the apartment is situated on the left side.
Upon entering the home, you arrive in a spacious entrance hall with ample room for a coat rack and extra storage options. All rooms in the house are accessible from this hallway. What stands out immediately are the high ceilings, which provide a pleasant and exceptionally spacious feeling throughout the entire property.
The bathroom is generously designed and fitted with a spacious walk in shower, a towel radiator, and a double vanity unit. Additionally, the home features two very spacious bedrooms of comparable size. The second bedroom provides access to the outdoor space, where you can wonderfully enjoy the morning and early afternoon sun. Both bedrooms overlook the green garden strip surrounding the building. The adjacent Sausolitolaan has recently been finished with greenery and benches. Furthermore, there is one way traffic, making the street feel quiet and well maintained without experiencing nuisance. The double curtains in all rooms give the property a luxurious and homely atmosphere.
From the hall, you also reach the practical storage room containing the installations for the heat pump, the mechanical ventilation, and the heat and cold storage system. Here you will also find the connections for the washing machine and dryer, while sufficient space remains for extra storage. Additionally, the house has a separate toilet.
At the end of the hall is the generous living room. This light living area feels immediately comfortable and inviting due to the large windows and the pleasant amount of daylight. The spacious seating area offers plenty of possibilities for different layouts. The living room is also fitted with beautiful double curtains.
The open kitchen forms the heart of the space and has been expanded by the current owners with a stylish cooking island. This has created a practical and cozy living kitchen with plenty of work space, storage space, and contact with the living room. The kitchen is equipped with high quality Siemens built in appliances, including a hob, combi oven, extractor fan, and dishwasher. Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious utility room, ideal for extra supplies and storage space.
In the basement of the apartment complex, there is an additional private storage room of 6 square meters. This is ideal for storing bicycles, suitcases, tools, or other items you prefer not to keep in the home.
The Bundlaan is located in a recently developed part of Amsterdam North, near the IJ river. The environment has a modern and spacious layout with contemporary residential buildings, wide streets, lots of greenery, and water in the immediate vicinity. The Bundlaan and the adjacent Sausolitolaan are quiet streets with one way traffic, lots of greenery, and an atmospheric layout with planters and benches. This ensures an open and fresh atmosphere, while the neighborhood simultaneously feels quiet and well maintained.
Overhoeks is a beloved and dynamic neighborhood where living, art, culture, and urban comfort come together. Within walking distance, you will find the Eye Filmmuseum, the A'DAM Tower, Stretch and Fold, and the Tolhuistuin. There are also various fine eateries in the area, such as Cafe Kepler, Vindict wine bar, Pollie Goudvis, Moon, and Nous coffee bar. The atmosphere is relaxed and international, with a pleasant mix of young professionals, students, and families.
For daily facilities, you are also in a good place here. Supermarkets such as Odin and Albert Heijn, shops, several primary schools, childcare, sports facilities such as Het Gymlokaal and Yogastudio Equal, and recreational opportunities on the water are all located in the immediate surroundings.
One of the major advantages of this location is the excellent accessibility. The free ferry from Buiksloterweg is just a few minutes walk away and sails 24 hours a day to Amsterdam Central. The crossing takes only a few minutes and is accessible to pedestrians, cyclists, mopeds, scooters, scoot mobiles, cargo bikes, and step scooters. This means you are in the city center in no time, without traffic jams or parking stress.
Furthermore, metro station North, line 52, is about 10 minutes by bike or a short distance by bus. The North South line offers a direct connection to Amsterdam Central, the city center, the Zuidas, and South Station. Amsterdam Central is also quickly accessible by bike. There are also several bus lines in the area, and the Ring A10 is easily accessible via the nearby highways.
The property is located on municipal leasehold ground. The current leasehold period runs until and including August 31, 2068, and the canon for this period has been paid off. For the period after that, the switch to perpetual leasehold has been fixed under favorable conditions.
The property is part of a healthy and active Owners Association known as VvE Woongebouw The Grid. Management is professionally provided by Sturm & de Neeve. Meetings are held periodically and the VvE has a multi year maintenance plan. The monthly contribution is 217.52 euros.
In summary, this residence offers a living area of approximately 113 square meters conforming to NEN 2580, located in complex The Grid which was delivered in 2021. It is high quality finished and excellently maintained, fully insulated with an Energy Label A+++, and features HR++ glass. There is an option to rent or buy a parking space within the VvE. The home has floor heating and heat and cold storage, adjustable per room. The high ceilings and abundant light entry make it a special place. It has two spacious bedrooms and a fine outdoor space with morning sun and early afternoon sun. The extra private storage of 6 square meters in the basement is a great asset. The communal garden offers afternoon sun, and the VvE contribution is reasonable at 217.52 euros per month. The leasehold is paid off until 2068, after which it is favorably fixed. Delivery is in consultation, and the choice of notary is up to the buyer, provided the purchase deed conforms to the Ring Model and is in Amsterdam.
