Spacious Family Home with Panoramic Polder Views and Waterfront Garden
Key Features
Description
This well-maintained family residence is located on De Hoorn in the Molenbuurt area of Amstelveen, situated at the edge of the Middenhoven district. The property offers residents the opportunity to wake up each morning to a sweeping view over the Bovenkerkerpolder, providing a sense of tranquility and spaciousness that is increasingly rare in the Amsterdam metropolitan area.
The Bovenkerkerpolder is a protected rural area recognized for its natural beauty, open landscape, and cultural historical significance. The area has been designated as a quiet zone and is renowned for its large population of meadow birds. The local municipality has made a deliberate decision not to develop this area, which means the unobstructed view from the property is guaranteed to remain permanent.
The house was built in 1988 and features a cross roof construction. It is classified as a townhouse in a semi-detached configuration. The total living area measures 150 square meters, while the plot covers 173 square meters. The property has a volume of 569 cubic meters. Additional indoor space of 16 square meters is available, likely in the garage area.
The ground floor can be entered either through the main front door or via the garage, which has its own practical side entrance in addition to the main garage door. The entrance hall contains the meter cupboard and leads to a hallway with a coat area, a guest toilet, and the staircase to the upper floors.
The living room is oriented towards the garden, making it a bright and airy space. It is equipped with a pellet stove installed in 2016 and features two sliding doors that open directly onto the rear garden. This design effectively extends the living space into the outdoor area during warmer months.
The kitchen is arranged in a half-open configuration with a U-shaped layout. It comes fitted with various built-in appliances including an induction cooktop with a wok burner, an extractor hood, a refrigerator, a dishwasher, a combination microwave oven, and a close-in boiler for instant hot water.
The rear garden faces south and covers an area of 77 square meters, measuring 7 meters in depth and approximately 11 meters in width. The garden includes a terrace adjacent to the house and a second atmospheric terrace situated directly by the water. The terrace by the water was renewed in 2025. The exterior of the property was painted in 2024.
The first floor is accessed via the staircase and features a landing that provides access to three spacious bedrooms. One bedroom is located at the front of the house, while two are situated at the rear. The modern bathroom on this floor is equipped with a walk-in shower, a toilet, and a double vanity unit with a cabinet. The bathroom also has underfloor heating for added comfort.
The second floor contains a landing with an installation room that includes a utility sink. A spacious walk-in closet is also located on this level. Two additional bedrooms are found here, both benefiting from extra natural light thanks to the cross roof design. Each of these bedrooms has storage space on both sides, providing practical solutions for organizing belongings.
In total, the property offers six rooms, of which five serve as bedrooms. This makes the house particularly suitable for families with multiple children or those who require home office space.
The property comes with an attached brick garage with capacity for one vehicle. The garage features an electrically operated door, electrical connections, and running water. An electric vehicle charging point is installed on the private driveway next to the garage.
The house holds an energy label A rating, indicating good energy efficiency. It has full insulation throughout. The heating system consists of a gas-fired combi boiler, specifically an Intergas Kombi HR 107 installed in 2017, which is owned rather than rented. The property is also equipped with 14 solar panels, further contributing to energy savings.
