Spacious corner apartment with parking on IJburglaan
Key Features
Description
The apartment complex De Uitkijk is situated on a unique location along the well known IJburglaan in Amsterdam. This residential building was constructed in 2006 and is located on the corner of Haveneiland West in the Rieteilanden West area of IJburg. The complex houses an apartment with approximately 108 square meters of living space, positioned on the third floor of the building. The living area has been measured according to the NEN 2580 measurement standard, which ensures accuracy and comparability with other properties.
Upon entering the building through the neat entrance with intercom system, residents have access to an elevator that leads to the third floor where this apartment is located. The presence of an elevator makes the third floor easily accessible for all residents, including those with mobility considerations or when moving furniture and heavy items. The hallway at the entrance of the apartment provides access to various rooms in the residence. The apartment features two well sized bedrooms that offer ample space for different living arrangements, a separate toilet room with a small sink, and a bathroom equipped with a shower, hanging toilet, and washbasin.
The spacious living room has large window sections that provide plenty of natural light throughout the day and offer an iconic view of the IJburglaan. The open kitchen is fitted with a four burner induction cooktop, exhaust hood, combination oven, and a refrigerator with freezer compartment. The kitchen layout is designed to be practical and functional for daily cooking activities. Additionally, there is an internal storage room with a connection for the washing machine, which helps keep the living areas clean and organized.
The apartment building is situated directly adjacent to water at the rear side, which adds to the attractive living environment. The property has an energy label A, indicating that it meets high standards of energy efficiency. The building features comprehensive insulation including roof insulation, double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation. The building is connected to city heating for both space heating and hot water, making it a gas free residence. This type of heating system is not only environmentally friendly but also provides consistent and reliable warmth throughout the year.
Residents of this apartment also have access to an external storage room measuring 6.5 square meters according to the NEN 2580 measurement report and a private parking space in the underground garage beneath the complex. Having a dedicated parking space in Amsterdam is a significant advantage, as parking in the city can be challenging and expensive. The external storage room provides additional space for items that do not need to be kept inside the apartment, such as bicycles, seasonal items, or sports equipment.
The ground lease for this property has been perpetually paid off, which means there are no recurring ground lease costs for the future owner. This is an important financial consideration in Amsterdam, where many properties still have ongoing ground lease obligations that can add significantly to the monthly housing costs. The perpetually paid off status provides certainty and predictability for the long term ownership costs.
The monthly contribution to the Homeowners Association is 204.76 euros for the apartment and 43.65 euros for the parking space, totaling 248.41 euros per month for the year 2026. The Homeowners Association is properly organized and maintained, as evidenced by several key indicators: it is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, collects periodic contributions, maintains a reserve fund for future maintenance, has an established maintenance plan in place, and has arranged building insurance. These factors indicate a well managed building with attention to long term maintenance and financial planning.
The IJburg neighborhood is particularly attractive for families, nature lovers, and water enthusiasts. The area consists of artificially created islands in the IJmeer lake, offering a unique living environment that combines urban convenience with a relaxed waterside atmosphere. Recreation and sports activities can be enjoyed in various parks in the vicinity. The Theo van Goghpark city park is located on Haveneiland at a four minute walking distance, providing green space for relaxation and outdoor activities close to home. The larger Diemerpark is situated parallel to Haveneiland at a three minute cycling distance and offers various sports facilities as well as its own beach area where residents can enjoy the waterfront. At Strand IJburg, residents can swim, surf, or simply relax on the sand during warmer months. Those interested in history can take the ferry from the harbor to Forteiland Pampus or Muiderslot castle, both of which are significant historical sites in the region.
Living on the IJburglaan offers considerable convenience in daily life. All shops for daily groceries as well as pleasant restaurants and cafes are located in the immediate vicinity, reducing the need for long trips for basic necessities. There are several primary schools and a secondary school in the surrounding area, making this location practical for families with children of different ages.
The property is excellently accessible by various modes of transportation. Tram line 26 runs along the entire length of the IJburglaan heading towards Amsterdam Central Station, providing a direct connection to the city center and beyond. Additionally, there is a bus stop practically in front of the door, offering additional public transport options. By car, residents can reach the A10 ring road, A1, and A9 highways in approximately five to ten minutes, making regional travel convenient. Schiphol Airport can be reached in about twenty minutes by car. Cycling to the vibrant center of Amsterdam takes about half an hour for those who prefer active transportation.
The apartment features various modern amenities including fiber optic cable for high speed internet, a TV cable connection, mechanical ventilation, and natural ventilation options that allow residents to control the air quality in their home. The building has a flat roof covered with bituminous roofing material, which is a common and durable roofing solution for apartment buildings. The total volume of the apartment is 363 cubic meters according to the measurement report.
The purchase agreement will be drawn up according to the model of the seller through the project notary Van Buttingha Wichers Netwerk Notarissen located in The Hague. Buyers have the freedom to choose their own mortgage notary, which is important for those who have existing relationships with local notaries. The purchase agreement will include the age clause, NEN clause, asbestos clause, and non owner occupancy clause, which are standard provisions in Dutch real estate transactions that protect both buyers and sellers.
The property can be handed over immediately upon agreement, making this an attractive option for buyers who are looking to move without delays. The combination of the spacious layout, the energy efficient features, the perpetually paid off ground lease, and the included parking space makes this apartment a complete living solution in one of Amsterdam's most modern and water rich neighborhoods.
