Ready-to-move-in top floor apartment with IJ view in Amsterdam Noord

This tastefully renovated apartment is situated on the top floor of a well-maintained building in the sought-after Circusbuurt neighborhood of Amsterdam Noord. The property offers a living area of 68.30 square meters as measured according to BBMI standards, providing a comfortable and well-proportioned living space. Being located on the uppermost floor means there are no upstairs neighbors, which contributes to a peaceful living environment. The elevated position also allows for abundant natural light throughout the apartment.

The entrance is reached via a neatly maintained staircase. Upon entering, you step into a spacious hallway that provides access to all rooms in the apartment. The living area is designed as an open and cohesive space that combines a kitchen with an island, a sitting area, and a dining area. The kitchen island doubles as a bar, making it a practical and social element of the home. From the living area, you have direct access to the sunny balcony. Thanks to the high location of the apartment, the balcony offers an appealing view stretching towards NDSM and even the Pontsteiger building across the IJ waterway.

The apartment features two bedrooms, both of good dimensions. The master bedroom has the added benefit of a walk-in closet, providing valuable storage space for clothing and personal items. The second bedroom is also generously sized and can serve as a guest room, children's room, or home office depending on the needs of the new owner.

The bathroom has been modernized by the current owner and is finished in a contemporary style. It contains a toilet, a walk-in shower, and a washbasin cabinet. In addition to the bathroom, there is a practical storage cupboard where the washing machine and dryer are installed, keeping these appliances out of sight while remaining easily accessible.

In the basement of the building, there is a private storage room measuring 6 square meters. This space is ideal for storing bicycles, as parking facilities in the area consist of paid street parking with permit system.

The building was originally constructed in 1989 and features a flat roof. The apartment benefits from energy label B, which indicates a good level of energy efficiency. Insulation includes double glazing and full insulation throughout the property. A mechanical ventilation system is installed to ensure proper air circulation. The central heating boiler is an HR Intergas combi boiler that was newly installed in 2025, meaning the new owner will have a modern and efficient heating system with a long expected lifespan ahead.

The property is located on municipal leasehold ground, which is an important consideration for Amsterdam real estate. In this case, both the continuous period and the perpetual period of the leasehold have been fully paid off. This means the new owner will never have to pay any leasehold costs in the future, which represents a significant financial advantage compared to properties where leasehold still needs to be paid periodically.

The Owners Association, called Stadsvilla I Kermispad, is managed by the owners themselves rather than an external property management company. The VvE is properly organized with registration at the Chamber of Commerce, annual meetings, periodic contributions, a reserve fund, a multi-year maintenance plan, and building insurance. The monthly service costs amount to 127 euros, which covers the shared expenses and contributions to the maintenance reserve.

The Circusbuurt is a popular residential area in Amsterdam Noord, situated adjacent to Tuindorp-Oostzaan. The neighborhood is characterized by its green appearance and good range of facilities.

The NDSM ferry is also accessible within the same timeframe. Car owners can reach the Ring A10 highway without difficulty. For those seeking nature and relaxation, the recreational area Het Twiske is located nearby, offering green space for walking, cycling, and other outdoor activities.

The apartment is offered at an asking price of 400,000 euros, which translates to approximately 5,797 euros per square meter. The property is available immediately for viewing and purchase, with delivery to take place in consultation but no later than June 1, 2026. The buyer has the freedom to choose their own notary, provided the notary is established in Amsterdam. As is standard practice, a binding agreement is only formed once the purchase deed has been signed by both parties.

This listing presents a move-in ready apartment in a desirable location with several practical advantages including the paid-off perpetual leasehold, recent boiler installation, modernized bathroom, and the convenience of a top-floor position without upstairs neighbors. The combination of the quiet neighborhood setting with good accessibility to the city center makes this property suitable for various buyers seeking a home in Amsterdam Noord.
