The property at Tamariskhof 11 is an architecturally designed detached villa located in the Rieteiland-Oost neighborhood of IJburg, Amsterdam.

The villa occupies a 359 square meter plot and offers 241 square meters of living space across multiple levels.

The location of this property is particularly noteworthy. Rieteiland-Oost is a small, quiet island in the southern part of IJburg, consisting exclusively of luxury detached villas surrounded by greenery and water. The position is described as one of the finest on the island, with the house facing a quiet courtyard and offering unobstructed views of water and Diemerpark.
