Spacious 37 m² studio available immediately in a unique waterside location, just minutes from the city centre.

Located in the lively and sustainable Houthavens district along the IJ River, this studio offers a rare combination of tranquillity and space with the vibrant city life within easy reach. Here, you can enjoy peaceful living by the water, while being only minutes away from the bustling heart of Amsterdam.

The neighbourhood is characterised by wide quays, modern architecture, and plenty of greenery. In the summer, residents make full use of the waterfront—whether by mooring a boat or relaxing along the IJ shore.
There is a wide range of restaurants and cafés nearby, including popular spots like Anne&Max, REM Eiland, Vessel, Ferry, and Brasserie George. For daily groceries and specialty shops, it's a short walk to the Spaarndammerbuurt or Haarlemmerstraat. The Westerpark and the charming Jordaan are also within walking distance. Additionally, Theater Amsterdam is literally around the corner, and a brand-new Vue cinema is set to open later this year.

Accessibility is excellent: both Amsterdam Central Station and Sloterdijk Station are within a 10-minute bike ride, providing great connections to Schiphol Airport. The ferry to Amsterdam Noord is just around the corner, and the A10 ring road is easily accessible by car.

Layout (see floor plans)
Access to the studio on the sixth floor is via the communal entrance with both lift and stair access.

The living/sleeping area is spacious, bright, and can be arranged to your liking. Large windows let in plenty of natural light throughout the day. From the living area, you step out onto a cosy, enclosed loggia-style balcony, perfect for year-round enjoyment thanks to the glass sliding door and beautiful views over the IJ River.

Custom built-in wardrobes provide ample storage space and a clean, modern finish.

The open-plan kitchen is sleek and fully equipped with a 4-burner induction hob, extractor hood, dishwasher, fridge, and combi-microwave oven.

The modern bathroom features a walk-in shower, toilet, sink, washing machine connection, and mechanical ventilation.

The entire apartment is comfortably heated via underfloor heating.

In the basement, you’ll find a communal bike storage area and a private storage unit. At the rear of the building, there’s a secure, green communal courtyard perfect for quiet relaxation.
