Long weekend, short or longer holidays. European cities, places near the sea |
Flat in northern part of Amsterdam, Netherlands
We live in this house since July 2016 and we love it! The building is completed in 2016 and mainly made of wood and has received several awards for its design and the standard of sustainability. It is positioned in an area which only a couple of decades ago was famous for its shipbuilding. Our apartment is on the second floor to be reached by elevator or stairs. It has a large living room with kitchen and diner table. We love to cook and make diners for our friends and family, so the kitchen is well equipped. We have a master bedroom with a lovely double bed (180x210). Our bathroom is down the hall with a toilet, a shower and two sinks. The second bedroom has a bed for one person or in extended position 180x200 and its own bathroom with shower, a sink and toilet. Of course we also have a washing machine and dryer. There are two large balconies to enjoy sun or shade. We have friendly neighbors who are always willing to help you.

Our Neighbourhood

Nearest Airport: schiphol airport - 25 km
The area is upcoming. There is a lot of building activity. We look out over a broad canal where a sustainable floating neighborhood is laying in, which is called "Schoonschip". Round the corner are several self-build plots and it is fascinating to see how inventive people are. The nearest shops are 1km away. There are several restaurants nearby. We leave you a list with all the nice hang-outs.

About Our Family
Hi!
We are Peter and Sandra, born in 1955 and 1961. Peter is an entrepreneur and works in the public sector as management consultant and has a special interest in sustainability. I am working as a civil servant for the city of Amsterdam. We have three children and five grandchildren, which is lot of fun! Our youngest son is sometimes traveling with us.
We love to travel and explore cities. Visit musea and galleries, and of course try new kitchens. Since this is our only house we can only exchange simultaneous.
