Available for 3 MONTHS ONLY (April – June 2023) - Amsterdam, Landsmeer
Rent: €.2800,- excluding bills/month
For centuries the Netherlands has been known for its special light. Elusive and always changeable, certain Dutch masters were renowned for their ability to recognize and capture this, the works of Albert Cuyp serving as prime example. Here we offer a unique and limited opportunity to experience this. Enjoy every moment in this characteristic, fully detached house with horizon views over the meadows of the North Holland Waterland. From every window and in every corner of this house, the light is an experience. Here you are inspired, and you can also relax.
We offer a beautifully styled, luxuriously furnished, detached 2-bedroom* home with private driveway and large, south-west facing, sunny and peaceful garden set along a lovely canal, located a stones-throw from Amsterdam in the pleasant and popular Waterland village of Landsmeer. In this prime location you will enjoy both the thrills of city life, the tranquility of the Dutch countryside AND the company of a well natured and independent cat **.
On this unique location on the Kistenmakerseiland, you are surrounded by characteristic buildings, bridges and waterways. This island was housed a crate manufacturing workplace, which were then transported by boat henceforth via the small surrounding canals. The area was redeveloped in the late 19th century into an idyllic residential situation.
Landsmeer centrum is only a 10-minute walk, where a variety of shops and amenities are found such as bike rental, gyms, beauty salons, the library, cafés and great restaurants. Bus stop is located here, with a 30-minute commute to Amsterdam central with public transportation or a 15 – 20-minute car journey. Rent a canoe or hire a boat to explore the Ilperveld nature reserve, or visit the famous Dutch artist, Anton Heyboer Art Gallery & Museum.
