This is the place to live if you want to live in the heart of Amsterdam without the hustle and bustle and overcrowding by tourists! At your doorstep you have a scenic Amsterdam canal across which you have a panoramic view of the Artis Zoo. Alongside the Entrepotdok there are small terraces where you can enjoy a coffee or a beer or a casual walk. The location which has a pleasant village atmosphere, is dominated by the large former warehouse complex on the Entrepotdok where former warehouses were converted into apartments and offices. Across from the complex which has official Rijksmonument status there is ample parking space. There is no waiting list for a parking permit which can be obtained directly at the local municipality upon registration. The Plantagebuurt is just a stone’s throw away and there are several local shops and restaurants nearby in the area.
According to the deed of division, the property’s intended purpose is to be used as an office but the current owner had obtained a special permit (an Omgevingsvergunning) from the Gemeente to convert the property into an apartment suitable for living. The apartment was thoroughly renovated in 2010-2011. Throughout the apartment there is floor heating but if preferred a modern central heating system can be placed which would raise the energy label to C. For hot water there is an electric boiler with a capacity of 200 litres which was replaced 3 years ago. In the apartment there is also an air purifier system.
The apartment itself is located on the ground floor of the complex which can be reached by stairs or lift through the intersection under the building which connects the Entrepotdok to the Laagte Kadijk. There is a general entrance which leads to a large hall with a lift and immediately on the right the entrance to the apartment itself. Through the main hall of the apartment the two large bedrooms and bathroom can be easily accessed and finally the living room at the back.
The spacious living area looks out over the Laagte Kadijk which is a quiet upmarket residential area, attractive for young couples and small families. Behind the living area there a modern open kitchen with a kitchen island and inbuilt appliances, a few of which have been replaced during the last few years. The luxury bathroom with open bathtub, shower cabin, toilet and double washbasins is situated between both bedrooms. The apartment is ideal for a couple, single person or small family. Alternatively it can be used as an office for a business.
The Entreptdok is very centrally located and can be easily accessed by car or bike. From the A1 and A10 via the Piet Heintunnel and from the A10 via the Ijtunnel. There are also good public transport connections going to Central Station and the east and north side of Amsterdam. The metro station at Waterlooplein is about 15 minutes walking distance away.
