What makes this property special?
Before entering the home, you arrive at the front garden, where there is space to park your bicycles.
Upon entering, you step into the hallway, which offers space for hanging coats. From the hall, you can access the toilet and the basement on the right-hand side and the spacious living room on the left-hand side.
The living room is remarkably bright and immediately feels welcoming. The oak herringbone floor adds a warm and luxurious touch. Large windows provide plenty of natural light throughout the space.

At the rear, two bedrooms provide access to a balcony with an open view. This floor also includes the bathroom, equipped with a bathtub with shower, double sink, toilet, and washing machine connection.

Personal note:
We have lived in this house with great joy, which is why leaving comes with a touch of nostalgia. This is the place where our children grew up and where we created many wonderful memories. Now that they have left the nest, it’s time for us to begin a new chapter.
When we first viewed the house many years ago, we saw children playing in the green area around the corner. And in truth, the neighbourhood hasn’t changed much since: children still play on the grass, in the park, and at the playground behind the Kruiskerk. The community is warm and welcoming, with friendly neighbours, street gatherings, and the well loved Elsrijk festival. At the same time, it’s a peaceful place where you can hear the birds singing.
There are plenty of shops nearby, and Amsterdam is just a short bike ride away — practical and convenient.
We truly hope that the new residents will enjoy this lovely home just as much as we have, and that they will create their own beautiful memories here.
