AREA:
Prinseneiland is a delightful, quiet, and authentic street, forming "the islands" along with Realeneiland and Bickerseiland. For centuries, ships were built here, and various related crafts were practiced. Today, due to its secluded location, it is one of the most sought-after, peaceful, and atmospheric neighborhoods in the center of Amsterdam.
Originally known as Middeneiland, the island was renamed Prinseneiland after the princes of Orange. It is an oasis of tranquility in the middle of the city, making it an attractive residential and working area. After the Second World War, Prinseneiland was virtually abandoned but was rediscovered by artists (Jan Sierhuis; Johan van der Keuken; Peter Schat; Willem Breuker). The apartments in one of the national monument warehouses are now a unique opportunity for those seeking a quiet home in the heart of Amsterdam.
This property boasts an exceptionally favorable location, with Central Station just a stone's throw away. This provides you with direct access to all forms of public transportation, including trams, buses, metro, trains, and ferries. Moreover, the popular shopping area around Haarlemmerplein is within walking distance, where you'll find a spacious Albert Heijn supermarket, Eko Plaza and HEMA and the vibrant Haarlemmerstraat.
The surrounding area offers a wealth of entertainment and relaxation possibilities. You'll enjoy the proximity to various attractions, cozy cafes, and excellent restaurants. Furthermore, there are numerous schools, childcare facilities, a petting zoo, sports amenities, and wellness centers nearby, making this an ideal location for families and active individuals. The neighbourhood is also known for its art deco cinema The Movies, which shows independent films, and the farmers' market on Wednesdays at Haarlemmerplein.
For nature and recreation enthusiasts, the beautiful Westerpark is a short walk away. Here, you can not only enjoy the park but also explore the bustling Westergasterrein, which offers a diverse cultural and culinary experience.
The accessibility of this location is excellent, with easy access to the Ring A10 via Haarlemmerweg (S103) or the modern Spaarndammertunnel (S102). This makes traveling to other parts of the city and beyond very easy and convenient. In summary, this property not only offers comfortable living but also the ultimate city experience at your fingertips.
