Beacon No. 244

We’ve known the current residents and owners for quite some time, and we’ve seen firsthand how tastefully they can renovate and live in their home. Given their creative background and interest in design, this comes as no surprise. But still…
As the first residents and buyers from the construction phase, they had more or less complete freedom at Baken No. 244 to apply their creativity to the layout and finishing of this home.
They Immediately saw Immediately potential in the foundation—a floor plan with light on three sides, large windows, and a terrace that guarantees a view of the IJ.
For them, it has project a wonderful project in which the details, materials, and spaces had to fit together seamlessly. Their design and supervision of the execution have resulted in a truly exceptional apartment with refined luxury. The home features a floor plan with a layout that is balanced, functional, and optimally showcases the space and the view.
We recognize that the creativity and energy invested in the attention to detail add significant value to this exceptional apartment.
In our view, living in L’Authentique is particularly appealing thanks to the presence of an elevator, private parking, and the light and views over the IJ from an intimate, partially covered terrace.

Architecture and Design

Narva Island is a unique residential area in Amsterdam’s Houthavens where history, Sustainability contemporary living come together. The island is part of a transformed neighborhood along the IJ, where former timber docks have been redeveloped into a vibrant urban district with a distinctively Amsterdam character. Narva Island consists of three sub-areas: Houthaven DEF, Narva Island West, and Baken van Narva. The name Narva refers to the Estonian Baltic Sea port of Narva, which was historically important for the timber trade with Amsterdam. Although the neighborhood is still young, it already feels mature and well-integrated. It is thus a successful urban expansion of the western islands.
Narva-Baken is part of Baken van Narva and was designed by the Rotterdam-based architectural firm Klunder. Stefan Fremouw designed the two end buildings of the block, which stand identically mirrored across the inner street at the head of Narva Island on the IJ side.

These buildings mark the end of the building mass that previously resembled canal-side houses along the street, giving way to a more apartment-building-like appearance. This is emphasized by horizontal lines, extensive use of glass, and terraces. In addition to glass, the facade features elegant brickwork with slender, elongated bricks, giving the building a light appearance. The end building consists of four apartments that share a common entrance. The apartments are oriented on three sides, providing plenty of light and views and giving the floors a spacious character. The floor plans were largely flexible from the outset, and the first buyers also had the opportunity to customize the finishes to their own preferences.

What the residents will miss

There’s activity on the water all day long—large ships in the distance, and right in front of us, small boats drop anchor and people go swimming, even in winter. It’s nice that, even though we’re on the second floor, we still have the view but remain connected to the ground. From our balcony, we call out to our kids, who are out stand-up paddleboarding, to let them know dinner is ready. During the Sail parade, family and friends enjoyed a 180-degree view from the balcony that wraps all the way around the apartment.
We chose the Houthavens because it’s on this side of the IJ and close to the city center. We do almost everything by bike: going to the Movies on Haarlemmerstraat, dining out in the Jordaan, and heading to the Noordermarkt on Saturdays. Our kids can bike to their school on Herengracht in 10 minutes. You can also enjoy a nice meal in the Houthavens, at George, Ferry, or Bar Hout. We regularly have breakfast and lunch on the large terrace at Hotel July. We’ll also miss the early morning exercise classes on the pier in front of the hotel. Adjacent to the Houthavens is Spaarndammerstraat, with great shops, restaurants, and supermarkets. The convenience of having our own parking spot under our building with a private charging station is a huge luxury. The residents’ parking app, where you can ask if anyone has a spot for a visiting guest, always works.

Museum het Schip

Museum het Schip is a museum about the Amsterdam School; an art and architecture movement from the early 20th century. This movement is known for the strong housing ideals with which it is associated. The residential block in which the museum is located is perhaps just as special as the museum itself. The original post office in the building is special; the only post office in the Netherlands that has remained untouched since the 1920s. The elegant style of architect Michel de Klerk can be recognized throughout the building. In his designs, every detail has been considered.

The Movies

The Movies cinema has been around since 1912. It is often called the oldest cinema in Amsterdam, but formally that is the Uitkijk cinema, which registered a year earlier. In its early years, the cinema was used as a small-scale neighborhood cinema, and only after the Second World War were films shown to a larger audience. Today, it is one of the most popular arthouse cinemas in Amsterdam. Many visitors also come to The Movies to admire the historic interior. The cinema is located in a 17th-century building on the Haarlemmerdijk and the original art-deco interior has been well preserved. A visit to this cinema feels like a journey through time.

Ice rinks

Once a month, Europe's largest flea market takes place at the NDSM shipyard in Amsterdam-Noord. Be prepared for tons of vintage clothing, antiques, beautiful mirrors, and jewelry. Real stores have stalls here, but private individuals can also rent a stall and sell their own clothes that they no longer wear. Prices are low, so be prepared to haggle and search thoroughly, and you can be 100% sure that you will leave the IJhallen with some real finds. Tip: grab some poffertjes and wear warm clothes if you go in winter, as the warehouse is not heated and most of the stalls are outside!
