The combination of architectural beauty, serene tranquility, and a warm community of residents makes it unique. In addition, the area offers everything one could wish for: excellent shops, sports facilities, good schools, and cozy restaurants, all just a stone's throw away.
As true residents of Amsterdam Zuid, we feel connected to the area. Whereas Cornelis Schuytstraat and Beethovenstraat used to be our favorite places, Marathonweg and Olympiaplein are now also high on our list. Each of these is a lively and versatile location where everything comes together.
What will we miss most? In the first Location house itself, with all our cherished memories and lovely neighbors. The daily walk with the dog along Apollolaan, Van Goyenkade, and Beethovenstraat will also always remain in our memories.
