As a firm, we oversee the sale of a diverse range of properties. As a real estate agent, this variety is highly stimulating and contributes to a comprehensive understanding of the Amsterdam housing market.

In streets such as Van Hallstraat, Frederik Hendrikstraat, and Van Limburg Stirumstraat, you will find a wide selection of shops, specialty stores, and delicatessens. Additionally, the area offers several excellent restaurants and welcoming cafés.The apartment is a well-designed three-room residence of approximately 91 m². It offers the perfect combination of contemporary living and comfort. With two bedrooms and a delightful garden of approximately 75 m² adjoining the living area, the layout is exceptionally well thought out, making optimal use of the available space. What makes this apartment unique is the design of the complex, its location, and the fantastic view. Should you be interested, I would be delighted to invite you for a viewing. Of course, I will be happy to tell you more about the apartment then. Perhaps we will see each other soon.
At this location, outside the city limits at the time, the N.V. Nederlandsche Palmitine-Fabriek constructed several buildings in 1864 where candles were made from palm oil and talc. Palmitine is a fatty acid derived from palm oil. The production of these candles caused odor and fire hazards, making a location outside the city desirable. In addition to candles, large blocks of stearin were produced for export, allowing foreign companies to manufacture candles from them. In 1875, the buildings were acquired by the newly established N.V. Amsterdamsch Westelijk Entrepôt, which saw this as a suitable location for warehouses. The Kostverlorenvaart was the waterway to Rotterdam, and via the newly constructed Westerkanaal, it was connected to the IJ and the North Sea Canal. The largest warehouse was named Ambon and was leased by the Nederlandsche Handel-Maatschappij. Between 1910 and 1920, rows of houses were built along Van Hallstraat and Eerste Keucheniusstraat, incorporating the complex into the expanding city. In 1949, the entrepôt was taken over by Blaauwhoedenveem-Vriesseveem. In 1953, the warehousing company decided to repurpose the aging buildings (once again) into an industrial complex for various tenants. It was renamed Amsterdams Westelijk Industriecentrum (AWIC). By then, several other businesses had already established themselves in the buildings, including a printing company, an instrument factory, and a bag trading firm. From 1954 onwards, mopeds of the Austrian brand HMW were manufactured there. Between 1998 and 2005, the AWIC site was redeveloped into a residential area named Meander, located between Van Hallstraat and Kostverlorenvaart. The complex consists of a meandering closed façade, which in scale corresponds to the broad Kostverlorenvaart. Due to its winding shape, two loop-shaped inner courtyards and a car-free urban square were created. Phase 2 is an architectural continuation and, at the same time, the finalization of the Meander project. However, its program is more complex and characterized by a mix of functions. The façades are made of red and white brick and are adorned with steel, concrete, and stone ornaments. The upper floors are clad with rabbet boards.
The living area, situated in the center of the apartment, forms the heart of the home.

The open kitchen is neatly designed in a timeless style and equipped with various built-in appliances. The robust wooden flooring completes the space and complements the pleasant ambiance of the home. The spacious entrance hall houses the toilet and an internal storage room with a washing machine connection.
The apartment features two full-sized bedrooms, both directly adjacent to the garden. Each bedroom offers ample space for a double bed and a large wardrobe. The garden can be accessed from both bedrooms through French doors. The bathroom is accessible from the hall and includes a bathtub, a walk-in shower, a vanity unit, and a radiator.
The delightful garden of approximately 75 m² can be accessed either through the sliding doors from the living room or the French doors in the bedrooms.
