Amsterdam

Spacious newly built ground-floor apartment on freehold land (no leasehold) with views over the Westerkanaal and an A+++ energy label.

At Schiemanstraat 10, a characterful townhouse has just been completed. Entirely newly constructed in the style of a New York warehouse: robust yet elegant, featuring long, slender 40 cm bricks, symmetrical window layouts, and high-quality aluminium window frames in RAL 6006.

Inside, modern comfort is seamlessly combined with sustainability: an A+++ energy label, fully electric and gas-free living, and triple glazing throughout in ultra-slim profiles.

The ground-floor apartment has its own private entrance, an impressive raised ground floor (“bel-etage”), and a full-sized lower-ground floor level. Together, they provide approximately 102 m² of living space (NEN measured: 101.7 m²). The combination of high ceilings, waterfront views, and the peaceful setting creates a remarkable sense of space and freedom in the heart of the city.

High-end finishing, virtually turn-key

The apartment is delivered with a high-quality finish, including smooth plastered walls, elegant herringbone PVC flooring (ideal in combination with underfloor heating), luxury sanitary fittings, stylish doors, high skirting boards, and all technical installations. The only element not included is the kitchen — a highly personal choice that is left to the buyer. To inspire and assist, the purchaser will receive two hours of complimentary interior design advice from Co van der Horst. The result is a luxurious double ground-floor residence with room for personal touches.

Sustainable, quiet, and future-proof

The apartment is fully electric and equipped with a future-ready installation system, including:

Air-source heat pump
Underfloor heating and cooling
Mechanical ventilation

High-grade thermal and acoustic insulation, combined with triple glazing, ensure a peaceful living environment, excellent indoor comfort, and low energy costs. Solar panels are optional, subject to permit approval.

Layout
Ground floor

With ceiling heights of nearly 2.90 metres, the bel-etage feels exceptionally spacious and bright — a rarity in Amsterdam’s city centre. Large windows and two wide folding glass doors facing the water create a seamless connection between indoors and outdoors. This floor is ideally suited for a generous living room with an open-plan kitchen.

Lower-ground floor (souterrain)

The lower-ground floor has ceiling heights of approximately 2.68 metres and forms a fully functional living level. Here you will find two bedrooms, a separate toilet, a spacious bathroom, a workspace, and a storage/utility room with connections for a washing machine, dryer, and technical installations.

Natural daylight enters through light wells at the front. In addition, walkable glass panels between the ground floor and the lower-ground floor provide extra light and create a striking visual connection between the two levels.

Location

Situated along a quiet quay on the Westerkanaal, in Amsterdam’s historic city centre. Haarlemmerplein, Haarlemmerstraat, and Westerpark are all within a few minutes’ walking distance — highly sought-after areas known for their mix of culture, restaurants, markets, and shops.

Amsterdam Central Station, the A10 ring road, and public transport connections are all quickly accessible.
