Dorpsstraat 27
1454 AL Watergang

The tranquil and rural area of Watergang is located within 10 minutes of Amsterdam! Properties like these rarely come to market: it offers lots of privacy, space, nature and Amsterdam’s city centre is just around the corner. This turn-key property is ready for a sustainable future: it has solar panels, a solar boiler, floor heating, HR++ glass, mechanical ventilation and a heat recovery system.

Watergang is a small, charming village just above Amsterdam where time seems to stand still. The bridges and antique brick lane take you along the church which dates back to 1642, towards your home. You cross your own bridge to access the 1,005 m2 plot without any directly adjacent neighbours. And, what’s more, the property offers an unobstructed view of the neighbouring protected nature reserve, managed by ‘Staatsbosbeheer’.

The property has recently (2019) been renovated to the highest standards, resulting in a charming and authentic home with all the necessary modern comforts. What’s particularly striking is that the interior and the exterior are in perfect harmony connecting the living areas flawlessly with the beautiful Waterland nature outside.

The plot has various outdoor spaces; terraces, a vegetable garden with a glass greenhouse, two large lawns and a boat house providing direct access to the different waterways.. In summer you can see cattle grazing and in winter you can skate from your garden towards one of the surrounding villages such as Ilpendam or Ransdorp. By boat or bike, you can travel to Broek in Waterland in just 10 minutes, where you can dine out in one of the restaurants.

One of the key assets of this property is the stand-alone guest house, which has its own entrance, an unobstructed view of the nature reserve and all the necessary amenities (kitchen, bathroom, toilet, etc.). It was built to high standards, completed in 2021 and can be used as a B&B, office or atelier.

The large garage is spacious enough for a hobby area and fits multiple cars.

We are extremely proud to be given the opportunity to show you this fantastic property!

The garage is particularly large, and offers ample space to use part of it as a workshop.
