About this property

4 bedroom Townhouse from 1903 with Private Garden - 12 MIN. TO CITY CENTRE

Registratienummer Toeristische Verhuur 0479 1EBC 2FF8 5450 A7A1

Spacious Townhouse with garden.
The house is located in the northern town of Zaandam, only a 12 minute train-ride from Amsterdam Central Station.

Any two bedrooms of your choice are included in the price for four guests. Two further bedrooms are available. The use of one extra bedroom costs €50 per night or €75 for both.

Classic Dutch townhouse with sunny south/west facing garden. The house was originally build in 1903. We lovingly restored the house in 2010. In 2021 we redesigned the layout of the ground floor and new kitchen.

Walk to the beautiful central square with many restaurants, terraces and bars in 8-10 minutes. A large supermarket is only 3 minutes by foot.

On the ground floor you will find the entrance hall with toilet and wash basin, a living room with comfortable sofa's, dining table and tv. Fully equipped open plan kitchen with espresso machine and American style double door fridge/freezer.

On the first floor you will find 2 bedrooms each of 16m2 or 170 sq ft. One bedroom with a king sized bed, sofa and tv, the second bedroom with a queen sized bed and balcony. Also a family bathroom with extra-deep bath & rain-shower.

The second floor has 2 bedrooms of 20m2 or 215 sq ft. One with a queen sized bed, sofa & tv. The second with a king sized bed and small sitting area. Both have access to a shared ensuite bathroom with rain-shower. On this floor also the washer & dryer.

A spacious property of 165m2 or almost 1800 sq ft. in the historical town of Zaandam, only a 12 minute train ride from Amsterdam Central Station. The train station is a 5-7 minute walk from the house.

Parking costs €7 per day on a square which is 200 meters from the house.
It is also possible to park in front of the house but this costs €2,80 per hour between 09:00 and 23:00 hrs. and you also need to renew your ticket every two hours because this is a residential street and long parking is discouraged.
Parking in central Amsterdam is not easy to find and costs around €8 per hour! Taking a train is much less stressful. Since the house is only 13km away from central Amsterdam, taking an Uber may also be a convenient option. A 4-passenger car to Dam Square costs 30 euros, a 6-passenger minibus 55 euro.

In the garden shed you will find garden furniture and also everything that you'll need to make a great bbq. Large gas grill provided.

WE DO NOT ACCEPT BOOKING FROM GROUPS WITH AVERAGE AGE UNDER 35.

Maximum 4 people are allowed to stay at the house. Unfortunately local law stipulates this.

Besides all the museums, the Anne Frank House and the many other historical and touristic sites on offer in and around Amsterdam, this location is also perfect for nearby daytrips to the world famous "Zaanse Schans", Volendam, Keukenhof and much more.

A nature park "Het Twiske" with lakes, beaches and (sail)boat or kayak rental possibilities is only a 10 minute drive away. The coastal beaches of Zandvoort and Bloemendaal at a short 30 minute drive.

Great location. The house was very nice and close to all necessities.
We enjoyed our time in Zaandam and the house was very nice. We did have issues with the washing machine not working. As we were there for 10 days this was most inconvenient. Fortunately, the owner organised to have another one installed, but only after persistence by us.

Eine ruhige Auszeit …
nahe des Trubels in Amsterdam. Das Ferienhaus liegt ideal als Ausgangspunkt, um Amsterdam und die Umgebung zu erkunden. Auch Zaandam lädt zum Verweilen ein. Das gemütliche Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen, die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter war super. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Beautiful and spacious home in quiet neighborhood
This historic home was a quiet and well-equipped retreat for our family's first visit to Amsterdam. The neighborhood provided easy access to Amsterdam and other areas of the Netherlands by train but was in a quiet residential setting. There were nearby grocery stores and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals in and there were lots of restaurants within walking distance. The washer and dryer were a big help. The Zaandam neighborhood itself was fun to explore and had several canals. The hosts were very helpful with details for a smooth check in and check out. We felt right at home- thank you!

Quiet location a quick train to Amsterdam
We loved this property. I stayed with my parents and my 11 month old son and it was lovely. The property is on a quiet street within a quick walking distance to restaurants and shops in Zaandam. It is a 5 minute walk to the train station and a quick 15 minute train into Amsterdam. It was nice to be in a quiet area after spending time in the busy streets of Amsterdam. The kitchen and living room was a great space and has a door to close off from the stairs which was perfect with a young kid since the stairs are quite steep. Having laundry and the travel crib there was great with the baby and the kitchen is well stocked. Would recommend this to anyone planning a trip.

R&R in Zaandam
We really enjoyed our stay at this property in Zaandam. The location was great...the train into Amsterdam was an easy walk from the house...and it was close enough to the high street (grocery store, shopping, eateries, etc.) to make it convenient but not so close that we could hear it. In fact, the neighborhood is quiet...and quite charming. The house is well furnished, the beds and pillows were comfortable and the hot water never failed us (4 fifty-something adults). Communication with the host was easy and I received responses quickly. I would book this property again in a heartbeat!

Fabulous House and Location
Loved this beautiful home in Zaandam! A wonderful 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home that gave us the opportunity to spread out. It is a short train ride from the airport and Amsterdam. Zaandam is a fabulous town with fantastic restaurants. We truly loved our stay here. The only downside is the very steep stairs but we knew that before renting the place and so glad we did not let them deter us. Highly recommend this home!

Superschönes Ferienhaus, perfekt zum Entspannen.
Das Ferienhaus lag in einer ruhigen Gegend sodass man sich gut entspannen konnte. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten waren in 3 min zu Fuß erreichbar und haben alles geboten um im gemütlichen Garten ein bisschen zu grillen. Ich kann dieses Ferienhaus nur weiterempfehlen.

Our 6 person family had a good experience at the property and really enjoyed leaving the busy city of Amsterdam behind and looked forward to returning to the quiet location. Train service was excellent and easy. The beds were comfortable. We were unable to get the oven functioning and I would recommend improved lighting downstairs and a handrail for the bath. Thanks for a great stay and we look forward to getting our damage deposit returned! Tessa and Jack

Schöner Urlaub mit 8 Personen
Das Haus war schön und die Lage sehr gut. Mit der Zug waren es nur 2 Haltestellen nach Amsterdam Central. Ein paar Reperaturen müssten noch durchgeführt werden, aber das wichtigste wie Küche und Bad sind sehr schön.

A get together get away
Lovely property in a very quiet area, but close to the shops and local bars and restaurants in Zaandam. Everything you need is there and communication with Pelle & Viktoria van Hall the owners was relatively quick and easy. Easy walk to train station with a 20 minute ride into central Amsterdam and the trains are regular with usually plenty of spare seats. The train from Schiphol Airport goes straight to Zaandam and if you get the sprinter service it’s a quick and cheap way to get to and from the property. A super place for 3-4 couples to spend a long weekend away and enjoy what Amsterdam has to offer and not ignoring Zaandam itself which is a vibrant place with good night life and a great fresh produce market for when you want to eat in. Highly recommend.

Lovely row house
Our family of seven had a nice stay. The house is not far from the metro, groceries, and restaurants. Stairs are steep with two bedrooms on the third floor. It was hot when we visited in July and the upstairs got up to 33 °. There are small fans in 3 of the 4 bedrooms. The beds are comfortable and bathrooms are nice. The kitchen has everything you need.

Base for Touring The Netherlands
Excellent, roomy, comfortable property for families or larger groups! Online listing very accurate. Owners always responded in timely manner, check in with Farah was great, she's extremely helpful! We used the home as our base to tour The Netherlands. Visited Amsterdam, Gouda, Utrecht and Den Haag. 10 minute walk to Zaandam train station making all touring extremely easy. Much better pricing than trying to find something comparable in Amsterdam city center and only 2 train stops from Amsterdam Centraal station. Very highly recommend!!!

First Holland Trip and Definitely Will Go Back & Stay Here Again
Ok where do I start. I'm travelling to Holland with family of 8 and we're all first timers. We arrived early before check in time and Pelle is ok for us to drop our luggages then stroll around the house. We were greeted by Farah who had been very helpful and super informative about the house and surrounding. Back to stroll around, the house is very close to many restaurants at zaandam centrum including the supermarket Albert Heijn. Well, supermarket is everything to us, we can buy vegies and meat then cook it at the house. Their kitchen is amazing, their cooking utensil is more than what we need. The house is located at nice housing area, there's a playpark in walking distance as well as ducks in the river, so if you bring kids along with you, you guys will have many fun activities together. The interior itself feels like home, clean and comfortable. We stayed for 4 days and feels too soon. I like the room on the leftside at the 3rd floor, it's just sooooo Europe. We fully commute with public transportation and their access to public transportation such as Zaandam train station and bus is very close. If you ride the train, it only took 15 minutes to Amsterdam or around 20-25 minutes to Schipol Airport. I have nothing to complain but just a note that the stairs are steep. Should be careful.

Super Haus in ruhiger Lage
Tolles eingerichtete Haus in einer ruhigen Lage. Zur Zugstadion Zaandam sind es nur 5-10 Minuten Fußweg und man braucht nur 20 Minuten bis man am Hauptbahnhof in Amsterdam ankommt. Preis für die Unterkunft ist auch voll in Ordnung und ein guter Standort um sich Amsterdam anzuschauen. Vor Ort hat man einen Supermarkt sowie einen Square wo man wunderbar essen gehen kann oder Abend etwas trinken gehen möchte. Farah die uns Empfangen hat war sehr freundlich hatte uns das Haus gezeigt und wie alles Funktioniert. Ebenfalls bekamen wir super Tipps wo in Zaandam der Punk abgeht. Diese Haus ist weiter zu Empfehlen und würde es jeder wieder mieten.

Incredibly convenient and easy access!
Thanks to Belle and to his hostess Farrah - the house was perfect for our needs! A quick walk to the train station and we were in Amsterdam at the Centraal Station within 11 minutes. No need for a car once in town. A quaint gateway to all the Dutch character you want without the big city right at your door step. I highly recommend this house!

nice location
We went in Amsterdam during our holidays in August. We are two families of 8 persons . The house is very nice ,even more after the new restore of the kitchen and livingroom. You can find a very big kitchen ,perfect for a lot of guests as we were. The train station is at 5 min of walking (20 min from Amsterdam central station) and a big supermarket is very close (8 min of walking). The house is placed in a very silent and clean street. The dishes that we find in the kitchen is very few for 8 persons (even broken). We have been fine.
