KAAP BLANC: LUXURY – FREEHOLD LAND - SUSTAINABLE

This beautiful apartment with indoor parking is part of an exclusive new-build project in a unique location directly on the river IJ.

Location:
KAAP offers a combination of tranquility and liveliness, it inspires and energizes. It is also a place in motion. The project is being built on a spit of land surrounded by river IJ, between the Eye museum and NDSM at the end of Grasweg. The Oeverpark, a green walking zone along river IJ, will be constructed in the coming years.

North is the place to be! Well-known catering establishments such as Pllek, Helling7, Hangar or the trendy Klaproos can be reached within a few minutes by bike and you can visit the weekly market at the IJ-hallen on Saturdays. The district has many parks such as Noorderpark and Vliegenbos but ‘t Twiske is also within easy reach. Or walk via Schellingwouderdijk towards Durgerdam and enjoy the view of the lake.

The city center of Amsterdam can be reached by car via the IJtunnel and you reach Ringroad A10-north via the S118 or S117 in a few minutes.

Noorderpark metro station of the North/South line is less than 10 minutes away by bike and from there you reach the city center or the Zuidas within 15 minutes. Or you can take the ferry to Central Station or Ponsteiger, which is only a 2-minute walk away.


Project KAAP:
KAAP's unique location calls for contemporary architecture. And the result is impressive: five iconic residential buildings with their own character and signature that together form a powerful connection. The small-scale and exclusive residential buildings were designed by various architectural firms, each with their own vision of living and design. The parking garage is currently being built under the 5 buildings after which (early 2023) the construction of the buildings will start. The expected delivery for KAAP Blanc is Q4 2024.


KAAP Blanc:
Blanc has been designed by NEXT architects. The building offers a different perspective from every angle. The outside looks tough and sturdy, the inside is bright and comfortable. The glass fronts and the sloping lines of the balconies ensure a smooth transition from inside to outside. Perforated panels will be placed in front of some windows, which provide privacy and special lighting.

Blanc is a small-scale building with 18 apartments, two or three per floor. The large balconies, where you can lounge and eat outside, give the building a beautiful interplay of lines. The balconies continue like a frame along all facades. This means that you can open the sliding doors in almost every room for a real outdoor feeling.

Layout:
The large windows from floor to ceiling provide a lot of light and provides a nice spacious feeling in this apartment of approx. 88 m2. The apartment is located on the corner on the street side of the complex and has 2 bedrooms.
By elevator and/or staircase you reach the second floor where you enter the apartment. The hall provides access to all rooms.

The living room with open kitchen provides access to the spacious outdoor area of approx. 29 m2 where you have a view towards the river IJ.

The Piet Boon kitchen with spacious cooking island is equipped with Gaggenau appliances and cooking is done on an induction hob with built-in extraction system from Bora. There is also a Quooker tap. The kitchen has already been ordered by the vendor, the layout and equipment have therefore been selected. The color finish can be adjusted in consultation with supplier Piet Boon.

2 bedrooms, a separate toilet, the bathroom and a storage room are adjacent to the hall. The bedrooms are spacious in size so they both king size beds. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows are also equipped with sliding doors that allow you to walk onto the balcony.

The vendor has expanded the bathroom to fit a bath and walk-in shower. Both the bathroom and the (Japanese) toilet will be delivered fully finished and furnished. Tasteful materials and bright tiles have been ordered from supplier Tortu, giving both sanitary areas a luxurious appearance. This finishing and additional costs are of course included in the asking price.

In the indoor storage room there is space for the washing machine and dryer in addition to the heat recovery unit and the Dries box. Under the building, the apartment has an external storage room where you can store other items and bicycles.

Comfort and quality:
All walls and ceilings in the apartments are finished smoothly. The inner frames are made of wood with blunt doors. There is underfloor heating throughout the house with floor cooling for a pleasant indoor climate in the summer. Due to the southeast location, it will never get very hot in your future apartment.

Parking:
Under the 5 KAAP buildings are the parking garage and the external storage areas. You can therefore always park your car comfortably in your own parking space, which is of course included in the asking price.

Owners Association:
KAAP Blanc will have its own administration, the parking garage and storage room will be housed in another HOA. The developer has made a proposal in terms of monthly service costs, of course the meeting after delivery will determine the final amount of the service costs. The vendor has already made a one-off contribution to the future HOA.

Pavilion KAAP:
The pavilion is part of KAAP. A beautiful transparent building of glass with steel elements. This building will house a small-scale restaurant with a fantastic terrace on the river side. For those who will soon be living in KAAP, this is of course the perfect place for a pleasant lunch with friends or family.

Freehold:
Another unique aspect of KAAP is the ground situation. No leasehold, but freehold!

In short: a wonderfully comfortable new-build apartment with its own parking space, which is part of the beautiful KAAP project. Almost all apartments were sold immediately after listing so perhaps this is your chance to live in this exciting place in Amsterdam Noord!
