Dom Helder Camarastraat 1, Zaandam

A DREAM COME TRUE! Free living by the water in a spacious corner house at a very short distance from Amsterdam!

In a quiet and childfriendly neighbourhood within short distance of the train station and city centre, we find this waterfront family home (built 1988).

With almost 100 m2 of living space, this is a nice and spacious home, perfect for families, and the surroundings are also very nice and suitable for families: the children can play outside safely and walk to their primary school, while you are fully enjoying the sunshine in the waterfront garden. From here, you can sail your way in the direction of the Westzaan or the beautiful nature that surrounds Zaandam.

For your daily groceries, the train station and the cosy city centre, you only need to walk or cycle a few minutes – here, all amenities are within easy reach.

An ideal place for families who want to live in a child-friendly area, in a spacious and nice house by the water!

About the location and the neighbourhood:
This house is located in the district of Westerspoor, near the train station and city centre of Zaandam. Despite the central location, this is a surprisingly quiet and secluded residential area where there is almost exclusively local traffic. There is a large playground in the same street and there are several primary schools and facilities for childcare within walking distance of the house. The secondary schools of Zaandam are easily and quickly accessible by bike. The nearest supermarket (Albert Heijn) is located within a 10-minute walk and the city centre of Zaandam can be reached within a few minutes by bike. Within 5 minutes, you can bike to the train station, from where the travel time to Amsterdam CS is only 12 minutes. By car, you drive quickly to the main roads (A8, A9, A10).
