Prices start at 385,000 euros (free of property transfer tax/v.o.n.). Register now via the project site.
The Hive is rising in the Podium Lelywijk, a new and upcoming neighborhood in Amsterdam, next to Lelylaan Station. From here, train, metro, tram, and bus will take you to all parts of the city. And beyond. For example, you can be at Schiphol Airport within a few minutes. But Amsterdam wouldn't be Amsterdam if everything wasn't also easily accessible by bike. From your new home, you can cycle to the Sloterplas or Rembrandtpark in less than ten minutes. And Leidseplein, with all its nightlife options, beckons just a fifteen-minute bike ride away.
The Hive features a total of 135 owner-occupied apartments, each with a south-facing outdoor terrace. The residences have two, three, or four rooms and living areas ranging from approximately 50 to about 98 square meters. During the presale in recent months, a considerable number of apartments have already been placed under option or reserved, but units are still available. These are mainly two-room apartments ranging from 49.8 to 51.3 square meters, with purchase prices starting at 385,000 euros. Additionally, a few larger apartments (with three or four rooms) are still for sale. All purchase prices at The Hive are free of additional costs (vrij op naam) and based on an annual ground lease canon. You can purchase a parking space in the underground garage with your apartment.

The owner-occupied apartments in The Hive are highly energy-efficient (label A+++ or A++++). This is partly thanks to the connection to Amsterdam's district heating network, an innovative thermal energy storage system, excellent insulation, and numerous solar panels. All of this provides you with a high level of living comfort and savings on your energy bill. Moreover, mortgages for energy-efficient apartments are even more advantageous.
Sustainability is also considered in other areas. To prevent excessive heat during summer days, rainwater is retained, there is plenty of greenery on the facades, and there is a beautiful roof garden. And then there is the climate forest located between the two buildings. The motto "Ecology first" becomes very visible in this unique location. There will be lush planting with trees, shrubs, and grasses. A boardwalk runs through the forest. And benches and swings provide places for rest and gathering. Thanks to this "urban jungle," you can fully absorb the presence of nature in the city.
The Hive consists of a new-build complex and a municipal monument, which formerly housed the Calvijn College. The owner-occupied apartments will be located in the new building. A health center will be housed on its ground floor. The old building will soon provide space for creative professionals, a daytime activity center for people with disabilities, and a neighborhood room. So there will be plenty of hustle and bustle.
Are you interested in one of the still available owner-occupied apartments in The Hive? Then go to the project site, create an account (if you haven't already), view the available properties in the housing finder, and register for the apartment of your preference. If an apartment is allocated to you, the real estate agent will automatically invite you for an interview. If the apartment of your choice is already under option, you can still register for it. You will then be placed on the reserve list and still have a chance if the option lapses.
