Edgarshof - Breedweer 78

Building number 12 - two-room apartment 55 m2/ west-facing balcony, 1st floor, energy label A+++

Type 5, mirrored

This two-room apartment is located on the second floor and can be accessed via the gallery at the rear. This gallery, overlooking the common courtyard with garden, parking spaces and bicycle storage, is accessible via one of the two outside staircases. Because this building number is located in the corner of the gallery, this point is nicely sheltered and easily accessible from both the outside stairs and from the main entrance on Breedweer. There is an elevator, because although walking up and down stairs is excellent for fitness, an elevator is very comfortable when carrying heavy items or groceries.
The bedroom is adjacent to the gallery. The living room orients completely and with large windows on the Parallel Road, with a sliding door to a lovely west-facing balcony. Here the afternoon and evening sun can be enjoyed for a long time.
The kitchen is delivered as shell, buyers can furnish it entirely according to their own taste and needs. In this day and age, we obviously cook on electricity. Heating is also based on this. You can feel it, not see it, because the floors are the heat source. This also applies to the bathroom with walk-in shower and washbasin and, in this housing type, separately divided toilet with fountain. These are tiled and equipped with high-quality plumbing and faucets. The bedroom (about 9 square meters!) has its own walk-in closet, while in the technical cum facility room the connections for the washer and dryer are located.

Layout: main entrance through Breedweer, with mailboxes and doorbells. Common hall with passage to the stairwell and elevator. Porch with access to the gallery.
1st floor: gallery. Entrance apartment. Hall with meter cupboard. Toilet room with wall closet and fountain. Storage annex technical room for installations and connections for washer and dryer. Bedroom (± 10 m3) with separate walk-in closet. Tiled bathroom with sink and walk-in shower.
Bright living room with large windows and sliding doors to west-facing balcony. Open kitchen (casco to deliver).

A total of 11 parking spaces will be built in the shared courtyard. The bicycle racks (right, plural) will be located behind them. These are prime locations for harnessing solar power for electricity. Because of course, Edgarshof is also focused on a fossil fuel-free future in this respect.

Edgarshof is located in Koog aan de Zaan, east of the railroad and the Provincialeweg (the N-connection between Alkmaar and Amsterdam) and centrally in Zaanstad. With its own NS-station, commuting by public transport is obvious, the bicycle is increasingly used as an alternative. And why not? The Hempont, which connects Zaandam to Amsterdam's Western Docklands, is a fifteen-minute bike ride away. Less if the pedal power is electronically assisted. The fast bicycle route to Amsterdam-Noord or all the other corners of the Zaan region has a comfortable counterpart in the widespread regional transport.
Motorists turn onto the A8 within the kilometer and cross the Coentunnel five minutes later. The other way leads to the A9, toward Haarlem and Schiphol Airport. And vice versa. Quickly back home in Edgarshof!
