Spacious family house in green suburb of Amsterdam ( 25’ direct bus to Amsterdam musea & centre)
We are a Dutch-French family with two lovely daughters (Fanny 12 & Morgane 14 years old) living in a spacious house ( 170 m2) in Amstelveen.
Amstelveen is situated near the Amsterdam Airport Schiphol( 10mns to our home ) and near Amsterdam and the typical Dutch villages such as Volendam, etc.
Amstelveen has also a forest with lake. You can enjoy a lovely walk in the woods, go sailing or cuddle the goats. There is so much to see at the Amsterdamse Bos, you won’t run out of things to do. This is really close to our home: you can walk there in a few minutes.
So: if you want you can be in the center of Amsterdam in 20 minutes by bus or bike, visit 2 modern museums ( Cobra) in Amstelveen, go shopping ( great shopping facilities!) or do a quiet walk in the forest within a few minutes walk. You can also enjoy a drink and nice food in the old part of Amstelveen or on the beach (30 mns drive only from our home).
We also have some bikes for you to use and discover the beautiful surroundings along the Amstel river and the pretty village: Ouderkerk aan de Amstel. It offers a scenic refuge from the hustle and bustle of big cities. The village is a popular destination for bike rides from Amsterdam .
Should you play the piano,you will be pleased to read that we have one in the living room! If you love reading and cooking, you will enjoy our book collection in our home.
We hope you will want to hear more about us and our house!
Kind regards,
Christine Tanguy & Raphael den Uyl
