On one of the most beautiful historic spots in the Zaan region is now the opportunity to rent this architecturally built water villa (240m2) for an unforgettable vacation. The water villa - built in 2020 - located on a dike on a tributary of the Zaan you sail right into the nature reserve! Rural living at its best, but with the amenities of the Zaanstreek within reach; and 20 minutes by car from Amsterdam. To the west the North Sea coast and to the east the dike with Volendam and Marken. Here you live in the middle of the seasons; in summer you can enjoy boating and swimming. In autumn it is a pleasure to walk or cycle. In winter you can be the first to skate on the small, shallow ditches here. And when spring arrives you can see the lambs frolicking in the meadows, which you can look at beautifully from the nature house; because every window is a "room with a view. "*This accommodation was featured in the Dutch series "One big family" on Videoland in 2023 and 2025.
Nature and surroundings
Where else do you find a place in the world where every window is "a room with a view"!"At the end of the village Oostknollendam 20 minutes drive from the center of Amsterdam; lies on a side branch of the Zaan on the dike lonely and alone houseboat. It is actually also a bird-watching cabin where you are surrounded all day by songbirds such as titmice, robins, wrens, greenfinches, woodpeckers and yellow wagtails, and of course magpies, jackdaws and black crows can be observed at close range; with the occasional sparrow hawk, buzzard or hawk passing by as a special feature. Wild ducks, moorhen, greylag goose, geese, herons, coots, carp all swim by undisturbed. In summer we jump from the terrace into the water for a swim (swimming pier present since 2022); in winter we hope every year to put on our skates, but most of the time we stick to cycling the Bannetocht or a round of Jisperveld.
