HouseBoat for rent: no longer available Dijksgracht in Amsterdam

“De Vertrouwen” - Houseboat Dijksgracht, Amsterdam

Looking for an unique opportunity to stay on an original houseboat? This beautiful and furnished “Tjalk” from 1904 is in a very good condition and is situated in one of the most inspiring streets of Amsterdam: De Dijksgracht.

The ship is well painted, and due to the windows along the side of the ship and on the top of the roof, the light inside is amazing. The ship is perfect for a couple and is for rent for 6 months during the best season of the year: april till september.

Although it’s a ship, all the equipment for a good living is on board. With a length of 24m and almost 5m wide there is lots of space inside for the bedroom, bathroom and a split-level living room. The separate kitchen is one of the highlights in the captain's cabin with 360 degrees lookout over the Dijksgracht and the surroundings.

Central Station is only 5-7 minutes away by bike and you can walk to the Nemo Science Center (picture 8). Tram 26 is around the corner and if you need to go out of town by car, you reach the A10 (highway) in 10 minutes. At the end of the street is a very popular cafe – Hannekes Boom – and a climbing wall facility.

De Vertrouwen is one of the 40 houseboats on the Dijksgracht in Amsterdam. De Dijksgracht is well-known as one of the greenest and most authentic streets in Amsterdam. It is situated in the City center, but it’s not crowded at all. Between 5 p.m. and 7 a.m. the street is only accessible for cars from the neighbourhood so during the summer people here live often more outside than inside. The outside "shared places" are used for gardening, working space and open-air communal dining with bbq's and fire-places.
