Large 100m2 houseboat, Amsterdam Centrum Available direct from owner from May 1, 2026€2,700 pm + utilities, Returnable security deposit 3,200 Euros.Rental period of 1 year with option to renew for another year*This is a fully legal free market rental, there is no urgency requirement and you may register at this address. Rental is for residential use only, Absolutely No smoking onboard. Pets are allowed with conditions.This is a prestige property, a great well finished houseboat. There's lots of space for entertaining, with the massive open plan living room.The Realengracht canal is a premium location; a quiet, prosperous, and friendly neighborhood in the Centrum of Amsterdam, opposite Prinsen island. There is no through traffic on the street, and little water traffic compared to the inner ring canals.The south facing location gets direct sunlight, almost all day even in mid-winter.The boat is held about 4 meters away from the street, so there's a clean privacy moat, with a sturdy steel bridge with a locking gate.The boat is 27 meters long. All of the boat is used as living space; there is no machine room any more.There is only 1 bedroom [for a couple] with a very large bed. It is possible to make a second sleeping area using dividers in the main room. There's a lot of storage space, a large living room, full bath and separate toilet, washing machine, high efficiency gas central heating, and hardwood double glazed windows that open. Most of the interior is a single very spacious room, there is a separate space for laundry and storage, with 32 large built in drawers.The boat has city gas, water, internet, TV, and electricity. It is rented fully furnished.The kitchen has an induction stove and electric oven.Excellent road access to the center of town and the ring highway. Expenses; the tenant pays the actual utility costs. This is highly variable, and depends on weather and usage patterns. The major cost is heating, and gas prices are not fixed. In 2024, a family of 4 paid €281 per month. I ask €300 above the indicated rental price, and the difference will be adjusted at the end of the year. Other expenses; the city charges some taxes (the same as you would pay in an apartment) to the registered resident of the property. I have no control over these taxes, but they come to a few hundred per year. We do not (and never have) apply a “contract charge” or any other hidden fees. We have owned this ship for 35 years, we did the construction and we do the maintenance. Regular haulout (drydock) last done in May 2025, so the hull integrity is assured. Next drydock will be in 2030.Tenant must have a provable income of at least €50,000 NET. Guarantees by third parties will not be accepted. Proof of income is required before viewing. Tenant is informed that the houseboat accommodation is not covered by Dutch rent control laws (article 7:233 BW). This has been confirmed by our lawyer as well as the “huurcommisie”. huurder is ermee bekend dat de huurbescherming voor woonruimte niet op de onderhavige overeenkomst van toepassing is (art 7:233 BW).This is because houseboats are considered 'moveable property' in Dutch law. We offer a comprehensive contract in English. Tenant’s due diligence; the ownership of the vessel can be confirmed by the Dutch shipping register (Scheepskadaster). Ship number available on request.*Second contract year is possible by mutual consent. Further periods might be possible. Our contract is available by request.The floating garden boat seen in the pictures will probably have to be removed soon, so is not included in this offer.
