Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

***Summer 2024 (1-10 august looking for Paris & 12-26 august looking for Kopenhagen) is open, and looking for exchange weekends anytime! ***

The house has a livingroom, diningroom, a fully equipped kitchen, one master bedroom with bathroom and seperate toilet downstairs, 4 kids rooms upstairs (1 with a single bed, 1 with a double bed plus spare, 1 with a double bed and 1 with a raised bed) and a bathroom with bath, shower and toilet. In the garden is a picknick table, a large loungeset, two trampolines and a small heated pool. Enough space to park on-site.

We moved in this house in October 2016 and have been rebuilding it since. We have two new bathrooms and new kitchen, the bedrooms are all neat and tidy. We installed a special environmentally friendly heating system which combines heat from the sun and from wood to warm the water and the house. You are welcome!

We have a charger for electric cars.

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

The house is situated in a medium village which is 15km from citycenter Amsterdam, 3km from Amstelveen, 20km from Haarlem, 25km from Zandvoort (beach). Perfect for families who like a big city but prefer to sleep in a friendly neighbourhood in a green and natural environment. In the village you can buy all your groceries at the supermarket within walking distance (15 minutes). There are several restaurants (for example French kitchen, Italian kitchen, Chinese kitchen, all-you-can-eat sushi and snack bar) within a range of 5km.

The forest (Amsterdamse Bos) starts 2km from our house. You can cycle, walk, run, rent a rowing boat, swim and eat there. For smaller kids (under age of 10) you can visit the goat farm.

You can go to Amsterdam by bike (45 minutes), by car (20 minutes) or public transport (1 hour). Amsterdam has great museums, shopping and dining facilities. In Aalsmeer you can also find an art gallery, cinema and theater. There is a busstop in front of the house and a subway station in 4,5km.
