Stylish Penthouse with Panoramic Views in ‘The Skinny Lad’

This exceptional 255 m² penthouse, spread over one and a half floors, is located in the building ‘The Skinny Lad,’ part of the prestigious and award-winning ‘Republica’ project in Buiksloterham, Amsterdam-Noord. Completed in 2023, the apartment is situated on private land and offers 360-degree views encompassing both the IJ and the historic city center, as well as the verdant landscapes of Waterland. The interior was designed by Hoog Design Award-winner Mirthe Janus and exudes calm, refinement, and a high level of finish.

With five bedrooms, two bathrooms, generous south- and west-facing balconies, a 6 m² storage room, and two private underground parking spaces (with an optional third), combined with a CO2-positive energy system, this penthouse offers a complete, high-end living experience.

The interior is designed with attention to detail, serenity, and functionality. High-quality and unique materials are used throughout, including custom Shinnoki wooden wall units that add warmth, leather in the kitchen, walls, and floors, natural stone in the bathrooms and toilets, and extensive glass to enhance the open character of the home. The serene color palette and carefully selected materials create a sense of luxury and relaxation upon arrival.

The home is fully equipped with an integrated smart-home system. The lighting plan by Wever & Ducré has been carefully coordinated with the architecture, enhancing the calm and refined atmosphere.

Layout:
A private elevator grants access to the ninth floor, exclusively accessible with your personal lift key for complete privacy. Directly beside the elevator is the entrance to this loft-like floor, finished with poured floors. Opposite the entrance, the wardrobe is discreetly concealed behind a flush pivot door, with the technical room and utility space located behind it.

To the right lies the bespoke kitchen, equipped with exclusive appliances from Gaggenau, Siemens, Quooker, and Bora. The kitchen and dining area form the heart of the home and flow openly into the living space. A central integrated coffee bar with a Decent espresso machine and wine climate cabinet has been incorporated. Large windows and long sightlines in the spacious living room ensure abundant natural light and views toward the city. The adjacent southwest-facing balcony extends the living area and is perfect for long evenings outdoors.

At the center of this floor, a glass staircase connects to the lower level, allowing light and space to flow freely.

Also on this floor are a luxurious bathroom with walk-in shower and sink, and a separate toilet with shower-toilet, carefully integrated into the design. On the northeast side, a spacious chill room with a 75-inch TV provides a perfect relaxation space. The hallway, finished with subtle leather detailing, leads to three large bedrooms, one currently used as a home office. All rooms are bright, peaceful, and comfortable, with ample storage integrated into the custom cabinetry.

Descending via the glass staircase, you reach the eighth floor, home to the expansive private suite of approximately 85 m². This level offers maximum tranquility and privacy. A beautiful Bollé wooden floor extends toward the balcony, once again providing completely unobstructed views. The bedroom includes a generous balcony and an open-plan bathroom with double natural stone sinks and floor-to-ceiling mirrors. The transparent walk-in shower and freestanding bathtub are positioned to optimize the views.

Additionally, this floor features a separate toilet, a spacious walk-in dressing room, a separate laundry room, and an extra bedroom, currently used as a nursery but also suitable as a gym or study. Here, poured floors and custom wooden cabinetry maintain a calm and cohesive aesthetic.

‘Republica’ & Surroundings:
Designed by Marc Koehler Architects and awarded the Architectenweb Award 2024, ‘Republica’ embodies the concept of an ‘urban village’: a contemporary city oasis where living, working, and relaxing come together. The ground floor offers various amenities to make daily life convenient, including a charming café-deli for breakfast, lunch, or informal evening gatherings.

‘Republica’ also features a yoga studio with rooftop pool and sauna, a rare urban luxury ideal for relaxation. Everything is within walking distance, seamlessly combining convenience, quality, and privacy.

The Buiksloterham location provides a pleasant balance between urban dynamism and space. Both Amsterdam’s city center and major transport routes are easily accessible by car, bike, or public transport, while the home itself offers a modern, tranquil living environment.

Amsterdam-Noord is rapidly developing into one of the city’s most sought-after residential areas. The creative atmosphere of Buiksloterham, proximity to hotspots such as the A’DAM Tower and the NDSM area, and the unique combination of calm, space, and urban energy make this a top location. In the immediate vicinity, you will also find supermarkets, a healthcare center (including a general practitioner and dental practice), childcare facilities, and schools.
