Muiden is home to many monuments and historical buildings, such as the Muiderslot and "de Groote Zeesluis". You have a view of this lock. In short, living in a perfect atmosphere with peace, space and yet close to the bustling Amsterdam. The canal house at Sluis 9 is exceptionally spacious: 187 m˛ of usable surface area (gross floor area 231 m˛), divided over four residential floors. In 2010, the house was completely renovated and finished to a high standard and fully equipped with double glazing, including new bathrooms, new toilets, a new kitchen, new front doors, new installations and electricity, new wooden floors and double glazing throughout. The spacious basement under the entire house is surprising.

Once inside, the amount of light and space is immediately noticeable.

Location and Muiden
Muiden consists of a historic centre, with the popular new residential area De Krijgsman to the east. The charming centre has very cosy terraces on the other side of the lock. From the town at the front door you have a beautiful view of this! There are plenty of water sports, marinas and recreational opportunities to experience and see. Cosy catering establishments and restaurants right around the corner. Nature and relaxation a few minutes by bike. A pleasant living atmosphere, with houses on private land. And all of that just one exit after Amsterdam IJburg.
As a fortified town, Muiden is located at a place where two water lines meet: the New Dutch Water Line from the Biesbosch and the Defence Line of Amsterdam around the capital. By opening locks and dikes, entire strips of land could be flooded until the beginning of the last century.
Even today you can see that Muiden was of great strategic importance. You can still find traces of this everywhere: the barracks in the centre, a network of forts and old underground storage areas under grassy hills. And not to forget: the beautiful and famous Muiderslot! At Sluis 9 you live in the middle of this historical area.
At the Sluis and on the water at Muiden there is a lot to experience every day. Surfing, sailing lessons, kite surfing, sailing with a sloop or blowing out during a long sailing trip on the IJmeer. But you can also enjoy the water from the shore. Numerous events are organized throughout the year.
Accessibility
The accessibility of Muiden is perfect: with its own exit on the A1, you can reach the town from Amsterdam Zuid in 6 (!) minutes. And unique: at this house on the Sluis, you can park your car behind the house, in your own parking space.
Amenities
Within walking distance is a local supermarket, in Muiden the Krijgsman an Albert Heijn and in Maxis Muiden you can do extensive shopping in this XL shopping center
