Highest point for 401 rental properties in Singelblok

24 May 2024

Development combination CZAN (developer Blauwhoed and area developer AM) festively celebrated the highest point of Singelblok with partners and employees at the construction site last week. The 401 homes, intended for social, middle and private sector rental, will be realized in the Elzenhagen Zuid residential area, Amsterdam Noord. This makes a wide range available for home seekers in Amsterdam.

Very diverse housing program in the rental segment

With its diversity of apartments in the rental segment, the Singelblok offers homes for a wide group of home seekers. Vesteda will soon rent out 171 private sector and 14 medium-priced rental properties. Eigen Haard rents 75 social and 75 medium-priced rental homes and 66 care homes to welfare organization PerMens. In addition, there are 101 parking spaces and 3 business premises. The realization is in the hands of Heddes Bouw & Ontwikkeling. The building is scheduled to be completed in 2025. Together, the parties involved want this part of Amsterdam North to become a good, liveable and varied place where new residents quickly feel at home.
