Keizersgracht 7881017 EC AmsterdamAmstelveldbuurt

Keizersgracht 788 A complete canal house with five bedrooms and an exceptionally deep city garden, situated on the Keizersgracht in a highly sought-after section near the Amstel and Utrechtsestraat. A property of this calibre is rarely offered for rent in its entirety. Behind the classical façade lies a spacious and comfortable family home, where high ceilings, large windows, decorative mouldings, wooden floors and fireplaces are combined with a calm, contemporary interior. The deep, green garden offers a rare combination of peace and privacy in the heart of the city. LAYOUT Ground floor / garden level The garden level has its own entrance from the street and forms the informal, everyday heart of the house. At the front is a pleasant playroom/family room. From the hallway, with cloakroom space, fitted cupboards and a separate toilet, you continue through to the large kitchen. The kitchen is a true living space and features a large central cooking island, marble worktops and an extensive range of built-in appliances. There is ample room for cooking, sitting at the island or entertaining guests. Adjoining the kitchen is the long dining room, which extends all the way towards the garden. The large dining table makes this an ideal setting for elaborate dinners and long evenings with family and friends. From the dining room there is direct access to the garden. And here lies one of the house’s greatest surprises: the exceptionally deep and green rear garden. Several terraces, mature trees and lush planting create an almost countryside-like atmosphere. The garden also contains several practical storage spaces. First floor / bel-etage The official main entrance to the house is reached via the characteristic front steps on the Keizersgracht. At the front is a spacious study, ideal as a home office, library or quiet study room. At the rear is the generous sitting room with high ceilings, large windows, elegant ornamentation and a characterful fireplace. The classical details are combined with contemporary furnishings, creating a space that feels both elegant and extremely comfortable. French doors provide access from the sitting room to the rear roof terrace. This is a wonderful additional outdoor space overlooking the greenery and an ideal place for coffee, lunch or drinks. Second floor The second floor is entirely arranged as a private master floor, offering a high degree of privacy. At the rear is the spacious principal bedroom, adjoining an extensive dressing room with ample built-in storage. At the front is the impressive bathroom. The freestanding bathtub positioned by the tall windows forms a striking focal point. The bathroom also features a walk-in shower, washbasin unit and toilet. The combination of wooden floors, bespoke joinery, natural stone and abundant daylight gives this floor a luxurious, almost hotel-like atmosphere. Third floor The third floor comprises two spacious bedrooms, one at the front and one at the rear. Centrally positioned on this floor is a second bathroom with bathtub, shower, washbasin and toilet. There is also a separate laundry room with space for a washing machine and dryer. This floor is therefore ideally suited as a private sleeping level for children or guests. Fourth floor The fourth floor also offers a surprising amount of space and includes a further two bedrooms, bringing the total number of bedrooms to five. Between the two bedrooms is the third bathroom, fitted with a bathtub, shower, toilet and washbasin. The exposed wooden beams and roof structure give this floor a charming and characterful atmosphere. The rooms are perfectly suited as children’s bedrooms or guest rooms, but could of course also be used as a study, fitness room or hobby space. Fifth floor The top floor is reached via a fixed staircase. From here there is access to a small roof terrace, a special additional place to enjoy the open air and views across Amsterdam’s rooftops. GARDEN The garden almost deserves a chapter of its own. It is deep, green and remarkably quiet for such a central location. Mature trees, climbing plants, terraces and several seating areas create a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. Directly behind the house there is ample space for outdoor dining, while further into the garden there are more secluded and private corners. A rare luxury in the centre of Amsterdam. LOCATION The Keizersgracht hardly needs an introduction. Here you live in the heart of Amsterdam’s historic canal district, surrounded by monumental buildings, distinctive shops, excellent restaurants and everything that makes the city so desirable. The Utrechtsestraat, Reguliersgracht and Amstel are all within easy reach, as are a wide range of cafés, restaurants, delicatessens and cultural amenities. Despite this central location, the house feels surprisingly peaceful. At the front lies the characteristic Amsterdam canal, while at the rear there is an entirely private and green world of its own. It is precisely this combination that makes Keizersgracht 788 so exceptional: living in the very heart of Amsterdam, without feeling as though you are in the middle of the city.
