Exclusive living in a characteristic canal house on the Leidsegracht!
Do you dream of living in a stylish and authentic canal house in the heart of Amsterdam? This exceptional and charming canal property of approximately 193 m², spread across no fewer than five floors and featuring a delightful patio garden, offers a unique combination of history, luxury, and comfort. Situated along one of the most beautiful stretches of the Leidsegracht, this 17th-century national monument exudes character and elegance. The property has been renovated with great attention to detail and high-quality materials, carefully preserving authentic features while combining them with modern living comfort.
Location & Accessibility
The location is simply ideal: on the atmospheric Leidsegracht, between the Prinsengracht and Keizersgracht. Here, you live in the cultural and culinary heart of Amsterdam. Within walking distance, you will find the lively Leidseplein, the charming Spiegelkwartier with its unique antique shops, and a wide selection of museums, theatres, and restaurants. For relaxation, the Vondelpark is only a few minutes away by bike. Accessibility is also excellent: several tram stops are just around the corner, and the Rokin and Vijzelgracht metro stations (North/South Line) can be reached within minutes on foot, offering quick connections to the Zuidas business district and Central Station. The Leidsegracht is part of Amsterdam’s iconic canal belt, which is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Layout:
The property can be accessed via the stately staircase entrance or through a private entrance at street level leading to the basement level.
Main Floor (Bel-etage):
Through the elegant marble hallway, you enter the spacious L-shaped living room. Thanks to the high ceilings (approximately 3.60 m) and large windows at both the front and rear, the space is filled with natural light. At the front, you can enjoy beautiful views over the canal, while at the rear, a cosy sitting area with a gas fireplace invites you to relax in comfort. This floor also includes a guest toilet.
Souterrain:
The souterrain has its own private entrance and is arranged as a spacious and inviting kitchen-diner with dining area. French doors open onto the sheltered patio garden: a wonderful place to enjoy peace and privacy in the middle of the city. The kitchen is fitted with various built-in appliances, and the entire floor benefits from comfortable underfloor heating. In addition, there is a separate toilet and a practical laundry room.
First floor:
This floor is entirely dedicated to the master suite. At the front is a generous dressing room overlooking the canal, which can also be used as an additional bedroom. Through the walk-in closet, you reach the luxurious bathroom, equipped with a freestanding bathtub, walk-in shower, washbasin, and toilet. The master bedroom is located at the quiet rear side of the property.
Second floor:
This floor features two spacious bedrooms, both with large windows and their own en-suite bathrooms fitted with a walk-in shower and washbasin. There is also a separate toilet on the landing.
Third floor:
Here you will find two additional bright bedrooms, both fitted with practical built-in wardrobes and access to the attic storage space. Ideal as extra storage or a play area for children.
