Description
Prinsengracht 788-O – Authentic Canal Apartment in a Prime Location!
Living on one of Amsterdam’s most beautiful canals, directly opposite the peaceful Amstelveld, around the corner from Utrechtsestraat and just steps from the Amstel River, the Magere Brug and Carré. This characteristic double ground-floor apartment of 93 m² is situated on freehold land and offers a quiet living experience right in the vibrant city centre. A unique opportunity to fully modernize this characteristic canal-side apartment to your own taste, in one of Amsterdam's most sought-after locations.
Living on Prinsengracht – historic, lively & comfortable
The location of this apartment is truly exceptional. Set on the Prinsengracht, directly facing the Amstelveld, at the intersection of the Spiegelgracht district and the Amstel Quarter. Within walking distance, you’ll find Utrechtsestraat with its exclusive boutiques, specialty shops and popular cafés such as Marcella and Bouwman. Culture lovers are perfectly positioned here: the Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Carré Theatre, the Stopera and the Concertgebouw are all within cycling distance. The Vondelpark, the Nine Streets, Leidseplein and Rembrandtplein are also nearby.
Accessibility is excellent: the Vijzelgracht metro station (North/South Line) is just around the corner—ideal for quick connections to the Zuidas, Central Station or Schiphol Airport. Tram and bus stops are also close by, as well as main access roads towards the A10, A2 and A4.
Layout & Description
Bel-etage – light-filled living with views
Via the exterior staircase you reach the private entrance on the bel-etage level, stepping into the hallway. From here you enter the bright living room with high ceilings (2.80 m) and large windows at both the front and rear. At the front, you have beautiful views over the canal and the Amstelveld. At the rear is the kitchen and a separate toilet. French doors open onto the charming terrace — perfect for enjoying your morning coffee.
Souterrain – peaceful bedrooms and access to the garden
An internal staircase leads to the souterrain, where two well-sized bedrooms are located. The larger bedroom is at the front and features multiple built-in wardrobes. The second bedroom sits in the middle of the floor. At the rear you’ll find the bathroom, a separate toilet, and a storage room with space for the central heating boiler and washing machine. The bathroom also provides access to the private city garden.
The apartment offers an excellent opportunity to modernize it entirely to your own taste. A unique chance to create your ideal home in this beautiful location.
Homeowners’ Association (VvE)
The VvE consists of 4 apartment rights, is active, and has a multi-year maintenance plan (MJOP) running until 2034. Administration is managed internally. The monthly service costs are € 90. The VvE holds an annual meeting and has approximately € 29,000 in reserve.
Freehold Land
The property is located on *eigen grond* (freehold land) — so **no ground lease** applies.
Renovation
Good to keep in mind: the property requires extensive renovation and modernisation. At the same time, this gives you the opportunity to create a home entirely to your own taste and preferences. Depending on the desired level of finish, a substantial investment should be taken into account. For a relatively basic renovation, a budget starting at approximately €150,000 would be realistic. Naturally, the final costs will depend heavily on the buyer’s choices, preferences and any additional work required.
