Keizersgracht 254-C1016 EV AmsterdamFelix Meritisbuurt

A pleasant and well-appointed apartment on the Keizersgracht, located on the 2nd and 3rd (attic) floors of the front house. The apartment is wide, approximately 133 m² in size, and features a roof terrace at the rear (light well) as well as a storage room in the basement. Keizersgracht 254 is a national monument, a classic canal house built in 1740 with a characteristic sandstone front façade. This façade is a raised cornice façade with a central elevation featuring a decorated panel around the hoisting beam. At the level of this apartment, the central window section has a lower sill height. The property is situated on freehold land. The building consists of four apartment rights (residential units). Via the classical stoop with a tripod baluster and matching entrance door, you reach the apartment through a decorated hallway and a beautiful staircase. The apartment occupies the entire third and fourth floors of the front house. Upon entering, there is a spacious toilet with a small washbasin and a meter cupboard. The entrance hallway flows harmoniously into the rear suite. Adjacent to this are the elegant living room on the canal side and the kitchen at the rear facing the light well. In all rooms the (partly original) exposed beam ceilings are visible. The rooms are separated by glass-paneled doors with muntins. The living areas feature parquet flooring with a decorative border, while the kitchen has a distinctive tiled floor. The sitting room on the canal side is wide and features a classic fireplace and a central window that is larger than the other two. These windows are fitted with monumental insulating glass, ensuring comfortable living conditions and offering beautiful views toward the Westerkerk and Leidsestraat. Because of the wide opening between the rooms in the suite, the living area feels spacious and open, with the living room flowing into the open kitchen. The kitchen, with wooden fronts, is equipped with a dishwasher, five-burner gas stove, and extractor hood. The central heating boiler is located in a built-in cupboard. The sleeping floor also offers a great deal of atmosphere and space. The tall roof structure is clearly visible throughout, adding character and charm and reinforcing the historic feel of the property. The master bedroom on the canal side has been opened up to the ridge of the roof. The insulated wooden floor and window with shutters give the impression that time has stood still. The adjoining dressing room with washbasin is a perfect addition. From the bedroom, a loft storage area can be accessed that extends toward the rear, an ideal place for school books, photo albums, and skis. At the rear is a spacious second bedroom. This very quiet room faces the light well and has two built-in wardrobes. Next to it is the large bathroom with a washbasin unit containing space for a washer and dryer. There is also a second toilet and a very comfortable walk-in shower. Here too, parts of the roof structure remain visible. From the bathroom you can access the sheltered roof terrace facing west. A fixed staircase leads to the attic loft within the roof. This space contains another atmospheric bedroom with a washbasin as well as additional storage space. The apartment is equipped with central heating and insulating glazing (monumental glass).
