MONUMENTAL 137 M² DUPLEX APARTMENT WITH SUNNY SOUTH-FACING BALCONY ON THE EDGE OF HISTORIC WEESP Some homes are more than just a place to live. Herensingel 25 is one of them. A truly unique and atmospheric duplex apartment where history, character and space come together in an exceptional way. Situated on the edge of the historic town centre of Weesp, in a municipal monument dating back to 1876 and locally known as one of the characteristic "Amsterdam Houses", this property offers a living experience that is rarely found today. Offering approximately 137 m² of living space spread over the second and third floors, a private entrance, a sunny south-facing balcony and an impressive collection of original features, this home feels like a journey back in time. Nearly all authentic details have been preserved, allowing the grandeur of the nineteenth century to remain fully intact. Original marble fireplaces, stained-glass windows, ornamental ceilings, authentic door fittings, decorative staircase railings, en-suite doors and original wooden flooring together create a home that has been carefully preserved with great respect for its history. What makes this property even more exceptional is the impressive ceiling height of approximately 2.95 metres on both the second and third floors. Combined with the large windows, this creates a remarkable sense of light, space and elegance throughout the home. The property forms part of a designated municipal monument and represents a tangible piece of Weesp's rich history. Here, you are not simply buying an apartment, but a home with a story. Despite its historic character, the property benefits from an Energy Label C, which is particularly noteworthy for a building of this age and contributes positively to overall comfort and energy efficiency. LAYOUT The apartment is accessed through its private entrance via a characteristic Amsterdam-style staircase. SECOND FLOOR The second floor forms the heart of the home and radiates the charm of a bygone era. The original layout has been preserved and consists of three beautiful en-suite rooms currently arranged as a living room, sitting room and kitchen. The living and sitting rooms are truly impressive. Nearly three-metre-high ceilings, richly detailed ornamental plasterwork, original stained-glass doors and beautiful marble fireplaces create an atmosphere rarely encountered today. One of the fireplaces is still operational, adding both warmth and character to the home. The original en-suite configuration provides a natural flow between the rooms while allowing each space to maintain its own identity. Views over the Herensingel and the historic architecture of Weesp further enhance the unique living experience. At the rear of the property is the kitchen, renovated in 2021 and equipped with various built-in appliances, including a dishwasher. From here, you have direct access to the spacious south-facing balcony of approximately 9 m². The balcony enjoys sunshine throughout much of the day and is equipped with an awning for additional comfort during warmer months. From here you enjoy beautiful views over historic Weesp and a side view towards the River Vecht. A cloakroom area and separate toilet are also located on this floor. THIRD FLOOR The third floor also benefits from the impressive ceiling height of approximately 2.95 metres, creating a wonderful sense of space. This level offers three generously sized bedrooms and a spacious intermediate room, ideal as a home office, library, hobby room or walk-in wardrobe.
