Description

Scenic Canal Apartment

Welcome to an exceptional two-bedroom, two-bathroom canal apartment in a historic monument building dating back to the 1500s in the heart of Amsterdam. Nestled along one of the city's oldest and most picturesque canals, this residence seamlessly combines the charm of historic architecture with inspired contemporary design, offering a truly unique and memorable experience.

Upon arriving at the small stone staircase leading to the building's entrance, guests are immediately immersed in the distinctive atmosphere of this remarkable property. Ascending the narrow wooden spiral staircase, a relic from the 1500s, the journey to the apartment on the second floor becomes an adventure.

The second-floor living area welcomes you to a loft-like haven with a beamed ceiling, expansive windows, and a centrally located kitchen. From every corner of this space, guests enjoy breathtaking views of the scenic canal, observing its daily activities. The four large windows at the front offer uninterrupted vistas of the historic Singel canal, creating an ever-changing backdrop.

The culinary haven of the kitchen provides all the amenities for a delightful cooking experience. Should the nearby restaurants fail to entice, residents have no excuse not to cook up a storm in this well-equipped space.

A steel spiral staircase leads to a small landing on the second floor, revealing two private and spacious bedrooms, each with its en suite bathroom. Nestled within the eaves of the roof, these rooms exude character with high ceilings, original wooden beams, and loft spaces above accessible via charming wooden staircases. The study/workspaces seamlessly integrate into the bedrooms, creating a perfect environment for work, yoga, or pilates.

Throughout this floor, double-glazed windows ensure a peaceful and comfortable living environment. The apartment is strategically located just steps from the vibrant "De 9 Straatjes" neighbourhood, renowned for its buzzing bars, restaurants, Dutch cafes, galleries, and boutiques. Explore Amsterdam's rich heritage and hidden gems during the day, and indulge in the evening's entertainment at cabaret and jazz clubs, theatres, and world-class restaurants.

Public transport options are easily accessible, and the A-10 ring road is conveniently within reach. Please note that parking in this central location is subject to paid permits, as specified by the municipality of Amsterdam, ensuring a hassle-free and enjoyable stay in this iconic city.
