Keizersgracht 290-A1016 EW AmsterdamFelix Meritisbuurt

Family home (fully furnished) with a view over the canal. But above all with light, tranquillity and privacy. Spacious garden with morning and evening sun. The foundation of the building is completely renewed. The same goes for all installations (electricity, gas, water and sewage). As if that were not enough: the owners association has also had the rest of the building thoroughly renovated in recent years by a team of great professionals. Love and care for the monument were central to this. But of course also carefree living for many decades. The house is almost completely ‘off gas’ and has energy label-B. WELCOME Communal entrance with keyless access control and marble floor with heating. Very high quality paintwork in the common areas and in the apartment, as well as on the outside of the building. In the central hall are the storage rooms and passenger elevator for the upper apartments, as well as the meter cupboard. A second entrance door provides access to the beautiful common staircase. There you will also find the private storage room of number 290 A, in addition to the entrance to the apartment itself. Once inside, there is a hall with the internal staircase, a guest toilet, a wardrobe closet and a laundry room with Miele appliances and built-in cabinets. COOK Continuing to the rear and situated on the garden is the cozy kitchen diner, with separate store room. The kitchen has plenty of cabinets. The built-in appliances are from Miele (microwave and no less than two dishwashers), Boretti (gas stove with two ovens) and Siemens (refrigerator). Numerous built-in lighting options (LED), individually dimmable and centrally switched. The wall opposite the kitchen unit has niches that provide excellent space for trinkets and small artifacts. A gas fireplace is also installed in that wall. OUTSIDE At the rear of the garden is a compact but graceful garden house (approx 7m2), which is beautifully lit as soon as it gets dark outside. Due to the presence of two terraces during the day it is always possible to sit somewhere in the sun or in the shade. The (silent) outdoor units of the air conditioning are ingeniously incorporated into the flower boxes. In this garden it is wonderful to relax, in great contrast to the bustling life on the street side. Here the birds whistle and silence lives. SOUTERRAIN The internal staircase of the apartment provides access to both the basement and the upper floors. The basement (under the kitchen) forms a separate domain with a spacious bedroom/guest room equipped with private bathroom. Delightful incursion of daylight through the plate glass in the terrace. Also here there is a separate toilet and a deep storage closet. LIVING The living room is located on the first floor at the front and offers a beautiful view over the canal. With a height of more than 3 meters and a gas fireplace, this is the ideal place to enjoy all that can be seen outside – but without being overlooked. The generous size of this room adds to the luxurious feeling that comes with a canal house. On one side of the landing between the living room and the back house there is a separate room where TV can be watched or which can be used as a library. On the other side is a long wall with built-in closets up to the ceiling. On each upper floor there is a landing with a toilet. In the house there is also a ‘laundry chute’ that allows efficient collection of laundry downstairs. Access doors are located on the landings. SLEEPING AND BATHING In the master bedroom, one immediately notices the amazing ceiling height of more than 4 meters. Above the bed is a mezzanine, which provides the feeling of security. Its upper surface area is over 20m2. On the mezzanine there is a wall with closets. Through the high windows, bedroom and mezzanine offer a wonderful view of the courtyard gardens at the rear. At the master bedroom there is a luxurious ensuite bathroom equipped with bathtub, large walk-in shower and two sinks. Although the headroom on the mezzanine is fine (almost 2 meters), the square meters thereof do not count for the usable area of the house. Meanwhile, its total usable area exceeds 300m2. Through the internal staircase can also be reached the top floor. There are the third and fourth bedrooms, again with a private bathroom. On the landing again a separate toilet and also two closets. ENVIRONMENT This dream house is located on the beautiful Keizersgracht in the heart of Amsterdam city center, right in the middle of the popular 9 (shopping) streets. That means a great selection of hip boutique stores, museums, restaurants and cafes. But also from Dam Square, Leidseplein and Westerkerk. In addition, Amsterdam South, West and East can be reached within 10 'cycling minutes'. The highways are nearby and public transport connections excellent. Tramstops of lines 13, 17 and 5 are within 5 minutes walking distance. And the stops of lines 1, 2, 12 and 19 are only 10 minutes away on foot. Parking is easy at Europarking, where both 24/7 and weekend/evening season tickets are available. ASSOCIATION OF OWNERS The building Keizersgracht 290 comprises 5 apartments, of which (the apartment right of) this house constitutes the 461st undivided share. The owners association operates on a pay-as-you-go basis. AIRBNB exploitation of apartments is restricted in the articles of association. The monthly contribution for fixed costs (insurance, plant maintenance subscriptions, window cleaner, cleaning areas for common use) averaged about 400 over the years 2019-2023. In addition, numerous maintenance projects were carried out during that period (as, incidentally, during previous years). Over 2019-2023, the contribution for these (after netting with Housing Subsidy for National Monuments) averaged about € 600 per month. This ‘catch-up’ of overdue maintenance has now been completed. At the end of 2024, the VVE has reserves for painting work in the courtyard, which is planned for the next few years. The maintenance is monitored by Monumentenwacht: all its documentation is available for inspection. In addition, an building inspection will soon be performed by SOCOTEC. Its report will also be available to a buyer. ?
