HET SWEERS HUYS | Het Sweers Huys embodies modern living within a historical ambiance. Under the guidance of the owners and with the supervision of restoration architect ir. Wolbert Vroom and his team, this stunning canal house was completely restored and renovated between 2017 and 2020. The result is a historic and romantic canal house that meets all modern luxury and technical standards of today. The renovation was carried out with the utmost attention to detail, respecting its history and making timeless choices. With a total area of 485 square meters, this property offers ultimate living comfort spread over six and a half multifunctional and well-arranged floors. The backyard, an oasis of tranquility amidst the bustling city, completes this unique living experience. Thanks to its location and orientation, the property enjoys abundant natural light and offers beautiful sightlines that enhance the quintessential canal house feeling.

Tour The property features a meticulously restored façade that makes an immediate impression with its five-meter-high windows and imposing entrance portal. The stately entrance, with an exterior staircase made of Belgian natural stone and a distinguished front door, leads to a magnificent hall. This bright hall, adorned with marble, is richly decorated with elegant windows and has a height of five meters, creating an impressive first impression and setting the tone for the rest of the property. The hall offers a first glimpse of the rear corridor. The bel-etage includes a living kitchen and, on the canal side, the reception room. This impressive reception room, with its over five-meter-high ceilings, unique paintings, and a fireplace, is a delight to the eyes. The large windows, divided into twelve panes, let in abundant sunlight. The room, richly ornamented in the Empire style, has perfect proportions that prevent one from feeling lost. This space is connected to the rear living kitchen via an en-suite and double doors. The living kitchen features a subdued, sleek Boffi kitchen and has a more intimate atmosphere due to its lower ceilings compared to the reception room. The design of this and the other Boffi kitchens in the house is by Dis Studio. The kitchen, executed in a beautiful emerald green color and equipped with Gaggenau kitchen appliances, invites cozy family dinners, thanks in part to the presence of a fireplace. From this kitchen, one has a beautiful view of the garden. On the same floor, at the rear (garden side), there is a second kitchen. This kitchen, connected to a terrace and the city garden through French doors, is frequently used by the owners for garden meals and gatherings, where catering is well facilitated. The garden house The garden house, most likely built or enhanced in the early 19th century, exudes a charming and imaginative atmosphere with its distinctive latticework. These characteristic architectural details served as inspiration for the interior restoration, where historical elements were carefully preserved and combined with modern amenities. The garden house is highly versatile and equipped with all conveniences, such as sanitary facilities, a kitchen, and heating. This makes it suitable as a guest house, nanny apartment, home office, or even as a retreat for yoga or fitness. With its flexible layout and comfortable amenities, the garden house offers countless possibilities to meet various needs and lifestyles. The entire property now comprises six living spaces and six rooms that can be used as bedrooms. The second floor can be easily adapted, creating two spacious bedrooms. The use of the property is still entirely flexible due to the private entrance to the basement and the layout of the attic floor. What the residents will miss “The house has many surprising spaces with their own atmosphere. When we are just the two of us, we enjoy dining in the small kitchen that adjoins the garden; in summer with the door open, in winter with the candles lit. The ‘large’ kitchen is perfect for meals with more people, and the reception room at the front is especially delightful in winter, with the fireplace burning, for a drink with a book or for a larger gathering.” Neighborhood The property is situated in one of the most charming and historical parts of Amsterdam. This neighborhood is renowned for its picturesque and distinguished canals, beautiful architecture, and vibrant atmosphere. It is a place where history, culture, and contemporary trends seamlessly merge. The Keizersgracht itself is one of Amsterdam's most famous canals and stretches through the heart of the city. Along the canal, elegant townhouses, graceful bridges, and lush trees form an idyllic backdrop. The view of the canal is breathtaking and offers new surprises every day. The water reflects the sun and has its own dynamic.
