Description
Discover this extraordinary 130m² apartment, located in one of the most enchanting spots along the canal, offering panoramic views that defy imagination, all on freehold land! Nestled at the corner of the prestigious Herengracht and the charming Brouwersgracht, this unique apartment presents a breathtaking, expansive vista stretching over the shimmering waters, characteristic quays, and stately canal houses. The basement also features its own front door, and the front bedroom can be closed off from the rest of the residence.
After much anticipation, the embankment restoration works have finally been completed, allowing residents to enjoy peace and views in one of the most beautiful locations in Amsterdam.
History:
The history of Herengracht 5 is steeped in heritage. Built in 1644 as a luxurious merchant's house with the distinctive layout of a warehouse on the upper floors, the original seventeenth-century structure underwent a transformation in 1889 into the classic residential house we know today, consisting of four refined apartments. The expansive property underwent subdivision in 2018, with the front foundation, restored in the same year, being in excellent condition. Amsterdam is globally renowned for its rich historic center, which was honored with UNESCO World Heritage status in 2010. It comes as no surprise that Herengracht is one of the primary spots within this extraordinary heritage.
Layout:
Enter this exclusive apartment through the stately main entrance and be greeted by the lush living/dining room with its unparalleled views of the confluence of Herengracht and Brouwersgracht. In addition to the breathtaking panorama, the generous ceiling height of 3.15 meters offers unprecedented grandeur. At the end of the corridor, you'll find a hallway with a separate toilet, outdoor space, and a well-equipped kitchen. This kitchen is fitted with all modern appliances, including an induction hob, wine climate cabinet, Quooker, refrigerator, freezer, and abundant storage space.
Via an elegant spiral staircase, crafted from graceful cast iron, descend to the atmospheric basement. This space boasts a height of 2.40 meters. The front bedroom features its own entrance, a bathroom with walk-in shower, toilet, washbasin, and ample storage, making it separable from the rest of the property. The second bedroom is centrally located in the basement. At the rear of the apartment, there's a second bathroom with bathtub, walk-in shower, toilet, and double washbasin vanity.
Location:
This property enjoys an extremely central location, amidst the quietest part of the Canal Belt, yet just a five-minute walk from the bustling Central Station. In the immediate vicinity, you'll find a wealth of dining and entertainment options, while the Haarlemmerstraat and the Nine Streets offer a diverse range of shops and boutiques. Your accessibility is optimal thanks to various transportation options with stops around Central Station, including the North/South line. The Dam Square, with its majestic New Church and the Royal Palace, as well as the vibrant Kalverstraat, are just minutes away on foot.
