History of the building Before 1989, the municipality housed there until they moved to Waterlooplein and the town hall changed to hotel The Grand. The owners association is called The Fluweelenburg, named after the original name of the Oudezijds Voorburgwal, Fluweelenburgwal. A reference to the wealthy residents with their monumental properties. The VvE decided that soundproof floors should be installed between all floors and the elevator was modernized with a smaller machine. This gave extra space so that a second bathroom could be installed in this apartment. A roof terrace was created between the two roofs. 'Monumentenzorg' considers it a very special building. Not only does it have one of the widest and most decorative attics in Amsterdam (the crowning of the facade), the wall at the back probably dates from 1690 given the small bricks. The marble corridor is a showpiece from 1735, in Louis the Fourteenth style. And the staircase is also monumental. Because it is a National Monument, not all interventions are allowed. For example, the wheel in the master bedroom must remain. This was used in the 18th century to hoist up both velvet and tobacco. Layout Stately entrance on the ground floor. Fourth floor Entrance on 4th floor with elevator. Entry into the hall with access to the living room and kitchen. The living room has three wide windows overlooking the roofs of the city and the canal. The windows are double glazed. All windows can be opened and from morning to evening the light enters the house. Between the living room and the hall are cherrywood doors that can close off the rooms from each other. The open living kitchen is spacious and offers a view through to the living room. Here are windows that let in lots of light. The kitchen has a refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, oven and microwave (Gaggenau). There is a four burner gas stove and a wok burner. In addition, there is plenty of cabinet space. Fifth floor A fixed staircase provides access to the upper (5th) floor. Here are wide original floorboards and a beautiful old monumental wheel adorns one of the two bedrooms. Both bedrooms have a shower and sink. There is a toilet and a washer and dryer hookup with again lots of closet space. Here is access to the elevator machine room. The bedrooms are separated by a hall. From here you can use a staircase to the large roof terrace.
