Description
Lovely bright 2-room apartment of 39m2 (45m2 BVO) in a prime location on Nieuwe Herengracht, situated on freehold land.
Would you like to live on one of Amsterdam’s most beautiful canals, in a surprisingly quiet spot right in the city centre? This part of Nieuwe Herengracht borders the Amstel River and the green Plantage neighbourhood. Super central, yet without the crowds and tourist traffic you find elsewhere in the historic centre. This bright 2-room apartment (approx. 40 m²) offers canal-front living with plenty of privacy: across the canal you overlook the H’ART Museum (formerly the Hermitage), meaning no direct views from neighbouring properties. The large front windows can be fully opened, making the canal feel like an extension of your living room. Many neighbours make full use of this unique setting: placing a small picnic table by the water or enjoying dinner on a bench along the Amstel. No private garden, but arguably the most beautiful outdoor space Amsterdam has to offer: the canal itself.
The Amstel River, Stopera, Waterlooplein, Carré Theatre, Hortus Botanicus, Artis Zoo and Wertheimpark are all within walking distance. An ideal location for anyone who wants to enjoy the historic heart of Amsterdam without dealing with the daily hustle and bustle.
Layout:
Through the entrance you enter the open-plan living area where the kitchen and living room seamlessly flow together. Thanks to the large windows, this is a naturally bright space. The kitchen features a large cooking island, a 4-burner stove, dishwasher, oven and fridge-freezer combination. There is also a washer-dryer combination in the kitchen, as well as ample storage space.
At the rear of the apartment you will find the bedroom, with space for a double bed and wardrobes. The modern bathroom is fitted with a walk-in shower, toilet, washbasin with vanity unit and underfloor heating.
A shared storage space is available on the first floor.
