Herengracht 116-C

This spacious residence of approximately 258 m² is situated at the rear of an 18th-century canal house, spread over two floors and a deep west-facing garden 146 m². The property stands out for its open layout, additional south-facing windows, and its stately private entrance. The current layout offers potential for reconfiguration, with renders illustrating a possible design including four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sauna, and a steam cabin. Located on a quieter stretch of the Herengracht, within short distance of the Haarlemmerstraat and the Jordaan, it is only a short walk from Amsterdam’s Central Station and main tourist attractions.

Layout: The stately entrance, with original decorative features, is reached through the canal-house hallway, providing access to the lower two floors of the back-house and private garden.

The ground floor forms the main living level and opens from a spacious entrance hall into the open-plan kitchen overlooking the garden. The living and dining areas form the central part of the home. French doors provide access to the generous west-facing garden with 3 separate seating areas.

At the rear of the ground floor, there is a separate space, suitable as, for example, a gym or additional (bed)room, with an en-suite bathroom equipped with a shower and steam cabin.

Via the internal staircase in the hallway, the bel étage is accessible, offering approximately 144 m² of open space. Based on alternative floor plans and renders, this level can be arranged to include, among other things, a master bedroom with walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom, an office space, three bedrooms, and a second bathroom with a separate toilet.

The property is largely fitted with double glazing and partly equipped with underfloor heating.
