Keizersgracht 129-A

A rare opportunity to live and work in a historic double-wide canal house on the prestigious Keizersgracht. This spacious double lower house of approximately 368 m² forms part of a characteristic national monument that holds a distinguished place within Amsterdam's architectural heritage. Situated in the heart of the canal belt (UNESCO World Heritage Site), the property offers an exceptional combination of space, light, and tranquillity, and can be fully finished and arranged to personal taste.

The property comprises the apartment rights Keizersgracht 129A-131D, which are both legally and structurally split. This creates maximum flexibility: the home can be used as one generous family residence, or as two independent apartments. As such, it appeals not only to owner-occupiers, but also to investors or those seeking to combine living and working under one roof.

The property is delivered in shell condition and comes with several bespoke designs, visualised through renders and alternative floor plans.

Layout: The property features two apartment rights and two separate entrances. An elegant natural stone stoop leads to the main entrance, which provides access to both the front and rear sections of the house. A second entrance is available via the internal garage on the canal side.

The ground floor offers space to create, among other things, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. At the front of the house is a multifunctional room, suitable for use as a garage, gym, gallery, reception area, or home office, with views over the canal and afternoon sunlight.

To the rear lies the back house, which feels like an oasis of calm in the middle of the city. Here, the (bed)rooms all enjoy direct access to the wide, sunny garden (approximately 130 m², facing south-east). These rooms look out onto the private courtyard garden, where peace and privacy take centre stage.

The property extends across the full width and length of approximately 27 metres, creating a remarkable sense of space and offering countless layout possibilities.

The basement is accessible via an internal staircase and can be used for additional functions, including a bathroom with steam cabin, a separate sauna area, and a wine cellar.

The bel-étage comprises the entrance hall with separate toilet and cloakroom, along with an additional room suitable as a bedroom or study, with adjoining patio. From the hall, the living room and kitchen are easily accessed, together forming the heart of the home. These rooms span the full width of approximately six window bays and are characterised by exceptional daylight throughout the day.

The combination of high ceilings, grand window bays, period rooms with mantelpieces, and original details such as decorative ceiling and wall elements and wooden floors gives the home a distinct character. The experience is defined by a rare combination of light, tranquillity, and privacy, right in the centre of Amsterdam.
