This stylish and exceptionally bright 112 m² apartment is located on the second floor of the monumental canal house “De Roode Roos” (1896), situated on the leafy and quiet Nicolaas Witsenkade. The home exudes a spacious, loft-like atmosphere and stands out for its high ceilings, large windows at both the front and rear, and an open layout with a direct connection to the outdoors.
Thanks to a high-quality renovation in 2020, using luxurious materials, the apartment is in excellent condition. Located on freehold land, the apartment features a spacious rear balcony of nearly 12 m², a French balcony with a beautiful canal view, an elevator, a private storage unit, and access to a communal bicycle storage.
Layout
Through the representative communal entrance, featuring marble details and a stately staircase, you reach the second floor easily by stairs or elevator. The apartment entrance opens into a spacious hallway with a separate toilet and a luxuriously finished bathroom with a bathtub. From the hallway, you enter the generous open living space.
At the front is the bright living room with open kitchen. Large windows and double French doors to the French balcony allow for abundant daylight and offer a lovely view of the canal with its magnificent mature trees. The ceiling height of over 3 meters and the recently refinished wooden flooring enhance the serene and airy atmosphere. The living room also features a charming, working fireplace that is seamlessly integrated into the design.
Centrally located is the spacious modern kitchen, executed in a neutral color palette with a robust countertop, high-end built-in appliances, and ample storage space. Adjacent to the kitchen, and separated by a glass partition, is a bright workspace that blends in perfectly and provides direct access to the rear balcony.
Also at the quiet rear side is the generous bedroom with French doors opening onto the balcony overlooking the inner gardens. An en-suite walk-in closet with custom-built wardrobes adds to the comfort.
The apartment also features a separate laundry room with connections for a washer and dryer, along with additional storage space. An extra storage area is accessible via a hatch under the floor.
