Prinsengracht 209-B

An exceptionally well presented two bedroom apartment of approximately 86 m², occupying an elevated first-floor position approximately four metres above street level in a national monument, with full-width views directly over the Prinsengracht. Recently comprehensively renovated to a high standard, the apartment combines the character of an Amsterdam canal house, including a 3.05 meters high beamed ceiling and original stained glass transom windows with a refined contemporary interior. Carefully selected finishes, including Iksel Decorative Arts wallpaper and French whiten oak flooring, complement the historic character of the apartment. The highly efficient layout is entirely on one level and includes generous living and dining spaces, two bedrooms and a private storage room on the ground floor. The property is situated on freehold land, with no ground lease.

Situated on the edge of the Jordaan and the historic canal belt, the apartment is within easy walking distance of the Noordermarkt, the Nine Streets and Haarlemmerdijk.

Layout: The apartment is reached via the building's recently renovated, wide staircase. Its elevated position, approximately four metres above street level, provides a sense of privacy while opening up the view across the canal. The entrance hall opens directly into the living room, where the full-width windows frame an uninterrupted view across the Prinsengracht and bring abundant natural light and afternoon sun into the space.

Original stained glass transom windows and the high wooden beamed ceiling, reaching approximately 3.05 metres, give the living room its distinctive historic character. These original elements are balanced by a restrained contemporary finish, with whiten French oak flooring and underfloor heating throughout. A subtle Iksel Decorative Arts wallpaper feature adds a further decorative accent.

The adjoining dining area comfortably accommodates a large dining table and features a further Iksel Decorative Arts wallpaper wall. The open kitchen connects naturally with the dining space and is centred around a cooking island, finished with white marble-look engineered stone across the island and countertops. It is equipped with high quality integrated appliances, including a combination oven, induction hob and discreetly integrated extraction.

At the quiet rear of the apartment are two bedrooms, both benefiting from morning sun and a pleasant, open outlook towards the rear of the historic Keizersgracht houses. The generously proportioned main bedroom features a botanical Iksel Decorative Arts wallpaper accent wall. The second bedroom is well suited as a guest bedroom, study or home office.

A spacious central hall provides extensive built in practical storage and access to the bathroom and separate toilet. Original stained glass transom windows above the bedroom doors allow morning light to filter through into the central hall, adding both natural light and architectural character. The bathroom is finished in a clean contemporary style and includes a large bathtub, walk-in shower and double washbasin. Connections for a washer and dryer machine are discreetly incorporated into the hall storage.

An additional private storage room of approximately 6 m² on the ground floor completes the property.
