herengracht 12-hs, 1015 bk amsterdam

we are proud to present this three-floor property (approx. 327 m²) in a historic, listed building on one of the most beautiful parts of the herengracht. this canal house is a former patrician residence; it dates back to 1615 and is known by the name 'bahia in brasil'. the property is approximately 327 m² and has five bedrooms and four bathrooms. it also boasts a separate studio with its own entrance; it would work well for an au pair or as a home office. the beautiful west-facing garden of almost 250 m² was designed under the supervision of garden architect heart for gardens and includes a number of historic trees that guarantee maximum privacy. the property's renovation was completed in march 2020 after more than two years of intensive work - under the supervision of architectural firm studio ruim. no expense or effort was spared, which is reflected in the very high quality of the materials used.

location:
this luxury apartment can be found at the beginning of the herengracht, close to the corner with the brouwersgracht. the property is centrally located for a whole range of great boutiques, restaurants and cafés and within walking distance of the popular noordermarkt, westermarkt and lindengrachtmarkt. the property benefits from excellent accessibility too, both by public transport (by tram, bus and train), and by car (the a10 ring road, exit s 103 or s114).

layout

ground floor

natural stone steps lead to the property's original front door and from there to the house's spectacular hall. the italian floor has been cut from one piece of marble and laid in a mirror pattern with each panel connecting up seamlessly to the panel next to it. the walls and ceiling feature the original, renovated mouldings and ornaments. the apartment's cloakroom has been fitted with two tall, custom-made, dark-wood wall cupboards. the hall's width and height make it a very impressive space.
the right side of the hall gives access to a canal room, which has a beautiful view of the canal. this front room has a gas fire, a wooden versailles floor and a handmade built-in cupboard. the ceiling is a real eye-catcher: a steel light-fixture frame has been cast in the shape of an ornament that is a perfect combination of classic and modern. given the architect's extensive use of glass, you can enjoy a view of the large back garden even from the canal room. an anteroom with a home bar and a wine cabinet leads through to the living room. this unique room has an attractive gas fire and beautiful walls finished with 'stretched' wallpaper, using the original method that was applied in canal houses from the 17th century onwards. the wooden floor here has also been laid in a classic versailles pattern. this room has a cast-steel ornament on the ceiling too and an integrated home cinema system with a screen concealed in the ceiling. what better place to watch films than in your own cinema?
the living room also leads through to the hall, from where the annex and the entrance to the chic dining room can be accessed as well. the dining room has an attractive gas fire too and various original built-in cupboards and mouldings. the dining room has a breathtaking view of the private back garden, which is almost 30 metres deep. this room also gives access to the apartment's half-open bulthaup kitchen, which includes a kitchen island. the kitchen has a comprehensive range of (gaggenau) built-in appliances, including a five-burner gas hob, a refrigerator, a freezer with an ice maker, a quooker, two wine climate cabinets, an oven, a steam oven and a dishwasher, and has been finished with beautiful marble worktops. french doors in the kitchen open out onto a beautifully landscaped, west-facing back garden of almost 250m² where you can enjoy the sun all day long.

in short, this property is flooded with light and all the rooms in it are connected or can be separated off from each other.

first floor

a staircase leads from the hall to the first floor in the annex. even the windows alongside the staircase are beautiful in this property. the master bedroom is on this floor and has a wonderful, unobstructed view of the garden. the master bedroom has its own bathroom, with a rain shower, two washbasins and a toilet, and a walk-in wardrobe too.

lower ground floor

the staircase in the hall on the ground floor leads to the lower ground floor. there are two spacious bedrooms at the back of this floor, both of which have various custom-made, built-in wardrobes. the hall on this floor also gives access to a separate toilet room with a washbasin. the first luxury bathroom is on this floor too and has a bath, rain shower and washbasin and, like all the other bathrooms, has been finished with beautiful marble tiles and wall finishes. the third bedroom on this floor is centrally located and has french doors that open out onto the patio. this bedroom has its own bathroom, which has a rain shower, washbasin and toilet. the hall on this floor also gives access to a storage room where you will find all the apartment's technical systems and also a built-in cupboard that houses a tumble dryer and washing machine. the apartment's fifth bedroom, which has its own bathroom and toilet, is at the front of this floor. the property's second entrance door would make it easy to separate off this bedroom from the rest of the apartment. it would be the ideal space for an au pair or a home office!

to summarise: this beautiful apartment has been finished with the most exclusive materials and has a spacious, beautifully landscaped and very sunny, west-facing garden. it's also located alongside one of the most beautiful canals in amsterdam! the apartment is pristine: there's nothing for you to do but unpack.

herengracht:
named after the rulers of the city: the heren regeerders, who governed amsterdam in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. back in 1612, a ditch was widened to become the canal we know today; it was the first of the three main canals. the section beyond the leidsegracht forms part of the canal expansion of 1658; the nieuwe herengracht does too (source: stadsatlas amsterdam).
