Spacious Monumental Canal Apartment with Three Levels and Private Terrace

Welcome to Keizersgracht 333 C, a characterful and spacious apartment located at the rear of a beautiful listed building on one of Amsterdam's most beloved canals. This property combines historic charm with modern living comfort and is situated on freehold land, which is a significant advantage in the Amsterdam property market. The apartment spans approximately 132 square meters across three residential levels, creating a particularly spacious and surprising layout. The building dates back to 1710 and is classified as a protected cityscape and monument, ensuring that the historical character of the property is preserved for future generations. Access to the apartment is via the stately entrance steps on the Keizersgracht, leading to an impressive communal hall featuring authentic details and a marble floor. The elegant front door to apartment 333 C is located on this level. Upon entering, you find a hallway with access to a storage room and double doors that open into the main living area. The living room with open plan kitchen is exceptionally generous and forms the heart of the apartment. A classic wooden herringbone floor runs throughout the space, adding warmth and character. The ceiling height of approximately 3.40 meters and the large windows ensure the space is flooded with natural light throughout the day. The windows offer a pleasant view over the quiet courtyard garden and the rear facades of the Herengracht, providing a peaceful outlook despite the central location. The living room includes a fireplace and offers ample space for both seating and dining areas. A notable feature is the playful sunken area with a lower ceiling, which creates a warm and sheltered atmosphere. This area works well as a cosy lounge corner or reading nook, adding an element of architectural interest to the space. The modern open plan kitchen is from KVIK and features a sustainable bamboo worktop. The kitchen island serves as a real eye catcher and includes various built in appliances such as a steam oven, an induction hob with integrated extraction system, a wine climate cabinet, and a pleasant bar setting. This setup makes the kitchen both functional for cooking and social for entertaining. A second hallway at the rear of the living area provides access to a separate toilet and the main bathroom. The bathroom is finished with marble and equipped with a bath that also functions as a shower, a stylish washbasin unit, and a practical storage cupboard that houses the central heating installation. From this rear hallway, you have access to both the upper and lower floors of the apartment, demonstrating the unique three level layout of the property. The first upper floor contains a spacious bedroom featuring a characteristic beamed ceiling that adds to the historic atmosphere of the space. This bedroom includes a sleek built in wardrobe wall, providing ample storage without compromising the room's aesthetic. A charming adjoining terrace of approximately 9 square meters offers a quiet and sun drenched spot to relax outdoors. This private outdoor space is a valuable addition, especially in the central location where private outdoor areas are relatively rare. The second bedroom is located in the souterrain level and benefits from its own en suite bathroom. This bathroom includes a spacious walk in shower and an elegant washbasin unit. The finish with decorative tiles creates a warm and atmospheric appearance, making this lower level feel inviting rather than cellar like. The building includes a communal bicycle storage area in the basement with its own entrance directly from the Keizersgracht, which is practical for residents who cycle in the city. The apartment is part of a well organized and professionally managed Owners Association consisting of 8 members. An up to date multi year maintenance plan is in place, and the association maintains a healthy financial position. The monthly service costs amount to 574.77 euros. It is worth noting that the VvE is not registered with the Chamber of Commerce and does not have a reserve fund, though the presence of a maintenance plan indicates forward planning for building maintenance. Building insurance is arranged through the VvE. Regarding energy, the property has a gas fired combination boiler from 2010 for both heating and hot water. The property is exempt from the energy label requirement due to its monumental status. Ventilation is provided through both mechanical and natural systems. The location on the iconic Keizersgracht in the heart of Amsterdam's historic city centre is considered an absolute prime position. The area offers a balance between tranquillity at the rear of the building and the vibrancy of the canal side. Within walking distance, you will find a wide range of restaurants, cafes, boutiques, and specialty shops. The Jordaan neighbourhood, the Nine Streets shopping area, and various museums and cultural hotspots are all easily accessible on foot. Public transport connections are excellent with various tram and bus services in the immediate vicinity. Parking is available through the permit system or paid parking on the public road. According to the most recent information from the Municipality of Amsterdam for the Centrum 2e district, there is currently a waiting list for parking permits, which is typical for this central location. The asking price is 1,075,000 euros costs to be paid by the buyer, which translates to approximately 8,144 euros per square meter of living space. Delivery is in consultation and can be arranged relatively quickly. The property is offered through an NVM registered estate agent who acts as advisor to the seller. This apartment represents an opportunity to live in a historically significant building on one of Amsterdam's most prestigious canals, with the practical benefits of freehold land, a private terrace, and two full bathrooms. The three level layout provides separation between living and sleeping areas, while the courtyard position ensures a peaceful living environment despite the central location.
