Leidsegracht 47

Unique historic canal house with a floor area of 252 m² on private land. The five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and its location on the idyllic Leidsegracht canal offer the ultimate Amsterdam living experience. The picturesque property stands on its own land, has both an entrance on the Leidsegracht and an entrance on the Kerkstraat, and is, of course, designated as a national monument. A unique combination of history, space, and comfort on the historic canal belt.

The building
The total surface area is 252 m2 spread over six floors that were once used as two residences. The second entrance on Kerkstraat makes it easy to restore this use and makes the building suitable for various purposes. The characteristic cornice, typical of the architectural style of the prosperous 18th century, ends in a horizontal cornice that gives the building its allure. This house is located in the heart of Amsterdam's canal belt, designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Here you will experience the perfect balance between tranquility and excitement: atmospheric canals, green quays, and the liveliness of the Jordaan, the Nine Streets, and Leidseplein within walking distance. With numerous restaurants, cafes, cultural facilities, and boutiques around the corner, this is the ideal location for those who want to enjoy everything Amsterdam has to offer.

Layout
Due to the corner location of the building, all rooms have plenty of natural light. The style is classical in nature. During this period, rooms were connected to each other and the internal openness increased, resulting in a more modern living comfort than in older canal houses.


The entrance from both the Leidsegracht and the Kerkstraat takes us via a staircase to the bel étage of this characteristic building. At the time of construction, this was done to give the building a chic appearance. Here you will find the attractive living room, with many windows offering a beautiful view of the canal and providing this floor with pleasant natural light. Centrally located in this space is the staircase to the basement, which also creates an open separation in the space.

Basement
Here you will find the spacious kitchen with a cooking island and all the built-in appliances you could wish for.

First Floor
The first floor has a spacious landing with access to the first bedroom and bathroom with shower, toilet, and double sink. From the landing, there is access to the staircase to the upper floors, as well as the entrance on Kerkstraat.

Second Floor
The second floor used to belong to the former 'upper house'. That is why there is a 'private entrance' on Kerkstraat. On this floor, there is a spacious bedroom/study with a view over the Leidsegracht to the Keizersgracht. There is another bedroom on Kerkstraat. There is also a second bathroom with a sink, toilet, and bathtub.

Third Floor
The fourth bedroom is located on the third floor of the canal house. Here you will also find a living room with a compact kitchen and a bathroom with a sink, toilet, and bathtub. From here, a fixed staircase leads to the fourth floor, where there is a spacious storage room with central heating boiler and the fifth bedroom.
