Hotel Living - extremely stylish and warm ground floor apartment on Herengracht (including elevator) with exceptionally high-quality custom work, luxurious materials, and a delightful south-west facing sun terrace.


This apartment is located in the Blauwe Huis and is characterized by a refined, almost couture-like finish in which natural stone, craftsmanship, and custom interior design play the leading role. The renovation by the interior designer has recently been completed, and the atmosphere is warm and elegant. The hardwood floor continues into the living areas and is framed with a marble band of Rosso Verona. Everywhere, choices have been made that you rarely see in this level of detail and consistency. The windows have been replaced with Fineo glass.

The living room forms the heart of the home, with the fireplace and its Breche de Vendôme marble mantelpiece as a real eye-catcher. The elegant archway finished with Cipollino marble is the same marble that you see in the kitchen. The kitchen has been completely bespoke made by the interior designer: solid oak with bone handles, complete with high-quality appliances from Liebherr and Gaggenau.

The front of the house offers fantastic views of the canals, where you can also enjoy the morning sun.

What makes this apartment unique is the glass front from the atrium of the building. The property was once a bank, with a luxurious entrance hall with an atrium that you can look out on from the kitchen and the first bedroom. This gives a feeling of freedom and light, as the sun shines in all day through the immense skylight.


The bedrooms have also been custom-designed. The master bedroom features specially crafted furniture, including a bench, mirror cabinet, headboard, and desk, the tops of which are finished with a special yellow onyx stone. Here, too, a warm color palette has been chosen that still provides the freshness that a bedroom should have. The bathroom is decorated in the same matching warm colors, with handmade terracotta tiles from Cotto Etrusco. The faucets and shower are handmade in bronze by Studio Ore. The luxurious bathtub is made of quartzite.


In the second bedroom, curtains from Dedar and a custom headboard create the same calm, luxurious look. The second bedroom also has its own bathroom, also finished in terracotta tiles and with faucets and shower from Studio Ore.


In terms of comfort, the apartment is practical and complete: there is an elevator and a storage room with wine storage on the ground floor. In addition, there is a Harman & Kardon sound system throughout the apartment (a total of 10 speakers), bringing music and atmosphere together everywhere.

Surroundings

Located on Herengracht, on the western belt, the historic heart of Amsterdam, this apartment offers the best of both worlds. The energy of the city is palpable, but inside the apartment there is a pleasant tranquility.

The proximity of the Nine Streets and the view over the canals ensure that you will never be bored here. A boat moored in front of the door will add a new dimension to your experience of Amsterdam.
