Historic 90m2 Apartment with Private Canal Balcony on Prinsengracht

Apartment & Space

The private balcony overlooks the Prinsengracht canal and provides outdoor seating to watch passing boats. The fully equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher, microwave, and a washing machine for self-catering stays.

Historic Character & Privacy

Located in a 17th-century canal house on a main Amsterdam canal, the apartment retains narrow, steep staircases typical of the era. A private entrance ensures guests come and go without passing through a shared lobby. The building is situated in a residential area known for its local ambiance, away from tourist crowds.

Location & Nearby Attractions

The apartment sits on the Prinsengracht, less than 1 km from the Anne Frank House and Rijksmuseum. Rembrandtplein Square is a 13-minute walk away, and the Van Gogh Museum and Moco Museum are within walking distance. Schiphol Airport is 14 km from the property, with tram lines running directly in front of the building.

Guest Services & Comfort

The host, Eric, provides a welcome basket with treats upon arrival and offers local recommendations. Bathroom toiletries and a bathtub are included for guest use. The apartment has air conditioning and free WiFi throughout.

Surroundings & Activities

Boating is available directly on the Prinsengracht canal, accessible from the apartment. A local pub and a Thai restaurant are a few minutes' walk from the building. The property is within a 10-minute walk of the Jordaan district and its market streets.

“I see a genuine Amsterdam experience here, housed within a historic building right on the canals. The apartment provides ample space and a fully equipped kitchen, setting it apart from standard hotel rooms; its balcony is the perfect spot to unwind. Its central location makes cultural sites easily accessible, though note those traditional steep stairs might pose a challenge.”
