VERY CHARMING AND CHARACTERISTIC DOUBLE UPPER HOUSE OF 69.50M² WITH AN ADJACENT STUDIO IN THE BASEMENT OF 44.20M². THE TOTAL SURFACE AREA IS 114M² (GFA 164M²). THIS MONUMENTAL PROPERTY WAS FULLY RESTORED AND RENOVATED INTERNALLY IN 2021 AND IS LOCATED IN THE HEART OF THE CITY.
This unique property is located on the corner of the Vijzelgracht and the third Weteringdwarsstraat and has windows on both sides. This national monument was built in the 17th century and sits on leasehold land. During the renovation in 2021, high-quality materials in a light color scheme were used. The atmospheric upper house is located on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd floors of the building. The modern, fully equipped studio is situated in the basement. This living space could serve perfectly as an office/practice at home, guest house, au-pair room, or for an adult child living at home. The combination of beautiful windows, modern execution, perfect layout, and pleasant location make this a very good property in a prime location.
Due to its ideal location, you are directly in the vibrant shopping area but can also be out of the city in no time.
