For rent: Flat Prinseneiland in Amsterdam

Description

General

Living in a completely modern renovated, historic and characteristic warehouse from the 18th century on the atmospheric and quiet Prinseneiland? Then this apartment is definitely something for you!

The warehouse Prinseneiland 5, named ‘The Young Whaler’, was built between 1716 and 1721 by Abraham Kromhuijsen. The shell (facades and side walls, beams, floors, stairwell and roof structure) largely dates back to this construction phase. The monumental warehouse has a rich history with many functions, from storage of coffee and cocoa to picture framing and housing for a residential group.

Recently, the national monument has been restored in a high-quality and sustainable way into twelve beautiful luxury apartments. An elevator has been installed, energy-efficient installations have been applied, all facades, ceilings and floors are (soundproof) insulated and where possible HR++ insulated glass has been used. By preserving the original 18th-century stairs, floor beams, and warehouse doors, the characteristic appearance has been retained.

Location

The warehouse is located on one of the three Western Islands in the center of Amsterdam. These islands form a small charming world of their own. Nowadays, due to its secluded location, it is one of the most sought-after, quietest and most atmospheric neighborhoods in Amsterdam. You can do your daily shopping on foot at the cozy Haarlemmerdijk, Haarlemmerstraat, and in the Jordaan behind them, where there are also countless eateries, restaurants, and shops.

Prinseneiland is located 10 minutes from Central Station and the nearest bus stop at Haarlemmerplein is only a 400-meter walk.

It is a nice place to live quietly, but due to its central location, it is also a wonderful base for a dynamic life.

Layout

Via a high-quality furnished and painted stairwell with a modern elevator, you reach the entrance of the apartment on the 3rd floor.

In the entrance hall you will find the bathroom and the bedroom. The bedroom is spaciously arranged and equipped with a large built-in wardrobe.

The bathroom is also spacious and equipped with a walk-in shower, a wall-hung toilet, a large sink with storage options, good ventilation, and connections for a washing machine and a dryer.

Then you reach the spacious living room spanning the entire width of the building, featuring a generous eat-in kitchen, French doors with beautiful unobstructed views over the water, and a second room.

Despite the authentic feeling the building gives you, the kitchen is characterized by its modern character. The stylish color combinations are a delight to the eye. The modern kitchen has a natural stone countertop and is equipped with all desired built-in appliances, such as an oven-microwave combination, fridge-freezer combination, dishwasher, induction hob, and extractor hood. All from the brand Siemens.

The home is further fully equipped with beautiful panel doors with stainless steel door and window handles, a high-quality floor finish with high baseboards, energy-efficient LED recessed lighting, and fine switch materials, as well as an HR central heating system, security locks, and an intercom with speaker-listening device at the entrance door on the ground floor and in the home. Additionally, the living room and bedrooms have curtains.

Everything in the home radiates comfort and luxury. A great combination of monumental and modern living enjoyment where the apartment has been sustainably renovated (energy label A++, which results in lower energy costs). The shell and common areas are sustainably maintained, including cleaning of the stairwell, maintenance of installations, and window cleaning.
