A separate entrance on Spiegelstraat leads to a classic marble hall that connects to all rooms.

In addition, this floor has a spacious laundry room, a technical room and a guest toilet.
This floor also has a fully lockable studio with its own kitchen and bathroom and a separate toilet: ideal for an au pair or guests.

The front door with the original stoop on Keizersgracht opens onto a spacious and impressive hall with classic mouldings, from which two spacious period rooms are accessible on both sides. The room on the right serves as a living room and has windows on both the front and side, including a fireplace (wood). The room on the left is furnished as a dining room, also with windows at the front and rear and a wood-burning fireplace.
