Exclusive 3-Bedroom Prinsengracht Canal House with Private Garden and Lift

Overlooking Amsterdam’s celebrated Prinsengracht at number 611, this exceptional three-bedroom canal house offers approximately 210 m² of refined accommodation for up to eight guests. Five characterful levels, a private lift and a secluded 33 m² city garden create a rare combination of historic atmosphere, modern comfort and generous space in the heart of the canal district.

Comprehensively renovated in 2022, the residence preserves exposed timber beams and the distinctive proportions of a traditional Dutch canal house while introducing elegant contemporary interiors, premium materials and carefully integrated technology. Views toward the canal and Westertoren provide an unmistakably Amsterdam setting.

Ground-floor dining, designer kitchen and garden
The entrance level opens through a welcoming hall with lift access and a separate guest restroom. At the front of the house, the formal dining room faces Prinsengracht through tall French doors, bringing canal light and historic streetscape views into an intimate setting for meals and gatherings.

Toward the rear, the designer kitchen centres on a substantial island with breakfast seating. Dark cabinetry, stone work surfaces, integrated appliances and a dedicated wine climate cabinet support both everyday cooking and private entertaining.

French doors lead directly from the kitchen to the approximately 33 m² private city garden. Arranged with outdoor lounge seating and planting, this peaceful courtyard offers a valuable place for afternoon sunshine, open-air dining or quiet time away from the surrounding city streets.

First-floor reception rooms with canal views
The first floor is devoted to elegant shared living. A spacious front reception room features herringbone flooring, exposed beams, contemporary art and French doors overlooking Prinsengracht. Generous seating makes the room equally suitable for relaxed evenings and entertaining.

A second sitting area at the rear provides flexibility as a reading lounge, television room or home office. Glazed partitions and the open staircase allow light to travel through the floor while preserving the architectural rhythm of the original building. A separate guest restroom adds convenience.

Private principal-suite level
The second floor forms a complete principal suite, reached by both staircase and lift. The generously proportioned bedroom includes fitted storage and a substantial walk-in wardrobe, creating a calm private retreat above the reception spaces.

Its en-suite bathroom pairs a sculptural freestanding bathtub with a large glass walk-in shower, illuminated double vanity and refined stone finishes. A separate restroom completes this highly private level.

Two additional bedrooms and private bathrooms
The third floor contains two further bedrooms, each with access to its own bathroom. Pitched rooflines, exposed structural timbers and skylight illumination give these rooms individual character while maintaining the home’s contemporary standard.

This arrangement provides privacy for families, friends or professional colleagues sharing an extended stay. A dedicated laundry room with stacked appliances is positioned on the same floor for practical everyday use.

The upper attic, reached by a loft ladder, provides additional storage for luggage and personal belongings. Throughout the house, the private lift improves access between the principal residential levels without diminishing the property’s historic identity.

Prinsengracht and Amsterdam’s canal district
Prinsengracht is one of the defining waterways of Amsterdam’s UNESCO-listed canal ring. Elegant historic façades, arched bridges and waterside streets surround the residence, while the nearby Westertoren creates a familiar landmark within the neighbourhood skyline.

The neighbourhood supports everyday living with supermarkets, specialist food stores and local services, while walking, cycling, tram and bus connections make it easy to reach the wider city. Any private parking arrangement is subject to separate confirmation and availability.
