Singel 299 2

Unique living on the Singel, where history and contemporary luxury meet.

Situated on the quiet, picturesque part of the Singel, where elegant salon boats glide by and the city retains its charming character, lies this exceptionally stylish apartment of approximately 203 m² with a rooftop terrace and breathtaking canal views. A residence where elegance, comfort, and craftsmanship merge seamlessly.

The apartment was completely renovated under architecture in 2023 by renowned architect Winkelaar. Every detail has been carefully designed, preserving the monumental character while adding modern comfort. Features include herringbone oak floors, characteristic beam ceilings, a cozy fireplace, a bespoke design kitchen with Gaggenau appliances, underfloor heating in the living area, a home automation system, and air conditioning in multiple rooms. Every element exudes sophistication while maintaining a warm, homely atmosphere.

Technically, the property is fully future-proof: the foundation has been restored, the façades, roof, and main piping renewed, and the residence fitted with new window frames and heritage glass. Preparations for solar panels have already been made, a rare combination of historic charm and modern sustainability.

LAYOUT

First floor

The stately entrance on the ground floor leads to the apartment. A stylish hallway and staircase guide you to the first living level in the rear house, where there is space for coats and shoes. This floor includes a spacious bedroom with an adjoining luxurious bathroom featuring a walk-in shower, toilet, and wide washbasin unit.

Second floor (rear house)

A bright landing with separate toilet (with sanidouche) provides access to the second spacious bedroom. In the large storage closet are the connections for the washing machine and dryer, as well as a loft ladder leading to the attic storage space, housing the central heating and mechanical ventilation systems. If desired, this level can be adapted to include a third bathroom.

Third floor (front house)

Here lies the heart of the home. The generous living room with metal stucco fireplace and underfloor heating radiates atmosphere and luxury. Thanks to the light well between the front and rear sections, the space is bathed in natural daylight. Elegant built-in cabinets subtly separate the living and kitchen areas, maintaining the open sightlines while offering additional storage.

At the front, the open kitchen-dining area offers ample room for a large dining table. The custom-made design kitchen with Gaggenau appliances and premium finishes is a delight for any cooking enthusiast. The low window sills ensure a direct connection with the vibrant canal life below, an ever-changing view that enchants daily.

From the hallway, a staircase leads to the rooftop terrace of approximately 9.8 m², where you can enjoy sun and tranquility above the canals.

Fourth floor – The Master Experience

A beautiful staircase with a steel frame and wooden steps leads to the impressive master floor. High ceilings (approx. 2.70 m) with original beams create a sense of space and character. At the rear is a spacious walk-in closet, preserving a charming original window in excellent condition.

At the front lies the master bedroom, featuring a freestanding bathtub by the window, an idyllic spot to unwind while overlooking the canal. Between the wardrobe area and the bedroom is the luxurious bathroom with window, walk-in shower, and double washbasin.

A rare opportunity to live on one of Amsterdam’s most beautiful canals, in a monumental building reborn with contemporary sophistication.
