Living in ’Den Grooten Heer’

In addition, a concierge is present daily, and great attention is paid to safety and privacy.

The combination of monumental architecture, comfortable amenities, and the location in the heart of Amsterdam’s canal ring makes Den Grooten Heer a special place to live.

Second floor
The entrance of the apartment leads to a spacious hall with enough room for a coat closet and a separate toilet.

Through double doors, you enter the generous living room, where the exceptional ceiling height of approximately 3.48 meters, the large window sections, and the view over the Herengracht immediately stand out. The room offers ample space for both a comfortable seating area and a separate dining area. The wooden herringbone floor, ceiling ornaments, and classic mantelpiece enhance the character of the home.
