Description

Leidsegracht 78A – A rare indoor-outdoor haven on one of Amsterdam’s most exclusive canals

In the heart of Amsterdam’s historic canal belt, this exclusive home offers something truly exceptional: a fully renovated, double ground-floor residence of almost 160 m², set entirely on freehold land, with a remarkably rare connection to the outdoors.

What sets this home apart is its triple French doors opening directly from the main living area onto an expansive 24 m² private terrace, which in turn flows seamlessly into a beautifully landscaped 44 m² garden. This fluid connection between indoor and outdoor space is almost never found in central Amsterdam and offers a unique sense of space, calm, and possibility.

A thoughtful renovation with character and comfort

This property has been comprehensively and carefully restored. The works include:
• A completely rebuilt foundation
• A newly retiled roof
• Full exterior restoration, rendered and painted in 2024–2025

Inside, authentic 16th-century oak beams and exposed brickwork preserve the home’s historical soul, while:

• Oak herringbone flooring
• Custom oak design staircase
• New epoxy-coated lower-level floors
• Monument-grade glass in the front façade

Elegant living with garden views

Main Level: Light, Flow, and Connection

From the private entrance, the home opens into a serene, sophisticated main floor:

• A canal-facing dining room with charming water views
• A sleek open kitchen with Bosch built-in appliances, cooking island, combi oven, induction hob, integrated fridge, and Quooker-style tap
• A dramatic glass panel in the floor offering a view to the level below
• And most notably: triple French doors that flood the space with light and open directly onto the sun-soaked terrace and private garden beyond

This unique open-air connection offers a lifestyle rarely seen in the city — perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying quiet moments surrounded by greenery.

Lower Level: Tranquil and Flexible

With underfloor heating throughout, the garden-level space is calm, quiet, and adaptable:

• A master bedroom with garden access and en-suite bathroom, including walk-in rain shower and fittings for a freestanding bath
• Three additional rooms — ideal as guest rooms, offices, or gym
• A second bathroom, walk-in closet, media lounge, and separate laundry room

Location, Heritage, and Connectivity

Situated on a highly prized stretch of the UNESCO-listed Leidsegracht, this home offers both peace and prestige. Just steps away are iconic Amsterdam cafés like De Pieper and George, along with boutique shops, galleries, the 9 Streets, and Vondelpark.

• Vijzelgracht metro station (North–South line) within walking distance
