Description
Lauriergracht 118D, A Design Apartment Unlike Any Other
This is not just an apartment. It is a carefully considered work of art, featured in the celebrated coffee table book The Art of Living in Amsterdam as one of the city's most inspiring interiors.
Tucked into the crown of a 17th-century monumental warehouse on the Laurier
In the heart of the Jordaan, in a prime location, we offer this apartment located in the monumental former warehouse “De Hoop,” dating from 1650. The property has two levels and includes a storage room on the ground floor.
LAYOUT
The apartment is situated on the third floor of a historic warehouse with a rich history. You enter the home via the communal staircase.
Upon entering, you step into the bright living room with a semi-open kitchen at the rear. At the front is the atmospheric seating area with a beautiful gas fireplace, ideal for colder days. French doors provide access to a charming French balcony with a unique view over the Lauriergracht.
The kitchen is fully equipped with various built-in appliances, including an oven, dishwasher, a 6-burner gas stove, and a professional-style faucet. On this floor you will also find a separate toilet and a storage space under the stairs.
An internal staircase leads to the bedroom, located in the roof ridge of the building. The freestanding bathtub forms a striking and stylish centerpiece here. The bathroom is equipped with a shower and a natural stone washbasin. At the rear, there is also a spacious walk-in closet offering ample storage space.
From the bedroom, a roof window provides access to the roof terrace.
On the ground floor, the property has its own storage room and there is a shared bicycle storage area.
The entire apartment is finished with a wooden floor and is heated via a central heating system.
AREA
Lauriergracht sits in the heart of the Jordaan, one of Amsterdam's most sought-after neighbourhoods. Within walking distance: the Nine Streets, the weekly markets on Lindengracht and Noordermarkt, and an endless mix of restaurants, galleries and independent shops. Vondelpark and Leidseplein are five minutes by bike. Amsterdam Centraal is a fifteen-minute tram ride via Rozengracht or Marnixstraat. The neighbourhood has it all, yet the canal itself is remarkably quiet.

STREETNAME
The Lauriergracht derives its name from the laurel plant, which in the 17th century symbolized victory, fame, and prosperity. The canal was created during the major expansion of Amsterdam and is part of the Jordaan, where many streets and canals are named after flowers and plants. This historical naming tradition still contributes to the character and identity of the neighborhood.
