Behind the monumental façade of this former chocolate factory lies a truly exceptional apartment: approximately 211 sq.m., entirely on one level and accessible by lift. Its impressive proportions, generous ceiling heights and high-end finishes create a distinctly cosmopolitan atmosphere, while uninterrupted views over the water, lush greenery and the iconic Muiderpoort provide a remarkable setting.
LAYOUT
The lift and communal staircase lead directly to the apartment's private entrance on the first floor. The centrally positioned hallway features bespoke built-in wardrobes, a separate guest toilet with washbasin, and a spacious storage room. From here, the living and sleeping quarters are naturally separated, creating a well-balanced and practical layout.
To the left, elegant glazed double doors open into the living room, where three magnificent arched windows immediately draw the eye. These original factory windows pay tribute to the building's industrial heritage and give the space its distinctive character. Combined with a width of over nine metres and ceilings of approximately three metres high, they create an extraordinary sense of space while flooding the interior with natural light. The unobstructed views over the Plantage Muidergracht, surrounding greenery and the historic Muiderpoort make this apartment truly one of a kind.
A gas fireplace with a travertine surround is seamlessly integrated into a bespoke low cabinet, finished in the same material as the custom cabinetry found throughout the apartment. This thoughtful design creates a calm and harmonious interior.
The living area flows effortlessly into the dining space and open-plan kitchen. The kitchen can be accessed both directly from the hallway through a glass door and from the living room itself. Designed and custom made, it is finished in luxurious Calacatta marble and equipped with premium Gaggenau appliances. At its heart is a generous kitchen island with a breakfast bar, creating an inviting place for family and guests to gather. There is ample room for a large dining table, making this the perfect setting for long dinners and entertaining.
A particularly striking feature is the centrally positioned atrium, which draws natural light deep into the apartment while creating a strong connection with the outdoors. The timber detailing surrounding the atrium provides a warm contrast to the refined interior materials and gives the home a distinctive architectural identity.
At the rear of the apartment are two spacious bedrooms, both with direct access to the balcony and fitted with air conditioning.
The principal bedroom features bespoke built-in wardrobes and an impressive en-suite bathroom that is undoubtedly one of the home's highlights. Luxurious Calacatta marble, a generous custom-made vanity unit, a freestanding bathtub, a spacious walk-in shower, a toilet and elegant steel pivot doors combine to create the ambience of a five-star hotel suite.
Adjacent to the principal bedroom is the second generously proportioned bedroom, accompanied by a second luxurious bathroom. This bathroom is also finished in Calacatta marble and features a bespoke double vanity unit and a spacious walk-in shower.
Opposite the bathroom are a separate guest toilet and a dedicated laundry room, completing the apartment's practical and highly functional layout.
At the heart of the apartment is a third bedroom overlooking the atrium. This versatile room is equally suitable as a home office, gym or guest bedroom. The adjoining balcony offers a secluded outdoor retreat in the centre of the home.
The entire apartment is laid out on one level and finished with oak flooring and integrated bespoke cabinetry throughout. Offering more than 211 sq.m. of living space, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and two balconies, this is an exceptionally comfortable residence where space, luxury and intelligent design come together effortlessly.
