Neighbourhood
De Pijp was laid out at the end of the nineteenth century to provide housing for newcomers who moved to the capital for work. In 1886, Freddy Heineken’s father opened the Heineken brewery here. The first workers’ homes, around Albert Cuypstraat, were built quickly and inexpensively. Later, moving towards the Diamantbuurt, architect Berlage added homes in the Amsterdam School style. It is said that the neighbourhood owes its name to the long, straight streets, shaped like a pipe. The Albert Cuyp Market and Sarphatipark define the vibrancy of De Pijp. Artists and writers such as Piet Mondriaan, Carel Willink, and Gerard Reve lived and worked here. Its lively, mixed community gave rise to many cafés and eateries. Today, the area is known as the Quartier Latin of Amsterdam, still characterised by its dynamism and a wide range of restaurants such as Brut de Mer, Yamazato, Arles, the Peruvian NAZKA, and authentic bistros such as Petit Caron.

Huis van Henrick
Sometimes a residence simply feels right. The proportions, the layout, the position within the street everything falls into place.
The House of Henrick is situated in the heart of De Pijp, on the first floor of a building that has been part of the city for more than a century. The architecture is both recognizable and considered, with a façade that blends into the larger whole and interiors that invite a personal way of living.
Life here unfolds in the calm of the urban setting. Windows at the front open onto the lively street scene, while a quiet bedroom at the rear offers retreat. The floorplan is clear, the atmosphere bright and open. An elegant, well-balanced residence for those who value simplicity paired with quality.
The façade reveals a clean and symmetrical composition, characteristic of the Amsterdam School architecture that frequently appears in De Pijp. The design by Arend Jan Westerman, dating from the 1920s, together with the mirrored block across the street, forms a distinct urban ensemble. The combination of a low yellow base and dark brickwork establishes the rhythm of the street and enhances the recognizability of the block.
The residence on the first floor aligns with this architectural structure, yet its interior is arranged according to a contemporary and functional layout. The spaces are logically organized, with careful attention to natural light and ease of use. At the front, two large windows connect with the streetscape and draw northern light into the residence.
The living area at the front is thoughtfully arranged. Two large windows allow daylight to flow deep into the space, enhancing the sense of openness. The layout is clear, with a sitting area and dining table in direct connection to the kitchen.
The kitchen is positioned in a corner layout at the front of the residence, overlooking the street. The cabinetry is neutral in appearance, with a bright and functional arrangement that offers ample storage in both upper and lower units. The kitchen is equipped with a range of built-in appliances, including a gas cooktop with extractor hood, an oven, a fridge-freezer combination, and a dishwasher.
The bedroom is situated at the rear of the residence, overlooking the inner gardens. The space is quiet and well-proportioned, with room for a double bed, a home office setup, and a large wardrobe. French doors open onto the balcony, allowing light and air to flow deep into the room. The finishes are neutral, with the light flooring continued from the living area.
The alternative floorplan makes it clear: the residence offers the possibility to create a second bedroom by dividing the generous existing one.
The bathroom is centrally positioned within the residence and arranged with efficiency. It features a walk-in shower with glass partition, a washbasin unit with storage, a mirrored cabinet, and a wall-mounted toilet. The layout is practical and straightforward.
At the rear of the residence lies the balcony, accessible from the bedroom. Its south-west orientation ensures afternoon and evening sun. The view over the inner gardens brings a sense of calm and openness, right in the middle of the city. The balcony is compact yet practical, offering a place to sit outside with space for a table and two chairs. A lockable storage cupboard provides room for garden items or additional storage.
De Pijp was developed at the end of the nineteenth century to provide housing for newcomers who came to the capital in search of work. In 1886, the father of Freddy Heineken opened the Heineken Brewery here. The first workers’ houses, built around the Albert Cuypstraat, were constructed quickly and affordably. Later, towards the Diamantbuurt, dwellings in the Amsterdam School style designed by Berlage were added. It is said that the neighborhood owes its name to the long, straight streets that resemble the shape of a pipe.
The Albert Cuyp Market and Sarphatipark define much of the dynamism of De Pijp. Artists and writers such as Piet Mondriaan, Carel Willink, and Gerard Reve once lived and worked here. The lively, mixed population brought many cafés and eateries to the area. Today, the neighborhood is known as the Quartier Latin of Amsterdam, still vibrant with a wide variety of restaurants such as Brut de Mer, Yamazato, Arles, the Peruvian NAZKA, and authentic bistros such as Petit Caron.
