History

The building has a rich history and was built in 1824 as a chocolate and confectionery factory. Its robust structure and industrial past still form a subtle foundation for its current character. During the recent renovation, the building was completely refurbished with respect for its origins and adapted to today’s standards, utilizing high-quality materials and modern techniques. The result is a harmonious blend of history, contemporary living comfort, and a modern interior.

What the residents will miss

What makes this home special is the rare combination of tranquility, light, and space, right in the heart of the city. Despite its central location, it is remarkably serene here. The high ceilings and layout ensure that every room feels bright and pleasant, while the apartment’s size further enhances this sense of spaciousness. The historic character of the 1824 building, with the Venz factory in the background, combined with the high-quality renovation in 2023, gives the property its own unique identity.

The single-level layout, the elevator, and the unobstructed views of the canal, the greenery, and Alexanderplein round out the experience. The two balconies also contribute to the home’s comfort. Added to this is the convenience of always having parking right outside the door. The various rooms in the house are connected by a constant flow of natural light, which lends the entire space a pleasant atmosphere. The living room, with its view of the canal, is a natural place to spend time, while the kitchen, thanks to its layout and ease of use, also plays a central role in daily life.

The Plantage neighborhood is characterized by a unique balance of vibrancy, location, and tranquility. It is easily accessible by car, bicycle, and public transportation, yet the street itself is free from the hustle and bustle of trams, tourists, and shops. The historic surroundings—including the Muiderpoort, the Artis Aquarium, and the Wereld Museum nearby—lend the neighborhood a historic character.

What we will miss most is the peace and quiet and the spacious layout of the house, combined with the view and its ideal location in the city. The kitchen, which is a pleasure to use, and the good relationships with the neighbors and nearby restaurants—including Buurtcafe de Tros, Cafe Wu, and Entrepot—make this a place where we have truly enjoyed living.

Kriterion Movie Theater

Filmtheater Kriterion is one of the first projects of Stichting Kriterion and has been run entirely by students since 1945. You will find the film theater next to the Roetserseiland campus complex of the University of Amsterdam. Kriterion's weekly program consists of a wide range of films; you can visit Kriterion for arthouse films, documentaries, and international screenings. In the Kriterion café, you can enjoy a drink together before or after the film. We highly recommend the Sneak Preview, which Kriterion was the first to introduce in the Netherlands. Every Tuesday at 7:45 p.m., Kriterion surprises you with the latest films. A ticket for the Sneak Preview costs only 5 euros.

Hortus Botanicus

The Hortus Botanicus Amsterdam is one of the oldest botanical gardens in the world. The Oranjerie, the associated grand café, is also an centuries-old monument where you can relax – even in the middle of winter. They have an extensive lunch menu, and you eat while sitting in the middle of the beautiful tropical gardens. In the summer, the terrace is of course also open. It is one of Amsterdam's best kept secrets, definitely worth going to and experiencing the tranquility of the greenery yourself.

Frank's Smokehouse

Frank's smokehouse has been located in Amsterdam for more than twenty years, still in the same place where the first real store was opened on the Wittenburgergracht. As early as 1984, Frank learned to smoke trout in Sweden and was thus captivated by the simple primal form of preservation. When he continued this in his Rear garden in Amsterdam, friends first became his customers and grew into an established smokehouse. If you walk past it, you can already smell the scent of artisanal smoked fish and meat outside.

The Kaaf

The men behind restaurant De Tros and its sister restaurant Turbo opened their own wine shop in East Amsterdam, called Wijnwinkel de Tros, also known as De Kaaf. Here, they bring the same love for natural wine that characterizes their restaurants to a place where you can just walk in and take something beautiful home with you. The shelves are filled with carefully selected bottles, from pet nat to champagne and from red to white and orange. For those who know De Tros, De Kaaf feels like a logical extension: the same taste, but in store form. In addition, the space can also be rented for tastings and private evenings, making De Kaaf as much a meeting place as a store.
