neighborhood guide
At the end of the 19th century, as Amsterdam's city center became increasingly crowded, there was a growing need for a green neighborhood close to the center. In 1881, architect Zocher designed Willemspark, now better known as Vondelpark. A few decades later, the first villas were built around the ponds. Stately buildings in classical architectural styles welcomed families to this quieter and greener part of the city. The grandeur of that era is still intact. Both the residents and the high-quality offerings of Simon Meijssen bakery, Artichoc chocolatier, Wessels greengrocer, Jules bistro, Carter bar, and French seafood restaurant VISQUE give the residential neighborhood its contemporary allure. It is an ideal place to live in Amsterdam, where relaxation and inspiration are always close at hand.

Architecture
The building at Koninginneweg 47 was constructed in 1897 as a triad together with nos. 49 and 51, by architects J. Greiner and S. Luteijn. The architectural style can be characterized as eclecticism. To put it bluntly, eclecticism is 'a little bit of this and a little bit of that'. The architect borrows elements from different architectural styles. However, a well-thought-out eclectic design creates a coherent new whole by using the best of the various old styles. This style was popular in the second half of the 19th century, especially in the suburbs. Due to the large-scale construction production at that time, many ornaments could be mass-produced. Architects, or contractors acting as architects, ordered the desired ornaments from a catalog. Ornaments in the classicist style or in the 18th-century Louis styles were particularly popular: pediments, festoons, garlands, and half-columns. Examples of this are the former Nederlandsche Bank on Oude Turfmarkt, the Koning Willemshuis on Egelantiersstraat, and the whitewashed mansions on Plantage Parklaan.

The en-suite room still has the original stained glass sliding doors and divides the space well into a living area on the street side with a fireplace. At the rear is the dining room with a passageway to the semi-open kitchen, and on the garden side a beautifully detailed conservatory with stained glass and French doors to the south-facing garden. The living and dining area has oak plank flooring. The semi-open kitchen is connected to the dining room by an open passageway and has a door to the garden. The kitchen is L-shaped and equipped with various built-in appliances. It is possible to integrate the kitchen more into the living area by means of a larger wall opening. However, this requires a permit. The hall has a guest toilet and access to the basement.

French doors lead from this room to a covered south-facing balcony, where you can enjoy the sun during the day.
