Sold subject to conditions: Marnixstraat 315D, 1016 TB Amsterdam

For sale in Amsterdam City Center:

Boutique loft living on the edge of the Jordaan neighborhood. Architecture, character, sustainability (energy label B), and comfort in a historic bank building, the former “Bank van Lening.”

The building, a municipal landmark, was built in 1886 in the Neo-Renaissance style and stands on the corner of Marnixstraat and Lijnbaansgracht, just south of Bloemgracht. In 1997, the building was completely modernized—including new foundations, an elevator, and storage units in the basement—and 17 apartments were created.

Behind the historic facade of this former bank building lies a home that immediately captivates with its tranquility, light, and sophistication. This stylish split-level loft combines characterful architecture with a contemporary interior, a sunken designer kitchen, and an elegant bedroom on the mezzanine, separated by steel and glass walls. A move-in-ready home with an international flair, right in the heart of the city yet surprisingly serene.

The home has a total living area of approximately 65 m². Of this, 56 m² qualifies as usable living space in accordance with NEN2580. The difference in square footage relates to the floor area beneath the sloped section of the bedroom, which naturally contributes to the home’s practical usability and sense of space.

SURROUNDINGS:
Marnixstraat connects the historic Jordaan neighborhood with the lively Oud-West. It’s a location where the city’s energy and the charm of Amsterdam’s canals come together.

In the immediate vicinity, you’ll find a diverse selection of excellent restaurants, wine bars, coffee shops, specialty stores, and delicatessens. The Jordaan, the Negen Straatjes, the Rozengracht, and Hugo de Grootplein are all within a short walking distance, as are various cultural attractions, museums, and theaters. This is also an ideal location for relaxation. A stroll along the canals, a visit to Westerpark, or an evening out on the town are all part of daily life here.

Accessibility is excellent. Various tram and bus lines stop practically right outside the door, and Amsterdam Central Station is about a ten-minute bike ride away. The A10 ring road is also easily accessible.

Here, you live right in the heart of the city, with all its vibrancy within easy reach, while enjoying peace, comfort, and character at home.

LAYOUT:
Through the impressive central entrance, where the grandeur of the former bank building is still palpable, you take the elevator to the third floor. A stylish welcome that immediately sets the tone for the rest of the home.

Once inside, the calm and well-thought-out layout stands out. All rooms are accessible from the entry hall.

At the rear is a comfortably sized room that is currently set up as a home office. Thanks to its quiet location and direct access to the balcony, this is an inspiring place to work from home. Of course, this space is also ideal as a guest room, second bedroom, or hobby room.

The bathroom was completely renovated in 2021 and features timeless, high-quality finishes. The spacious walk-in shower, double sink vanity, and wall-mounted toilet ensure a high level of living comfort.

Next, the living area opens up. The split-level layout and exposed, characteristic roof structure give the living room a unique character. The raised oak floor offers a beautiful view of the tall windows and the characteristic facades of Marnixstraat. Moreover, there is a surprising amount of hidden storage space beneath the entire floor—a practical luxury rarely found in Amsterdam’s city center.

The living room feels warm, light, and inviting. The custom-built wall cabinet with integrated lighting serves as a stylish interior accent, while the spacious dining area and comfortable sitting area invite you to relax or entertain guests.

At the center of the home, you’ll find the sunken kitchen, so to speak. It’s not just a functional workspace, but the natural heart of the home where cooking and socializing come together effortlessly. The high-quality built-in appliances and thoughtful design make this kitchen as practical as it is stylish.

A few steps up is the master bedroom. In 2024, the loft space was fitted with elegant steel and glass walls, creating a fully-fledged bedroom without losing the open character of the loft. Daylight floods through the home, enhancing the sense of space, while the steel facades further accentuate the loft’s architecture. Adjacent to the bedroom is a practical closet for the washer and dryer.

The combination of high ceilings, historic elements, natural light, and carefully selected materials gives this home a warm, refined ambiance where comfort and architecture come together.
