It’s hard to believe for those who are not familiar with the amazing tenacity and imagination of Dutch engineering, but the city of Amsterdam was partly built on artificial islands over the course of the Golden Age. These apartments stand on one of them, the Zoutkeetsgracht (literally, ‘salt depot canal’), named after the many salt warehouses in use during the 18th century. Your place in Amsterdam could be in this impressive building. Where once it was used to store and process salt, today it is a peaceful haven for urban explorers, those looking for a stylish apartment with modern comforts amid the historic charm of the Jordaan district. Whitewashed brick walls, beamed ceilings and historic details are reminders of the building’s heritage. This area is a favourite with local artists and real Amsterdammers, who want to live in a tranquil area tucked away between Central Station and the main Jordaan district. Exposed beams, whitewashed brick walls and all the charm of a historic Amsterdam building meet the comfort of your apartment a stone's throw from the Jordaan district. You’ve found the perfect space for a family or group looking for a typical Amsterdam experience, with a touch of modern design. A see-through floor insertion blends perfectly with whitewashed brick walls and beamed ceilings. The two-level space features a sleeping area separated from a generous living room and a kitchen. It sleeps up to four adults and 2 children (12 or younger). Please be aware that HousingAnywhere is an online booking platform.
