Spacious 1930s Family Home in Popular Haarlemmerhoutkwartier

This spacious and bright 1930s family home is situated in the highly sought after and popular Haarlemmerhoutkwartier neighbourhood in Haarlem. The property is well maintained and offers a pleasant living environment for families looking for a characteristic home in a central location.

The ground floor features a front garden leading to the entrance. Upon entering, you reach a vestibule where the meter cupboard is located. The hallway provides access to a separate toilet room fitted with a small sink, as well as a storage cupboard under the stairs. The living room is a generous through lounge that benefits from plenty of natural light. It has an attractive bay window at the front and French doors at the rear opening onto the garden. The floor is finished with a quality parquet flooring. The open kitchen is arranged in an L shape and is equipped with various built in appliances. From the kitchen, there is also direct access to the rear garden.

The rear garden faces southeast and measures over ten metres in depth, allowing you to enjoy the sun throughout the day. The garden includes a freestanding stone storage shed and a back gate providing access to a rear path.

On the first floor, the landing gives access to all rooms and includes a fixed storage cupboard. There are three bedrooms on this level. The front bedroom has a plastic frame window with double glazing, a built in wardrobe, parquet flooring, and French doors opening onto a balcony facing east. The large master bedroom is located at the rear and also features plastic frames with double glazing and parquet flooring, with French doors leading to a west facing balcony. The third bedroom at the front has parquet flooring and a plastic frame double glazed window. The bathroom on this floor is neatly finished with a bath with shower attachment, a washbasin vanity unit, a toilet, and a granito floor.

The second floor features a spacious landing where the central heating boiler, a Nefit gas fired combi boiler, is installed along with connections for a washing machine and tumble dryer. There are two more bedrooms on this floor, both featuring good ridge height and dormer windows. One is situated at the front and the other at the rear of the property. The listing mentions that a fifth bedroom could be created relatively simply, though currently the property is presented with four bedrooms.

The property retains several characteristic details from the 1930s period, including a bay window, panel doors, and stained glass elements. The windows are largely fitted with double glazing and most frames have been replaced with plastic versions. The floors throughout the home are finished with an attractive parquet.

The Haarlemmerhoutkwartier, also referred to as the Houtvaartkwartier, is known as a child friendly and desirable residential area. The street itself is quiet while being centrally located. Several amenities are within easy reach. The NS station Heemstede Aerdenhout is approximately five minutes away by bicycle. The historic centre of Haarlem with its many cafes, restaurants, and shopping streets is also around five minutes by bike. Local shops, playgrounds, and the open air swimming pool De Houtvaart are located just around the corner.

Various primary schools and sports clubs are within walking distance. Within a few minutes walk, you can reach the beautiful Elswout country estate and the Haarlemmerhout city park. Cycling a bit further takes you through the dunes to the beaches of Zandvoort and Bloemendaal.

The main roads leading to Amsterdam, Schiphol Airport, Utrecht, The Hague, and Alkmaar are all in the immediate vicinity. Parking in the street and surrounding area is free of charge.

The property has potential for further expansion. There is the possibility to build an extension at the rear, and one or two additional dormer windows could be installed on the roof. The current energy label is C. The plot surface area of 135 square metres is an approximation as the property has not yet been formally surveyed cadastrally.

A non owner occupation clause applies to this property, meaning the buyer cannot rent out the home. The seller has designated Notariskantoor Hartman LMH in Amsterdam for the transfer. Delivery can take place by mutual agreement and can be arranged quickly if desired.

With a living area of 132 square metres spread over three floors, four bedrooms, a bathroom, and a sunny garden, this home offers substantial living space for a family. The combination of period character features and modern practical elements makes this a well balanced family residence in one of Haarlem most appreciated neighbourhoods.
