Bright Corner Apartment with Garden in Haarlem's Kleverpark

This spacious and bright corner upper apartment is located in the highly sought after Kleverpark neighborhood in Haarlem. The property offers 95 square meters of living space, three bedrooms, a luxury kitchen, two balconies, and notably for an upper apartment, a private backyard with a storage shed and rear access.

The apartment occupies the first floor of a building dating from 1929, situated within a protected cityscape. The corner position provides windows on three sides of the property, and a skylight in the hallway further enhances the natural light throughout the home. The high ceilings add to the sense of space and volume, with the total volume measuring 324 cubic meters.

The Kempstraat is described as a wide and quiet street where neighbors still know each other, creating a village like atmosphere within the city. The Kleverparkbuurt is consistently ranked among the most desirable neighborhoods in Haarlem, characterized by stately 1930s architecture, tree lined streets, and a friendly community spirit.

Daily amenities are conveniently close by. The Santpoorterplein is just around the corner for grocery shopping. The Kleverparkweg offers Cleeff for coffee and lunch, an artisanal bakery, a wine shop, a bookstore, and other local businesses. For dining out, Deplanu is nearby with a large terrace that enjoys sunshine throughout the day. Families with young children will appreciate that both primary schools Ter Cleeff and De Ark are located around the corner.

Transport links are excellent. The train station can be reached by bicycle in approximately five minutes, and the Grote Markt in the city center is about seven minutes by bike. The beach and dunes are also easily accessible. A particularly notable feature is the free parking available directly in front of the property, which is described as a rare luxury in Haarlem.

The property has its own entrance at ground level with a wide staircase leading up to the first floor. Upon reaching the first floor, the hallway with skylight provides access to all rooms. The living room is notably broad and bright, featuring three large windows at the front with no direct neighbors opposite. The space accommodates both a comfortable seating area and a full dining area. Double doors at the rear open onto a sunny east facing balcony, ideal for morning coffee outdoors.

The kitchen is a large corner installation with a composite worktop and Siemens premium built in appliances. It includes ample built in cabinets and numerous drawers. A bar along the kitchen provides a casual seating area where guests can gather while cooking is in progress.

The bathroom is generously proportioned and equipped with a shower and a double vanity unit. From the bathroom, there is access to a dedicated laundry room, which is a full separate space with connections for a washing machine and dryer, as well as housing the CV boiler. Additionally, there is a separate toilet room.

The three bedrooms are well sized and located on the side and rear of the property. Two of the rear bedrooms have access to the large second east facing balcony, with one of these having double doors. Throughout the apartment, high quality PVC flooring has been installed, with herringbone pattern in the living room and hallway, and straight planks in the bedrooms.

The outdoor spaces are particularly noteworthy for an upper apartment. There are two east facing balconies, both accessible via double doors. More unusually, the property includes a backyard measuring 43 square meters, with a depth of 7.16 meters and a width of 6.00 meters. The garden has a rear access path and contains a freestanding wooden storage shed with electricity.

The property has a B energy label. Insulation includes double glazing on all windows, insulated cavity walls, and a roof that was renewed and insulated in 2023. Heating and hot water are provided by a Nefit gas fired combination boiler from 2011, which is owned rather than rented. The property has mechanical ventilation.

The exterior of the building has scheduled maintenance, with all exterior painting planned for renewal in spring 2026, covering the front and rear facades, front door, window frames, and roof trim. A structural inspection report is available for review.

The property is part of an active Homeowners Association that is registered with the Chamber of Commerce. Monthly service costs are 100 euros. The VvE has a reserve fund in place and building insurance is arranged. There is no formal maintenance plan currently in place, and annual general meetings are not held according to the listing details.

For those considering future expansion, there is a possibility to add a roof extension, though this would require obtaining the necessary permits. The property is offered at 649,000 euros costs to buyer, which translates to approximately 6,832 euros per square meter of living space.

The apartment is described as fully move in ready, with modern materials and a warm atmosphere throughout. The combination of the corner position, multiple outdoor spaces, and the desirable Kleverpark location makes this a property with considerable appeal for buyers seeking a spacious and light filled home in one of Haarlem's most popular neighborhoods.
