Description
HET TORENHUYS - Het Torenhuys is an industrial, detached property, remodeled late 2015 to create a truly unique approx. 212 home. The home is extremely spacious and bright, spans 2 levels and is situated in popular and sought-after Helmers Quarter.
Layout
The ground-floor level serves three purposes, and is comprised of a generous kitchen/lounge, a welcoming living room and a study.
Several elements immediately command attention, such as the stunning ceiling heights, the direct line of sight from the hall through the kitchen to the living room and the robust steel door. Your senses have been awakened, your curiosity piqued. And will be satisfied as soon as you walk into the living room. A breathtaking space. A unique, seemingly cubic room of no less than 7.83 meters wide and nearly 4 meters tall. The concrete pillars in every corner are reminders of the building's original function and become exquisite features combined with the sleek, contemporary materials. The stunning M Design fireplace is centrally positioned in the living room. Despite the sheer dimensions of the space, the sellers have achieved an intimate, comfortable atmosphere.
The living room features double French doors to the driveway and the beautifully landscaped, secluded garden.
The custom-made kitchen with Barnwood cabinets and a concrete countertop align perfectly with the personality of the home. Siemens fitted appliances and the iconic AGA stove complement the kitchen perfectly. An antique panel door opens to the pantry.
At the front of the house is a multi-functional study, the coat area and a guest restroom.
First floor
The custom-made steel staircase, a modern industrial design, leads to the first floor. This level consists of three individual sections: the original crane tower, the perpendicular saddled roof with red roof tiles and the 'new' section above the living room.
The glass connections between the three sections has lent the landing unique character. During the day, it allows for an abundance of daylight entry. At the end of the landing, stairs lead to the spacious roof deck.
Under the saddled roof are the first two spacious bedrooms. These rooms have partially exposed roof beams and boast amazing, nearly 4 meter tall ceilings. The size of the rooms is emphasized by large Velux windows positioned one over the other, on the southeast-facing side of the roof. Both rooms measure ca. 9 sqm.
The third section, above the living room, accommodates the master bedroom with an en suite bathroom and a dressing room, the second bathroom, guest restroom and the fourth bedroom.
The en suite bathroom is fitted with flush cast flooring and Concrete Ciré on the walls. The bathroom has a Duravit by Starck bathtub, walk-in shower, toilet/bidet and a double vanity with Axor Starck Organic designer taps. The second bathroom also has flush cast flooring and is equipped with a walk-in shower and a double vanity.
