Spaarndamseweg 42021 CA HaarlemPatrimoniumbuurt

Lovely bright family home (from 1934) on the Spaarne! With spacious bedrooms, a large attic and a sunny back garden with detached shed and back entrance. At 10 minutes' walking distance from the station, the city beach, supermarkets and several primary schools. Within a few minutes' cycling you are in the middle of Haarlem's bustling city centre. Unique to this part of the Spaarndamseweg is the combination of peace and bustle. The tranquillity of the Spaarne, with the glare of the sun and the ripples on the water. But also the hustle and bustle it brings, from sloops to suppers and from an inland barge to canal boats. Cars don't drive fast here and quiet asphalt has recently been applied. The conversion of this fine bay window house has retained many original details and restored them where necessary. For example, the hall has the granito floor and wall tiles from the construction period. There is also a lot of beautiful stained glass and the kitchen retains its original fixed china cabinet. The living room is lovely and bright thanks to the bay window at the front and the French doors at the back and has a cosy gas fireplace in the middle of the room. In the morning, you can sit at the front in the sun, at the table or on a bench in front, to read the newspaper and have a cup of coffee. The garden is well-kept and a lovely place to sit with a book or a drink at the end of the afternoon. From early spring onwards, you can sit here nicely out of the wind and in the sun. The detached shed is spacious enough for several bikes and as extra storage space. The enclosed back entrance leads directly to the Spaarndamseweg. The first floor accommodates two large bedrooms and a smaller bedroom, among others. The master bedroom at the rear has French doors to the balcony. The large attic on the 2nd floor is now an open space, surprisingly high (over 4 metres!) and with extra storage space through a mezzanine. There is plenty of light here too, through dormers at the front and rear and an additional skylight. On this floor, there is a separate storage room with washing machine and dryer connections. The floor is large enough to realise several bedrooms and possibly a second bathroom. The location is super! Very central, easily accessible and with all imaginable facilities within easy reach. Just across the water you will find padel courts, 'Mooie Boules - with jeu de boules lanes and a bar/restaurant, the city beach on the Spaarne and the former Koepelgevangenis where a cinema is now located, all within a 10-minute walk. Within a few minutes' cycling you are in the bustling centre of Haarlem with shops, museums, theatres and many restaurants and cafés. The NS railway station is at walking distance, with direct connections to Amsterdam and Leiden, and by car you are on the A200 and A9/A5 to Amsterdam and Schiphol in no time. In summer, you cycle along the traffic jams to the beach and literally around the corner you walk straight into the green surroundings of ‘de Bolwerken’.
