Krommesteeg 11441 BK PurmerendBinnenstad

In the 19th century, residents of the hamlet of Purmer had to flee floods. They moved to an elevated spot, today's Kaasmarkt, and began building houses and businesses there. One of the streets that was built on at that time is Krommesteeg, where this fantastic building from around 1885 stands. The facade makes it clear that a cigar factory used to be located here, but the property's first use was as a tea warehouse. This is a unique opportunity to buy an entire property in the old center of Purmerend! The tea warehouse of P. Battum Jzn.was converted into a tobacco and cigar factory a century later, in 1910, by order of Mr. D. Dekker. Next to the store was a drying room where about fifty thousand cigars were left to dry and tobacco leaves were also carved. On the second floor, the leaves were sorted and the cigars rolled. The second floor was used as storage for the tobacco. Now this unique building is a fantastic residence with four floors and a roof terrace, right in the old center of Purmerend. Since 2004 this building has been beautifully converted into a beautiful mansion with no less than four floors and a spacious roof terrace. In a special way the monumental atmosphere has been preserved. There has been professionally renovated and everything is v.v. contemporary materials, technical installations, facilities, insulation etc. Layout: First floor: Behind the dark green front door s the beautiful hall, with the meter cupboard and an indoor (bicycle) storage room.
