Nieuwe Gracht 86-RD2011 NK HaarlemStationsbuurt

Fantastic two storey apartment right in the center of Haarlem! In characteristic, monumental building with a bright living room, four bedrooms, an extra study, large kitchen, spacious storage room on the ground floor and 2 roof terraces. Beautiful view. In the historic old town: on the canal, wide, easily accessible and with schools, stores, sports and ov nearby. But also; plenty of parking and not bothered by the nightlife. Wow! What a great house. The location, on water, the appearance, character, light, modern finishes, storage space and outdoor space; this spacious apartment has it all! The house has been tastefully renovated while maintaining originality. The beautiful ornamental ceilings have been restored and in the living room an interior wall has been placed from an old Amsterdam canal house, complete with mirror and built-in bookcase. A great combination with the sturdy suite doors, wide wooden parts of the parquet floor and on sunny days with the green and white awnings on the outside. The living room has no less than 4 large windows, making it wonderfully light. Here you look directly on the Nieuwe Gracht, with the effect that water has; peace and livelihood. Ducks and glare of the sun in the ripples on the water, but also tour boats, sloops and suppers. The heart of the house is the large but cozy kitchen. A great space with a bold finish; large tiles with floor heating, wooden kitchen cabinets, many large drawers, a large peninsula with breakfast bar and a large gas stove. One of the many nice details of the house is the semicircular passage to the sitting room. Of which the original door has been preserved. The roof terrace off the kitchen has the morning sun. A wonderful place for a cup of coffee and reading the newspaper. Standing outside here feels like being on vacation for a while; a beautiful city garden, tall trees and birdsong all around you. The second floor accommodates four bedrooms. All rooms with unique features; dormers, rafters, lowered ceilings or built-in closets; each room breathes its own atmosphere. On the floor you can still find doors from the past, from when the property served as a guesthouse. Amidst the rooms is the modern bathroom with beautiful granite floor with underfloor heating. A wonderful space to unwind after a busy day, which was enlarged in 2014 to accommodate both the large walk-in shower and bathtub. A fixed staircase leads to the attic with access to the second and largest roof terrace. This fan-tas-tic terrace has sun all day and offers breathtaking views of the city. History can not only be felt but also seen here, you can see the towers of 5 major churches. Details and convenience have been thought of, for example, there is ample storage space for garden cushions, the bbq and a refrigerator, there is atmospheric outdoor lighting, there are electrical outlets, a water connection and the deck is made of low-maintenance synthetic parts. The location is perfect! In the attractive center that Haarlem is known for, between the NS-station and the Grote Markt. Around the corner from shopping streets with various boutiques, restaurants, cafes and museums. For daily shopping you can go to the (local) supermarket or various specialty stores and also schools and child care can be found in the vicinity.
