Layout


Ground floor
The entrance opens to a hallway with cloakroom, toilet, and a hobby room/utility room at the front. The ground floor features a spacious double living room. At the front, a charming room currently houses a grand piano and includes a built-in sitting area. At the rear, the second living room with an open fireplace offers another sitting area and flows into the dining space and open kitchen. The entire ground floor is on one level – there are no height differences. The generously sized kitchen provides direct access to the deep garden, which includes several terraces, a freestanding storage/bike shed, and a private rear entrance via an alley – ideal for parking bikes without going through the house.


First floor
The landing provides access to three bedrooms, one of which has a private en-suite bathroom with shower and washbasin. Both bathrooms feature a “lichtput” (horizontal skylight), allowing beautiful natural daylight to flood in. Additionally, the spacious main bathroom includes a double washbasin, walk-in shower, and bathtub. A separate toilet is also located on this floor. The primary bedroom at the rear overlooks the garden, while the front rooms enjoy lovely light through bay windows and classic-style frames.


Second staircase
The second staircase leads to a very spacious and peaceful study with garden views. This space is perfect as a home office or fourth bedroom and is often considered the most beautiful room in the house.


Basement
The property features a basement of approximately 41 m², divided into two rooms with a ceiling height of over 2 metres. It is well suited for storage, a workspace, or even a wine cellar.
