Character, space, and an authentic aesthetic come together beautifully in this 1930s home on Burgemeester Palingstraat. Built in 1931 and located in the sought-after 'Burgemeesterskwartier' (Mayors' Quarter) of Alkmaar, this townhouse stands out for its many original details that have been carefully preserved. It is a home with a distinct personality, where the charm of the 1930s remains the central theme.
The living room serves as the atmospheric heart of the house, featuring original stained-glass sliding doors, an authentic fireplace, and a characteristic bay window. The connection to the dining room creates a pleasant, open flow, while the spacious kitchen offers ample room for elaborate cooking and social gatherings. French doors provide a seamless transition out into the back garden.
Facing southeast, the garden is a wonderful space for outdoor living—perfect for enjoying a morning coffee in the sun, a long weekend lunch, or a pleasant evening with friends.
There is no shortage of space upstairs, either, with a total of five bedrooms. The first floor houses three bedrooms and a renovated, modern bathroom, complete with a walk-in rain shower, a second toilet, and a vanity unit with drawers. One of the rear bedrooms offers direct access to a roof terrace. The second floor features two spacious bedrooms, both equipped with dormer windows and built-in closets. A unique touch is the freestanding bathtub located in one of these rooms—a perfect spot to unwind and relax completely.
And the surrounding area? It only adds to the appeal of living here. You will live just a short distance from the historic city center of Alkmaar, with shops, outdoor terraces, and restaurants all within easy reach. For a leisurely stroll or a quiet moment, 'Cultuurpark de Hout' is right around the corner. Major arterial roads are also close by, making a trip to the coast quick and convenient.
A distinctive townhouse featuring authentic details, a spacious layout, and a highly sought-after location. It is the perfect choice if you appreciate the charm of a 1930s property and desire a home where character and space go hand in hand.
