Oudegracht 461811 CL AlkmaarBinnenstad-Oost

Anyone wishing to live by the canal, right in the heart of Alkmaar's historic city center, while simultaneously enjoying peace, space, and plenty of light, will feel right at home here. At Oudegracht 46, this special combination comes together beautifully. Located on the corner of the Oudegracht and Bloemstraat, you enjoy wonderful tranquility, while the lively atmosphere of the city center is literally just around the corner. From the living room and the open kitchen, you have a beautiful view of the characteristic canal and experience the atmosphere of this unique place every day. As soon as you enter, the amount of space and light immediately catches the eye. In the past, the property consisted of two separate homes. The merging created an open L-shaped layout, where the living room, dining room, and kitchen flow seamlessly into one another thanks to the wooden herringbone floor. The Bulthaup kitchen features a kitchen island equipped with a 4-burner gas hob and extractor hood. The sink, oven, and dishwasher are located at the rear. A separate fridge-freezer is also present. The home also distinguishes itself with a practical utility room, followed by a toilet and a multi-purpose room. The former garage has been completely converted into living space and features a separate entrance. As a result, this space offers ample possibilities for, for example, a home office or practice, a studio, a bed & breakfast, or a (pre-)caregiver residence. Additionally, it is relatively easy to create a bedroom with a bathroom on the ground floor here, allowing the home to be made suitable for lifelong living. The bathroom on the first floor is an absolute surprise. It is remarkably spacious and features a freestanding bathtub, a generous walk-in shower, a washbasin, and a second toilet. The washing machine connection is also located here. Furthermore, from the bathroom, you can step directly onto the delightful, private roof terrace. A hidden spot where you can enjoy peace and quiet right in the city center. The location makes this home complete. For daily groceries, you can easily walk to the Jumbo on the Laat or the Spar around the corner. Do you feel like having lunch, drinks, or dinner? The cozy terraces on the Platte Stenenbrug and the Waagplein are easily accessible, as are the atmospheric shopping streets of the city center. On sunny days, you can discover the historic city center from the water and even sail past your own home. Naturally, you can also take a lovely walk in the Kennemerpark. Moreover, despite the central location, you can quickly reach the ring road and the A9 towards Amsterdam via the Vondelstraat. Are you looking for a characteristic home with surprisingly ample living space, plenty of possibilities for use, and a unique location where you live peacefully, yet right in the bustling center of Alkmaar? Then Oudegracht 46 is definitely worth a viewing.
