Reigerstraat 103816 AX AmersfoortComponistenbuurt-Noord

AMERSFOORT – REIGERSTRAAT 10 At Reigerstraat 10 in Amersfoort stands a property that does not immediately reveal what lies behind its façade. Hidden within is an impressive loft of 552 m², featuring patios, a basement, and three self-contained studios. The property originated from the transformation of a 1939 commercial building and combines industrial architecture with contemporary living comfort. The spaces can also be easily reconfigured or divided. The loft offers generous living areas alongside three independent studios, each with its own facilities. This makes the property ideally suited for a family with adult children, a combination of living and working, or a lifestyle where togetherness and independence go hand in hand – apart together. The building is part of a small homeowners’ association (HOA) consisting of five apartments: four at the front (collectively 40%) and this loft (60%). Shared responsibilities are limited to the front section, while insurance and management are well organized. Reigerstraat 10 is not a standard home, but a place for those who consciously choose space, flexibility, and character. A home that surprises, offers privacy, and provides endless possibilities. BACKGROUND AND HISTORY The building dates back to 1939 and originally served as an industrial property. Its recent transformation into a residence has been carried out with care and attention to detail. Concrete, masonry, wood, and glass form a solid foundation that simultaneously offers warmth and high-quality living comfort. The result is a loft that feels robust and spacious, yet welcoming and practical. The property is located in the De Kattekampen neighbourhood, often referred to as the “diamond of Amersfoort” due to the shape of its streets. This 1930s residential area—including Reigerstraat, Zwaanstraat, Kalkoenstraat, Pauwstraat, and parts of Heiligenbergerweg and Bisschopsweg—has an intimate and lively atmosphere. The small square with its large tree is a place where neighbours meet and children can play freely. De Kattekampen is part of the Componistenbuurt-Noord in the Randenbroek district, a green and highly desirable residential area with wide streets, mature trees, and characteristic 1930s architecture. With both Park Randenbroek and Amersfoort’s historic city centre within walking distance, and the Euterpeplein shopping centre just around the corner, urban living and nature blend seamlessly here. Amersfoort is known as a historic city, with a medieval centre, canals, and squares that reflect its rich heritage. This loft continues that tradition of preservation and transformation, adding a contemporary and bold dimension. THE TOUR Entrance From the street, the façade offers only a glimpse of the scale within. The deep entrance hall provides space for cars or even a camper and forms the transition from street to home. Behind the glass frontage unfolds a multifunctional space of approximately 62 m², with a long internal storage area along the right-hand side. Studios and First Patio The property is organized around two patios that bring in light and air while also offering shelter. The first patio, approximately 29 m², acts as an intimate outdoor room. Around it are three studios: one spacious and two smaller ones. Each studio features its own living/sleeping area, bathroom, and direct access to the patio. In addition, each studio has its own central heating system with underfloor heating. This makes them highly suitable as guest accommodation, rental units, studios, or workspaces. Intermediate Area and Facilities A central corridor connects the multifunctional space to the rear part of the home. Here you will find another studio and two bedrooms, along with a spacious bathroom equipped with double showers, double washbasins, and double toilets. This area forms the transition between the intimate studio spaces and the open living area beyond. Loft and Second Patio Beyond the second patio lies the heart of the home: a stunningly spacious loft featuring a dining area, an open-plan kitchen with a large island, and a generous living room. The second patio, nearly 62 m², functions as a green room that draws daylight deep into the house. It defines the rhythm of daily living: high ceilings capture the light, French doors connect indoor and outdoor spaces, and the atmosphere remains intimate and sheltered. Life unfolds entirely behind the façade—completely private and shielded from outside view. Master Suite At the rear is the master suite: a fully private retreat with a spacious bedroom, a large walk-in closet, and a luxurious bathroom featuring double washbasins, a separate toilet, double shower, and a round bathtub. Basement Beneath the home is an 81 m² basement with a ceiling height of 2.10 metres, suitable as a studio, gym, hobby room, or wine cellar. THE PATIOS AS OUTDOOR SPACE The two patios form the beating heart of the home. Together covering 92 m², they create sheltered outdoor rooms directly connected to the living spaces. Natural light penetrates deep into the layout, giving each room its own character, while surrounding walls ensure privacy and protection. The patios can be used throughout the year. Thanks to their sheltered position, there is always a spot in the sun and out of the wind—365 days a year. In summer they extend the living space, while in winter they bring light and air into the home. ZONING AND POSSIBILITIES The property is designated “Residential – 1” with a “Mixed Use” indication. This means it is primarily intended for residential use, but also allows for additional functions such as working from home or mixed-use purposes. The existing studios fit perfectly within this framework and can be used as workspaces, guest accommodation, or potentially as a Bed & Breakfast or Airbnb. For structural rental or tourist use, consultation with the municipality is advised, as additional permits may be required. The zoning plan allows a maximum of two storeys, which the current layout fully complies with. TARGET GROUPS This property appeals to a wide range of buyers: a couple seeking spacious and comfortable living, a family looking for flexibility, a blended household valuing individual space, or multiple generations wishing to live under one roof. Thanks to the independent studios, the property is also attractive for those who want to combine living with hospitality. CONSTRUCTION AND TECHNICAL CONDITION The property was fully renovated in 2017, including the roof, installations, bathrooms, and kitchen. A recent independent building inspection provides a clear and honest assessment of the construction, finishes, and installations, confirming the property is in good condition. Both the inspection report and a NEN2580 measurement report are available. SUSTAINABILITY During the transformation, significant attention was given to insulation and energy efficiency. An up-to-date energy label will be provided prior to sale. LOCATION AND ACCESSIBILITY The location is both central and strategic. The historic centre of Amersfoort and Park Randenbroek are just minutes away by bike. Amersfoort Central Station offers fast connections to Utrecht, Amsterdam, Deventer, and Apeldoorn. The A1 and A28 motorways are easily accessible within minutes. Schools, shops, and sports facilities are all nearby. 10 REASONS TO BUY THIS PROPERTY Loft of 552 m² with basement and patios Carefully renovated with attention to detail Robust construction and generous scale Three studios suitable for B&B, rental, or guests Ideal for multi-generational living Complete privacy with no overlooking neighbours Sheltered outdoor spaces totalling 92 m² Structurally sound and move-in ready Located in Randenbroek, near the centre and park Excellent accessibility via station and highways IN SUMMARY Reigerstraat 10 is an exceptional loft: spacious and robust, yet comfortable and flexible.
