The seller explains What makes the current residents enjoy living here so much and why have they decided to sell the house? The seller explains. The history of Ruyschstraat 68hs. In 1901, Aagje Hartog and her husband Gerrit established the famous wholemeal bakery Hartog at Ruyschstraat 68. After 80 years, the bakery moved to no. 56 on the corner due to expansion. After that, my husband and I ran a business here selling fresh Italian pasta, with a shop. I enjoyed working in this wonderfully light space for 20 years and spent many hours on the sunny patio in the summer. In 2014, the commercial space was converted into a spacious apartment. Everyone who enters for the first time is surprised by the amount of light and space, the height of the ceiling, and the many possibilities this offers. Because I now live elsewhere, it is with some sadness that I am offering my apartment for sale.
