Middenweg 94 – Elegant Townhouse with Grandeur and Space On the Middenweg, in the heart of Watergraafsmeer, stands this impressive semi-detached townhouse with a living area of approx. 267 m², situated on a generous 443 m² plot (freehold). A home full of character, where classic elegance meets modern comfort. The property features its own driveway with space for two cars and a front garden that adds extra distinction to its stately appearance. Authentic details – such as the prominent bay window, stained-glass windows, and marble vestibule – set the tone for what lies within. The owner shares: “For us as a family, the garden has always been the highlight of living here. It’s always bright and sunny, full of blooming flowers (roses, clematis, hydrangeas, rhododendrons). We’ve spent long summer evenings here with family and friends – barbecuing, celebrating birthdays, or simply relaxing. Even in early spring, we’d sit outside for Easter breakfast, wrapped in a cardigan. The neighborhood is surprisingly lively. We’ve organized parties and drinks with the neighbors – even a beach party once when the street was under construction! There’s plenty of social life and connection, but also peace and privacy. In spring, you can hear the birds building their nests – and sometimes even spot a little hedgehog.” Layout You enter through the wooden front door into a beautiful marble vestibule, immediately feeling the grandeur of this townhouse. The high ceilings throughout the home create a sense of light, space, and luxury. At the front is the living room, where the fireplace and classic bay window provide a warm and inviting atmosphere. Through original ensuite doors with detailed woodwork, you enter the rear living room, overlooking the deep, sunny garden through large windows. Both front and rear rooms feature the original restored oak flooring. The kitchen, located at the rear, is modern and stylish, equipped with a Quooker, refrigerator, oven, steam oven, 5-burner induction hob, and dishwasher. From both the kitchen and rear living room, you step directly into the garden, which has a solidly built terrace. The French doors feature stained-glass transom windows. The back garden is truly a discovery: approx. 23 meters deep and 9.6 meters wide, facing southwest, offering full privacy and sunshine throughout the day — perfect for relaxation, play, or entertaining. Beneath the kitchen is a cellar providing extra storage space. Extension In 2015, the property was stylishly and substantially extended on the side. The former garage was transformed into a high-quality multifunctional living space with an elegant design. Thanks to skylights, a large solar-control glass façade, and underfloor heating, this is a bright and inviting area with endless possibilities. At the rear is a charming room with ample glass, ideal as a home office, guest room, or ground-floor bedroom. The extension also includes a toilet, storage room, and connections for an additional kitchenette. At the front, a separate room with its own entrance from the driveway and an attractive mezzanine offers the perfect setup for a home office or practice space. First Floor The first floor accommodates three spacious bedrooms with ample built-in storage. The master bedroom at the rear has a large balcony overlooking the garden and direct access to the bathroom, which features a bathtub, shower, washbasin unit, and toilet (also accessible from the landing). The front bedroom has a balcony above the bay window and currently serves as a bright home office. Second Floor The second floor offers three more generous bedrooms, a separate storage room, and a second bathroom (added in 2004) with shower, washbasin, and connections for washer and dryer. There is also a separate toilet on this level. Through the central storage area, you reach the roof, which was fitted in 2014 with a durable sedum green roof. The structure was reinforced to ensure a solid and future-proof construction. A rooflight on the landing provides additional natural light.
