Ceramstraat 112022 BK HaarlemSoendabuurt

In a green and friendly street in the Indische Buurt, you will find this well-maintained yet-to-be-modernized family home (1927) with both a front and back garden. This solidly built family house has been lovingly and carefully occupied by the previous owner for over 25 years and is now ready for a new owner who recognizes its potential and is prepared to give it the necessary update. This is truly a 1920s home with a strong foundation: a front garden, practical layout, well-proportioned rooms, and a back garden with an attached storage shed. If you require more space, there is the possibility to extend the property according to your own wishes. LOCATION The location is ideal. Just a few steps away, you will find the Albert Heijn XL supermarket, and every Thursday there is a lively fresh market. Around the corner is the shopping street De Cronjé, featuring HEMA, various specialty shops, and cafés and restaurants. Julianapark, the park along Kleverlaan, and the Haarlem Kweektuin are also nearby. For children, this is a fantastic place to live. There is a playground and a football cage in the street, and primary and secondary schools, as well as various sports clubs, are within short cycling distance. The Bolwerken and the Kweektuin offer plenty of green space for relaxation. If you wish to venture further into nature, you can cycle through the dunes to the beaches of Bloemendaal or Zandvoort in approximately half an hour. Haarlem Station and the main roads towards Amsterdam, Schiphol, and Alkmaar are easily accessible, making the location attractive for commuters as well. A wonderful combination of vibrant city life and peaceful green surroundings. LAYOUT Upon entering, you step into the wide hallway with a toilet and staircase. From here, you enter the spacious living room. At the front of the house, there is space for a generous seating area, while at the rear there is ample room for a large dining table where you can enjoy meals together, help with homework, and spend long evenings with friends. The kitchen is located at the garden side, and through the back door you step directly into the garden. At the rear of the garden, there is a practical storage shed for bicycles, toys, and garden tools. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, making this home highly suitable for a growing family. The two larger bedrooms are generously sized, and the third room is perfect as a child’s bedroom, home office, or hobby room. The centrally located bathroom is equipped with a shower, washbasin, toilet (sanibroyeur), and washing machine connection. A separate staircase leads to the attic loft. This floor is ideal for storage of suitcases and seasonal items. The central heating boiler is also located here.
