Step inside this charming, character-filled corner house featuring a bright kitchen-diner in the extension, beautiful stained-glass windows, a sunny back garden, and a sustainable Energy Label B. Built in 1906, this inviting home has been lovingly maintained; it sits on a 79 m² plot and offers approximately 77 m² of living space. The house is located in the popular Transvaalbuurt neighborhood, just a stone's throw from everything that makes Haarlem so appealing. Literally around the corner lies the lively Cronjéstraat, offering a diverse range of specialty shops, retail stores, restaurants, cafés, and supermarkets. The weekly Thursday market, primary schools, childcare facilities, and playgrounds are also in the immediate vicinity. For a walk in nature, Mandela Park, the Kweektuin, and the Kloppersingel/Bolwerken area are all nearby. Moreover, you can walk or cycle to Haarlem’s bustling city center in just a few minutes to enjoy its lively terraces, restaurants, theaters, and museums. The Kennemerduinen dunes and the beaches of Bloemendaal and Zandvoort are also easily accessible by bicycle. Accessibility is excellent. Haarlem Station is just a few minutes away by foot or bike and offers a direct train connection to Amsterdam Central. Various bus connections, including a direct route to Amsterdam Zuid, are also nearby. Major roads leading to Amsterdam, Schiphol, and The Hague (A9) are easily accessible by car. Parking is available via a permit system. Layout Ground floor: You enter the charming kitchen-diner via the side entrance in the extension on President Steijnstraat. The characterful American vintage-style kitchen forms the heart of the home and is a wonderfully bright space thanks to the large skylight. The concrete subfloor is finished with tiles and features comfortable underfloor heating. The kitchen is equipped with a 5-burner gas stove with oven, an extractor hood, and a fridge-freezer. French doors open onto the surprisingly sunny back garden, which also has rear access. Despite its northerly aspect, it is a lovely spot to enjoy the sun, surrounded by features such as a beautiful wisteria, a (pleached) pear tree, and a grapevine. The modern bathroom is accessible from the kitchen and is fitted with a shower, vanity unit, toilet, electric underfloor heating, and connections for a washing machine. At the front, you will find the bright and inviting living room, featuring an oak floor (installed in 2024), beautiful stained-glass windows, and a high ceiling. Large windows allow for pleasant natural light from late morning onwards. An open staircase in the living room leads to the first floor. First floor: This level consists of a spacious open area—currently set up as a home office—where an extra bedroom could easily be created if desired. There is also a second toilet on this floor. At the rear lies a comfortable bedroom with built-in wardrobes; thanks to its north-facing position, it stays pleasantly cool during hot summer days. There is ample storage space on this floor, provided by fitted cupboards, eaves storage, and extra space in the roof apex.
