Korte Lakenstraat 152011 ZD HaarlemVijfhoek

Fully renovated city home! Right in the heart of the Vijfhoek, built in the style of a former warehouse. A characterful home offering all the comforts of modern living. Featuring an inviting living space with an open-plan kitchen, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sunny roof terrace and an additional sleeping/work floor beneath the roof. The renovation also took a flexible layout into account, with preparations for a second kitchen on the first floor and washing machine connections on both residential floors. And all of this in one of Haarlem’s most popular neighbourhoods! What a wonderful place to live! As soon as you step inside, it is clear that the property has been renovated with great attention to detail. The granito-look floor tiles, tall doors and characteristic features perfectly complement the building’s distinctive architecture. Originally built in 1995 as a workshop with living accommodation above, the property was designed in the style of a traditional warehouse. Double doors lead into the living area on the ground floor. At the front is the dining area, with large doors and windows above. On a sunny day, simply open the doors and enjoy sitting outside at street level, facing west. This is exactly the relaxed neighbourhood atmosphere that makes the Vijfhoek so popular. The open-plan kitchen connects beautifully to this space and features a welcoming breakfast bar and plenty of storage. At the rear, a wonderfully peaceful sitting area has been created. A large skylight brings in plenty of natural light, making this the perfect place to relax and unwind. Upstairs, the distinctive architecture of the property really comes into its own. Here too, the renovation has been designed with different uses in mind: preparations have been made for the installation of a kitchen on the first floor, along with a second washing machine connection. The bedroom at the front is full of character, with a partially vaulted ceiling, wide French doors opening onto the Juliet balcony and a characteristic hoisting hook on the façade. At the rear is a surprisingly spacious and bright second bedroom, with plenty of room for a home office or walk-in wardrobe. Large sliding doors provide access to the sunny roof terrace. And there is even another floor: a fixed staircase leads to the attic space beneath the roof, with two large skylights and a side window. This space is currently used as an additional sleeping area. The location is fantastic! There is a reason why the Vijfhoek is one of Haarlem’s most sought-after neighbourhoods. Charming narrow streets, friendly neighbours and great coffee bars, restaurants and shops just around the corner. The Grote Markt, Botermarkt and the rest of Haarlem’s historic city centre are all within easy walking distance. Haarlem Central Station is also close by, while the dunes and beach are easily reached by bike. Right in the heart of the city, yet with that wonderful neighbourhood feel!
