Leidsestraat 1062013 XP HaarlemLeidsebuurt-west

CHARMING, BRIGHT AND COMPLETELY READY FOR ITS NEXT OWNER! Behind the charming façade of this characteristic corner house lies a surprisingly bright and welcoming home. In recent years, the property has been extensively modernised, offering an attractive combination of character, comfort and contemporary living. Thanks to its corner position, large windows and high ceilings on the ground floor, the house feels wonderfully spacious and bright. The modern open-plan kitchen with island, together with the living room, forms the welcoming heart of the home. With three bedroom/home-office spaces, a sheltered patio and a permitted roof terrace, there is plenty of space for both comfortable indoor living and enjoying the outdoors. A great deal has also been upgraded behind the scenes. The roof has been replaced and insulated, the window frames have been renewed and fitted with insulating double glazing, and the ground floor features a concrete floor with comfortable underfloor heating. In short: a characterful, complete and move-in-ready home where you will quickly feel at home. The property is located in the popular Leidsebuurt, an attractive and lively residential neighbourhood within a short walk of Haarlem’s historic city centre. Here you can enjoy a peaceful residential setting while having all the amenities and atmosphere of the city close at hand. Whether you are looking for coffee, lunch, dinner or an afternoon of shopping, the city centre is just a short walk away. Daily shopping is equally convenient: West Plaza shopping centre, with Albert Heijn, Action, a gym and various other shops, is within walking distance. Several schools are also located nearby. Haarlem railway station and the main roads towards Amsterdam, Alkmaar and other destinations are easily accessible. And when you feel like escaping into nature, the dunes and beach are within easy cycling distance. GROUND FLOOR The entrance leads into a spacious hallway with the meter cupboard and modern toilet. From here you enter the living room, where the abundance of natural light immediately stands out. Thanks to the corner position and large windows, daylight enters from several sides. Combined with the high ceilings, this gives the living area a wonderfully spacious and open feel. At the rear is the modern open-plan kitchen, which connects seamlessly with the living room. The kitchen island not only provides additional workspace but also creates a pleasant place to cook together and enjoy each other’s company. The kitchen is equipped with various built-in appliances. French doors open onto the sheltered ground-floor patio, a lovely place for coffee or simply relaxing. And there is even more outdoor space! The permitted roof terrace is accessible from the patio, providing another wonderful place to enjoy the sun and outdoor living. At the rear of the property there is also a practical storage room, accessible both from the patio and directly from the public road. Ideal for bicycles and other belongings, without having to take them through the house. FIRST FLOOR The first floor offers two bedroom/home-office spaces, accessible from the landing. Here you will also find the well-maintained bathroom with shower, washbasin and second toilet. The central heating system is located on this floor as well. Beneath the stairs leading to the second floor there is a dedicated shoe storage area. SECOND FLOOR The second floor offers a spacious third bedroom/home-office space. Thanks to the large dormer window, this is a surprisingly bright and pleasant room that is ideal as a bedroom, home office or hobby room.
