Energy label A, 134 m² of living space, a 150 m² plot, and an 18-metre deep southwest-facing garden – this spacious and bright family home in the popular Leidsebuurt truly has it all! Enjoy the peace and charm of a quiet street, while still being just a short stroll from Haarlem’s vibrant city centre. Within minutes, you’ll find yourself at lively shops, cafés, and restaurants, and by bike you can reach the beach or the dunes in under fifteen minutes. The house immediately stands out thanks to its generous layout, large windows, and original features such as the stained-glass at the front, a wood-burning stove, and the stunning English castle floor in the living room. The skylight in the kitchen further enhances the home’s open and airy feel. The back garden is a real gem: no less than 18 metres deep, southwest-facing, and equipped with a shed and back entrance. The garden is full of surprises – from a fig tree, kiwi berry, and apple tree to strawberries and various vegetables and herbs. A wonderful place to enjoy the sun, and for garden lovers, a true delight to grow and harvest. The location is ideal: everything is within easy reach. Just around the corner you’ll find a local playground and small grocery shop. For your weekly shopping, head to Plaza West or the Saturday market at Botermarkt. Haarlem’s city centre with its boutiques, cafés, restaurants, Pathé cinema, gyms, and theatre are all within walking distance. In the mood for nature? Within 15 minutes you’ll reach the Kennemer Dunes, Elswout Estate, or Kraantje Lek. Public transport connections are also excellent: Haarlem station is only a 5-minute bike ride away, and buses from Wilhelminastraat take you quickly to Amsterdam Zuid or Schiphol. Upon entering the ground floor, you are welcomed by a beautifully tiled hallway with granite floor. The extended living room is bright and inviting, with a wood-burning stove at the rear and an open-plan kitchen. The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped, and French doors open directly onto the sunny back garden, where you can enjoy the sun until late in the evening. The garden also features a wooden shed and a practical back entrance. Behind the kitchen, you’ll find a small hallway with a toilet and a utility room with laundry facilities and access to the garden. On the first floor, the spacious front bedroom impresses with its high ceiling. The centrally located bathroom is fully equipped with a bathtub, walk-in shower, second toilet, and sink. For extra comfort, the bathroom has underfloor heating. At the rear lies the second bedroom, with lovely views over the garden. The second floor is a pleasant surprise, offering a generous space with French doors opening onto a southwest-facing balcony. This versatile area can be used as a peaceful home office, an extra bedroom, or even a creative studio. And if you prefer an additional bedroom, it can be easily created here. The view towards the Basilica of Saint Bavo makes this floor truly special. In short: a wonderfully bright and spacious family home with a deep sunny garden, plenty of comfort, and a prime location close to both the city and nature.
