Charming 1940s Townhouse with Great Potential on Cosijnstraat This charming 1940s mid-terrace home on Cosijnstraat offers plenty of potential. Inside, the property can still be finished entirely to your own taste. It’s also possible to create additional space through an extension or a dormer. The bay window at the front, the original panel doors, and the high ceilings all contribute to the home’s inviting character. The house is in good, livable condition, but could be modernized in certain areas if desired. All floors are made of concrete, quite unique for homes from this period. The southeast-facing garden includes a shed and a convenient back entrance. The second floor provides extra storage and offers the possibility of adding a dormer to transform it into a functional living space, adding valuable extra square meters of floor area.
