Herengracht 111441 EV PurmerendZuiderpolder

Single-level living in a historic townhouse, with views over the city canal and the park. In one of the most beautiful locations in Purmerend, on the edge of the city center, you’ll find stunning townhouses dating from the early 20th century. One of these houses contains this spacious and bright apartment with two bedrooms, a beautiful bathroom, a separate toilet, and a generous living room. High ceilings with decorative moldings, en-suite doors, panel doors, and wooden floors create the atmosphere of this charming home. French doors provide access to the deep private garden with a storage shed and rear entrance. Until the early 20th century, Purmerend remained almost entirely enclosed within its historic canals and fortifications. Only after 1900 did the city begin to expand. One of the new streets was the “Herengracht,” named to emphasize its grandeur. With the city canal and park directly opposite, you live in one of the most attractive spots in town. Within a minute you can reach Tramplein, with a bus stop and the Melkwegbrug bridge to Weidevenne. **Layout:** **Ground floor:** Through the shared entrance, you reach the front door of this single-level apartment, located on the ground floor. Behind the door is a private hallway consisting of two sections. The wooden flooring, plasterwork, panel doors, and high ceilings set the tone. In the second part of the hallway, you’ll find a spacious storage cupboard, a toilet with a small sink, and the bathroom. The latter, featuring a semi-circular walk-in shower and a vanity unit, is exceptionally beautiful. At the front is a bright bedroom with a wide bay window and an elegant en-suite connection to the living room. This space is ready for a new interpretation, combining historical character with modern elements. Large windows allow plenty of natural light, and the view towards the water and greenery is lovely. Behind the en-suite doors is the nearly 10-meter-long living/dining room, with French doors opening onto the garden. As there is currently no kitchen in the apartment, this is a very suitable space to create one—resulting in a cozy kitchen-diner while still leaving plenty of room for a large sofa. The second bedroom, located at the garden side, can serve various purposes. It is ideal as a children’s room, office, hobby room, or even as a space to install the kitchen. **Garden:** With a length of approximately 13 meters, this ground-floor apartment has a generously sized garden. The first section is paved, perfect for enjoying drinks with friends or family, while the second section is ready for further landscaping. The (bicycle) storage shed has a door leading to the alley. **Surroundings:** Everything that Purmerend has to offer is within walking or cycling distance. If you need to travel outside the city, both bus and train are excellent options. The train station is only 800 meters away! By car, it’s about a 2-kilometer drive to the A7 motorway, with Amsterdam’s A10 ring road just 15 kilometers from home. **Parking:** Parking in the immediate vicinity is public and paid, but free parking is available within a short walking distance. **Details:** * Living area approx. 73 m² * Municipal monument * Ground-floor apartment with a spacious garden * Two bedrooms * Beautiful bathroom and separate toilet * Kitchen to be installed by the buyer * Newly established homeowners’ association (VvE), service costs approx. €100 per month * “As is, where is” clause and asbestos clause will be included * Energy label A * Quick completion possible The non-binding information shown on this website has been compiled by us with care, based on data provided by the seller and/or third parties.
