Behind this characteristic facade lies a true gem… Some houses need to be experienced from the inside to truly understand how special they are. This spacious 1930s townhouse from 1938 surprises you the moment you step inside: atmosphere, space, light, and character come together here in a unique way. From the beautiful original ensuite doors with stained glass to the impressively deep, sunny backyard of approximately 22 meters — this is the kind of home you rarely come across. Over the past few years, the current owner has modernized the home with great care, love, and an eye for detail, while truly preserving every authentic element. The result is a warm and stylish family home where character and contemporary living comfort come together perfectly. And then there is the garden… what a place. As soon as the French doors are open, you literally step into a green oasis of tranquility. Mature trees provide exceptional privacy and give the feeling of living freely amidst greenery. The deep southeast-facing backyard offers multiple terraces, ensuring there is always a spot to be found in the sun or shade. Immediately adjacent to the house is a lovely terrace for the morning sun, while the second terrace offers ample space for long summer evenings with a large dining table. A charming detail is the old apple tree that yields delicious apples every year for homemade apple pie. Furthermore, thanks to the generous depth of the plot, the home offers excellent opportunities for future expansion. The location is also ideal. The house is situated in a quiet and child-friendly 1930s neighborhood with an unobstructed view of greenery and water at the front. Because there is no building directly opposite the house, you enjoy an exceptional sense of peace, space, and privacy here — a quality rarely found these days. Voorschoten Station is literally a stone's throw away, and access roads to the N44, A4, and A12 are also easily accessible. Moreover, parking here is still truly pleasant: there is ample parking space on the street, meaning there is almost always a spot right in front of the door. Layout Ground Floor Via the well-maintained front garden, you reach the entrance with a vestibule, where the authentic atmosphere is immediately palpable thanks to the original wall tiles, the characteristic black-and-white 1930s flooring, and the stained-glass windows in the hall. The home still features all of its original solid wood panel doors — not standard flush doors, but beautiful, heavy doors of exceptional quality that contribute to the house's rich appearance. The living room en suite forms the absolute heart of the home. The atmospheric front and back rooms are separated by original sliding doors with stained glass and surrounded by four practical en suite cupboards with ample storage space for crockery, toys, or paperwork. The beautiful bay window at the front provides plenty of natural light and a stunning unobstructed view of the greenery and water, while the absence of direct neighbors across the street ensures a special sense of privacy and tranquility. Original details have truly been preserved everywhere here: stained glass at both the front and rear of the living room, original ceilings, marble fireplaces, and authentic finishes give the home a tremendous amount of character. Moreover, the original fireplace in the front room has been stylishly converted into a modern, high-efficiency fireplace, while the beautiful marble mantelpiece has been preserved. During the renovation, the kitchen was fully integrated into the living room, creating a spacious, open living area that perfectly suits modern family life. The modern kitchen with a kitchen island forms a cozy central spot in the home and is equipped with various built-in appliances, including a Cooker, combination oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, and electric hob. The entire ground floor is finished with high-quality solid oak flooring. Additionally, the home has been made more sustainable with professional floor insulation (2023), cavity wall insulation where possible, and full double glazing. Secondary glazing has also been installed behind the stained glass windows to preserve the authentic appearance without compromising on comfort. You reach the impressive backyard through French doors. The wide awning at the rear provides pleasant shade on warm days, while the canopies at the front—whose fabric is still in very good condition—fit perfectly with the characteristic appearance of the home. Furthermore, the ground floor features a modern wall-mounted toilet (completely renovated in 2025), a renovated meter cupboard, and a practical indoor cellar with ample space for supplies and storage. Additionally, there is a coal shed and an enlarged shed with sufficient room for bicycles, a scooter, a barbecue, and garden tools.

This floor is also tastefully finished with high-quality laminate flooring that perfectly complements the home's appearance. The bathroom was completely renovated in 2023 and features a modern design with a spacious walk-in shower, vanity unit with an original marble top, designer radiator, and recessed spotlights.
