Achterom 12042 JT ZandvoortCentrum

* Unique Living Steeped in History, Atmosphere and Character in the Heart of Zandvoort A property like this rarely comes onto the market. This municipal monument, built between approximately 1750 and 1780, is steeped in history and nostalgia. Originally, the property housed a blacksmith’s workshop and a residence. As soon as you step inside, you are welcomed by its distinctive atmosphere. Authentic building materials and characteristic features tell the story of this historic property. One particularly remarkable feature can be found on the patio: the oldest and only publicly visible millstone in Zandvoort. In the past, this stone was used in the blacksmith’s workshop to fit iron rims around cartwheels. In addition to the town centre, Zandvoort beach is also within walking distance. Ground Floor: The entrance to the house is accessed via the patio. The hallway provides access to the bathroom, fitted with a shower, toilet and washbasin, the staircase to the first floor and the living room. The inviting living room is characterised by its many traditional multi-pane windows, which allow plenty of natural light to enter. French doors open directly onto the patio, creating a pleasant connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. The authentic fireplace, featuring a traditional Dutch tiled back panel and a stove, is a real eye-catcher. The open-plan kitchen includes a deep built-in cupboard and complements the room’s distinctive character. The spacious storage room can also be accessed from the living room. The ceiling beams deserve special mention: all but one are original and date back to the eighteenth century. These historic details lend the interior its warm and authentic character. First Floor: The staircase leads to the spacious first floor. Here, you will find a generously sized bedroom featuring a charming dormer window and traditional multi-pane windows. A bespoke fitted wardrobe runs the entire length of the room, providing ample storage space. The second bedroom is also accessed from this room.
