Zonnebloemlaan 32

This generously proportioned semi-detached house, dating from 1928, has been well maintained. In recent years, the property has been made more energy-efficient, resulting in an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of C. The house is full of character, charm and authentic period details. Light, space and atmosphere are key features, including high ceilings and elegant panelled doors.

The stylish living room is divided into a front and rear section, separated by a bespoke shelving unit, a wooden pivot door and continuous wooden parquet flooring. The front room, with its bay window, is beautifully light – a perfect spot for a morning coffee in the sun overlooking the green front garden. The hedge provides plenty of privacy and offers attractive views of hydrangeas, as well as apple and olive trees. The rear room invites long evenings of dining and reading in the separate seating area by the open fireplace. Folding doors create a seamless transition to the garden, connecting indoor and outdoor spaces beautifully. The kitchen-diner, with windows on both sides, forms the heart of the home. Bright, spacious and designed for gathering, the large kitchen island is perfect for family breakfasts, drinks with friends and children doing homework. With views of both the front and rear gardens – featuring wisteria and white hydrangeas – this is a truly welcoming space.

The rear garden, facing north-west and approximately 17 metres deep, is surprisingly spacious and attractively landscaped with several seating areas, a pergola with wisteria and a lawn for children to play. Directly adjoining the house is a sunny terrace, while at the back of the garden there is a charming seating area beneath a characteristic grapevine – a perfect setting for relaxed barbecues. The garden also features a heated garden house with a mezzanine, ideal as a practice, studio or home office. In addition, there is a separate storage shed for garden tools and equipment. The front garden can be accessed via the side of the house, where a wooden bicycle shed is also located.

Upstairs, the house continues to impress with its space and layout. The first floor offers two generous bedrooms, both with French doors opening onto a balcony. The rear bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe with ample deep shelving and drawers, while a second bathroom is located adjacent to the front bedroom. The second floor provides three further bedrooms with attractive exposed wooden beams, along with a third utility area featuring a washbasin and toilet. The loft offers extensive additional storage space and is well insulated.

The location completes the picture: a quiet, green avenue in Aerdenhout with everything within easy reach. Within minutes, you can walk to Heemstede-Aerdenhout station or the shops on Zandvoortselaan. Haarlem and the shopping streets of Heemstede are a short cycle away, while the beach, dunes and woodland are just around the corner. Here, you enjoy spacious, comfortable and centrally located living, with parking on your own driveway and all amenities close by.
