Haarlem
Glasblazersstraat 4
Description
A hidden gem close to the Spaarne River! A three-story townhouse that has been completely renovated from top to bottom. The home has an Energy Label B and offers gas-free living comfort. The location? In the beloved Burgwalbuurt neighborhood, part of the Old Town, with its narrow streets, historic buildings, and hidden courtyards. Moreover, the home is just a stone’s throw from the bustling city center, putting all amenities, shops, restaurants, and cultural hotspots within easy reach.
Behind the distinctive facade lies a surprisingly spacious townhouse, spread over three full floors. Each floor has its own function and atmosphere, creating a playful and unique living experience. The ground floor features a cozy kitchen-diner with a modern kitchen unit, plenty of workspace, and a cozy bar where you can enjoy breakfast or have a drink with friends. Thanks to this layout, you can easily socialize and cook together. The first floor is entirely designed as a living room, effectively creating a separate living area. This setup offers a great deal of privacy and creates a pleasant place to relax, separate from the kitchen-diner on the ground floor. The first floor also features a south-west facing balcony that spans the full width of the home, allowing you to fully enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. On the top floor, the open connection between the sleeping area and the bathroom creates a modern, bright, and spacious atmosphere. The bathroom, renovated in 2019, features a bathtub, walk-in shower, and modern vanity. Thanks to the smart layout and abundant natural light, this floor feels like a stylish private suite.
The bustling center of Haarlem is literally at your feet; just cross the Catharijnebrug and you’ll find yourself surrounded by the many restaurants, cafes, museums, and historic buildings that Haarlem has to offer. Heading out of town? Major roads leading to Amsterdam, Hoofddorp, Alkmaar, and Schiphol are easily accessible; public transportation is about a 10-minute walk away, and by bike, you can reach the woods and dunes in 15 minutes.
