What an atmospheric property! This spacious terraced house from 1933 boasts numerous authentic and distinctive features that make this type of home so special. Among these are, for example, the granite floor in the entrance hall, the stained glass windows and doors, the tiled wainscoting, the marble fireplaces, and the paneled doors, all in excellent condition and beautifully preserved. You enter the home through a generous front garden via the front door into a spacious vestibule with a built-in wardrobe. From there, you proceed into the hallway with its striking granite floor and a staircase leading to the first floor. The living room suite features a cozy bay window, two marble fireplaces (one of which is equipped with a wood stove), and French doors opening onto the garden. The spacious open kitchen is fitted with built-in appliances and a door to the garden. The rear garden facing the northeast is a true paradise for garden lovers. It is wonderfully green, with several cozy seating areas and a pergola covered in grapevines. There, you will also find your very own blackberry and raspberry bushes, the sellers even make their own jam and raspberry cupcakes from them! On the first floor, you will find three bedrooms, one of which has a spacious balcony, and a modern bathroom with a walk-in shower, a bathroom unit, and a toilet. On the second floor, there is also a bathroom and a large en-suite bedroom that can easily be divided into a fourth and fifth bedroom. Additionally, a practical space is provided with a toilet and a location for the washing machine and dryer, as well as the installation of the central heating boiler and the inverter for the solar panels. On the landing, there is also a hatch providing access to the storage attic.
Orionweg is a wide street with a green central median, parking bays, and broad sidewalks. The neighborhood is very attractive: quiet, central, and family-friendly. The green Zaanenpark with its playground and skate park is just around the corner. The beautifully restored and repurposed Schoterbos is reachable within a five-minute walk. Transformed into a lively and attractive city park centered around ecology, urban nature, and recreation, it offers several outdoor sports facilities, a petting zoo, and the smallest zoo in the Netherlands: Artisklas. The “de Planeet” swimming pool, hockey clubs, football clubs, childcare facilities, and various primary and secondary schools are well represented in the area. The Westelijke Randweg and the N200, leading to the main highways, or the P+R Transferium at NS Spaarnwoude, are quickly reachable by car, and Haarlem Station is only 10 minutes away by bicycle. In about 20 minutes by bike, you can reach Bloemendaal aan Zee and the Kennemerduinen nature reserve; and within 10 minutes by bike, you are in the heart of Haarlem with all its charming shops, restaurants, art, culture and entertainment venues.
