Haarlem
Schotersingel 85
Description
A stately house on Schotersingel with views overlooking Haarlem’s Bolwerken. This spacious property has already been prepared for a high-quality renovation and offers a unique opportunity to complete a listed city house entirely to your own specifications. With a living area of approximately 236 m², this listed building offers plenty of space for a spacious family home. In its current layout, there is space for a large living room, a kitchen-diner, six bedrooms and two bathrooms. The location combines a peaceful setting and water views with excellent transport connections: Haarlem station is just a few minutes’ walk away and offers direct services to Amsterdam, Schiphol and the coast.
This stately family home, dating from 1900, is a classic canal-side house and has been designated a municipal monument due to its historical and architectural value. The property is designed in a refined Neo-Renaissance style, recognisable by its rich brickwork and carefully ornamented façade. The architecture reflects the workmanship and attention to detail characteristic of the prestigious townhouses of this period.
During the renovation, the characteristic features have been preserved. These include the high ceilings with ornamental mouldings, the stained-glass windows in the living room, marble fireplaces and the classic en-suite layout. The living room runs from front to back and features a conservatory on both sides with high windows, allowing plenty of light to enter. French doors at the rear provide access to the north-west facing garden. The first and second floors have been prepared for a new layout with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. On the top floor, the original wooden beams have been left exposed, giving the floor a warm and characterful look.
Its location on Schotersingel is one of the most attractive spots in Haarlem-Noord. The house forms part of one of Haarlem’s most characterful urban fringes. The property overlooks the water and De Bolwerken city park, whilst the centre of Haarlem is just a short distance away. The immediate vicinity includes the Dolhuys Museum, various playgrounds, good primary and secondary schools, and the local shops on Kleverparkweg. Here you will find, among other things, a bakery, a butcher, a fishmonger, a delicatessen and a wine shop. There are also restaurants and cafés in the neighbourhood. Haarlem railway station is about a six-minute walk away. By bike, you can reach the historic centre in just a few minutes. The dunes and the beach at Bloemendaal are also within easy reach.
