Haarlem
Tuchthuisstraat 18
Description
A hidden gem in the heart of the Vijfhoek! A unique townhouse dating from 1890, with a playful layout, surprising details, three bedrooms and a wonderful private roof terrace. The property is in need of modernisation and offers plenty of potential to create a home entirely to your own taste. All this in a fantastic location, right in Haarlem’s historic city centre!
Step inside and you are transported back in time. Over the years, the interior has developed a character all of its own. The sunken seating area in the living room, coloured glass and unusual sightlines create a surprisingly distinctive interior. The living room has a large, tall window, while the open-plan kitchen with breakfast bar is located at the rear. A unique starting point for anyone looking to create something special while retaining the home’s character.
Upstairs are two bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate laundry room. Here too, you will find charming details, including coloured glass. The top floor has a playful layout, with a bedroom and an additional room at the front. From the landing, doors open directly onto the roof terrace: a sheltered and very private spot right in the city centre.
And then there is the location! Tucked away in the Vijfhoek, one of Haarlem’s most charming neighbourhoods. Narrow streets, characteristic buildings and inviting cafés and restaurants just around the corner. The Grote Markt, shops, restaurants, museums and railway station are all nearby. A special place for anyone who wants to live in the heart of the city while enjoying peace and privacy at home.
In short: a spacious home full of character and potential, ready to be updated and styled entirely to your own taste.
