Haarlem
Turfsteeg 2
Description
Unique loft-style living space in the heart of Haarlem’s historic city center. High ceilings (3.45 meters!), an industrial-style kitchen, and beautiful characteristic details. Spacious loft area, modern bathroom, and plenty of storage thanks to large built-in (walk-in) closets. Mixed-use zoning offers many possibilities. Located right in the center of Haarlem, within walking distance of shops, coffee bars, restaurants, cafés, museums, and public transport.
What a gem! The vibrant atmosphere of this home immediately stands out upon entering. Both the finishes and the interior design combine hard and soft materials and styles. Beautiful contrasts can be found between the robust concrete floor and the classic wooden panel doors, and between the industrial lighting and the romantic wallpaper. The impressive ceiling height enhances the loft feeling and gives the space an open and airy character. The large kitchen is an absolute eye-catcher. The large stainless steel countertop provides an abundance of workspace, while the built-in china cabinet offers ample storage space.
The location is fantastic as well! Situated on a quiet side street off the charming Kleine Houtstraat, right in the heart of Haarlem, this is the perfect place for lovers of city life. You are always close to cozy cafés, restaurants, coffee bars, shops, and museums, while still coming home to a peaceful and atmospheric environment. By bike, you can reach the dunes within 20 minutes and the beach at Bloemendaal or Zandvoort within 30 minutes. By car, the main roads towards Amsterdam, Schiphol, and The Hague are easily accessible. Haarlem Central Station is within walking distance, as are several bus stops, including the direct R-net bus connection 300 to Schiphol Airport.
