Spaarndam Gem. Haarlem
IJdijk 17
Description
A distinctive listed building with two bedrooms, a conservatory, a mezzanine and a terrace right on the waterfront. With no less than 149 m² of usable floor space! Here, the property’s historic character and recent renovations come together, creating a peaceful and atmospheric whole. And all this in the heart of the old part of Spaarndam: a picturesque, young and quiet village with a relaxed atmosphere, right on the banks of the Mooie Nel!
The property consists of two originally separate houses that have been merged into a single unit. The ground floor was almost entirely refurbished in 2025. A poured concrete floor has been fitted, with underfloor heating in the hall. In addition, a conservatory has been created where you can enjoy sitting all year round. The existing beams have been retained and left exposed, ensuring that the property’s original character remains very much in evidence. This level also houses the master bedroom with a spacious en-suite bathroom and a second bedroom. At the rear, the property borders almost directly on the water. From the garden, you can access the waterside terrace, which offers unobstructed views across the Mooie Nel. The terrace is situated right next to the lock, so there is always something going on. The living area was completely refurbished in 2019 and blends beautifully with the rest of the house in terms of style. The living room and kitchen-diner are interconnected and are playfully separated by a split-level gas fireplace, which is visible from both sides. The kitchen-diner features, amongst other things, a Boretti gas hob, a wine climate cabinet and a quartzite worktop from Brazil with crystal inlays. The glass partition, various skylights and exposed beams provide plenty of light and enhance the character of the property. Above the living room is a beautiful mezzanine, which is currently used as an office and play area. A playful passageway leads from the living area to the utility room on the ground floor.
Due to the lower ceiling height, the ground floor cannot be fully included in the living area of 122 m². A portion of 27 m² is therefore classified as ‘other indoor space’. This brings the total usable area to 149 m².
The location is superb! In the immediate vicinity you’ll find, amongst other things, an AH supermarket, various restaurants, plenty of sports facilities (including hockey, football and tennis), a marina, primary schools, etc. Furthermore, Spaarndam borders the Spaarnwoude recreational area, offering a wide range of leisure and entertainment options (golf, indoor ski centre, riding school, etc.). The centre of Haarlem is within cycling distance, as are the dunes and the beach. Amsterdam is just a 20-minute drive away, and you can reach Schiphol Airport in 24 minutes.
