Description

Magnificent, elegant and yet still a warm and cozy family home with garden in the center of Haarlem! This furnished 5 bedroom, 2 bathroom, town house is located in the sought after Koninginnebuurt (Queens neighbourhood). The city woods (Haarlemmerhout) and parks are just a few minutes’ walk away and some of the best schools in Haarlem (including the various locations of the International Schools in Haarlem) – all within a 10 minutes cycle. One of the best features of the Koninginnebuurt are the quiet, family friendly streets and squares which makes it hard to believe you are just a few minutes’ walk from the center of town, the main roads into and out of Haarlem. The main bus terminus (Tempeliersstraat) offers connections, via the fast buses to various locations in Amsterdam (every 4 minutes in the rush hour), the short distance to Haarlem and Heemstede train station added to the close proximity to the main roads make the commute to Amsterdam, Schiphol, Schiphol-Rijk, The Hague and Rotterdam very convenient. The beautiful beaches of Bloemendaal and Zandvoort are easily accessible by bike (25 minutes).

This lovely property offers 4 ample bedrooms, plus an office / baby room, traditional ‘suite’ sliding doors separate the modern family kitchen/dining room from the cosy living room to the front of the house and the benefit of a cellar with space and electric points for various appliances.
