Description
Stunning, monumental terraced home with countless original period details, in nearly original condition and featuring roof, floor and cavity wall insulation. This spacious family home spans 184 sqm of floorspace and is in a lovely, family-friendly area in Hilversum.
General:
The house has always been cared for meticulously, and features a renewed, insulated roof with glazed roof tiles, floor and cavity wall insulation and a modern central heating system. The home does require updating to meet contemporary demands.
This extremely expansive family home was built according to architectural plan in 1929. This is a listed municipal heritage building (Gemeentelijk Monument), designed by prolific, Hilversum-native architect J. van Laren in the Amsterdam School architectural style. The original details that are iconic for the building style have been preserved in this home, including the wall tiles in the foyer, the panel doors with stained glass, the pocket doors in the living room, tall ceilings and the windows with horizontal panes.
Location:
The home features a sunny backyard and is situated on a family-friendly, low-traffic street with an uninterrupted view of a lawn with a playground directly opposite. The property is within a few minutes’ walking distance of an elementary school and after-school care. The property is just a few minutes’ cycling distance from Seinhorst shopping center and the heathlands. Also nearby Hilversum’s bustling city center with the NS train station, shops, sidewalk cafes, the beautiful market square, cinemas and lovely restaurants. In immediate proximity to excellent (international) schools and via the A1 and A27, downtown Amsterdam, Utrecht and Amersfoort are only a 20-minute drive away.
