Exceptionally wide period home spanning two floors with enchanting south-facing garden in coveted Willemsparkbuurt.
Located in the sought-after Valeriusstraat, this charming home offers high ceilings (3.30 m on the living floor), a delightful sunroom, and spacious, light-filled bedrooms on the first floor. The total living area is approximately 166 m², including a practical basement of about 22 m². The property is in excellent condition, retaining its beautiful original details, and is largely fitted with double glazing. Freehold land.
LOCATION
The house is situated in the quiet part of the Valeriusstraat, beyond the Hendrik Jacobszstraat — a peaceful, almost village-like corner of Oud-Zuid with little traffic and a relaxed atmosphere. Within walking distance you’ll find the Vondelpark, the Cornelis Schuytstraat, and numerous high-quality shops and restaurants. A perfect location for those who appreciate the charm of Oud-Zuid, but prefer to live just outside the hustle and bustle. The area offers a wide range of schools, specialty shops, cafés, and restaurants, and is easily accessible by bicycle, tram, or car.
LAYOUT
The private entrance on the ground floor opens into a vestibule and a spacious hallway. Here, the generous width of the house immediately stands out, along with the character created by high ceilings, stained-glass windows, and original woodwork, creating an immediate sense of grandeur and warmth
At the front is a bright living room with two large windows; at the rear, a charming sunroom with French doors leading into the garden. The spacious kitchen, overlooking the greenery, is connected to the dining area and also opens onto the garden. Facing south, the garden measures approximately 7.25 meters deep and 6.85 meters wide, featuring both a sun-drenched terrace and a small lawn, perfect for morning coffee or evening gatherings. The surrounding gardens provide pleasant greenery, privacy, and shelter.
The first floor exudes just as much character. With a ceiling height of around 3.14 meters and large windows with stained-glass upper panes at the front and rear, the rooms are filled with natural light. Wooden floors, smooth walls and ceilings, and two decorative fireplaces complete the refined look. There are three generously sized bedrooms, some with built-in wardrobes, and a spacious bathroom with bathtub, walk-in shower, double washbasin, and second toilet.
The basement provides ample storage space and includes connections for a washing machine and dryer, as well as the central heating system (Intergas, 2024).
