Korte Dijk 5RD

Living on the banks of the Spaarne with a view that never gets boring!

A fully modernised flat on the top floor with a luxury kitchen-diner, period features and a truly fantastic unobstructed view over the Spaarne.

This is one of those places where, as soon as you walk in, you can’t help but head straight for the window. Because what a view! From the bay window, you have an unobstructed view across the Spaarne, with the water, the boats and the Haarlemse city centre providing the backdrop to your day. A view that changes with every moment of the day and every season – and one you never really tire of.

The property has been completely refurbished and modernised and now combines the character of the original building with a calm, contemporary feel. The attractive herringbone flooring, the light colour scheme and the original wooden beams lend the living area a great deal of character.
The living room is at the front of the house and is wonderfully light thanks to the large windows. The characteristic bay window is undoubtedly the favourite spot in the house. A cup of coffee, a good book and, whilst you’re at it, watching everything that’s going on on and around the Spaarne. You really don’t need much more than that.
The living room flows into the spacious kitchen-diner, which was completely refurbished after the purchase. A sleek, luxurious kitchen was chosen, featuring plenty of cupboard space, various built-in appliances and a generous kitchen island. A wonderful place to enjoy cooking at length.
As the kitchen, dining area and living room flow seamlessly into one another, a single, large living space has been created. Modern and comfortable, yet—thanks to the exposed beams and the characteristic façade—it still retains the atmosphere befitting a home in this location.
On the second floor there are two bedrooms and the fully modernised bathroom.
The master bedroom is at the front of the house. And here, too, you’re treated to that stunning view over the Spaarne as a bonus. Waking up and looking out from your home over the water and the historic town: it never ceases to be special.

The location completes the picture. Here, you’ll be living on the edge of the historic city centre, with the city centre, restaurants, outdoor cafés, shops, cultural attractions and the railway station all within walking distance. At the same time, this waterside spot feels surprisingly spacious.
The River Spaarne flows right outside the front door, and the historic town lies on the opposite bank. From the house, you can look out towards the distinctive Haarlemse skyline, and there’s always something to see on the water – from pleasure craft on summer’s days to the ever-changing colours of the trees along the quayside.
