Detached house of approximately 243 m² on a plot of around 493 m². Freehold property. Situated in an exceptional location: right in the historic centre of Monnickendam, yet fully enclosed by greenery and tranquillity.
Tour
The residence on the Haringburgwal offers a spacious front garden with a driveway for two cars and three different entrances: one directly leading to the library/study, one opening into the conservatory, and one side entrance. The ground floor features a generous living room with space for a comfortable seating area and a gas fireplace with the aesthetic of a modern open hearth, a TV room, a bright conservatory, and a kitchen-diner with lofty ceilings, a traditional gas stove, and adjoining utility room. Adjacent lies a library/study with its own separate entrance. On this floor there are also two bathrooms — one with a jacuzzi and shower, and one with a walk-in shower and double washbasin — as well as a separate guest toilet.
The first floor contains two bedrooms overlooking the water and the historic façades, plus a separate toilet. The top floor offers a third, characterful bedroom beneath sloping rooflines.
The secluded garden, enclosed by greenery and historic façades, includes a terrace off the conservatory, flowering borders, a fountain, fruit trees, and several seating areas. Despite the central location, a sense of calm prevails here, with only the sound of birds and the occasional passing boat.
What the owners will miss
“Depending on the season, we use different spaces in the house. Most of the time we spend in the kitchen, but also often in the conservatory or in the attic room with its view over the Gouwzee. The old town is a hub for water sports and cycling tourism, so almost year-round we experience a bit of a holiday atmosphere.”
