In addition to the street and the neighborhood, we were immediately drawn to the wide facade with the front door in the middle, the spacious ground floor with the possibility of bedrooms three bedrooms , the garden, and the large basement. We could already picture ourselves sitting on the bench in front of the door, looking out at the boats on Stadionkade. With a growing family in mind, we created three bedrooms the ground floor. By placing an open staircase in the middle of the house, we connected the basement to the rest of the house, creating a single whole. The children loved playing in the garden and in the basement.
