Zandhoek 3

Full canal house with approximately 193 m² living space, devided over six levels, offering two living rooms, four to six (bed)rooms, three bathrooms and a private rear garden of 28 m².

An entrance hall with a ceiling height of over four metres, monumental fireplaces and floor-to-ceiling windows give the property a distinctive character and create a direct connection with the water. Situated on freehold land, directly on the waterfront and opposite the marina, the house occupies one of the most sought-after locations on the Western Islands.

Dating from around 1660, the national monument "De Eendracht" on the iconic Zandhoek stands out for its combination of location, scale, excellent condition and rich history.

Layout: The property is accessed via a private staircase leading to the front door, executed as a traditional Dutch stable door. The upper section can be opened for fresh air and contact with the outside, while the lower section remains closed.

The front room is a generous space with a ceiling height of over four metres, where a mezzanine, oxblood-red beam ceilings and the original wooden staircase create a remarkable sense of character and grandeur. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide abundant natural light and a direct connection with the water. This room also lends itself perfectly as a formal dining room.

Adjacent to the front room is the living room, featuring exposed beam ceilings and a monumental fireplace with authentic tiles. At the rear are the open kitchen and dining area, which open through French doors onto the sunny and secluded rear garden.

The first floor accommodates a second living room or study. Connected to the front room by means of a glass partition, it benefits fully from the natural light entering the front section of the house. This floor also includes a separate toilet.

The second floor is arranged as the principal sleeping level and offers a spacious bedroom. Between the bedroom and the bathroom is a dressing room with bespoke oak cabinetry, providing ample storage space for clothing and accessories. The bathroom features a generous washbasin, walk-in shower and bathtub. Through the original windows, there are beautiful views across the water, making this one of the most special places within the house. A separate toilet is also located on this floor.

The third floor offers two bedrooms and a bathroom. Both bedrooms feature their own mezzanine level, while the exposed roof structure creates a remarkable sense of space and adds considerable character.

Finally, a staircase leads to the fully usable lower ground floor, which forms part of the official living area. This level comprises a second kitchen, a bedroom, a bathroom with toilet and a spacious laundry room. Thanks to its own facilities, the lower ground floor lends itself perfectly to flexible use, for example as guest accommodation, storage space, an au pair suite, a home office or accommodation for older children.
