Spacious and exceptionally charming double ground-floor residence of approximately 171 m² (GFA 247 m²), featuring a deep and sunny garden of around 62 m² and a generous basement of 72 m². This classic family home is distinguished by an abundance of authentic details, impressive high ornamental ceilings, and a spacious living floor with a large conservatory. The property offers four full-sized bedrooms and a stylish, modern bathroom. Situated on freehold land in the highly sought-after and prestigious Oud-Zuid, this home provides an exceptional living experience.
Striking features include the many original elements that have been carefully preserved throughout the property, such as stained glass windows, en-suite doors, a beautiful bay window, classic panel doors, ornate ceilings, original fireplaces, and an impressive marble entrance vestibule with original tiled flooring. The property spans two generous residential floors and also includes a spacious basement with natural light. If desired, the basement could be further developed into a full-fledged lower ground floor, creating a three-level residence.
The homeowners’ association (VvE) “Johannes Verhulststraat 189” consists of two members and is self-managed. Costs are paid on an ad hoc basis and proportionally shared.
LAYOUT
Through the private entrance with a marble vestibule, a beautifully etched glass door leads into the spacious hallway with matching marble flooring. From here, all rooms are accessible, as well as the basement, a separate toilet, and the staircase to the first floor.
The impressive living room consists of three connected spaces: an inviting sitting room at the front, a spacious dining room in the middle, and a stunning conservatory at the rear. The sitting room features high windows, a fireplace, and en-suite doors leading to the dining room, which includes two large built-in cabinets. The dining room also boasts a deep fireplace and en-suite doors to the adjacent conservatory.
The conservatory features antique tiled flooring that flows seamlessly into the adjoining kitchen, which is also accessible from the hallway. French doors from the conservatory lead to the lower-level garden of approximately 62 m². The south-facing garden is largely paved with a generous green border and offers a good level of privacy due to its greenery.
The spacious kitchen, located next to the conservatory, has an L-shaped layout and is fitted with handleless wooden cabinets and drawers combined with a natural stone countertop. It is equipped with various built-in appliances. A pleasant detail is the window overlooking the private garden.
With the exception of the hallway, kitchen, and conservatory, the living floor features high-quality Tapis parquet flooring with a black border.
Via a wooden staircase with a red runner, you reach the sleeping floor. The spacious landing, with a separate toilet, provides access to all rooms.
This floor includes four well-sized bedrooms. The master bedroom is located at the front and features a beautiful bay window. The second spacious bedroom is situated at the rear and has sliding doors opening to the adjoining conservatory, as well as a full-height, wall-to-wall built-in wardrobe. The adjacent bedroom is also generously sized and suitable as a full bedroom. The fourth bedroom, located at the front, is ideal as a nursery or home office.
The centrally located bathroom on this floor is fully finished in marble and is notably spacious. It includes a bathtub, a ceiling-mounted rain shower with a hand shower, a white vanity unit with a sand-colored natural stone top, and a wall-mounted toilet.
The entire sleeping floor is finished with high-quality herringbone parquet flooring.
The basement is accessible from the central hall on the ground floor. It consists of two good-sized rooms, both with natural daylight. Additionally, there is a laundry room equipped with a sink and shower.

NEN CLAUSE
The usable floor area has been calculated in accordance with the industry-standard NEN 2580 norm. The area may therefore differ from comparable properties and/or older references, mainly due to this (new) calculation method. The buyer declares to be sufficiently informed about this standard. The seller and their agent make every effort to calculate the correct surface area and volume based on their own measurements and to support this as much as possible by providing floor plans with dimensions. Should the measurements unexpectedly not fully comply with the standard, this will be accepted by the buyer. The buyer has been given sufficient opportunity to verify the measurements themselves or have them verified. Differences in the stated size or dimensions do not give either party any right, including adjustment of the purchase price. The seller and their agent accept no liability in this regard.
