Description
Characterful corner house with four bedrooms, a conservatory, and a west-facing, lush green garden, delightful living nestled between the dunes and the village in Bentveld.
Located on the leafy, quiet Parnassialaan in the sought-after village of Bentveld, this charming corner house dates back to 1955. Offering approximately 153 m² of living space, a bright garden room, a ground-floor bedroom with an en-suite shower, and a deep, verdant garden surrounding the property, this home presents a rare opportunity for those seeking space, tranquility, and nature, all while keeping Haarlem, the beach, and Amsterdam within easy reach.
The surroundings: living in a green setting, on the edge of the dunes
Bentveld is a small, exclusive village of about a thousand residents, situated on the border of Zandvoort and Aerdenhout and surrounded on three sides by a dune landscape. You can step straight into the woods from your doorstep: the ‘Het Naaldenveld’ forest and the Amsterdam Water Supply Dunes (Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen) are just around the corner, and the Kraansvlak area of ??the South Kennemerland National Park has been home to a herd of European bison (wisent) since 2007. Within a ten-minute bike ride, you can find yourself with your feet in the sand on Zandvoort beach, or arrive at the Heemstede-Aerdenhout railway station. Bus 80 runs from Westerduinweg to the center of Haarlem (approximately 14 minutes) and continues on to Amsterdam. Shops, schools (including the Aerdenhout-Bentveld school association), and various sports clubs—offering golf, tennis, hockey (at the Rood-Wit club), and horseback riding, are all located nearby. By car, you can reach Amsterdam and Schiphol Airport in about half an hour.
Ground floor: You reach the entrance via the front garden and a private driveway, which easily accommodates a large car. The hallway, featuring a tiled floor, provides access to the guest toilet, the utility/meter cupboard, and the staircase to the upper floor. The L-shaped living room (approximately 45 m²) serves as the heart of the home; it boasts a beautiful oak parquet floor, laid in a block pattern with a decorative border, that has recently been fully re-oiled. The space is enhanced by an inviting gas fireplace, a ceiling ornament, and large windows at both the front and rear. The dining area, located on the garden side, receives additional natural light through a skylight and recessed spotlights.
The semi-open kitchen connects to the living room via a breakfast bar and is equipped with a gas cooktop, a stainless steel extractor hood, a built-in combination oven, and a refrigerator/freezer.
From the living room, you step into the conservatory, a delightful garden room featuring a wooden ceiling, a large skylight, floor-to-ceiling glass, and French doors opening onto the garden. It offers the feeling of being outdoors all year round.
A notable feature is the spacious bedroom (approximately 17 m²) located on the side of the house (formerly a garage). It includes a private shower room, a built-in closet with connections for a washing machine and dryer, and its own external door leading to the garden. This space is ideal as a guest suite, a home office, or, for example, accommodation for an au pair.
First floor: The landing provides access to three bedrooms. The primary bedroom at the rear (approximately 17 m²) features a door opening onto a balcony with a view over the garden, and it connects to an en-suite bathroom equipped with a bathtub, a separate shower, a double vanity, and a toilet. The second bedroom at the front (approximately 12 m²) features a large window offering a view of the greenery, along with a spacious built-in wardrobe. The third bedroom is perfectly suited as a children’s room or home office.
Loft: A retractable loft ladder provides access to the attic space, which offers additional storage and houses the central heating system.
Garden and storage
The property is situated on a corner plot with a garden surrounding the house. The southwest-facing back garden is a green oasis, complete with a lawn, lush borders, a natural stone patio, and a high degree of privacy, thanks to mature trees and plantings. At the rear, there is a detached storage shed measuring approximately 15 m².
Parking is available on-site in the private driveway.
