For rent: Flat Krententuin 10 in Hoorn

Description

Living in a monument: Oostereiland, Krententuin 10, Hoorn.

There are apartments. There are special apartments. And then there is this.
A former prison building on the Oostereiland; the cultural island of Hoorn, right on the Markermeer, which has been transformed into a living space that has no equal in North Holland. History, architecture, and contemporary living comfort come together here in a way you don't expect and won't forget.
This is not a home to live in. This is a home to talk about.

The Oostereiland - a place with a soul
The Oostereiland is Hoorn at its most special. An island in the historic inner harbor, surrounded by water, connected to the city via a bridge, and yet a world apart. Here, monumental buildings stand next to modern art institutions, and you look out over the Markermeer on one side while seeing the historic roofs of the Hoorn city center on the other.

The Krententuin is located in the heart of this island. Within walking distance, you will find the coziest terraces and restaurants of Hoorn, the weekly market on the Roode Steen, and all daily amenities of the city center. The Hoorn train station is within cycling distance and connects you directly to Amsterdam, approximately 45 minutes away, and the rest of the Netherlands.

For international professionals working in West-Friesland, at companies like Action, Agrifirm, or other multinationals in the region, this is a home base that will be remembered. You live in a place where your guests will stare when they walk in, and you will come home with pleasure every day.

The living room - height, light, and life
The living room of this apartment has a ceiling height that you won't find in any new-build apartment. Huge windows with black steel frames let the daylight stream in from early morning until the last rays of the sun.
Original brick walls, high black steel windows, industrial pendant lamps made of black metal. A solid wooden dining table for eight people stands there as a matter of course. The lounge sofa invites you. The open kitchen connects seamlessly.

The kitchen - sleek, dark, and complete
The open kitchen is finished in high-gloss black with a black marble countertop. All necessary equipment is present. The kitchen is directly adjacent to the dining room, and cooking here always means being part of the conversation at the table.

The bedroom & loft - a design in itself
Via a floating wooden staircase, you reach the loft where the bedroom overlooks everything. The bed rests on a platform of raw tree trunks measuring 2 by 2 meters. There is still enough room to move comfortably and dive into your bed.

The walk-in closet - dressing room as a statement
Behind a sliding door of steel and glass, in a wall of original bricks, is the walk-in closet. A space with solid wooden closet spaces from floor to ceiling, an industrial library ladder to reach the highest spots, and a pendant lamp as a sculpture on the ceiling.

The bathroom - craftsmanship and detail
The bathroom is executed with the care of a design studio. White subway tiles in a herringbone pattern, an antique wooden vanity unit with a porcelain countertop sink, black faucets, a cast-iron radiator, and gold wall lamps on either side of a black-rimmed mirror. The walk-in shower is shielded by a steel frame with ribbed glass. Every detail and material has been chosen consciously. This is not a functional space; this is a place where you take a moment after a long day at work.

The balcony - your place above the city
The apartment has its own balcony with a view of the courtyard of the historic complex, surrounded by the brick facades of the former prison. A place for morning coffee, the afternoon sun, or an evening drink while the city around you falls silent.
