Bonistraat 31 Sold

Description

Gorgeous ground floor apartment in the highly sought-after Archipel neighborhood. This hidden gem with a rich history was thoroughly renovated in 2016 whilst retaining its authentic architectural details. This delightful home, whose many exterior and interior windows suffuse the whole apartment with abundant natural light, is arranged over 2 levels with a playful layout that encompasses a total of 87m2 of interior space plus an extra 15m2 of storage in the lower level.

Archipel, with its historic character and wealth of local amenities, is a deservedly popular area with locals and expats alike. Its central location, just a 5 to 10 minute bike ride from both the seaside and the city centre, is conveniently close to excellent shops in the nearby Bankastraat and Frederikstraat, fine restaurants and cafes, international organisations, public transport, green open spaces, and major motorways – in short an ideal location.

Layout:
The entrance at street level on the corner of the Bonistraat and Celebesstraat, opens directly to the exceptionally bright, luxurious eat-in kitchen with fitted appliances. From here 4 steps ascend to a hall leading to the equally light living room, which feels especially roomy thanks to the interior window overlooking the kitchen. Stylish flourishes include lofty, decorative plaster ceilings in both rooms and a mantel in the living area. Located behind the living room is a study/2nd bathroom.

A small stairway from the hallway leads to the separate w.c. and the lower ground level, where it feels equally spacious thanks to the high ceilings, large windows, fitted cupboards, and an interior window to the kitchen. On one side at the bottom of the stairs is the bathroom, which is outfitted with a mirrored wall and marble effect tiling, a good-sized walk-in shower, and a vanity with vessel sink; on the other is the laundry area. A small hallway leads to a good-sized bedroom and an adjacent space (ca. 14m2) - once the brining tank in this former butcher’s premises – currently in use as a walk-in closet/storeroom/pantry. In addition, there is another low hallway with authentic brick arches that serves as a wine storage area.
