Personal note from the owner
“When we stepped into our house 10 years ago, we were both instantly in love. Especially because of the 1930s atmosphere and the characteristic street. After a beautiful time in which our family has expanded from two to five, we take a new step. We're going to really miss the conviviality, the annual neighbourhood dinner and nice contact with the neighbours in the Hunzestraat. Luckily we stay close, we go to a house a stone's throw away."
