Description
Charming townhouse with double indoor garage, studio, roof terrace, and garden patio!
This well-maintained detached townhouse, built in 1890, has been stylishly renovated while preserving its charm. The property is located in a desirable residential area on a quiet street just behind the main shopping street. Given its central location, the double indoor garage with a studio and rear access is a major advantage. Firstly, you'll never have to search for parking, but there's also potential for a home business, profession, or B&B. Currently, the house has 3 bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms. If desired, it's relatively easy to add a 4rd or 5th bedroom/studio or even an apartment. The cozy living room with its beamed ceiling is open to the tasteful kitchen, which is equipped with all modern amenities. The sunny, spacious roof terrace directly off the kitchen is completely private and adds to the overall enjoyment of the home. The property is well-maintained and, thanks to full insulation, has low energy costs. Bolsward offers all necessary amenities and has quick access to the A7 motorway, providing a fast (1 hour) connection to the Randstad or Groningen.
GROUND FLOOR
A spacious entrance with large, light-colored tiles, high ceilings, tall paneled doors, electrical cupboard, staircase, coat closet, and access to the double indoor garage with utility room and guest bedroom. The guest bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a shower, toilet, vanity, and towel radiator.
FIRST FLOOR
Via the landing, you enter the living room and kitchen. This is a bright, pleasant space, thanks to the three tall windows with grid detailing on the north side and the wide terrace doors on the south side. The ceiling with exposed beams on the entire floor sets the tone for the cozy atmosphere. The sitting area is spacious and inviting, while the open kitchen is a dream for any chef. Fully equipped with modern appliances, it’s a great place to cook while family or guests relax at the long kitchen island. When the first rays of sunshine appear, the garden doors open to the terrace, where you'll find a pleasant lounge area. This terrace is used frequently, partly because it's wonderfully private. Next to the kitchen, on the terrace side, is a convenient study, which could also serve as a third bedroom (there is a water connection here). There is also a guest toilet with a sink on the landing.
SECOND FLOOR
A fixed staircase leads to the second floor, which opens into a surprisingly bright loft. This charming space is located under a slanted roof with softly painted American pine paneling. The loft features two dormer windows, plenty of natural light, and is arranged as a bedroom with an open en-suite bathroom and dressing room. The bathroom includes a shower, toilet, and vanity. The dressing room can easily be converted back into an extra bedroom. All rooms have large, luxurious storage drawers along the knee wall.
GARAGE WITH STUDIO
The spacious indoor garage (42m2) is a rare feature for a townhouse within the canals of Bolsward. The garage has an electric overhead door, accommodates two cars, and includes a large workspace/studio/utility room (20m2) at the back with heating, hot and cold running water, laundry connections, and a garden door leading to the patio and rear access. It is also possible to create a studio or apartment with its own entrance here.
CELLAR
Part of the house and garage is cellared. The entrance to the cellar is located in the patio. This cellar, once used as a stable, is now suitable for storing garden furniture and tools. The house’s plumbing is easily accessible, and the water softener is also located here.
TERRACE/GARDEN-PATIO
Both the roof terrace adjoining the kitchen on the first floor and the patio garden on the ground floor face south. The spacious roof terrace offers complete privacy, with no neighboring properties overlooking or adjacent terraces. The garden/patio (16m2) is paved, has a flower border, and rear access via a right of way, connecting to the studio of the indoor garage. The patio also has a rain and groundwater well, with a connection to the terrace above for plant irrigation. The house has an A++ Water Label (www.waterlabel.net).

BOLSWARD
The picturesque town of Bolsward is rich in history. It was granted city rights in 1455 and became a Hanseatic city due to Friesland’s dairy production. The town hall of Bolsward, one of Friesland’s finest gems, was built in 1615 and symbolizes the city’s prosperity during the seventeenth century. The town center boasts beautiful monumental buildings, canals, parks, cozy restaurants, shops, and delicatessens. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the population is a pleasant mix of locals and newcomers, the latter largely due to the proximity of the Afsluitdijk, which makes the Randstad reachable within an hour. Bolsward offers excellent amenities, including primary and secondary schools, sports, and medical facilities. From Bolsward, there are stunning boating and cycling routes through the green countryside and along the Eleven Cities of Friesland. Towns like Sneek (10min), Leeuwarden, Joure (25min), and Heerenveen (30min) are easily accessible via the nearby A7 motorway.
