Delft, Voorstraat 19
Sold

Along the canal lies the Patrician residence 'De 3 Cimbellen' featuring a spacious, private garden.

This unique and generously sized monumental house (434 m² living space) is located right in the centre on one of the most beautiful canals in Delft. It is a fine family home perfect for enjoying life, but also a house with all the allure for entertaining in style.

The house has a rich history with plenty of illustrious former residents. A whole host of exquisite details have been preserved in the house. In the (by city standards) very large garden, you will experience an oasis of calm.

The university city of Delft is famous the world over, in part thanks to its ties with Johannes Vermeer, Delftware and the Royal Family. Johannes Vermeer was a frequent guest in the residence at Voorstraat 19. The property is practically next to the famous Oude Kerk (Old Church), also called Oude Jan (Old John) or Scheve Jan (Crooked John). Charming outdoor cafés and shops are just a stone's throw away. All conceivable amenities are close to hand.

The front of the house is impressive due to the extra-wide gabled façade with a richly decorated cornice five window sections wide. On the right side of the façade is the authentic front door with a beautifully carved Louis XIV frame that decorates the upper window.

You then enter the house through the spacious portal adjoining the long corridor. The arches, marble floor, high ceilings with ornamentation and impressive sculptural work are veritable eye-catchers. From the hallway, you reach the central hall, the garden room, the kitchen, the conservatory, the study and the toilet with a marble washbasin. You can then access the en suite room from the conservatory and the study.

In the corridor, you'll find the stairs leading to the landing on the 1^st floor. This floor also impresses with its stunning ceiling height. From here, you can reach the master bedroom, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, the utility closet and - through the built-in staircase - the 2^nd floor.

The built-in staircase takes you to the 2^nd floor. This large, open space is over 5 metres in height and has been used as a studio. The laundry and ironing room is also located here. This floor can be divided up as you see fit.

The basement floor has windows and beautiful vaulted ceilings.

The walled-off and architecturally landscaped garden with a variety of wonderful trees is a sight to behold! Unique in its size in the midst of the city: over 30 metres long and more than 15 metres wide.
