PLEIN EENDRAGT 19AB | DE PLANTAGE – SCHIEDAM (ROTTERDAM AREA)

Living in pure grandeur: historic elegance, modern comfort, a private jetty on the water, and a solid foundation.

Situated on an idyllic, historic square — directly opposite the oldest city park in the Netherlands, "De Plantage" — lies this magnificent, four-story townhouse spanning approximately 320 m². This unique property seamlessly combines the historic charm of 1907 with today's luxury living comfort (Energy Label C). Featuring a deep backyard that directly borders the Buitenhaven, you will enjoy the luxury of a private mooring jetty. From your own terrace, you can step straight into your boat to explore the historic canals of Schiedam or sail out onto the Nieuwe Waterweg.

Almost all of the characteristic original details have been meticulously restored with great care and craftsmanship. This restoration formed the foundation for a tasteful and high-value modernization. The result is a warm, turn-key residence featuring oak flooring (partially herringbone), soaring ceilings up to 3.30 meters, and cozy wood-burning stoves.

Structural Status and Foundation
The property offers a very reassuring structural base. The building is constructed on a solid concrete slab foundation. A recently completed independent structural Quick Scan (July 2026) confirms the absolute stability of the construction with a "Green Box" status, indicating a very low risk profile.

Perfect Location for Professionals
While nestled in an oasis of green and tranquility, the townhouse is strategically located. The A20 and A4 motorways are just around the corner. Within a few minutes' walk, you can reach the NS train station and metro, offering direct and rapid connections to Rotterdam City Center (within 15 minutes), Delft, The Hague, and Schiphol Airport, as well as the beach at Hoek van Holland.

LAYOUT

Ground Floor (Garden Level & Guest Suite):
A stylish entrance leads through the vestibule and hallway, both featuring the original, restored granito flooring. Here you will find a deep utility/meter cupboard housing the electrical installations — the fuse boxes throughout the house were completely renewed in June 2026 — and a guest restroom. (A second, fully intact vestibule with a separate staircase provides independent access to the upper floors — ideal for guests or a live-in au pair).
At the rear lies the spacious, light-filled garden room (approx. 27 m²) with a door opening to the deep backyard and the fantastic private jetty on the water. The front room (approx. 17,5 m²) facing the square features a complete, classically designed pantry/kitchenette setup equipped with a 4-burner gas stove, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and exhaust hood.

The spacious dine-in kitchen at the rear (approx. 30 m²) features a modern, three-piece layout with all desirable built-in appliances. The beautiful, arched windows offer a lovely view over the back garden and the water of the Buitenhaven.
