Extraordinary living in an architectural masterpiece? This may soon become possible at Pieterskerkhof. Hidden in the heart of Utrecht’s historic city centre, at the foot of the centuries-old Pieterskerk, lies a home unlike any other: the Van Schijndel House. Architect Mart van Schijndel designed the residence for himself in 1992. The result was awarded the Rietveld Prize in 1995 and has been listed as a municipal monument since 1999 — remarkable considering its relatively young age. While the city can be felt just beyond the walls, the interior offers a world entirely of its own. Two patios bring daylight deep into the house, creating an exceptionally bright living space while maintaining complete privacy. There is no direct overlooking anywhere. This interplay creates a remarkable sense of openness and tranquillity: simplicity and refinement with an almost Japanese serenity, combined with a Mediterranean sense of colour and light — all in the very centre of Utrecht. Pieterskerkhof is one of the most atmospheric and peaceful locations in the historic city centre. The Museum Quarter, the Dom Tower, Janskerkhof and the city’s many culinary and cultural amenities are all within walking distance, yet the setting itself is surprisingly quiet. Parking is available in a covered parking space and on private grounds. Looking slightly further afield, Utrecht Central Station and its direct train connection to Schiphol Airport are also easily accessible. Schiphol can be reached in approximately 45 minutes, providing excellent connections to destinations throughout Europe and the rest of the world. This accessibility is one of the many advantages of living so centrally in the Netherlands. There is, of course, much more to tell about the architecture, the exceptional choice of materials, the possibilities of the house and its unique location. We would be delighted to share this during a personal and extensive viewing with our selling agent, Bastiaan Jonker. Let us take a closer look at the remarkable layout. The entrance to this exceptional residence is situated on the car-free Pieterskerkhof and is reached via a gated courtyard, where the property also benefits from its own covered parking space — a rare luxury in the heart of the city. Once inside, an impressive living space unfolds, characterised by high ceilings and two patios that provide natural daylight throughout the day and create a seamless connection between inside and outside. The combination of transparent and frosted glass, together with fully opening façades, creates an ideal balance between privacy and light. The layout of the house is highly flexible. In addition to the central living area, there is a library with fireplace, a study or workspace, and a storage room that can also be accessed from outside. At the front of the house is the sleek, minimalist kitchen, with access to a utility room and guest lavatory. Also situated on the ground floor are a bathroom and an extensive wellness area, including a sauna and steam room. The sculptural staircase forms the architectural heart of the house and leads to the gallery on the first floor, overlooking the main living space. Here you will find the principal bedroom and a second bedroom or study, both with direct access to the bathroom. In short, if you are looking for a residence with exceptional architectural character, unlike anything else on the market, we would be delighted to introduce you to Pieterskerkhof 8. A private and extensive viewing can easily be arranged. Interested in this property? We recommend engaging your own NVM purchasing agent. An NVM purchasing agent represents your interests and can save you time, money and concerns throughout the purchase process. Details of NVM purchasing agents in Utrecht can be found on Funda.

A monumental townhouse in one of the city’s most sought-after locations Living on the Rapenburg means living in the very heart of Leiden, in a place where history, architecture and vibrant city life come together in a truly special way. Rapenburg 16 is the kind of house that cannot simply be captured in square metres. Behind its characteristic façade lies an exceptionally spacious city residence arranged over several floors, with generous rooms, no fewer than eight bedrooms, a cellar and a deep rear garden. The layout immediately reveals just how many possibilities this property offers. On the ground floor, several representative rooms are arranged both in sequence and around the central hallway. Two sitting rooms and a separate dining room provide ample space for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. To the rear is the kitchen, with direct access to the garden, creating a natural transition from the historic townhouse to the surprisingly spacious outdoor area. And that garden is truly exceptional for a home in central Leiden. The plot extends far to the rear and offers a variety of terraces, planted borders and green areas. Immediately behind the house is a generous outdoor space with a conservatory, while further back the garden becomes increasingly green and secluded. At the end of the garden there is sufficient space for a large lawn. The existing storage areas add a practical dimension. A garden of this size, right in the historic city centre, gives the property a quality that is rarely available. The upper floors further emphasise the grandeur of the house. The first floor comprises four generously proportioned bedrooms, complemented by a fifth bedroom in the rear extension. These rooms naturally lend themselves to use as bedrooms, but could equally well serve as a library, home office, guest accommodation or comfortable suite. The generous width of the house and the many windows create a wonderful sense of space and light. On the second floor are a further four spacious rooms, together with a toilet, landing and built-in storage. Here too, the flexibility is considerable. For a large family there is an exceptional amount of sleeping accommodation, while working from home, hosting guests and pursuing hobbies can each be given their own dedicated space. Above this is a large attic floor. Beneath the roof is an impressive open area with storage spaces and a ridge height of approximately 2.08 metres. This level provides extensive storage capacity and, subject to the relevant possibilities and permissions, offers interesting potential for further use. The space continues below the house as well. The cellar extends for more than five metres and provides valuable additional space for storage, a wine collection or other practical purposes. A home for the long term What truly sets Rapenburg 16 apart is the combination of scale and versatility. This is a house in which a family can live generously without different functions competing for space. Entertaining, working, studying, hosting guests and relaxing can all have their own place. At the same time, the existing layout provides ample opportunity to reinterpret the house and adapt it to a contemporary way of living. The location completes the picture. The Rapenburg is one of Leiden’s most distinctive and highly regarded canals. The historic city centre, university buildings, museums, shops, restaurants and cafés are all within easy reach. Here, you live at the heart of the city, surrounded by centuries of Leiden history, while the rear of the property offers an unexpected sense of space, greenery and privacy. Rapenburg 16 is therefore far from an ordinary townhouse. It is a monumental city residence with the proportions, outdoor space and flexibility to become an exceptional family home. A property for those seeking not merely a house, but a place with character, history and a future.
