Note from the Current Owners
Since 2009, we have lived in this beautiful home in Katendrecht. It’s the place where our children grew up and moved on, where we’ve created many cherished memories.
With its spacious layout across four floors, this house has always offered us the flexibility to enjoy lively family moments as well as private retreats. The natural light and ever-changing view over the water make every day special.
Now it’s time for us to move to an apartment. We leave this home with warm hearts and hope that the next residents will enjoy it just as much as we have.
