A Piece of History
Huize V.A.B. was originally built as a public lodging in 1932, with 78 rooms intended for dock workers and travelers. The building has had an interesting history since then, but has always retained its character. Today it offers a unique living experience, in which the past merges beautifully with the present.
LAYOUT

Situated on the prestigious Montelbaanstraat and with a chic entrance on the Nieuwe Ridderstraat, this home offers a light, representative entrance. You reach the impressive entrance directly via the garden. An elegant porch and hall lead to the spacious kitchen on the first floor.
This kitchen is a true dream for the culinary enthusiast, equipped with top-class Gaggenau appliances, including an induction hob with integrated extractor, a steam oven, a wine climate cabinet, and a spacious freezer and refrigerator. The cooking island is the showpiece of the room, an inviting place to come together. The kitchen offers enough space for a large dining table and is also ideal for an attractive sitting area.
The open connection with the living room emphasises the spaciousness of the home. The custom-made built-in cupboards not only offer an elegant solution for storage space, but also contribute to the refined appearance of the interior. The cosy coffee corner and the attractive fireplace create a warm, inviting atmosphere that perfectly matches the luxury of the whole. The built-in lighting accentuates the spaces in a subtle, refined way. Thanks to the direct access to the garden, outdoor living is seamlessly integrated into the home, with the garden functioning as an extension of the living room in the summer.
