Koorstraat 49–51 – A Property with Character, History and a Future in the Heart of Alkmaar
Located on one of the most charming streets in the historic city centre of Alkmaar, you will find this distinctive and versatile property at Koorstraat 49–51. An address with a story. For three generations, a hair salon has been operated here with craftsmanship and dedication—a place where local residents and loyal customers have been meeting for decades.
This characterful city property offers far more than just a familiar retail space. Behind the authentic façade lies an exceptional combination of functions, making the property attractive to both entrepreneurs and private users.
On the ground floor is the hair salon/practice space, highly visible and perfectly situated for a craft-based business, professional practice or small-scale retail.
The basement provides practical additional space, ideal for storage, archives or even a creative use.
On the upper floors is a maisonette apartment, allowing living and working at one address—a rare and highly sought-after combination in the city centre.
In addition, there is extra practice or workspace, suitable for example as a studio, office or treatment room.
This is not a standard property, but a place with soul. An object that invites you to continue its rich history while fully utilizing it according to your own wishes and vision.
