Translated listing description:

"Award-winning architecture, attractive location and timeless craftsmanship in the heart of Nykøbing!

Are you looking for a home with soul and a history that can both be seen and felt? Then this unique townhouse from 1928 can meet your requirements for a new home.

No. 17 in M. C. Holms Gade is built according to the proud craftsmanship traditions of the time in a master bricklayer's quality, which can be seen in the well-thought-out details and the unique charm that characterizes the home. Do you like high original details, such as panel doors, wooden floors, high skirting boards and other fine details?

Bonus info - the house's architectural value and beautiful appearance were officially recognized in 1994 when it received the Morsø Municipality's preservation prize. A fun and beautiful anecdote that you, as the owner, can highlight positively.

The home

The house is unconventionally arranged with three levels - 100 m2 of living space + 40 m2 of basement. Since the living area is higher than the road level due to the basement, you get a view of the street from the ground floor from a perspective that of course means that from the square, it is not possible to look directly into the living rooms.

Interior

The ground floor has an entrance hall, where you reach a landing with a guest toilet via a few steps. 2 beautiful living rooms en suite with beautiful original hidden sliding doors. Cozy kitchen, from which there is access to a back passage, which leads directly out to what the owner has designed as "the best courtyard in town".

On the 1st floor is a landing, two good bedrooms and a bathroom.

The basement is extremely functional and offers very good space for both a workshop, laundry room and storage - ideal for those who need extra square meters for hobby projects.

Courtyard

The courtyard is an undisturbed and very private atmospheric oasis, a sunny breathing space with a covered terrace. There is room for both privacy and hobby plants. The plot is a total of 146 m2 and is surrounded by a wall.

Location

The location doesn't get any better - you live a few steps and minutes from Denmark's coziest pedestrian street, where many exciting activities take place - Culture Meeting, Shellfish Festival, etc.. Short distance to the harbor, park and cultural life. And when summer hits, the waves of the Limfjord out at Østerstrand are just a short walk away, and many people flock to swim and hang out.
