Netherlands! Cozy Townhouse Circa 1890 Next to Canal in Historic Town of Maassluis, Netherlands – €225,000

Good Monday morning! Netherlands Week! A cozy canalside townhouse circa 1890 in the historic town of Maassluis!

This cozy little home is so charming! It seems like the perfect Monday morning property to me. This week I will dive into Dutch properties! The architecture is totally stunning! The country is so small that it only takes about 2.5 hours drive to get from one end of the Netherlands to the other. In between are so many pretty villages and verdant green farmland!
