Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Comfortable modern and spacious townhouse (125 sq. meter) in a quiet neighborhood and close, within walking distance, to the old city centre.

The house has three floors and much privacy (no direct neighbors).
The living room, the kitchen and a toilet are on the ground floor. On the first floor we have two double bedrooms (beds: 180x200 (box-spring) and 150x200) and a bathroom with second toilet. On the second floor we have a study and a laundry space. All the rooms have central heating and wooden floors (tiles in bathroom and kitchen). Outside is a small garden/patio. Next to the house is a shed with three bicycles.

Groningen has just over 235.000 inhabitants and is a cultural and economic centre for the north of the Netherlands. It has one of the largest universities of the Netherlands with over 50.000 students.
There are two city-parks within walking distance.

The coast is a one-hour drive away and a visit to one of the inhabited islands (Schiermonnikoog) just off the coast, makes a very attractive day-trip.
Amsterdam is a two-hour drive by car or train.
