Hidden House / LMNL office

Passing down one of the oldest streets in Rotterdam Kralingen one finds the Hidden House (and garden) located 35 meters down a narrow gravel path, nestled in the lush gardens of the surrounding villas. Built between 1820 and 1840 as the gardener’s quarters of the former Slot Honingen, the dilapidated row house was in need of full renovation and upgrading to modern standards when purchased in 2016. Problems such as rising damp, rotten floor beams, and sagging windows were all addressed using sustainable materials and careful attention to detail.
