Description

The house is part of an L-shaped block of four detached houses with a wooden garden fence on the corner of Cornelis Schuytstraat and Hacquartstraat. The block was built in 1923-1924 in the Amsterdam School style to a design by G.J. Rutgers commissioned by J. Vegersteen. The two entrances on Hacquartstraat are mirror images of each other.

The windows of Hacquartstraat 32 are all modern and are located outside the shelter.

This manor house with a red brick facade consists of three floors under a flat roof with a hardstone cornice above a crenellated frieze.

First floor: one window consisting of a large central window with two smaller windows flanking it, divided by wide wooden bars with four equally sized fanlights with stained glass. Deep porch with rounded corners under a wide plastered sill, accessed by a three-step hardstone staircase with inlaid tiles.

On the left side of the porch is a large one-pane window above a hardstone mailbox. The right side of the porch is lined with downward recessed carved sandstone blocks, the upper of which depicts a bas-relief scene. To the right of the porch is a white plastered and carved stone with the number "30" carved into it.

On the second floor is a two-paned window with four stained glass transom windows. On the rising second floor, three single-light windows under a tension course with a four-light transom above a hardstone sill with ornamental brackets in the partitions.

Projecting decorative brackets are located on the right side of the façade at the height of the clerestory.
