Description

Introduction

This mansion is part of a row of late-19th-century mansions in eclectic style, which together form part of the closed facade wall laid out in the seventeen seventies of the 19th century on the razed city walls. The rear sides of the dwellings border on the city moat and the grounds of the villa Rams Woerthe. The properties comprise two storeys on a basement, separated by string courses and are covered by a hipped roof. The facades have arched window openings and are terminated by a cornice. Kornputsingel 28 forms one entity with the likewise protected property Kornputsingel 26.

Description

Four (no. 26) and three (no. 28) axis-wide double dwelling under one roof with tile-covered truncated hipped roof with plastered plinth, original doors and on the ground floor arched windows with profile mouldings and hood moulding. On the upper storey likewise arched windows with a flat frame. No. 28 has two doors with fanlight beneath a balcony on pierced consoles.

Of the original interior of no. 28, following a renovation dating from 1957, only a leaded glass window by Willem Bogtman remains, which originates from the back door, but is now framed.

Valuation

The property forms part of an intact late-19th-century facade wall with properties in eclectic style. These constitute, as buildings on the former city walls and in conjunction with the gardens and buildings of the villa Rams Woerthe, a highly valuable urban ensemble and consequently have great urban planning and ensemble value; the integrity and stylistic diversity make them architecturally and historically significant.
