Beschrijving
This property presents a well maintained semi detached family home situated on a quiet street in the village of Dirkshorn. The residence was built in 1986 and has been extensively modernised in recent years. The total plot measures 160 square metres while the living area covers 120 square metres. An additional 16 square metres of internal space is used for utility rooms and the garage area. The overall volume of the building is 468 cubic metres.
On arrival the property benefits from a private driveway that leads to a single stone garage. The garage is integrated with the main house and offers space for one vehicle as well as a separate work area that includes a kitchen block and a skylight. This configuration makes the garage suitable for hobby projects, motorbike storage or a small business operation.
Entering the home through the front door you are welcomed by a hallway that contains the distribution board, a small toilet and the staircase to the upper levels. To the left of the hallway the living room opens with large windows on both the front and rear façades. The generous glazing provides abundant natural light throughout the day and creates a feeling of spaciousness. The floor is finished with PVC and is equipped with underfloor heating, adding a comfortable touch for colder months. The walls are neatly finished and the overall appearance is tidy and contemporary.
Adjacent to the living room is the open plan kitchen and dining area. The kitchen has been upgraded with a modern layout that includes a central island, an induction cooktop with built‑in extraction, and a Quooker boiling water system. High quality cabinetry and integrated appliances give the kitchen a sleek appearance. From the kitchen a set of doors leads directly into a glass enclosed summer room. The summer room overlooks the rear garden and provides a seamless indoor‑outdoor connection that is ideal for casual dining or relaxing while observing the garden.
The rear garden occupies the remaining portion of the 160 square metre plot. It is fenced for privacy and includes a lawn area as well as space for planting. The garden is accessible both from the summer room and from a side path that leads past the garage. The layout offers a flexible environment for gardening, outdoor recreation or entertaining guests.
Going upstairs, the first floor is reached via a fixed staircase. At the top of the stairs a landing gives access to three well proportioned bedrooms. Each bedroom benefits from the same quality of windows and finishes as the ground floor. The bathroom is located on this level and is finished to a high standard. It contains a bathtub, a separate shower, a second toilet and a wash basin. The bathroom also features underfloor heating and benefits from a dormer window that adds height and natural light.
A second set of stairs continues to the top floor. This level is accessed through a small landing that includes a laundry room equipped with the necessary plumbing connections. Beyond the laundry, a fourth bedroom is found. The room is larger than the others on the lower floor and benefits from a second dormer window that expands the usable floor area and introduces additional daylight.
The property includes several energy and comfort features. New plastic framed windows have been installed, improving insulation and reducing maintenance. The roof and walls have been insulated, contributing to a better thermal performance. The heating system consists of a Vaillant C5 gas boiler installed in 2012, which supplies hot water to both the central heating system and the domestic hot water taps. Partial underfloor heating is present in the living areas and in the bathroom, enhancing comfort.
Eight photovoltaic panels are mounted on the roof, providing renewable electricity generation for the household. The home is connected to mechanical ventilation, ensuring a constant supply of fresh air while retaining heat. Television cable services are also available throughout the property.
The location of the house offers a balance between rural tranquility and easy access to larger towns. Dirkshorn is a well regarded village within the municipality of Schagen. It is known for a calm residential environment, green surroundings and convenient amenities. Daily shopping needs can be met in the nearby village centre. The towns of Alkmaar and Schagen are both within a short driving distance, providing additional retail, cultural and transport options. The surrounding area features a network of walking and cycling routes, a golf course and several nature reserves, making it attractive for outdoor enthusiasts.
In summary the home offers a combination of spacious interior living areas, modern kitchen facilities, a bright summer room, a private garden, a detached garage with work space, and a range of energy efficiency measures. The recent renovations, new windows and updated heating system make the property ready for immediate occupation. The layout across three levels provides ample separation between public and private spaces, while the presence of four bedrooms makes the home suitable for a growing family or for use as a multigenerational residence. The overall presentation is tidy, functional and well suited to buyers seeking a move‑in ready family home in a peaceful village with good transport connections to larger urban centres.
