Spacious family home with basement apartment, garden and carport in Aalsmeer
Key Features
Description
Located on 1e J.C. Mensinglaan in the popular residential area of Aalsmeer Zuid, this spacious semi-detached family home offers an exceptional amount of living space spread across three floors, making it an ideal choice for families seeking room to grow. The property features four bedrooms, a fully finished basement level, a generously sized garden oriented towards the southeast, and parking on private grounds beneath a carport.
The ground floor begins with an entrance hall that provides access to the guest toilet with a hand basin, the staircase leading to the first floor, the basement level, and the main living area. The living room is designed as a through room, benefiting from large windows on both sides as well as side windows, which together create a bright and inviting atmosphere throughout the day. The room offers ample space for a comfortable seating arrangement as well as a large dining table, and it is equipped with air conditioning for year round comfort. A door from the living room opens onto the terrace, extending the living space outdoors during the warmer months.
The kitchen is finished in a modern style, combining white surfaces with a wood grain finish for a contemporary yet warm appearance. It comes equipped with a full suite of built in appliances, including an induction cooktop, dishwasher, refrigerator, freezer, oven, and a combination oven and microwave. Both the living room and the kitchen provide direct access to the terrace, which is positioned on the southeast side of the property. This orientation ensures excellent sunlight exposure throughout the day, and a manual sunblind is in place to provide shade on particularly warm days. The window frames on this floor are made of maintenance free synthetic material.
The basement level represents a particularly valuable feature of this property, offering versatile additional space that can serve a variety of purposes. The largest room in the basement is a garden room with double doors opening directly to the rear garden, along with a built in wardrobe along one wall. This room can easily function as an additional living area, a home office, a hobby room, or a playroom for children, depending on the needs of the household. It is also possible to adapt the layout of this floor to create a fully independent living unit with a kitchenette, making it suitable for multi generational living, hosting guests, or generating rental income, subject to relevant permits.
The basement floor further contains a bathroom with a shower, toilet, and washbasin. An adjacent separate room houses a bathtub, the connections for the washing machine and dryer, and the central heating boiler. The CV boiler dates from 2020 and is owned rather than rented. A door from this room provides additional access to the rear garden.
The first floor accommodates four bedrooms and a second bathroom. The master bedroom is situated at the rear of the property and is equipped with its own air conditioning unit. Two of the bedrooms on this floor are connected to each other, which opens up various configuration possibilities, such as combining them into one large master suite, using one as a walk in closet, or maintaining them as separate rooms for children or siblings. At the front of the house are two additional bedrooms. All four bedrooms include built in wardrobes, providing practical and generous storage space. The bathroom on this floor is modern and well sized, fitted with a shower, toilet, double washbasin with a vanity unit, and floor heating. Natural light enters the room through a window, contributing to a pleasant and airy feel.
The rear garden is notably spacious given the plot size of 323 square metres. Oriented towards the southeast, the garden receives sun for most of the day, offering multiple seating areas where one can enjoy outdoor living from morning until evening. The combination of the terrace adjacent to the living areas and the garden at basement level means the property offers excellent outdoor space at different levels. At the back of the garden is a carport, which provides covered parking on private land. The shared driveway is accessible through an electric gate and is used in common with the neighbours.
The property is situated in a child friendly neighbourhood in the southern part of Aalsmeer, a town known for its quiet residential character and its comprehensive range of local amenities. Schools, public transport links, sports facilities, and shops for daily groceries are all easily accessible. The Ophelialaan, a popular local shopping street with specialty stores and a supermarket, is within close proximity. The centre of Aalsmeer and the recreational area surrounding the Westeinderplassen, which offers lakes, beaches, and walking and cycling paths, are both nearby. The location is well connected for commuters, with Amsterdam, Hoofddorp, and Schiphol Airport all within reasonable reach via the regional road network.
The construction date of the house is 1958. It has double glazed windows throughout and an energy label of D, valid until 29 April 2036. The property is offered at an asking price of 699,000 euros costs to buyer. The buyer is entitled to choose the notary for the transfer, provided that the notary has an office in Aalsmeer, Uithoorn, or Amstelveen, or within five kilometres of the property. Should the buyer prefer a notary outside this area, the seller and the selling agent may charge additional fees to cover extra administrative costs.
