Charming 1930s Corner House with Garage and West-Facing Garden

This charming 1930s corner house is located at 2e Barendrechtseweg 340 in the Molenvliet 1 district of Barendrecht. The property offers a living area of 82 square meters on a generous plot of 249 square meters. Built in 1939, this residence combines original period features with modern updates and sustainable improvements. The asking price is 475,000 euros, costs to be paid by the buyer.

The front garden creates an welcoming first impression with its well-maintained design featuring paving, gravel, electrical connections, and a stately palm tree that adds character to the facade. The entrance leads into a hallway that provides access to the stairs leading to the upper floors, a practical understairs storage cupboard, and a modern fully tiled toilet room that includes a window and a wall-hung toilet. The renewed electrical fuse box is also conveniently located in the hallway.

The ground floor features a spacious and bright through-living room that benefits from the corner position of the house, allowing natural light to enter throughout the day. At the front of the living room, a characteristic bay window adds visual interest and a sense of charm typical of homes from this era. At the rear, patio doors open directly onto the backyard, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces.

The open kitchen is arranged in a practical L-shaped layout and comes equipped with a range of appliances including a gas hob, oven, microwave, refrigerator, freezer, extractor hood, sink, and a dishwasher that was installed in 2025. A separate door from the kitchen provides additional access to the backyard.

The outdoor spaces are a particular highlight of this property. The backyard and side garden face west, ensuring the garden receives ample afternoon and evening sunlight. The garden has been attractively landscaped with a combination of paving and grass areas, outdoor lighting, a palm tree, and an outdoor water tap. A lockable canopy structure has been installed that is equipped with heaters and an all-burner stove. This covered outdoor room also has water and electricity connections as well as its own toilet facility. This versatile space could alternatively be used as a garage if preferred. The backyard measures 131 square meters with a depth of 14 meters and a width of 9.5 meters.

The first floor is accessed via the staircase from the hallway. The landing provides access to three bedrooms and the main bathroom, with a loft ladder leading to the attic space above. The first bedroom is situated at the rear of the property and includes a built-in wardrobe and an electric screen for shade control. The second bedroom is located at the front of the house. The third bedroom, also at the rear, has been fitted with a small sink and washing machine connections, and features access to a balcony that faces west.

The modern bathroom on this floor is fully tiled and appointed with a walk-in shower featuring a rain showerhead, a double vanity unit with a wall-mounted cabinet, a mirror cabinet, a second toilet, and a designer radiator. A window in the bathroom provides natural ventilation.

The second floor currently offers a generous open space that houses the HR combination boiler, a Remeha model installed in 2020. The listing notes that due to the available space and ceiling height, this floor could potentially be reconfigured to create two additional bedrooms, which would bring the total number of bedrooms to five. Such a conversion would require relatively significant modifications to be carried out.

The property has been improved in terms of sustainability in recent years. The roof was insulated in 2025, and eight solar panels were installed in 2023 with an average annual yield of approximately 2,500 kilowatt hours. The electrical fuse box has been renewed. The property currently holds an energy label D. Insulation measures include roof insulation, mostly double glazing, and wall insulation.

Additional features of the property include a detached stone garage with electricity and running water, parking space on the driveway for two cars, and a balcony at the rear of the first floor. The total building volume is 314 cubic meters. The property includes 5 square meters of other indoor space and 3 square meters of building-bound outdoor space. External storage amounts to 21 square meters.

The location is described as central within Barendrecht, situated near a park, in the town center area, and within a residential neighborhood. The listing indicates that all daily amenities are within easy reach, with good connections to main roads, schools, shops, and public transport options. The property is currently available and the delivery date can be negotiated.
