New Construction Apartment with Garden in Molenzicht Geffen
Key Features
Description
Molenzicht is a new construction project located in Geffen, situated within the larger residential development known as 't Veld. This particular apartment, identified as building number 05, is one of eighteen apartments being developed in this phase. The location is notable for its position adjacent to a green zone, offering views of the historic Molen Zeldenrust, a well-known landmark in the area. The development is being carried out by Reuvers Van Bergen Ontwikkeling & Bouw B.V., which represents a collaboration between Van Bergen Bouw and Reuvers Ontwikkeling & Bouw. The actual construction work is being handled by Reuvers Ontwikkeling & Bouw, and the project comes with a Woningborg Guarantee Certificate, which provides buyers with additional security regarding the completion and quality of the new build.
The apartment has a usable living area of approximately 85 square meters and is situated on the ground floor. Ground floor apartments offer a particular type of living experience that many residents find appealing, as they provide direct access to outdoor space without the need to use stairs or elevators. This apartment features its own private entrance at the front of the building, allowing residents to enter their home directly from the exterior without passing through any shared hallways or stairwells.
Upon entering the apartment through the private entrance, you reach the hallway area which contains the toilet, the meter cupboard, and provides access to the main living area. The meter cupboard houses the utilities and connections for the home. From this entrance area, you proceed into the combined living room and kitchen space.
The living room is designed to be light and open, featuring large window sections that allow substantial amounts of natural daylight to enter the space. This open layout creates a sense of spaciousness and connects the living area seamlessly with the kitchen. The kitchen is open in design, forming one cohesive space with the living room. Buyers have the opportunity to personalize their kitchen by selecting from various options that will be made available during the purchasing process, allowing each resident to tailor the kitchen to their own preferences and cooking habits.
From the living room, there is access to the two bedrooms that this apartment offers. Both bedrooms have been designed with en-suite bathrooms, meaning each bedroom has its own private bathroom directly accessible from the bedroom itself. This layout provides a high degree of privacy and convenience, making the apartment particularly suitable for various living arrangements, whether that involves a couple, a small family, or someone who frequently hosts guests.
The first bedroom has an associated bathroom that is described as spacious. This bathroom offers the possibility to include a bathtub as an optional feature, along with a walk-in shower, a design radiator, a washbasin, and an additional toilet. Having a second toilet in the en-suite bathroom adds convenience for residents and guests alike. The second bedroom also has its own en-suite bathroom, which is equipped with a walk-in shower and a washbasin. Both bathrooms feature walk-in showers, which are practical and modern features that many homebuyers value.
Behind the kitchen, there is a technical room that also serves as additional storage space. This room houses the technical installations for the apartment, such as the mechanical ventilation system and potentially the heat pump equipment, while the remaining space can be utilized for storage purposes, helping to keep the living areas organized and free of clutter.
A significant feature of this ground floor apartment is the garden. The garden is accessible from the living room through sliding doors, creating a smooth transition between the indoor and outdoor living spaces. The garden is described as sheltered, which can provide protection from wind and create a more comfortable outdoor environment. This outdoor space extends the living area and offers opportunities for relaxation, outdoor dining, or gardening. The garden area measures 77 square meters, providing a substantial outdoor space for a ground floor apartment.
In addition to the living space and garden, the apartment includes an internal storage room measuring 5 square meters. This storage space is useful for keeping items such as bicycles, gardening equipment, seasonal decorations, or other belongings that you may not need to access daily but still want to store conveniently at home.
The apartment also comes with a dedicated parking space on the property. Having a private parking space is a valuable feature, especially in newer residential developments where on-street parking may be limited. The parking space is located on the grounds of the development, providing convenient access to your vehicle.
The entire apartment has been designed with life-cycle suitability in mind, which is referred to as levensloopbestendig in Dutch. This means the layout and features of the apartment are designed to accommodate residents throughout different stages of life, including potential mobility limitations that may arise with aging. Features that contribute to life-cycle suitability include the ground floor location, the absence of stairs within the apartment, and the en-suite bathrooms that allow residents to have bedroom and bathroom facilities on the same level.
In terms of energy efficiency, the apartment achieves an A+++ energy label, which is the highest energy rating available. This excellent energy performance is achieved through full insulation of the building envelope and the use of a heat pump for heating. Full insulation means that the floors, walls, and roof are all insulated to high standards, minimizing heat loss and reducing energy consumption. The heat pump provides an efficient and sustainable way to heat the home, as it extracts heat from the outside air or ground and transfers it indoors. These features combined result in lower energy bills for residents and a reduced environmental impact compared to less efficient homes.
The apartment features mechanical ventilation, which ensures a continuous supply of fresh air throughout the home while extracting stale air and moisture from areas such as the bathrooms and kitchen. Mechanical ventilation is important in well-insulated homes to maintain good indoor air quality and prevent issues related to humidity.
The roof construction consists of a composite roof covered with bituminous roofing material and reed. This combination of materials provides both durability and an aesthetically pleasing appearance that fits with the character of the development.
The location of the apartment is described as being near a park and along a quiet road. This positioning offers residents a living environment that is removed from busy traffic and close to green recreational areas, which can contribute to a peaceful and pleasant residential experience. The proximity to the Molen Zeldenrust adds a distinctive visual element to the surroundings.
The asking price for this apartment is 470,000 euros, which is stated as vrij op naam, meaning the buyer does not pay additional transfer tax or notary fees for the property transfer as these costs are included in the asking price. This results in a price per square meter of approximately 5,529 euros based on the 85 square meters of living space.
The expected completion date for the apartment is in 2027. New construction projects typically involve a waiting period between purchase and completion, and buyers should take this timeline into account when planning their move.
