Swalmen is a village in the province of Limburg. The property is situated close to the village center, which can be reached on foot within a few minutes. The train station is also within walking distance, making this location convenient for commuters.

The ground floor is accessed via a pathway through the front garden. Upon entering, you reach a spacious hallway that provides access to a cloakroom, a separate toilet room, the meter cupboard, the staircase to the first floor, and a door leading to the living room.
The toilet room on the ground floor is partially tiled and equipped with a wall hung toilet, a small sink, and mechanical ventilation. The living room is spacious and benefits from plenty of natural light. At the front of the house, an open kitchen has been installed. This kitchen was placed in 2024, making it essentially new. It features an oven, a combination oven with microwave function, an induction cooktop with integrated extraction, a dishwasher, a sink, a Quooker instant boiling water tap, and ample storage space. Additionally, there is a storage cupboard under the stairs in the living room. The garden can be reached through two French doors. The entire ground floor, with the exception of the toilet room, has a PVC floor.
The first floor can be reached via the staircase. The landing provides access to three bedrooms, the bathroom, and a fixed staircase leading to the second floor. The three bedrooms measure approximately 15 square meters, 10 square meters, and 6.5 square meters respectively. All bedrooms are fitted with roller blinds. The bathroom is spacious and includes a bathtub with shower facilities, a wall hung toilet, a sink with vanity unit, a radiator, and an exterior window for natural light and ventilation. The bedrooms and the landing have laminate flooring.
The second floor is accessed via a fixed staircase. Here, a fourth bedroom has been created, with natural light entering through a skylight. The laundry connections for washing machine and dryer are located on this floor, as well as the central heating boiler and the mechanical ventilation system. The boiler is an Intergas model and is rented rather than owned, which comes with a monthly cost of 41 euros.
The front garden features tiles and gravel, and there is a driveway with space for two cars. The backyard is fully fenced and features a spacious terrace and artificial grass. The garden faces east, meaning it receives morning sun.
The property includes an attached stone garage with capacity for one car. Parking is available both on the property itself and on the public road.
The house was built in 2004. The volume measures approximately 497 cubic meters. In addition to the living area of 115 square meters, there is 23 square meters of other indoor space, likely including the garage and storage areas.
The full insulation of the property contributes to its A energy rating. The 14 solar panels installed on the roof further enhance the energy efficiency and help reduce electricity costs. The combination of insulation, HR glazing, and solar panels makes this an energy conscious home with relatively low energy consumption.

The location in Swalmen offers a balance between village character and accessibility. Swalmen has various local amenities including shops, schools, and recreational facilities. The proximity to the train station makes it possible to travel to larger cities in the region without needing a car, which is convenient for those who work or study elsewhere.
The A73 highway connection is particularly valuable for those who need to travel by car regularly. This highway provides direct access to cities such as Roermond, Venlo, and further connections to the national highway network. The combination of public transport and highway access makes this location practical for various lifestyles.
The property itself is described as well maintained. The 2004 construction year means the house has modern standards of insulation and construction quality compared to older properties in the region. The full insulation package including walls, roof, and floor ensures comfort throughout the year and contributes to manageable energy costs.
The open kitchen layout at the front of the living room creates a social space where cooking and socializing can happen simultaneously. The 2024 installation means all kitchen appliances are current. The induction cooktop with integrated extraction is a modern feature that eliminates the need for a traditional extractor hood, which can improve the aesthetics and functionality of the kitchen space.
The Quooker instant boiling water tap is a convenient addition that provides immediate access to boiling water for cooking, tea, and coffee. This is a feature that many homeowners appreciate for the convenience it offers in daily kitchen tasks.
The four bedroom layout provides flexibility for different household compositions. A family with children could use all four bedrooms as bedrooms, while a household with fewer residents might choose to use one of the bedrooms as a home office, hobby room, or guest room. The variation in bedroom sizes, ranging from 6.5 to 15 square meters, allows for different uses based on the size requirements.
The second floor bedroom benefits from the skylight that provides natural light. Having the laundry facilities on the same floor keeps the noise and visual presence of washing machines and dryers away from the main living areas.
The bathroom on the first floor includes both a bathtub and shower facilities, providing options for different preferences. The presence of a second toilet in the bathroom, in addition to the ground floor toilet, is practical for a household with multiple residents.
The roller blinds on all first floor bedrooms provide both light control and privacy. They also offer some insulation benefit during colder months and can help keep rooms cooler during summer.
The outdoor spaces have been designed for low maintenance. The artificial grass in the backyard eliminates the need for mowing and regular lawn care, which appeals to those who want to enjoy their garden without significant maintenance requirements. The terrace provides a space for outdoor seating and dining.
The front driveway with space for two cars, combined with the garage for one car, provides parking for up to three vehicles. This is generous for a corner house and valuable in areas where street parking can be competitive.
The PVC floor on the ground floor is a practical choice that is durable, easy to clean, and comfortable underfoot. Laminate flooring on the upper floors provides a similar combination of practicality and appearance.
The rented central heating boiler is worth noting for potential buyers. The monthly cost of 41 euros is an ongoing expense that will continue unless the boiler is purchased outright from the rental company. Buyers may want to consider the cost of buying out the boiler versus continuing the rental arrangement.
Overall, this property presents itself as a well maintained, energy efficient family home in a convenient location within Swalmen. The combination of modern features such as the 2024 kitchen and solar panels, along with practical elements like four bedrooms and ample parking, creates a property that should appeal to a range of potential buyers.
