Description
Space, light, and comfort come together in a particularly strong way in this property. A.M. de Jongstraat 18 is not a standard home, but a royally sized and surprisingly complete family house with no less than 182 square meters of living space and a deep plot with a beautifully landscaped garden. Upon arrival, it is immediately noticeable that this house looks cared for, quiet, and solid. The wide facade, the green front garden, the characteristic roof, and the neat street presentation give an immediate feeling of quality. This is a property where one does not have to search for space, as it is simply there. And this is done in a way that is practical, logical, and pleasantly livable.
The ground floor is set up royally. The living room forms the heart of the home and offers ample possibilities. Due to the width of the property and the large window surfaces, a light, open, and comfortable living space is created. On the garden side, the French doors ensure a beautiful connection with the outside. This makes the living room not only pleasant to use but also gives a feeling of freedom and tranquility. The kitchen setup is practical and equipped with various built-in appliances. At the front is a separate work room. This is an enormous plus. This room makes the ground floor flexible and future-proof. Furthermore, there is a spacious hall, a toilet room, and a practical storage room present.
The layout on the ground floor is designed to facilitate modern living. The spacious hall provides access to the various rooms and ensures a welcoming entrance. The separate toilet room increases the convenience for residents and guests. The practical storage room offers sufficient space to store items such as bicycles, garden tools, or household items, keeping the living areas clutter-free. The separate work room at the front of the house is a significant feature, providing a quiet space to work from home without disturbing the rest of the household. This flexibility is highly sought after in today's housing market.
The first floor also does not disappoint. Here there are three full-sized bedrooms, a bathroom, a separate toilet, and a spacious landing. The largest bedroom has a fixed closet. The two other bedrooms are also of a pleasing size. The landing is spacious enough to serve as a small sitting area or study spot, adding to the versatility of the floor. The presence of a separate toilet on the first floor is a luxury that prevents morning queues and adds to the overall comfort of the daily routine.
The bathroom is well-equipped with facilities that cater to the needs of a family. It features a walk-in shower, a bathtub, a washbasin, and a washbasin cabinet. The combination of a shower and a bath offers the choice between a quick rinse and a long, relaxing bath. The vanity unit provides necessary storage for toiletries and towels, keeping the bathroom organized and tidy.
Also on the second floor, there is a surprisingly large amount of usable space. Currently, a bedroom and a multifunctional room are situated here. This floor offers excellent potential for customization, depending on the needs of the residents. It can serve as a master suite, a teenage retreat, or a guest room combined with a hobby room. The use of the space under the sloping roof adds character and can create cozy niches, while the skylights ensure that the space remains light and airy.
The backyard is deep, well-maintained, and beautifully landscaped with a combination of paving, gravel patches, greenery, and plants. The garden offers a lot of privacy and usage possibilities. It is a place where one can fully enjoy the outdoors, whether it is for gardening, playing, or simply relaxing. The depth of the garden, measuring over 17 meters, ensures that the house is not immediately overlooked by neighbors, contributing to a sense of seclusion. At the back of the garden stands a free-standing shed of approximately 6 square meters, with an adjoining canopy or overhang. This structure provides shelter from the sun and light rain, making it possible to sit outside even when the weather is not perfect.
The property is located on a plot of 306 square meters. The garden is located on the east, which means it is a lovely spot to catch the morning sun with a cup of coffee. The garden is accessible via a back entrance, which is convenient for, for example, bringing bicycles into the garden or accessing the shed directly from the rear path. The front garden also contributes to the inviting appearance of the property and provides a buffer between the living space and the street.
Regarding the construction and technical features, the house was built in 1998. The roof is a composite roof covered with tiles. The property has double glazing, roof insulation, floor insulation, and is fully insulated. These features contribute to a comfortable indoor climate and help to reduce energy costs to some extent, although an energy label is not currently available. The heating and hot water are provided by a gas-fired boiler (CV-ketel), which is owned by the seller.
Additional features include outdoor sun blinds, which help to keep the house cool during warmer days, and shutters for darkening rooms and securing the house. The property is connected to a fiber optic cable, ensuring high-speed internet access, which is essential for the modern household, especially with a home office. Natural ventilation is present, contributing to a healthy living environment.
Parking is available on the property's own grounds, so there is no need to search for a parking space on the public road. This adds to the convenience of daily life. The property is classified as a single-family home and a semi-detached dwelling, offering a balance between privacy and community. The cadastral designation is Goeree-Overflakkee B 5585, and the ownership situation is full ownership.
In summary, A.M. de Jongstraat 18 is a residence with character, volume, and future value. It offers a rare combination of space, light, and practical layout. The separate office, the five bedrooms, and the deep garden make it an ideal home for families looking for room to grow and live comfortably. The solid construction and well-maintained condition ensure that the new owners can move in and enjoy the property immediately, with the option to adapt the spaces to their own taste over time. This is a home that invites you to stay and enjoy the comfort and tranquility it has to offer.
