Riverfront apartment with panoramic water views in Ridderkerk
Key Features
Description
Situated directly along the Nieuwe Maas river, this corner apartment on Ankerplaats in Ridderkerk offers a residence where the water views provide a constantly changing panorama throughout the seasons. The property is located on the third floor of the well-maintained complex called De Toren, which was built in 1998.
Upon arriving at the complex, residents benefit from a secure entrance with an intercom system and mailboxes. The central hall provides access to the elevators and the storage areas. One of the notable conveniences of this apartment is that it includes both a private storage unit and a private parking space on the ground floor, which is particularly valuable in an era where parking can be challenging to find.
The apartment itself is accessed via the elevator, bringing you directly to the front door on the third floor. The entrance hall provides access to all rooms within the residence. A PVC floor has been laid throughout the entire apartment, creating a cohesive and low-maintenance living environment.
The living room is generously proportioned and features windows on both the front and side facades. The natural light is complemented by the views over the river, which serve as a focal point of the home. The morning sun reaches the balcony, making it an pleasant spot to start the day. The balcony has been equipped with sliding glass panels around its perimeter, allowing residents to extend the outdoor season by closing the panels when desired while still enjoying the view.
The kitchen is finished in grey high-gloss and configured as a corner layout. It comes equipped with a range of built-in appliances including an extractor hood operating on recirculation, an induction cooktop, a coffee machine, a refrigerator, a freezer, and a dishwasher. A Quooker instant boiling water tap has also been installed, adding convenience to the kitchen setup.
The apartment contains two bedrooms. The primary bedroom is described as very spacious and features a custom closet wall that spans the full width of the room, providing substantial storage capacity. The second bedroom, while smaller, is still generously sized and benefits from an additional side window that brings in extra natural light.
The bathroom has been finished with attractive tiles and includes a walk-in shower along with a double vanity unit featuring a mirror cabinet. A separate toilet is located adjacent to the bathroom for added convenience.
A dedicated utility room houses the connections for the washing machine and dryer, as well as the central heating boiler. The boiler is a Remeha combi boiler that was installed in 2022 and is included in the purchase, meaning the new owner will not need to replace this essential system in the near term.
The property holds an energy label A rating, which is achieved through features including aluminum window frames with HR double glazing and wall insulation. Fiber optic internet is available in the apartment, ensuring fast and reliable connectivity for those who work from home or require high-speed internet for other purposes.
The location in the Bolnes district of Ridderkerk offers a balance between waterfront living and practical amenities. The shopping center De Werf is nearby for daily grocery shopping and other retail needs. The Waterbus stop provides an alternative mode of transport for those commuting to Rotterdam or Dordrecht by water. For car travel, the main roads leading to Rotterdam and Dordrecht are easily accessible. The Donckse Velden recreational area is close by, offering walking opportunities in a green environment.
The Homeowners Association is properly organized with registration at the Chamber of Commerce, annual general meetings, a maintenance plan, and a reserve fund. The building insurance is arranged through the VvE. The monthly contribution is 290 euros, which covers the maintenance of the common areas, the elevator, and the building insurance among other shared expenses.
Given the construction year of 1998, the purchase agreement will include both an asbestos clause and an age clause, which is standard practice for properties of this vintage.
The living area measures 102 square meters according to the NEN2580 measurement standard. The building-bound outdoor space, being the balcony, is 7 square meters. The external storage unit on the ground floor measures 3 square meters. The total volume of the apartment is 318 cubic meters.
The property is offered at 450,000 euros under the costs koper system, meaning the buyer is responsible for the transfer tax, notary fees, and any mortgage-related costs. The asking price translates to approximately 4,412 euros per square meter of living space.
Delivery of the property is negotiable but is estimated to be around December 2026, indicating that the current owner may have specific circumstances requiring an extended transition period. Prospective buyers should factor this timeline into their planning.
All measurements and surface areas provided are indicative and based on the NEN2580 measurement instruction, which aims to provide a more uniform method of measuring for indicating usable surface area.
