Key Features
Description
The property at Berkenlaan 37 in Aadorp is a detached residence constructed in 2017, offering 161 square meters of living space situated on a parcel of 516 square meters. The home features an A+ energy label, reflecting its energy-efficient design and construction in accordance with contemporary building regulations.
The ground floor of the residence is designed with comfort and functionality in mind. Upon entering through the main entrance, one finds a hallway with tile flooring, the meter cupboard, a water softener installation, and a separate toilet room with a small sink. The staircase leads to the upper floor from this central hall.
The living room is bright and spacious, featuring large windows with stylish transom lights above them. These windows allow abundant natural light to enter the space throughout the day. The floor is finished with quality tiles and includes underfloor heating for optimal comfort. French doors provide direct access to a terrace situated on the side of the property, creating a pleasant outdoor seating area that can be enjoyed during warmer months.
Adjacent to the living area is the open kitchen, designed as a peninsula layout that serves as the heart of the home. The kitchen is finished in a modern rural style and comes equipped with various built-in appliances. These include an induction cooktop with a downdraft extraction system, a dishwasher, a close-in boiler for instant hot water, a refrigerator, an oven, and a combination microwave. The peninsula design allows for casual dining or social interaction while cooking, making it a practical and sociable space for daily use.
A practical utility room is accessible from the kitchen area. This space contains connections for a washing machine and dryer, along with a cabinet wall for additional storage. The utility room and a portion of the hallway are not equipped with underfloor heating, while the remainder of the ground floor features this comfort-enhancing system. The presence of a utility room keeps laundry appliances out of sight and maintains the clean aesthetic of the main living areas.
The first floor accommodates three well-finished bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The landing provides access to all rooms and is finished with carpet flooring. The first bedroom is finished with laminate flooring and provides a comfortable space suitable for various uses such as a bedroom, office, or hobby room. The second bedroom also features laminate flooring and includes a built-in wardrobe wall, offering additional storage capacity without requiring freestanding furniture. The third bedroom, designated as the master bedroom, has carpet flooring and includes a walk-in closet and a custom television cabinet, making it a notable feature of the upper level. The walk-in closet provides ample space for clothing and personal items, while the television cabinet offers integrated media storage.
The bathroom on this floor is comprehensively appointed with a bathtub, a walk-in shower, a toilet, and a generous double vanity unit with two sinks. The bathroom floor also features underfloor heating, adding to the comfort level, particularly during colder months. The inclusion of both a bathtub and a separate walk-in shower provides flexibility for different preferences and routines.
The second floor is accessible via a pull-down ladder and consists of a storage attic where the central heating installation is located. While this space provides useful storage capacity for seasonal items, luggage, and similar belongings, it is not a full living floor and does not have standing height throughout.
Outside, the property offers several attractive features that enhance the living experience. In addition to the side terrace accessed from the living room, there is a covered patio at the rear of the residence. This canopy has floor tiles and glass side panels, creating a sheltered outdoor space that effectively extends the living area and can be used in various weather conditions. The glass panels provide protection from wind while maintaining views of the garden, making this space usable during multiple seasons.
The rear garden measures 140 square meters, with dimensions of 9.35 meters in depth and 15.00 meters in width. The garden is enclosed and oriented toward the northwest. Access to the rear is possible via a side path, which is a practical feature for activities such as placing bins or accessing the garden without going through the home. The property also has front and side garden areas, contributing to the overall green character of the parcel.
A significant feature of this property is the detached garage. This structure is insulated and equipped with electricity including heavy current connections and running water. The garage door is notably high, making it suitable not only for standard vehicles but potentially for a camper as well. The garage has its own Intergas combination boiler with a heater installed in 2017, providing independent climate control for this space. This makes the garage suitable for use as a workshop, hobby space, or even additional accommodation, given the heating and utility provisions. The garage can accommodate two vehicles and offers 64 square meters of external storage space according to the property specifications.
The driveway provides parking space for up to four vehicles on the property, addressing practical parking needs for a household with multiple cars or for visitors.
Regarding energy efficiency, the property achieves its A+ label through various measures. These include roof insulation, wall insulation, floor insulation, and HR++ double glazing throughout. Additionally, the property has 17 solar panels installed in 2017, contributing to reduced energy costs and a smaller carbon footprint. The main heating system consists of a Nefit gas-fired combination boiler from 2017, which is owned by the property owner rather than rented. The combination of these features results in a home that meets contemporary standards for energy efficiency and offers lower ongoing utility costs compared to older properties without such provisions.
Additional features of note include a sun awning on the property for shading outdoor areas during sunny days, roller shutters on the upper rear windows for privacy and light control, a mechanical ventilation system complemented by natural ventilation options, and fiber optic cable connectivity for high-speed internet access. The exterior paintwork is scheduled for renewal at the beginning of 2026, as noted in the property details, indicating ongoing maintenance awareness.
The home was built according to the new building decree applicable at the time of construction, which is reflected in features such as higher door frames than those found in older properties. This architectural detail contributes to a modern and spacious feel throughout the interior, enhancing the sense of quality and contemporary design.
The gross volume of the property is 634 cubic meters. The total usable floor area includes 161 square meters of living space, 4 square meters of other indoor space, and 16 square meters of building-related outdoor space. The external storage space in the garage measures 64 square meters. These figures provide a comprehensive picture of the total accommodation offered by the property.
The property is situated on a quiet road within a residential area in Aadorp Oost. The cadastral designation is AMBT-ALMELO R 500, with the full 516 square meters held in freehold ownership, meaning there are no leasehold or ground lease obligations associated with the property.
This property represents a relatively new construction that combines modern building standards with practical amenities and energy efficiency. The combination of underfloor heating, solar panels, quality insulation, and contemporary fixtures creates a comfortable living environment with favorable ongoing energy costs. The inclusion of a versatile garage space and multiple outdoor living areas adds to the functionality of the property for various lifestyle needs.
