Charming 1950s Detached Family Home with Studio and Beautiful Garden

Beukenlaan 7 is situated in the municipality of Harderwijk and presents a particularly charming detached family home with a fantastic garden, located in an excellent position within a pleasant residential environment. This characteristic residence, originally built in the 1950s, features an attached studio that can serve as a work or hobby room, a garage, a carport, and a garden storage building. The property is centrally located along a tree lined avenue with abundant greenery in the immediate vicinity. Shops, schools, and main roads are within walking distance.

The layout and configuration of the main house, combined with the multifunctional extension and the generous space both inside and outside, make this property suitable for various target groups. The building underwent significant renovations and improvements in both 2001 and 2016, resulting in a contemporarily finished home that offers all modern comforts while retaining the original charming appearance. Through careful preservation of authentic details, the house has maintained its warm, classical atmosphere. The renovations were carried out with attention to detail, ensuring harmony with the classical character of the property while incorporating contemporary conveniences.

During the renovation and expansion works, the ground floor was largely fitted with an insulated concrete floor. Much of the woodwork was renewed, and floors and walls were partially replaced. All installations, piping, sanitary facilities, and kitchen fittings were updated. The property benefits from wall insulation, roof insulation, and full double glazing throughout.

The ground floor accommodation comprises an entrance hall with staircase and cloakroom, a cellar cupboard, a bedroom, and a bathroom complete with a bathtub, toilet, and washbasin. The living room is spacious and atmospheric, featuring a wood burning stove. Adjacent to the living area is a conservatory style extension that connects to the large, bright living kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with an extensive range of built in appliances dating from 2015, a work and washing island, a sliding patio door leading to the terrace, and a unique wine storage area. A utility room houses the central heating boiler and provides connections for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

From the utility room, there is internal access to the garage and the adjoining multifunctional extension. This space functions as a studio, work room, or hobby room and includes a mezzanine level and its own compact bathroom with shower, washbasin, and toilet. French doors open directly to the garden and terrace. This flexible space can easily serve as a guest accommodation, additional bedroom, home office, or hobby area.

The first floor is accessed via a spacious landing with natural daylight. Here there are two good sized bedrooms, though the current configuration shows one larger bedroom that was previously divided into two smaller rooms, featuring a dormer window and a work and sleeping area. The master bedroom includes a built in wardrobe wall and has direct access to a sizeable roof terrace. A second bathroom on this floor is equipped with a toilet, washbasin, and shower corner. Adequate storage space is also provided on this level.

The garden has been fully landscaped and features multiple terraces, offering both sunny and shaded areas while providing ample privacy. The outdoor space includes a lawn, a simple tree house, and an irrigation system connected to a private water source. A recently constructed wooden outbuilding in the garden provides storage for bicycles and garden tools, a new sauna, and a pleasant covered seating area. The driveway alongside the house offers space for multiple vehicles and can accommodate a camper or caravan. A generous carport provides additional covered parking.

The property has a total living area of 184 square meters, with an additional 27 square meters of other indoor space, 34 square meters of building related outdoor space, and 8 square meters of external storage. The total plot area measures 758 square meters, comprising three cadastral parcels with full ownership. The building volume is 721 cubic meters.

In terms of energy efficiency, the property holds a B energy label. Insulation measures include roof insulation, double glazing, high performance glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation. Heating is provided by a gas fired high efficiency combination boiler installed in 2017, with partial underfloor heating also available. Hot water is supplied via the same combination boiler system.
