Renovated Semi-Detached House with Large Garage and South-Facing Garden in Ede
Key Features
Upsides
- The property has excellent sustainability features including energy label A, an A+++ heat pump, 12 solar panels, and comprehensive insulation throughout the building, making it well-prepared for future energy requirements.
- The outdoor space is a significant asset with a 152 square meter south-facing garden and a large 37 square meter detached garage, providing ample space for parking, storage, hobbies, or outdoor living.
- The location is highly convenient, being within walking distance of a shopping center, close to the Ede-Wageningen intercity station for quick connections to major cities, and near the Veluwe forests for nature recreation.
- The property has been extensively renovated in recent years, with a new bathroom and toilet in 2025 and completely renewed bedrooms in 2024, reducing the need for immediate renovation work by the buyer.
Downsides
- The living area of 70 square meters is relatively small for a house priced at 419,500 euros, resulting in a high price per square meter of approximately 5,993 euros.
- The property has only two bedrooms, which may be insufficient for families with more than two children or those needing additional rooms for a home office alongside bedrooms.
- A portion of the garden directly behind the garage does not belong to the property and is owned by the housing corporation Woonstede, which limits the full use of the outdoor space.
- The garage is not insulated, which limits its usability as a comfortable year-round workspace or hobby room.
- Despite the heat pump capability for hot water, the current setup still requires a CV boiler for this purpose, meaning the property is not yet fully gas-free as described as possible.
Description
This characteristic semi-detached house located on Blokkenweg 39 in Ede was originally built in 1922 and has been substantially renovated in recent years. The property combines historical charm with modern energy-efficient installations, making it suitable for buyers who appreciate both character and sustainability. The residence features a living area of 70 square meters spread over two floors, with a total plot size of 230 square meters.
The ground floor layout begins with an entrance hall that provides access to a toilet room with a floating toilet, both installed in 2025, as well as the meter cupboard and the staircase to the first floor. The living room has a warm atmosphere with a lamella parquet wooden floor. The seating area is positioned at the rear of the house, while the dining area is located at the front. Large windows ensure pleasant natural light throughout the space. The front window is equipped with a roller shutter for privacy and light control.
Adjacent to the living room is the simple semi-open kitchen, which has a door leading to the backyard. The kitchen windows also feature roller shutters. Connected to the kitchen is a practical utility room of approximately 4 square meters, containing connections for a washing machine and offering additional storage space. This utility room has a side door providing access to the side of the property.
The first floor accommodates two spacious bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The landing provides access to a roof terrace measuring over 13 square meters. The largest bedroom is situated at the front of the house and includes two built-in closets. The second bedroom is located at the rear and can serve as a bedroom, home office, or hobby room. Both bedrooms were completely renewed in 2024, with all walls rebuilt and smoothly finished with decorative molding for a high-quality appearance.
The bathroom, renovated in 2025, covers approximately 5 square meters and features a shower cabin with glass sliding door and thermostatic faucet, a second floating toilet, and a double vanity unit. The finish is modern and stylish.
A loft space accessible via a pull-down ladder provides additional storage for seasonal items and household goods. This space also houses the CV boiler.
The outdoor area is a significant feature of this property. The backyard measures approximately 152 square meters and is oriented to the south, ensuring sunlight throughout the day. The garden is well-maintained and offers possibilities for multiple terraces, play areas for children, or creating a green retreat. A large sunshade is installed for comfortable shade on warm days. It is important to note that a small strip of land directly behind the garage does not belong to the property but is owned by the housing corporation Woonstede.
The detached wooden garage is approximately 37 square meters and is not insulated. This multifunctional space can accommodate a car, motorcycles, or bicycles, and also offers excellent potential as a workshop, hobby space, or additional storage. The property includes parking on its own grounds with a private driveway.
In terms of sustainability, the property has been well prepared for the future despite its 1922 construction year. The house has an energy label A and is equipped with an A+++ heat pump for heating, combined with 12 solar panels. The heat pump is also capable of providing hot water, which means the property can be made fully gas-free. Currently, a CV boiler is used for hot water. The entire property has been retrofitted with insulation, including roof insulation, wall insulation, floor insulation, and HR-glass windows. Mechanical ventilation is installed for good air quality.
The location on Blokkenweg is central and well-connected in Ede. Daily amenities are within walking distance, including the Hoog Maanen shopping center. The NS intercity station Ede-Wageningen is approximately 5 minutes away, providing fast connections to Utrecht, Arnhem, and the Randstad. The A12 and A30 highways are easily accessible. For nature lovers, the extensive Veluwe forests are within a 15-minute walk, allowing quick access to natural surroundings.
The property is offered at a price of 419,500 euros (kosten koper). The sale will use a standard NVM purchase agreement. As the property is older than 20 years, an asbestos clause and an age clause will be included. For purchases without financing contingency, a six-week period applies for depositing the security sum or bank guarantee after drafting the purchase agreement. The property is partially furnished. All stated measurements and surface areas are indicative.
