Expanded Family Home with Luxury Finish and Sunny Garden in Purmerend
Key Features
Description
Located in the child friendly neighbourhood of Purmer Zuid, this spacious family home at Brielsemeer 3 offers a comfortable living environment that has been thoughtfully extended and modernised throughout. The property presents itself as a turnkey residence suitable for families looking for a home that requires no additional work before moving in.
The house has been enhanced with multiple extensions and additions over the years, resulting in a living space that significantly exceeds what one might expect from a typical terraced home built in 1989. The ground floor living area has been extended by three metres at the rear, creating an expansive open plan space that benefits from abundant natural light entering through the large glass rear facade. The interior features a herringbone pattern PVC floor with underfloor heating, providing both aesthetic appeal and practical comfort during the colder months. A recently renovated wood burning fireplace serves as a focal point in the living area, adding warmth and character to the space.
The open plan kitchen is positioned at the front of the ground floor and has been fitted with a comprehensive range of modern appliances. These include a dishwasher, induction cooking hob, extractor hood, combined refrigerator and freezer unit, steam oven, and a combination microwave oven. This configuration allows for efficient meal preparation and catering for family gatherings.
Access to the garden is achieved through sliding doors from the living room, seamlessly connecting the interior living space with the outdoor area. The garden has recently been completely renovated and features a pleasant veranda along with a new storage shed that includes a canopy structure. The garden is oriented towards the southwest, which means it receives sunlight for a significant portion of the day and throughout much of the year. This orientation makes it possible to enjoy outdoor living from early spring well into autumn.
The first floor accommodates two generously proportioned bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The rear bedroom has been substantially enlarged through the construction of a roof extension, which effectively merged what were originally two separate rooms into one large sleeping quarters. Both bedrooms on this level feature contemporary finishes, with the rear bedroom additionally equipped with roller shutters for light control and added insulation.
The bathroom on the first floor continues the modern aesthetic found throughout the property. It is fitted with a walk in shower, a second toilet, and a double vanity unit. Underfloor heating has been installed in the bathroom, adding to the comfort level.
The second floor has been maximised through the addition of two dormer windows, which have increased the usable floor area on this level considerably. The landing area has been cleverly utilised to create a dedicated workspace, making this floor particularly suitable for those who work from home. Two separate bedrooms have been created on this floor, both featuring knee wall storage areas that provide additional space for belongings. The rear bedroom on this level also benefits from roller shutters. For those requiring even more storage, an attic space is accessible via a loft ladder from one of the bedrooms.
The property benefits from comprehensive insulation measures, including roof insulation, high performance double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation. These measures contribute to the B energy label rating. Heating is provided through a combination of district heating, the wood burning fireplace, and partial underfloor heating. Hot water is supplied via the district heating system.
The immediate surroundings offer a quiet and green environment that is well suited to family life. Local amenities including supermarkets, schools, and sports facilities are available within close proximity. The centre of Purmerend is reachable by bicycle, and the location provides excellent connectivity to Amsterdam and the broader Randstad region for commuters.
Practical features of the property include tilt and turn windows throughout all floors, fibre optic cable connection, and public parking in the vicinity. The total living area measures 130 square metres, with an additional 5 square metres of internal storage space and 6 square metres of external storage. The plot covers 149 square metres in total, with the rear garden accounting for 64 square metres of this area. The building has a volume of 481 cubic metres.
This property represents an opportunity to acquire a substantially improved family home in a desirable residential area. The combination of extensions, modern finishes, good insulation, and a recently renovated garden creates a home that offers both immediate livability and long term comfort.
