Key Features
Description
Welcome to this exceptional and thoughtfully designed apartment located at Burchtstraat in the vibrant heart of Nijmegen. This well maintained and modern three room apartment offers an unparalleled combination of urban convenience and comfortable living. Situated on the third floor of a carefully maintained apartment complex built in 2001, this property presents an outstanding opportunity for those seeking stylish city centre living with excellent energy efficiency and modern amenities.
The apartment encompasses approximately 91 square meters of living space, providing ample room for comfortable daily life. Upon entering through the main entrance, you are welcomed into a hallway that provides access to the meter cupboard and all rooms within the apartment. The thoughtful layout ensures a natural flow between spaces while maintaining distinct areas for different activities.
The living room serves as the central gathering space of the home, bathed in natural light thanks to well positioned windows that create a bright and airy atmosphere throughout the day. This generous living area seamlessly connects to the open kitchen, forming the heart of the apartment where daily life unfolds. The open concept design allows for easy interaction between cooking, dining, and relaxing, making it an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining guests.
One of the standout features of the living room is the presence of sliding doors that open directly onto the loggia. This thoughtful architectural element creates a wonderful indoor outdoor connection, allowing residents to enjoy fresh air and outdoor ambiance while remaining sheltered from the elements. The loggia itself covers approximately 7 square meters and provides a protected outdoor space where you can comfortably sit outside from early in the season onwards. This sheltered outdoor area effectively extends your living space during warmer months and offers a pleasant retreat for morning coffee or evening relaxation.
The kitchen has been designed with both functionality and style in mind. It features a modern open layout with a sink island that serves as both a practical workspace and a social hub. The kitchen comes fully equipped with a comprehensive range of built in appliances that cater to all your culinary needs. These include a dishwasher for convenient cleanup, a refrigerator for food storage, an induction cooktop for precise temperature control, an oven for baking and roasting, a microwave for quick heating, and a Quooker for instant boiling water. This well appointed kitchen makes cooking a pleasure while allowing you to remain connected with your guests or family members in the adjacent living area.
The apartment offers two generously sized bedrooms, both fitted with wooden window frames featuring double glazing. These windows provide excellent thermal insulation and soundproofing, contributing to the overall energy efficiency of the property while ensuring peaceful sleep. The bedrooms receive good natural light and offer sufficient space for wardrobes and other bedroom furniture, making them comfortable retreats for rest and relaxation.
The bathroom has been designed with comfort in mind and features a washbasin, a whirlpool bath for luxurious soaking, and a heated towel radiator that ensures warm towels are always available. The separate toilet room includes a washbasin, adding convenience for both residents and guests. Additionally, the apartment includes a practical laundry room equipped with connections for a washing machine and dryer, as well as housing the mechanical ventilation system.
Throughout the apartment, the finish is modern and cohesive. A continuous PVC floor runs through the living spaces, creating visual unity and easy maintenance. The walls and ceilings have been finished with smooth stucco, giving the interior a clean and contemporary appearance. The attention to detail in the finishing contributes to the overall sense of quality and refinement that characterizes this property.
The apartment is fully insulated and carries an energy label A rating, which is valid until March 9, 2036. This excellent energy rating reflects the property's efficient use of energy and contributes to lower utility costs. Heating and hot water are supplied through the city's district heating system, distributed via radiators throughout the apartment. This reliable and efficient heating method ensures comfortable temperatures year round.
For additional storage needs, the property includes an external storage unit of approximately 5 square meters located on the first floor of the complex. This storage space is equipped with electricity and provides convenient space for items that do not need to be kept within the main living area, such as seasonal decorations, sporting equipment, or household supplies.
The building itself benefits from an elevator, making it easily accessible for residents and their visitors. Mechanical ventilation and natural ventilation systems work together to ensure good air quality throughout the apartment. A TV cable connection is also available for entertainment needs.
The Homeowners Association (VvE) for this apartment complex is active and well organized. The monthly contribution is €168.95, which covers the maintenance and management of the common areas and building structure. For residents who require parking, there is an option to rent a parking space in the nearby Stadhuis parking garage for an additional €35 per month. The VvE is registered with the Chamber of Commerce (KvK) and holds all necessary documentation, including building insurance, a reserve fund for future maintenance, and a multi year maintenance plan (MJOP). Annual meetings are held to discuss matters related to the building, and periodic contributions ensure the building remains well maintained.
The location of this apartment is truly exceptional. Situated on Burchtstraat in the Stadscentrum neighborhood, you find yourself at the very heart of Nijmegen's vibrant urban life. Everything you need is literally around the corner. The shops, restaurants, cafes, and terraces of Nijmegen are right at your doorstep, offering endless options for dining, shopping, and entertainment. Cultural hotspots and entertainment venues are within easy walking distance, providing a rich and varied urban lifestyle.
Despite the central location, the apartment itself offers a peaceful retreat thanks to its modern insulation and thoughtful design. Within just a few minutes of walking, you can reach the scenic Waalkade along the river, the beautiful Kronenburgerpark for green relaxation, or the Central Station for easy connections to other cities and regions. This combination of central convenience and personal comfort makes the apartment particularly appealing for those who want to experience the best of city living.
The property is offered at an asking price of €550,000 kosten koper, which translates to approximately €6,044 per square meter. The acceptance date is flexible and can be discussed with the sellers. It is worth noting that a non owner occupation clause applies to this sale, and interested parties are encouraged to inquire about the specific conditions that apply.
Parking in the area is available through paid parking arrangements, with the additional option of renting a space in the Stadhuis parking garage through the VvE arrangement. This provides flexibility for residents who own vehicles while living in the city centre.
In summary, this apartment offers a rare combination of modern living comfort, excellent energy efficiency, quality finishing, and an unbeatable central location in one of the Netherlands' most charming cities.
