Exclusive Ground Floor Apartment with Private Garden in Laren-Centrum
Key Features
Description
Nispen Laren represents an exceptional new construction project situated in the heart of Laren, a highly sought-after village in the Gooi region. This development comprises three stylish detached villas that together house ten exclusive apartments. The architectural design draws inspiration from the authentic chalet-style buildings that characterized this stretch of the Burgemeester van Nispen van Sevenaerstraat around 1900, resulting in a design that harmonizes with the protected villagescape of Laren while making a statement of understated luxury.
The specific apartment offered here is unit 10-A, a ground floor residence with a net living area of 150 square meters. The property features a thoughtful and elegant layout designed by Marcel Wolterinck, with particular attention to residents making the transition from a spacious single-family home. The interior includes two generous bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. A large living kitchen adjoins a dining area, and a bright, atmospheric living room completes the living spaces. Throughout the apartment, ample built-in closet space has been incorporated.
One of the distinguishing characteristics of this apartment is the ceiling height of 3.15 meters, which lends a remarkable sense of spaciousness and grandeur to the interior. The garden, measuring approximately 105 square meters, surrounds the apartment and features two pleasant terraces facing east and southwest, effectively extending the living space outdoors.
At present, future buyers still have the opportunity to significantly influence the interior layout according to their personal preferences. The current floor plan shown serves as an example of what is possible.
The apartments are delivered in a casco-plus condition. This means that all basic provisions are included in the purchase price: the complete layout, technical installations, all interior doors, and all plasterwork. Buyers are responsible for floor finishes, kitchen, custom cabinetry, sanitary fixtures, and lighting. There is the option to have these finishing works carried out directly by Vlassak-Verhulst, the builder, if desired.
The technical installations deserve special mention. All systems, including the heat pump, hydrophore, water softener, and a separate installation for underfloor heating, are discreetly located in the parking garage beneath the building. This arrangement ensures that no valuable living space is lost to technical rooms and that maintenance can be performed without any inconvenience to the residents. The apartment is fully insulated and features geothermal heating, underfloor heating throughout, and a heat recovery system.
The parking facility is a notable feature of this development. A heated ramp from the Stationsweg leads to a remotely operated door granting access to the luxuriously finished and well-lit underground garage, which is equipped with camera surveillance. Each apartment is entitled to two parking spaces, each with its own electric charging point. Additionally, every apartment has a private storage room of 8 square meters, spacious enough to accommodate golf equipment, skis, luggage, and other belongings. A communal bicycle storage area with charging points is also available.
Three separate lifts connect the parking garage to the apartments in the various villas, ensuring convenient and private access to each residence.
The realization of Nispen Laren has been entrusted to Vlassak-Verhulst, a Belgian family business with fifty years of experience in residential construction at the highest level. This builder has previously completed impressive apartment villas in Laren, including the prestigious projects Laerderhorst and Landgoed Larendael, where architecture and interior design come together in perfect harmony.
The location in the center of Laren offers the convenience of village amenities within walking distance, while the Gooi region provides a green and tranquil living environment. Laren is known for its attractive landscape, cultural offerings, and proximity to major cities such as Amsterdam and Utrecht.
Interest in Nispen Laren has been significant, with 70 percent of the project already sold during the pre-sale phase. Construction has commenced, and completion is scheduled for the summer of 2027.
The asking price is 2,380,000 euros, payable free of name transfer costs (vrij op naam). The monthly homeowners association contribution is 780 euros. The price per square meter amounts to 15,867 euros.
The homeowners association is properly organized, with registration with the Chamber of Commerce, annual meetings, periodic contributions, a reserve fund, a maintenance plan, and building insurance all in place.
For those interested in this apartment, the listing agents Henk Honing and Jacques E. Walch, both registered real estate agents with offices in Laren and Blaricum, invite prospective buyers to contact them for a personal conversation at the construction site, where they can provide additional information about the property.
