Move-in ready corner house with extension and solar panels in Badhoevedorp
Key Features
Description
Located on a quiet street in the northwest part of Badhoevedorp, this corner house at Chr. Huygensstraat 30 offers a living experience that combines modern comfort with practical spatial planning. Originally built in 1955, the property has been thoroughly modernized in recent years to meet contemporary living standards while retaining its characteristic residential appeal.
The ground floor has been extended at the rear, creating a substantially larger living area that benefits from abundant natural light. Large window sections and skylights ensure that the interior remains bright throughout the day. The flooring consists of modern tiles in a light color scheme, complemented by light-toned walls that contribute to a calm and contemporary atmosphere.
A see-through fireplace is positioned centrally within the living space, providing a subtle visual division between the sitting area and the kitchen while simultaneously adding warmth and character to the interior. The open kitchen features dark cabinet fronts paired with a black worktop, resulting in a stylish and modern appearance. The kitchen is equipped with built-in appliances including an oven, gas stove, and extractor hood. Ample cabinet space is available, and there is sufficient room for a dining area with views of the garden.
The ground floor also contains a modern bathroom fitted with a bathtub, walk-in shower, and a sink vanity with mirror. The finish utilizes neutral, contemporary tones. Additionally, a full bedroom with an adjacent walk-in closet is located on this level. This configuration makes the property suitable for aging in place, as it eliminates the need to climb stairs for essential living functions. The room could alternatively serve as a home office or guest room.
On the first floor, two well-proportioned bedrooms are present. Both rooms feature large windows that allow plenty of daylight to enter, and each provides sufficient space for a bed arrangement along with storage furniture. The layout of these rooms allows for flexible furnishing options.
The first-floor bathroom is finished to a high standard with warm tones and quality materials, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a hotel environment. This bathroom includes a walk-in shower, a sink vanity, and a toilet. The landing area on this floor includes built-in cabinet space and a dedicated setup for a washing machine and dryer, keeping laundry appliances conveniently accessible yet out of living areas.
The second floor consists of an attic space accessible via a pull-down ladder. This area serves as additional storage space, providing sufficient room for seasonal items and belongings that are not needed on a daily basis.
The backyard has been thoughtfully designed to function as an extension of the living space. A spacious canopy is attached directly to the rear of the property, allowing for comfortable outdoor seating throughout the year regardless of weather conditions. The garden includes multiple seating areas, green plantings, and a cozy lounge section at the rear. This arrangement ensures that a pleasant spot can be found at any time of day, whether one prefers sun or shade. The garden measures 69 square meters with a depth of 8.79 meters and a width of 7.80 meters, oriented toward the southeast.
A freestanding wooden storage shed of approximately 4 square meters is located in the garden, and a rear access path provides convenience. The combination of paved surfaces and greenery results in an outdoor space that is both attractive and relatively low-maintenance.
The property features several sustainability and technology upgrades. Thirteen solar panels have been installed on the roof, contributing to reduced energy costs. Additionally, a 21 kilowatt Alpha ESS home battery system is connected, allowing for energy storage. An electric vehicle charging station is present on the property, and a driveway provides parking space for one to two vehicles.
Fiber optic internet connectivity is available at the property. The energy label is rated C, with double glazing and HR glass installed for insulation. Heating and hot water are provided by an Intergas Compact HRE combination boiler from 2008, which is included in the sale. The property features both mechanical and natural ventilation systems.
Both toilets in the property are equipped with bidet functionality. The total built volume of the property is 412 cubic meters. The built outdoor space measures 20 square meters.
Badhoevedorp is a residential village located in the municipality of Haarlemmermeer, positioned in close proximity to Amsterdam. The northwest area where this property is situated offers a quiet residential environment while maintaining good accessibility to urban amenities and transportation networks. The street itself is described as a quiet road within a residential neighborhood, contributing to a peaceful living environment.
The corner position of the property provides certain advantages over mid-terrace homes. Additional windows along the side elevation can allow for increased natural light penetration into the interior spaces. The corner location also typically offers more privacy compared to homes situated between two neighboring properties.
The presence of both a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom makes this property particularly suitable for households that include elderly family members or individuals with mobility considerations. The ability to live entirely on the ground floor level, with kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom all accessible without stairs, represents a significant practical advantage that not all properties of this era offer.
The technical installations merit attention. The Intergas Compact HRE boiler dates from 2008, which means it is approximately 16 to 17 years old at the time of listing. While this boiler model is generally regarded as reliable, potential buyers may wish to factor in the possibility of boiler replacement within the coming years as part of their long-term maintenance planning. The combination of solar panels and the home battery system does provide a degree of energy independence and may help offset ongoing energy costs.
The property is being marketed by GratisVerhuizen makelaardij. As with any property transaction, prospective buyers are advised to engage their own independent professional inspection before committing to a purchase, to verify the condition of the property and to confirm that all described features and installations are in proper working order.
