Spacious Semi-Detached Villa with Home Office Space in Haarlem-Zuid
Key Features
Upsides
- The property offers a flexible layout with a dedicated practice room featuring its own entrance and waiting area, making it ideal for those who want to combine living and working from home.
- The south-facing garden of 270 square meters provides excellent sunlight exposure and privacy, complemented by parking space for multiple vehicles and an electric charging station on the premises.
- The location in Haarlem-Zuid near the Heemstede border offers convenient access to shops, schools, sports facilities, and major roads to Amsterdam, all within close proximity.
- Sustainable features including 15 solar panels, HR++ glazing, floor insulation, and a recently installed 2023 combination boiler contribute to reduced energy costs and modern comfort.
- The solid foundation with concrete piles classified as risk category A provides peace of mind regarding the structural integrity of the property.
Downsides
- The attic space is only accessible via a pull-down ladder (vlizotrap) and has a limited central height of 1.79 meters, restricting its practical use to storage rather than additional living space.
- The property is located within a protected cityscape (beschermd stadsgezicht), which may impose restrictions on exterior modifications or renovations that prospective buyers should investigate.
- The kitchen has a closed layout rather than an open-plan design, which may not align with current preferences for modern, interconnected living and kitchen spaces.
- With an energy label B rating, the property falls in the middle range of energy efficiency and may require additional insulation or improvements to reach higher efficiency standards.
- At a listed price of €1,350,000, the price per square meter of €7,068 represents a significant investment that buyers should evaluate against comparable properties in the area.
Description
This semi-detached villa is situated in a desirable residential area of Haarlem-Zuid, directly adjacent to the border of Heemstede. The property offers a total living area of approximately 191 square meters, set on a plot of 536 square meters, providing ample space for family living and potential home-based professional activities.
The ground floor of the residence comprises approximately 115 square meters of living space, supplemented by about 25 square meters of additional indoor space. This generous ground floor layout makes the property particularly suitable for families who wish to combine residential living with a home-based practice or office. The practice room features its own separate entrance and a waiting area, making it well-suited for various professional purposes that require client visits. The practice space also includes its own toilet facility for added convenience and privacy.
The main living area is an L-shaped room that benefits from abundant natural light, offering space for multiple seating arrangements. This configuration allows for distinct zones within the living room, accommodating both relaxation and entertainment needs. The kitchen is a closed layout, which provides separation from the living areas and connects practically to the utility room, laundry area, and storage space. This arrangement keeps household tasks organized and out of sight from the main living areas.
The first floor contains four bedrooms, with two positioned at the front of the property and two at the rear. One of the rear bedrooms features a spacious balcony and is equipped with air conditioning, providing comfort during warmer months. The centrally located bathroom is fitted with a bathtub, a shower, and a double vanity unit. A separate toilet on the ground floor adds convenience for daily living and for visitors using the practice space.
The second floor consists of a spacious attic that is accessible via a pull-down ladder. The central height of this attic space measures approximately 1.79 meters, offering potential for storage or future development, though the current access method and height limitations should be considered.
The outdoor spaces of this property are a notable feature. The garden is south-facing, ensuring plenty of sunlight throughout the day, and provides a high degree of privacy. The rear garden measures 270 square meters, with dimensions of 22.50 meters in depth and 12.00 meters in width. The property also includes a front garden, contributing to the overall appeal of the home. Parking is available on the premises for multiple vehicles, and an electric vehicle charging station has been installed, reflecting modern transportation needs.
The property has been improved with several sustainable features. Fifteen solar panels have been installed on the roof, contributing to reduced energy costs. The windows feature HR++ glazing, and floor insulation has been added to improve thermal comfort. The energy label is rated B, indicating a reasonable level of energy efficiency. The heating system consists of a combination boiler (Intergas HRxtreme) installed in 2023, which is gas-fired and owned by the property owner. Partial underfloor heating is also present.
The structural foundation consists of concrete piles, classified as risk category A, which indicates no known foundation issues. The roof is a gabled design covered with tiles, consistent with the architectural style of the neighborhood.
The location of this property is one of its strong attributes. The Jan van Goyenstraat, with its variety of shops for daily necessities, is within walking distance. Schools, sports facilities, and recreational opportunities are all within a short cycling distance. For commuters, the main roads heading toward Amsterdam and other destinations are easily accessible within a few minutes by car.
The property is situated within a protected cityscape (beschermd stadsgezicht), which means the area has recognized historical or architectural value. This designation helps maintain the character of the neighborhood but may impose certain restrictions on exterior modifications. The setting includes proximity to a park, a quiet road position, a sheltered location, and placement within a residential neighborhood.
Additional features of the property include exterior sun blinds, a skylight, a chimney flue, a sliding patio door, and TV cable connections. The total volume of the building is 796 cubic meters. The property is offered with full ownership (volle eigendom) and is available for viewing and purchase through the standard NVM process.
This villa presents itself as a versatile family home with the added benefit of professional space, located in a well-regarded area of Haarlem with good access to urban amenities and transportation networks.
