Spacious Apartment with Large Southwest Balcony in Pijnacker Noord

This apartment is situated on the Cort van der Lindenlaan in Pijnacker Noord, a residential area that offers a balanced living environment within the Randstad region. The property is located on the third floor of a gallery flat building that was constructed in 1968. Despite its age, the apartment has been maintained in good condition and features modern updates that make it ready for immediate occupancy.

The entrance to the building is located on the ground floor, where residents have access to a communal hallway with an intercom system and mailboxes. A staircase and lift provide access to the upper floors. The ground floor also houses the bicycle storage areas and private storage units belonging to the residents. The apartment itself is reached via the gallery on the third floor.

Upon entering the apartment through the front door, you step into a hallway that provides access to the various rooms. The meter cupboard is located in this entrance area, along with a practical wardrobe closet for storing coats and shoes. The entire apartment has been fitted with a modern PVC floor with an underlay, which gives the space a clean and uniform appearance.

The main bedroom is positioned at the front of the apartment. This room offers a green and open view directly towards the communal vegetable garden. The master bedroom features several built-in closets, providing ample storage space. One of these closets houses the boiler that supplies the apartment with hot water.

The bathroom and a separate toilet are also accessible from the central hallway. The bathroom has been finished with modern materials and is equipped with a shower and a washbasin. The separate toilet room includes a small fountain or sink, which is a practical addition.

At the rear of the apartment, two additional bedrooms are located. One of these rooms is currently being used as a walk-in closet or storage room, but it can easily function as a third bedroom. From one of these rear bedrooms, you have direct access to the balcony.

The balcony is a notable feature of this apartment. Measuring approximately 19 square meters, it spans the full width of the apartment at the rear. The southwest orientation means the balcony receives plenty of sunlight throughout the afternoon and evening, making it an ideal spot for outdoor seating, dining, or gardening. The outdoor space is described as a sunny terrace in the property characteristics.

The living room is open and spacious, with the luxury open kitchen integrated into the living area. The kitchen is finished in grey tones with a wood-look worktop, creating a modern and warm appearance. The kitchen is equipped with various built-in appliances, including a built-in oven, a refrigerator-freezer combination, a dishwasher, an induction cooktop, and an extractor hood. This setup makes the kitchen fully functional for daily use.

The apartment has a total living area of approximately 87 square meters and a volume of 288 cubic meters. In addition to the living space, there is a external storage unit of 7 square meters located on the ground floor, which is suitable for storing bicycles and other items.

In terms of energy efficiency, the apartment has an energy label B, which is valid until April 2032. The building has been partially insulated with double glazing, HR glass, and wall insulation. The heating is provided through block heating, which is a centralized system common in apartment buildings from this period. Hot water is supplied by an electric boiler. The monthly advance for heating costs is 100 euros.

The homeowners association is active and properly organized. The monthly VvE contribution is 185 euros. The association is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, has a maintenance plan in place, maintains a reserve fund, and has arranged building insurance. These are all positive indicators of a well-managed residential complex.

The location of the apartment is one of its strong points. Pijnacker Noord is a residential neighborhood with various amenities in the vicinity. Schools, shops, and childcare facilities are within easy reach. For recreation, there are options nearby. The area also has good connections to major roads and public transportation. The Randstadrail provides a direct connection to surrounding cities. Places such as The Hague, Rotterdam, Delft, and Zoetermeer are all located at a relatively short distance, making this apartment suitable for people who work in different cities within the Randstad.

Parking is available on public roads in the area. There is no private parking space or garage associated with this apartment.

The property is offered at a price of 399,000 euros, which is buyer's cost. This means that additional costs such as transfer tax and notary fees are to be paid by the buyer on top of the purchase price. The asking price per square meter is approximately 4,586 euros.

When purchasing this property, several clauses will be included in the purchase agreement. These are the age clause, the asbestos clause, and the non-occupancy clause. The age clause is standard for older properties and means that the buyer acknowledges the age of the building. The asbestos clause relates to the possibility of asbestos being present in the building, which was common in construction materials used in 1968. The non-occupancy clause applies when the property is sold by someone who does not live there themselves.

The transfer date is to be agreed upon between buyer and seller. The listing notes that a verbal agreement is not legally binding and that only a signed purchase agreement creates a valid sale, as stipulated by Article 7:2 of the Dutch Civil Code.

This apartment presents itself as a well-maintained home in a convenient location within the Randstad. The combination of three bedrooms, a modern kitchen, a large sunny balcony, and good accessibility to major cities makes it a property worth considering for various target groups, including couples, families, and people who work in the region.
