The location of this property is one of its most distinctive features. Grijpskerk is a village known for its pleasant living environment and good amenities. Within a short distance, residents have access to daily necessities including a supermarket, bakery, and butcher, as well as primary schools and sports facilities. The presence of a train station with direct connections to Groningen and Leeuwarden makes this location especially appealing for commuters who need to travel regularly for work.

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a spacious hallway with access to the staircase and a toilet with a small sink. The ground floor layout has been designed to provide flexible living arrangements. The generous living room benefits from large windows that allow plenty of natural light to enter and provide pleasant views of the garden and the water beyond. The open connection between the living area, dining section, and kitchen creates a cohesive living space where cooking, eating, and relaxing flow together naturally.

The kitchen is centrally positioned and functionally arranged with various built-in appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical utility room that provides additional workspace and storage. This arrangement makes the kitchen area highly practical for daily use and larger gatherings alike.

A notable aspect of the ground floor is the presence of three rooms that can be used flexibly as bedrooms, workspaces, or hobby rooms. This flexibility makes the property particularly attractive for families with varying needs, those who work from home, or individuals who prefer to have their primary living spaces on the ground floor. The ground floor also provides access to the garage.

The first floor is accessed via a staircase that opens onto a landing with a vide, which enhances the feeling of space and gives the property an open and playful character. On this floor, there are five additional bedrooms, giving the property an exceptionally high number of rooms for a detached villa of this type. The master bedroom features a walk-in closet and has direct access to an adjoining modern bathroom equipped with a bathtub, shower, and double sink. A second modern bathroom on this floor includes a shower, a vanity unit with two taps, and a toilet.

The outdoor space is undoubtedly one of the absolute highlights of this property. With a plot of 1,814 square meters, residents enjoy optimal privacy and ample space for various outdoor activities. The location directly on the water provides a unique view and a special living experience that changes with the seasons. Whether for relaxing by the water's edge, gardening, or children playing, the garden offers possibilities for all of these activities. The garden surrounds the property, providing different areas that can be utilized throughout the day depending on the sun's position.

The property includes a double garage with an electric door and electrical connections. This garage offers plenty of space for storing vehicles, as well as opportunities for additional storage or creating a workshop. Additionally, there is a separate wooden storage shed on the property for garden equipment and other items.
