Spacious Corner Home with Five Bedrooms and Private Parking in Zutphen
Key Features
Upsides
- Five bedrooms provide exceptional space for a starter home, offering flexibility for home offices, guest rooms, or future family growth.
- Private parking space and a separate bicycle storage building are included, which is uncommon for properties in this price range.
- Eight solar panels were installed in 2024, reducing energy costs and improving sustainability beyond the current energy label C rating.
- The location combines a quiet residential setting with walking distance to schools, shopping center De Bink, and a short five-minute bike ride to Zutphen's historic center.
- Air conditioning on both the ground floor and second floor adds comfort during warmer periods.
Downsides
- The energy label C indicates the base efficiency is moderate, and while improvements have been made, the official label has not been updated to reflect these changes.
- The garden faces east, meaning it receives morning sun but limited afternoon and evening sunlight, which may be less desirable for those who prefer evening outdoor relaxation.
- Only partial double glazing and partial plastic window frames are present, meaning some windows may still be single-glazed or have older frames requiring future replacement.
- The property includes 31 square meters of mandelig (shared) land, which means some outdoor space is jointly owned with neighbors and may come with usage restrictions.
- The home was built in 1976, which means the foundation and structural elements are nearly 50 years old and may require attention in the coming years.
Description
This corner house is situated in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood in Zutphen, within close proximity to the IJssel river. The property offers a total living area of 108 square meters and a volume of 398 cubic meters, spread across three living floors. With five bedrooms in total, this home provides ample space for starters or growing families looking for their first property.
The ground floor features an entrance hall that leads to the meter cupboard and a toilet. The living room is bright and benefits from a practical understairs storage closet, a herringbone pattern floor, and a recently installed plastic frame door system with double doors opening to the backyard. This design creates a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living spaces. The open kitchen is equipped with a nearly new setup including an extractor hood, hot water tap, dishwasher, and an attractive stove.
The first floor contains three bedrooms measuring approximately 10, 8.5, and 13.8 square meters respectively. The high ceilings on this level contribute to a spacious feeling throughout the rooms. The bathroom on this floor is fitted with a shower, a washbasin, and a second toilet for added convenience.
The second floor has been expanded with the addition of a dormer window, creating two additional rooms that can serve as bedrooms, home office spaces, or hobby areas. The landing on this floor accommodates the central heating boiler setup and a washing machine connection. The inverter for the eight solar panels, which were installed in 2024, is also located here.
Outside, the property offers a private bicycle storage building and a dedicated parking space at the front. The backyard faces east and measures 40 square meters, with dimensions of 8 meters in depth and 5 meters in width. This outdoor space provides privacy and a pleasant area for relaxation or social gatherings. The garden is accessible via a rear path.
In terms of energy efficiency, the property currently holds an energy label C. This label was issued before several energy-saving measures were implemented. The home now benefits from solar panels, cavity wall insulation, floor insulation, partial plastic window frames, and partial double glazing. Air conditioning units have been installed on both the ground floor and the second floor for climate control during warmer months.
The heating system consists of an ATAG gas-fired combination boiler from 2018, which is owned by the property. The home features mechanical ventilation, fiberglass internet connectivity, and television cabling. Exterior sun shading is also available.
The location of this property is particularly convenient. Primary schools, the De Bink shopping center, and the IJssel river are all within walking distance. The historic center of Zutphen can be reached by bicycle in approximately five minutes. This combination of a peaceful residential setting with easy access to urban amenities makes the location highly practical.
The total plot size is 119 square meters, with an additional 31 square meters of shared (mandelig) land. The property is registered as full ownership in the land registry under the Zutphen N 741 and ZUTPHEN N 755 sections.
