Modernized Terraced House with 4 Bedrooms, Garden and Roof Terrace

This charming terraced house is situated on De Wetlaan in Zeist, a location known as one of the most beloved streets in this attractive town. The property dates back to 1910 and has been entirely modernized while retaining its original character and atmosphere. With a living area of 120 square meters spread across three floors, four well proportioned bedrooms, and a pleasant outdoor space including a roof terrace, this residence presents itself as an ideal family home.

De Wetlaan is a quiet one way street positioned on the edge of the center of Zeist. Residents benefit from being within walking distance of various shops and dining establishments. The area is well suited for families, with daycare centers and several primary schools located just around the corner. For those who enjoy nature and outdoor activities, the extensive forests of Zeist are easily accessible. The property also benefits from its proximity to major roads leading to Utrecht and Amersfoort, as well as convenient access to public transportation. The Utrecht Science Park can be reached by bicycle, making this location particularly attractive for professionals working in the knowledge sector.

Entering the property on the ground floor, you are welcomed by a small hallway that houses the meter cupboard and a guest toilet with a small sink. From here, you step into the spacious and bright living room. The living room features a herringbone parquet floor that adds warmth and character to the space. A wood burning stove has been installed, creating a cozy atmosphere during the colder months. The staircase to the first floor is located within the living room.

Connected to the living room through sliding doors is the modern kitchen, which is arranged in a parallel layout. The kitchen is equipped with various built in appliances that invite culinary experimentation. A notable feature is the glass access hatch in the kitchen floor, which provides entry to the cellar below. The cellar houses the central heating combi boiler installation. The kitchen offers a pleasant view of the back garden and has a door leading directly outside.

The first floor can be reached via a fixed staircase. The landing provides access to two spacious bedrooms and the bathroom. The larger bedroom at the rear of the property includes a built in closet and features access to a generous roof terrace that catches the sun throughout the day. The modern bathroom on this floor is fully tiled and fitted with a shower cabin, a bathtub, a second toilet, and a vanity unit with sink.

The second floor is accessed via another fixed staircase. The landing on this floor is illuminated by a skylight, ensuring natural light reaches this level. On the landing, a practical kitchen counter has been installed where the laundry appliances are conveniently located. This floor contains two additional spacious bedrooms, both featuring skylights that bring in daylight. One of these bedrooms includes a built in closet for extra storage.

The outdoor spaces of this property contribute significantly to its appeal. At the front, there is a small garden area. The rear garden faces southwest, which means it enjoys plenty of sunshine during the afternoon and evening hours. The garden features a lovely veranda where residents can sit and relax. Adjacent to the garden is a freestanding stone storage shed that has an electrical connection. A rear path provides access to the back of the property.

In terms of energy efficiency, the property has achieved an energy label B rating. The roof extension, which was constructed in 1998, has been insulated. The property features double glazing windows, though some original single glazed windows remain with secondary glazing added for improved insulation. Eight solar panels have been installed on the roof, contributing to reduced energy costs. Additionally, air conditioning has been installed on the second floor, providing comfort during warmer periods.

The heating system consists of a Nefit gas fired combi boiler that was installed in 2019 and is owned by the current proprietor. Hot water is provided through this same boiler system. The property is connected to a fiberglass cable network for high speed internet access.

Given the original construction year of 1910, it is important to note that the purchase agreement will include both an age clause and an asbestos clause. These are standard provisions for older properties in the Netherlands and serve to inform the buyer about the potential presence of materials that were commonly used during that construction period.

Parking in the area is regulated through a permit system, which is typical for residential neighborhoods close to town centers in the Netherlands. The property is offered at an asking price of 629,000 euros, with the transaction costs to be borne by the buyer. This translates to approximately 5,242 euros per square meter of living space.

The parcel measures 114 square meters, and the total volume of the building is 439 cubic meters. In addition to the 120 square meters of living space, there is 6 square meters of other indoor space, 12 square meters of building related outdoor space, and 9 square meters of external storage space. The property is registered in the Land Registry under the designation ZEIST H 543 and is offered with full freehold ownership.

This property combines the character and charm of a pre war home with modern comforts and conveniences. The central location in Zeist, combined with the proximity to natural areas and major transportation routes, makes this a well positioned family residence. The four bedrooms provide ample space for a family, while the roof terrace and garden offer outdoor living options. The recent modernization efforts, including the updated kitchen, bathroom, and energy improvements, mean that the new owner can move in without immediate renovation concerns.
