Modernized 3-Room Apartment with 2 Balconies and Phenomenal View

Situated in a highly sought after location on Diedenweg in the Benedenbuurt district of Wageningen, this modernized three room apartment presents an attractive opportunity for prospective buyers. The property is located on the second residential floor and is characterized by two balconies and a phenomenal view over the Wageningse Eng. The apartment spans 62 square meters of living space and includes two bedrooms. Originally a four room apartment, the living room was created by merging two rooms, resulting in a spacious and bright living area. The building dates back to 1954 and is a gallery flat or portiekflat, a common and functional housing type in the Netherlands. The location is ideal for those who appreciate nature as well as city conveniences, with extensive forests, the Rhine river, and the city center all within close proximity. The university campus and sports facilities are also easily accessible by bicycle.

The layout of the apartment is practical and well designed. The entrance leads into a hall which houses the meter cupboard and a fixed closet. From the hall, there is access to the first bedroom, the toilet, the kitchen, and the living room. The hallway, kitchen, and toilet are fitted with tiled flooring, while the living room and bedrooms feature laminate flooring. The toilet is modernized and equipped with a hanging closet and a small washbasin. The first bedroom is accessible directly from the hall.

The modern kitchen is a highlight of the apartment, executed in a light color scheme with a countertop made of Portuguese granite. It is fully equipped with built-in appliances including a fridge-freezer combination, a dishwasher, an induction cooktop, an extractor hood, and an oven. Additionally, the kitchen has a design radiator and a fixed cupboard. A door from the kitchen leads to one of the balconies, allowing for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the fresh air.

The living room is the heart of the home and features two fixed closets for storage. Large windows provide access to the balcony and offer the spectacular view over the Wageningse Eng mentioned in the listing. The open feel of the room is enhanced by the fact that it was formerly two separate rooms, now merged to create a generous living space.

The second bedroom is located off the living room and also provides access to the modernized bathroom. This bathroom is well appointed with a walk-in shower, a washbasin table with a mirror cabinet, and a connection for a washing machine. The floor in the bathroom has underfloor heating, adding a touch of luxury and comfort. The central heating boiler, a Remeha Tzerra plus CW4 from 2017, is also situated in the bathroom. This gas-fired combi-boiler provides heating and hot water for the apartment.

One of the key features of this property is the presence of two balconies. One balcony is located at the front of the apartment facing East, while the other is at the rear facing West. This orientation allows residents to enjoy the sun at different times of the day. The balconies contribute to the overall sense of space and outdoor living.

In addition to the living space, the apartment comes with a large storage box located in the basement of the building. This external storage space measures 14 square meters and is valuable for storing bicycles, luggage, or other belongings. Parking is available on public roads in the area, which is standard for this location.

The technical condition of the property is good, with significant renovations already carried out. The kitchen, bathroom, and toilet have all been modernized. The energy label is C, which is a decent rating for a building from 1954, and the heating system is relatively modern, dating from 2017.

The Owners Association, or VvE, is active and healthy. The monthly service costs are 298.44 euros. The VvE has a multi-year maintenance plan, a reserve fund, and building insurance. A significant advantage for future owners is the sustainability project planned by the VvE. Scheduled for the third quarter of 2026, the VvE plans to replace the steel window frames with aluminum frames featuring HR+++ glass. Other planned improvements include the installation of fire-resistant front doors, insulation and coating of the balconies, and cavity wall insulation. Importantly, the VvE has arranged loans and subsidies to cover these costs, meaning the financial burden will not rest directly on the individual owners in the form of a large one-time payment. This work will not only improve the energy efficiency of the building but also enhance the comfort and value of the individual apartments.

In summary, this apartment on Diedenweg offers a comfortable and modern living space in a convenient location. The recent renovations, the presence of two balconies, and the stunning view are immediate selling points. The future sustainability projects organized by the VvE offer long term benefits regarding energy efficiency and maintenance costs. With the city center, nature, and university campus all nearby, this property is well suited for a wide range of buyers looking for a home in Wageningen.
