Extended terraced home with spacious kitchen and large bathroom in Eindhoven
Key Features
Description
Diepenbrockstraat 4 is situated in the Bennekel-Oost neighborhood of Eindhoven, a residential area known for its family-friendly atmosphere and convenient location. The property is an extended terraced house that was originally built in 1947. Over the years, the home has been thoughtfully updated and expanded to meet modern living standards while retaining some of its original character elements such as decorative ceiling moldings and panel doors.
The asking price for this property is 375,000 euros, which translates to approximately 4,121 euros per square meter of living space. The total living area measures 91 square meters, spread across three levels. The plot size is 144 square meters, providing a comfortable outdoor space for residents. The property also includes an external storage area of 9 square meters in the form of a detached stone shed located at the rear of the garden.
Upon entering the home through the front door, visitors will notice a distinctive feature: the door can be opened in two sections, with the upper portion operating independently from the lower part. This practical design element allows for ventilation while keeping small children and pets safely inside, or for having a conversation with someone at the door without fully opening the entrance. The hallway provides access to the staircase leading to the first floor and opens into the main living area.
The ground floor living room benefits from the extension at the rear of the property, which creates a spacious and open feeling throughout the space. A window at the front of the house ensures good natural light, while the extension allows views straight through to the back of the home. The room features decorative ceiling lines, cornices, and ornaments that add character to the space. One wall is finished with stone strips for visual interest. The floor is covered with tiles in a fresh, neutral color, and the entire ground floor is equipped with underfloor heating for comfort during colder months. A staircase cupboard in the living room offers substantial storage space, and the renewed electrical meter box is also located here.
The extension at the rear houses the modern open-plan kitchen and dining area. The walls and ceiling are smoothly finished with stucco, and a skylight ensures plenty of natural light enters the space. There is ample room for a generous dining table, making this area suitable for both everyday meals and entertaining guests. The kitchen provides abundant work and storage space, featuring built-in appliances including a large oven, a ceramic cooktop with a sleek stainless steel hood above it, a refrigerator, and a combination oven in another wall unit.
From the kitchen, there is access to the garden, a utility room housing the central heating boiler and providing a washing machine connection, and the ground floor bathroom. The bathroom is notably large and features a combination of white and anthracite-colored landscape tiles. Like the rest of the ground floor, it has underfloor heating, including a heated shower seat. The bathroom includes a jacuzzi bathtub, a walk-in shower with a thermostatic faucet, a sink set in a vanity unit, and a wall-hung toilet.
The first floor features a landing that provides access to two bedrooms and a storage area. This level has plastic window frames with insulating glazing, contributing to the energy efficiency of the home. Original panel doors lead to the bedrooms, and both rooms have large dormer windows that add extra space and natural light.
The main bedroom features attractive wainscoting on the walls and has a door leading to a large built-in closet or storage space. The second bedroom is currently set up as a dressing room with an open built-in closet. This closet includes a water connection, as there was previously a shower installed in this room. Despite this previous use, the space offers plenty of room and light thanks to the dormer window.
The second floor consists of an attic storage space accessible via a hatch on the landing. The listing notes that it would be possible to install a fixed staircase and a roof extension to create an additional room on this level, which would add valuable living space to the property.
The garden at the rear of the property faces northwest and measures 58 square meters, with dimensions of approximately 14.79 meters in depth and 4.67 meters in width. The outdoor space combines wooden decking areas with patio paving, creating an attractive and functional area for relaxation and outdoor activities. The garden offers good privacy and is bordered by both stone and wooden fencing. At the rear of the garden is the detached stone storage shed equipped with electricity. A gate provides access to a path that runs behind the properties.
Regarding energy efficiency, the property has been assigned an energy label E. However, the listing indicates that the home is actually more energy efficient than this label suggests, partly due to the insulated floor. The property features double glazing on some windows and partial double glazing on others, along with floor insulation. The central heating system consists of an Intergas HRE 28/24 RF2 CW 4+A label gas-fired combination boiler from 2018, which is rented rather than owned.
Additional features of the property include roller shutters on both the ground floor and first floor, contributing to security and temperature control. The home has natural ventilation throughout.
