Ready-to-move-in family home with four bedrooms, solar panels and west-facing garden
Key Features
Upsides
- The house comes with 12 solar panels and a central heating system both installed in 2021, which significantly reduces ongoing energy costs and increases the property's energy efficiency.
- The west-facing back garden with a covered terrace provides an ideal outdoor space for enjoying afternoon and evening sun, with the additional benefit of a green view at the rear for extra privacy and tranquility.
- The property offers four well-proportioned bedrooms including an 18-square-meter room on the second floor, providing flexibility for families, home working, or hosting guests.
- The master bedroom is equipped with air conditioning, which is particularly valuable during increasingly warm summers, ensuring comfortable sleeping conditions.
- The house is move-in ready with modern finishes throughout, including underfloor heating on the ground floor, a contemporary bathroom, and shuttered windows, minimizing the need for immediate improvements.
Downsides
- The property has an energy label C, which is only moderate efficiency for a house. While the solar panels and recent boiler help, buyers seeking higher energy performance may find this limiting.
- Only one bathroom serves four bedrooms, which can create morning bottlenecks for larger families, particularly during busy weekday routines.
- The house was constructed in 1983, meaning it is over 40 years old. While well-maintained, older construction may eventually require more maintenance or renovation work on systems and structure.
- The plot size of 174 square meters is relatively modest, and the back garden at 62 square meters may feel small for families who want more extensive outdoor space.
- The roof is described as covered with bituminous roofing material, which typically requires replacement every 20 to 30 years. The age and condition of this roofing element is not specified in the listing.
Description
This well-maintained terraced house, built in 1983, offers comfortable family living with a total living area of approximately 121 square meters on a plot of 174 square meters. Located in the quiet residential area of Blerick, the property provides easy access to daily amenities, schools, public transport, and major road connections. Both the center of Blerick and Venlo are within cycling distance.
The ground floor welcomes you with a practical entrance hall leading to the modern toilet, staircase, and the spacious living area. The entire ground floor features a contemporary decorative gravel floor with underfloor heating, creating a clean and uniform appearance throughout. The open-plan kitchen is situated at the front of the house, allowing the cook to remain connected with the rest of the household while preparing meals. The kitchen has been finished with modern fixtures and fittings.
The living room has been extended at the rear, creating a generous living space that easily accommodates both a comfortable seating area and a dining table. A large sliding glass door at the back provides excellent natural light and creates a pleasant connection to the outdoor area. The extension significantly enhances the sense of space on the ground floor compared to the original layout.
The back garden measures 62 square meters with dimensions of approximately 11.32 by 5.45 meters. The garden faces west, allowing residents to enjoy afternoon and evening sun. A covered terrace provides shelter for outdoor relaxation regardless of weather conditions. A free-standing brick storage shed offers practical storage for garden equipment and bicycles. The garden is accessible via a back entrance, which is convenient for bringing in items from the street. A green area behind the garden adds to the sense of openness and tranquility.
The first floor contains three bedrooms and the bathroom. The master bedroom measures approximately 13 square meters and is equipped with air conditioning, providing comfort during warm summer nights. The second bedroom is about 11 square meters and the third bedroom is approximately 6.5 square meters, making it suitable for use as a children's room, home office, or guest room. The modern bathroom has been thoughtfully designed and includes a bath, walk-in shower, second toilet, and a vanity unit with sink. All windows on this floor are fitted with shutters for privacy, light control, and additional comfort.
The second floor features the fourth bedroom, which is a particularly generous space at approximately 18 square meters. This floor can serve various purposes such as a teenager's room, guest accommodation, home office, or hobby space. Additional storage is available here for items not needed on a daily basis, and the technical installations are also housed on this floor.
The property has been equipped with several modern energy-saving features. Twelve solar panels were installed in 2021 and are owned outright, helping to reduce electricity costs. The central heating system consists of a Remeha combination boiler from 2021, which heats both the home and provides hot water. The property holds an energy label C, which is reasonable for a house from 1983 with the improvements that have been made. Some insulation has been added to the roof and walls.
Parking is available on the property itself as well as on the public street. The house is connected to all main utilities and the municipal sewer system. The freehold ownership means there are no ground lease concerns.
The combination of four bedrooms, modern amenities, solar panels, and a west-facing garden makes this property particularly suitable for families looking for a ready-to-move-in home in a convenient location.
