Description
This end terraced house is located on Edelstenenbaan in the IJsselveld-West district of IJsselstein. The property has a living area of approximately 128 square meters and is situated on a plot of 152 square meters. The house is classified as a fixer-upper, which means it offers buyers the opportunity to renovate and customize the property according to their own preferences and needs.
The ground floor features a living room of around 34 square meters. Large windows allow natural daylight to enter the space, creating a bright and open atmosphere. The room provides enough space for both a seating area and a dining table. The kitchen is finished in a light color scheme and includes a spacious sink, ample cabinet space, and sufficient countertop area. The layout of the ground floor allows for interaction between the kitchen and living areas.
The first floor contains three bedrooms with sizes ranging from approximately 9 to 16 square meters. This configuration provides flexibility for a family, home office space, or a hobby room. The bathroom on this floor has a white color scheme and is equipped with a shower and a sink. Additionally, there is a separate toilet on this level for added convenience.
The second floor houses a fourth bedroom, expanding the sleeping accommodation options. This floor also has a practical landing area with connections for laundry appliances, which can be arranged as a utility room or additional storage space as desired.
The outdoor area includes a garden facing east, measuring approximately 60 square meters according to the property features. The garden offers space for a seating area, play area for children, or gardening. A free-standing stone shed is present in the garden, providing storage for bicycles, tools, and garden equipment. The shed has electricity but no cavity wall insulation.
Parking is available on the public street in the immediate vicinity of the property.
The IJsselveld-West neighborhood is characterized by quiet streets, residential courtyards, and abundant greenery. The shopping center Clinckhoeff is within walking distance, offering daily necessities under one roof. The historic city center of IJsselstein, with its shops, restaurants, cafes, theater, and cinema, can be reached on foot or by bicycle within minutes.
For those seeking broader cultural and entertainment options, the city of Utrecht is nearby. A tram stop is located close to the property, providing direct connections to Nieuwegein, Utrecht Central Station, and Science Park Utrecht without transfers. By car, the A2, A12, and A27 highways are easily accessible.
The property was built in 1973 according to the official features, though the listing description mentions 1997. The energy label is C, and the property has double glazing for insulation. Heating and hot water are provided by a gas-fired combi boiler that is owned by the property. The roof is a gable roof covered with tiles.

This corner house position provides additional light and space compared to mid-terrace properties. The practical layout and four bedrooms make the property suitable for families looking for a home they can renovate to their own taste. The location combines the quiet character of a residential neighborhood with good accessibility to urban amenities and transportation networks.
The asking price is 425,000 euros, which translates to approximately 3,320 euros per square meter of living space. The property is available and transfer is to be negotiated. The cadastral designation is IJSSELSTEIN D 4628, with full ownership.
The property includes front, side, and rear gardens, with the rear garden measuring 10 meters deep and 6 meters wide. The eastern orientation means the garden receives morning and early afternoon sun.
Potential buyers should be aware that as a designated fixer-upper, the property will require renovation work. The exact scope and cost of necessary improvements should be assessed during a viewing.

Early 20th Century
The build year (1973 or 1997) is well past the early 20th century.
Post War Functional
There is a contradiction in the listing: the description says 1997, but the features section says 1973. If 1973, it fits this style; if 1997, it does not.
Modernist
If built in 1997, it represents a standard late-20th-century functional style. If 1973, it's more post-war. Neither is distinctly 'modernist' in an architectural sense.
