Light and spacious apartment with fantastic sea and dune views
Key Features
Description
This apartment is located on the fourth and highest floor of the Eisenhowercomplex in the coastal town of Egmond aan Zee. The property has a total living area of 93 square meters and is classified as a three room apartment with two bedrooms. The building was originally constructed in 1972 and has since undergone various improvements to enhance its energy efficiency and overall comfort.
The living room is a particularly notable feature of this apartment, measuring nearly 30 square meters. Thanks to the large window sections, the room receives abundant natural light throughout the day. From the living room, as well as from the west facing balcony, residents can enjoy an unobstructed view of the sea and the main beach entrance. This free view over the water is one of the most distinctive characteristics of the property and remains available regardless of the season.
The kitchen is accessible both from the living room and from the entrance hall, configured in a half open layout. This arrangement allows for flexible use of the space, whether for everyday cooking or for entertaining guests. The kitchen connects seamlessly with the living area while still maintaining a degree of separation.
The apartment contains two bedrooms. The master bedroom is generously proportioned at 20 square meters and includes a built in closet, providing ample storage space for clothing and personal items. The second bedroom offers access to the south facing balcony, which overlooks the dunes of the Noordhollands Duinreservaat. The view from this balcony extends nearly as far as IJmuiden on clear days. Having two balconons facing different directions means that residents can choose a sunny spot or a sheltered location depending on weather conditions and time of day.
The bathroom is equipped with a shower and a vanity unit with washbasin. A separate toilet is located nearby, adding convenience for daily use. Additionally, there is an interior storage room that accommodates a washing machine connection and provides space for storing household items and laundry appliances.
One of the practical advantages of this apartment is the presence of a private garage and a separate storage room on the ground floor. Both are accessible from within the building, meaning residents do not need to go outside to reach their vehicle. The garage has an electric door and electrical connections. This indoor access is especially valuable during rainy or windy weather, which is common in a coastal location.
The building is equipped with a lift, making the fourth floor easily accessible for residents of all ages. The listing specifically mentions that the apartment is well suited for seniors or for those seeking age appropriate living arrangements. The combination of the lift, the indoor accessible garage, and the single level layout of the apartment contributes to this livability.
In recent years, the homeowners association has invested in sustainability measures for the complex. The roof has been insulated, the exterior walls have received insulation, and double glazing has been installed throughout. Solar panels have been placed on the roof to generate electricity for the common areas of the building. These improvements have resulted in an energy label B rating. The window frames are made of PVC, which requires minimal maintenance compared to traditional wooden frames. Mechanical ventilation is present in the apartment.
The heating and hot water are provided by a Remeha gas fired combination boiler, which is owned by the current owner rather than rented. This means the new owner will not have to take over a boiler rental contract.
The monthly service costs for the apartment are 385 euros. These costs cover the maintenance of common areas, the building insurance, and contributions to the reserve fund. The homeowners association appears to be well organized, with registration at the Chamber of Commerce, annual general meetings, a maintenance plan, and an established reserve fund.
The location of the apartment offers a combination of natural surroundings and village amenities. The boulevard of Egmond aan Zee is nearby, and the beach and dunes are within walking distance. The village center with its shops and terrace cafes is also close by, providing daily conveniences without the need for a car. For those who do drive, the city of Alkmaar can be reached in approximately 15 minutes by car. Public parking is available in the area, with parking permits required in some zones.
The listing notes that the overall finish of the apartment is somewhat dated. This means that while the property is functional and well maintained, a new owner may wish to update elements such as the kitchen, bathroom, or floor coverings to match contemporary preferences. This also presents an opportunity for buyers to personalize the space according to their own taste.
The property is being offered at 615,000 euros costs koper, which translates to approximately 6,613 euros per square meter of living space. The transfer costs and any applicable taxes are the responsibility of the buyer. The exact date of availability can be discussed with the seller, though the listing indicates that a relatively quick transfer is possible.
In summary, this apartment offers a combination of views, location, and practical features that make it particularly appealing for those seeking a permanent residence in a coastal environment. The sea views, the two balconons, the private garage, and the lift access together create a package that is well suited to comfortable living in Egmond aan Zee.
