Description
Welcome to Esdoornlaan 35 in Rijnsburg, a spacious and well maintained family home situated in the quiet and child friendly neighborhood of Frederiksoord Zuid. This delightful terraced house offers comfortable living with a generous 108 square meters of living space spread across three floors, set on a 132 square meter plot. The property features three bedrooms, a modern open kitchen, a bright living room, and a particularly attractive south facing backyard that borders directly on the water, providing a peaceful and scenic outdoor space.
The location of this property is one of its strongest attributes. Situated in a low traffic, child friendly street, the home provides a safe and tranquil environment for families. The immediate vicinity includes various playgrounds, schools, sports clubs, and shops for daily groceries, ensuring all essential amenities are within easy reach. The charming center of Rijnsburg and the De Hoftuin shopping center are both easily accessible, offering a wider range of retail and dining options.
For commuters and those who enjoy exploring the region, the accessibility is excellent. The A44 and N206 highways can be reached within minutes, connecting you efficiently to cities such as Leiden, The Hague, and Amsterdam. Additionally, Leiden Central Station and the beach at Katwijk are both approximately 15 minutes away by bicycle, making this location ideal for those who appreciate both urban conveniences and coastal recreation.
Upon arriving at the property, you are greeted by a neatly tiled front garden that leads to the entrance. The ground floor layout is both practical and inviting. The hallway provides access to the meter cupboard and flows naturally into the living area. The living room is notably bright, benefiting from large windows on both the front and rear elevations that allow natural light to flood the space throughout the day. The entire ground floor is finished with neat laminate flooring, creating a cohesive and modern appearance.
The modern open kitchen is located at the front of the property and comes fully equipped with a range of built in appliances, including an induction hob, extractor hood, fridge freezer combination, and dishwasher. This thoughtful arrangement makes cooking and entertaining a pleasure, with the open layout allowing the cook to remain connected with family and guests in the living area.
Adjacent to the living room, you will find a hallway leading to a separate toilet and the staircase to the upper floors. From the living room, sliding doors equipped with HR++ glass open onto the backyard. This outdoor space has been thoughtfully landscaped and offers a wonderful retreat. Positioned on the south side, the garden enjoys abundant sunshine from early morning until late in the season, making it an ideal spot for outdoor dining, relaxation, or simply enjoying the view over the water. The combination of sun and waterfront creates a uniquely pleasant atmosphere that enhances the overall living experience.
Moving to the first floor, the landing provides access to a storage cupboard, two spacious bedrooms, and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is particularly noteworthy as it comes fitted with air conditioning, ensuring comfort during warmer months. The bathroom is well appointed with a vanity unit, toilet, and a walk in shower, providing all the necessary facilities for daily use.
The second floor reveals the third spacious bedroom and a practical storage area that houses the central heating system. This floor is finished with carpet flooring, adding warmth and comfort underfoot. The layout of this level offers flexibility, with the storage space potentially adaptable for various uses depending on the needs of the household.
In terms of energy efficiency, the property holds a C energy label, indicating a reasonable level of insulation and energy performance. The home benefits from double glazing and wall insulation, contributing to reduced energy consumption and lower utility costs. The heating and hot water are supplied by a Remeha gas fired combination boiler installed in 2017, which is owned by the property rather than rented, an important consideration for ongoing maintenance costs.
Additional features of note include mechanical ventilation throughout the property, exterior sun blinds for the warmer months, and TV cable connections. The upper window frames are all made of synthetic material, which requires minimal maintenance and offers good durability against the elements.
The property also includes an attached stone storage shed, providing practical space for bicycles, garden equipment, or other storage needs. Parking is available via public parking in the surrounding area.
The plot measures 132 square meters in total, with the backyard alone comprising approximately 47 square meters, measuring 8.75 meters deep and 5.37 meters wide. The living volume of the property is 434 cubic meters, giving a real sense of space and airiness throughout the home.
Built in 1977, this established property has been well maintained over the years and offers a solid foundation for comfortable family living. The combination of its practical layout, modern amenities, and exceptional location makes it an attractive option for starters and young families looking to establish themselves in one of Rijnsburg's most pleasant neighborhoods.
