- Given the construction year, there is a risk of asbestos presence, and the buyer must cover the costs and responsibilities for any remediation required by law.
Description
Located in the village of Ooltgensplaat, this property at Esdoornstraat 24 presents an opportunity for those willing to invest time and effort into a home. This end terrace house, constructed in 1954, offers a solid foundation for starters, young families, or individuals with a knack for renovation. The residence sits on a plot of approximately 162 square meters and provides a living area of around 67 square meters. It is a dwelling that invites personalization, featuring a layout that can be adapted to modern living standards while retaining its original character.
Upon entering the home, visitors step into a hallway that serves as the central artery of the ground floor. The hallway is fitted with a laminate floor, providing a neutral base that can easily be adapted to different styles. This area grants access to the separate toilet facility, the staircase leading to the first floor, and a practical under-stairs cupboard. This cupboard is a valuable asset for storage, helping to keep the main living areas clutter-free and organized.
Adjacent to the hallway is the kitchen. Described as a simple, closed kitchen with a wall arrangement, it currently provides a functional space but is ripe for updating. The kitchen offers direct access to the rear garden, allowing for easy outdoor dining or ventilation during cooking. For a buyer looking to put their own stamp on a property, this space offers a blank canvas to create a modern culinary area suited to their specific tastes and requirements.
The living room is a notable feature of the ground floor, designed as a through-lounge that allows natural light to permeate the space. Windows are positioned on the front, side, and rear facades, ensuring a bright atmosphere throughout the day. The room is equipped with manual sun blinds, offering control over light and privacy on warmer days. The laminate flooring continues here, contributing to a cohesive feel on the ground level.
Moving to the first floor, the landing provides access to the three bedrooms and the bathroom. This floor is designed to accommodate family life, with the sleeping quarters offering practical dimensions. Two of the bedrooms benefit from fixed wardrobes, enhancing the storage capacity within the rooms themselves. One of the bedrooms is currently configured to accommodate a washing machine connection, adding a layer of convenience for laundry management. The bathroom, accessible from the landing, is fitted with a shower and a washbasin cabinet. It is a functional space that, much like the kitchen, offers potential for modernization.
Storage needs are well catered for in this property. In addition to the wardrobes and stair cupboard, the attic space serves as a significant storage area. This floored storage attic is accessible via a loft ladder on the landing. It houses the central heating boiler, a Nefit Proline combi-boiler from 2008. This boiler provides the heating and hot water for the home. The presence of a floored attic makes it a practical area for storing seasonal items or luggage.
The exterior of the property complements the indoor living space. The backyard is situated on the northwest, a position that allows residents to enjoy the sun during the latter part of the day and into the evening. The garden includes a back entrance, adding convenience for access without going through the house. A particularly valuable feature of this property is the double stone storage located in the garden. These structures are connected indirectly and offer ample room for storing bicycles, gardening tools, or pursuing hobbies. The presence of not one, but two stone outbuildings is a significant advantage for storage needs.
From a technical perspective, the home has an energy label D. It features partial double glazing and wall insulation, which contribute to the energy efficiency of the building. The roof is a saddle roof covered with tiles. The property is connected to public utilities and offers public parking facilities in the quiet residential area where it is located.
It is important to note the specific conditions under which this property is being sold. The sale is an execution sale by the corporation Oost West Wonen, referred to as 'uitponding'. This means the seller has not occupied the property and consequently cannot provide a list of movable goods or a standard buyer questionnaire regarding the property's condition. As such, the buyer accepts the property in its current state, with all visible and invisible defects at their own risk. The sales agreement will include a clause stating that the seller is not liable for the foundation, floors, piping, or moisture issues, acknowledging the property's age.
Furthermore, the buyer agrees to cooperate and participate in any block maintenance that Oost West Wonen might undertake on gutters, roofs, or other elements in the future. Another legal condition included in the purchase agreement is a right of first repurchase for Oost West Wonen. This grants the seller the option to buy the property back within a certain timeframe and under specific conditions, a standard clause in sales by this type of corporation. Additionally, a self-occupancy clause applies, meaning the buyer intends to use the property as their primary residence.
Given the construction year of 1954, there is a possibility that asbestos-containing materials were used in the building. The buyer is expected to be aware of this and bears the responsibility for any removal in accordance with legislation, indemnifying the seller against any liability related to asbestos. The transfer of ownership will take place at Benschop & Figee Network Notaries. The plot size is an indication, and the exact measurements will be determined by a cadastral survey, the costs of which, approximately 1000 euros, are to be borne by the buyer. The measurements of the living space are based on the NEN2580 standard, intended to provide an indication of usage surface, although slight differences in measurement outcomes cannot be entirely excluded.
Esdoornstraat 24 represents a chance to acquire a home with a backyard and significant storage in a residential setting. It is a property that requires a proactive approach regarding maintenance and updates, suitable for buyers who are not deterred by a project and wish to create a personalized living environment in Ooltgensplaat. With three bedrooms and a functional layout, it serves as a practical base for those entering the housing market or looking for a manageable family home with potential for growth.
