Upsides

  • Excellent village location within walking distance of primary schools, the railway station, and the village center, with additional proximity to beach, dunes, and sports facilities.
  • Comprehensive renovation completed in 2019 combined with very recent updates including roof renewal in 2022, exterior painting in 2024, and bathroom renovation in 2025, indicating well-maintained condition.
  • Practical family layout with four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a separate study across three living floors, accommodating the needs of a growing household.
  • Authentic character features preserved including stained glass windows, en-suite sliding doors with rod dividers, herringbone parquet, and wide wooden floorboards, blended with modern amenities such as underfloor heating in bathrooms.
  • Southwest-facing front garden with high hedge providing privacy and afternoon sun exposure, complemented by a sheltered backyard with morning sun and a freestanding shed with electricity and storage loft.

Downsides

  • Energy label D, which is below current standards and may indicate higher energy costs or the need for further insulation upgrades to improve efficiency.
  • No private parking or garage on the property, relying solely on public street parking which can be competitive in desirable village locations.
  • The central heating boiler dates from 2012 and while functional, is approaching an age where replacement may be warranted within the coming years.
  • Relatively small plot size of 234 square meters for the asking price of over 1.3 million euros, resulting in a high price per square meter of approximately 8,893 euros.
  • Discrepancy in stated construction year between the description (1933) and the features section (1934), which while minor, may warrant clarification.

Description

This semi-detached family residence is situated in a highly desirable location in the village of Bloemendaal. The property benefits from close proximity to multiple primary schools, the NS railway station, and the charming village center with its variety of shops and restaurants. The surrounding area offers easy access to the beach, dunes, and various sports facilities, making it an attractive option for families seeking a convenient and active lifestyle.

Built in the 1930s, the house has undergone a comprehensive renovation in 2019 that successfully preserved its original character while updating the property to meet contemporary standards of comfort and functionality. The facade and exterior maintain the authentic appearance typical of the period, while the interior has been thoughtfully modernized throughout.

The ground floor welcomes you through an entrance hall that includes a wardrobe area and a modern toilet room with a small sink. The main living area features an L-shaped en-suite living room equipped with traditional sliding doors with rod dividers, a functioning fireplace, and a herringbone parquet floor. These elements combine to create a warm and inviting atmosphere with abundant natural light. The half-open kitchen is fitted with an induction cooktop and various built-in appliances, providing a practical space for daily meal preparation while maintaining a connection to the living area. The kitchen and hallway benefit from underfloor heating, adding to the comfort level on this floor.

The first floor is accessed via a landing that showcases a beautiful stained glass window, a characteristic detail that reflects the period of construction. This floor contains a study or home office and two well-proportioned bedrooms. One of the bedrooms features French doors that open onto a balcony, allowing for outdoor seating or simply enjoying fresh air. Both bedrooms include built-in closet space for practical storage solutions. The modern bathroom on this level is equipped with a walk-in shower, a toilet, a double vanity unit, and underfloor heating. The entire first floor is finished with wide wooden floorboards that add warmth and character to the spaces.

The second floor houses two additional spacious bedrooms, both featuring knee walls that provide useful storage alcoves. A second full bathroom on this floor includes a walk-in shower, a bathtub, a toilet, connections for laundry appliances, and underfloor heating. This configuration makes the property well-suited for larger families or those who frequently host guests, as the two bathrooms distribute the morning routines effectively among household members.

A practical attic storage space is located above the second floor, housing the central heating boiler and the hot water boiler. This area provides additional storage for seasonal items or luggage.

The outdoor spaces have been designed to offer privacy and functionality. The front garden faces southwest and is screened from the street by a tall green hedge, creating a secluded outdoor area that catches the afternoon and evening sun. The backyard is sheltered and receives morning sun, providing a pleasant spot for breakfast outdoors. A freestanding wooden shed with electricity and a practical loft space offers secure storage for garden equipment, bicycles, or other items. The total plot measures 234 square meters, with the front garden specifically noted as 96 square meters with dimensions of 12 meters in depth and 8 meters in width.

The property has received several notable updates in recent years. Following the full renovation in 2019, the roof and roof battens were renewed in 2022, the exterior painting was completed in 2024, and one of the bathrooms was updated in 2025. These recent improvements indicate attentive maintenance and reduce the likelihood of immediate major expenses for the new owner.

In terms of energy efficiency, the property has an energy label D. Insulation measures include roof insulation, floor insulation in the living room, and largely double glazing. The heating system consists of a Nefit Topline HR30 gas-fired combination boiler from 2012, supplemented by the open fireplace and partial underfloor heating. While the energy label is not at the highest current standard, the insulation improvements and relatively modern boiler provide a reasonable baseline that could potentially be enhanced further over time.

Parking is available on the public street in the immediate vicinity of the property. The property is classified as partially furnished, though the extent of included furnishings would need to be confirmed during a viewing.

The property is offered at an asking price of 1,325,000 euros, which translates to approximately 8,893 euros per square meter of living space. Transfer is available by mutual agreement, allowing flexibility in the moving timeline.

With four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a study, and a total of six rooms spread across three living floors, this residence offers ample space for a family to grow and settle comfortably. The combination of period character details, recent renovations, and a location within walking distance of essential amenities makes this a noteworthy property in the Bloemendaal housing market.
