Charming 1920s Detached Home with Sunny Southwest Garden
Key Features
Description
This charming detached house from the 1920s is located in a quiet street in Wormerveer and offers a pleasant combination of historical character and modern living comfort. Upon entering the property, visitors immediately notice the attention to detail that has been given to the interior. The living room feels warm and inviting, featuring a distinctive bay window with stained glass that adds a touch of period authenticity to the space. Between the living room and dining area, there is a characteristic en-suite cabinet with stained glass doors, a detail that perfectly matches the character of this 1924 built home.
Despite the historical elements, the property has been thoroughly modernized to meet contemporary standards. The floor on the ground level features underfloor heating that was installed in 2022, providing comfortable warmth throughout the colder months. The walls have been finished with clean lines and the painting work is well maintained. The staircase has been updated with covered treads, contributing to the fresh and modern appearance of the interior.
The living room flows seamlessly into the dining area at the rear of the property. This space offers ample room for long dinners or social gatherings with friends and family. Large sliding doors connect the interior with the exterior, and when the weather permits, these can be opened to create a natural transition between inside and outside living. The dining area receives plenty of natural light and offers pleasant views of the garden.
The kitchen was completely renovated in 2022 and provides a functional space for cooking enthusiasts. Behind the kitchen, there is a surprisingly spacious storage area that offers more than just extra storage capacity. On the left side, there is room for provisions, bicycles, or hobby equipment, while the right side accommodates the washing machine and dryer. Additionally, this storage space features a practical loft for additional storage needs.
The first floor contains three bedrooms, all of good dimensions. The modern bathroom is fully equipped with a shower, toilet, and vanity unit. The front bedroom has a charming balcony where the doors can be opened on pleasant days to enjoy the fresh air and views of the quiet street.
The attic floor is described as a pleasant surprise, as it has been converted into a full bedroom with comfortable proportions. This space is suitable for use as a main bedroom, home office, or guest room, providing flexibility for various household compositions.
The rear garden faces southwest, allowing residents to enjoy sunlight for most of the day. A notable feature is that an adjacent piece of land was purchased in the past, making the garden larger than one might expect for a property of this size. The garden measures 30 square meters with a depth of 7.92 meters and a width of 3.78 meters. This extra space allows for multiple seating areas, enabling residents to find a comfortable spot in either sun or shade at any time of day.
The property is situated on a quiet cul-de-sac with predominantly local traffic, ensuring peace and privacy for residents. Despite the tranquil setting, the location is conveniently central. Daily amenities such as grocery stores, schools, and sports facilities are within easy reach, making this an attractive location for both first-time buyers and families.
The train station of Wormerveer is located at a short distance, providing quick connections to Amsterdam, Alkmaar, and the surrounding region. Major roads are also easily accessible for those who travel by car.
The combination of a quiet residential street and proximity to the Zaan river, restaurants, and various recreational opportunities makes this location particularly appealing. Residents can enjoy the vibrancy of nearby amenities while returning to the peacefulness of their home environment.
In terms of technical specifications, the property has a living area of 94 square meters, a plot size of 105 square meters, and a volume of 371 cubic meters. The roof is a mansard type covered with tiles. The property has an energy label D and features various insulation measures including roof insulation, double glazing, HR glass, wall insulation, and floor insulation.
Heating is provided by a Remeha gas-fired combination boiler from 2015, which is owned by the current owner, supplemented by partial underfloor heating on the ground floor. The property is connected to fiberglass internet and has TV cable connections. Parking is available on public roads in the vicinity.
The asking price is 450,000 euros, which translates to approximately 4,787 euros per square meter of living space. The property is available for viewing through the listing agent, and prospective buyers are advised to engage their own NVM purchase agent to represent their interests during the transaction process.
