Spacious Corner Home with Surprisingly Large Front Garden

Located on the Frans L. Blomlaan in the Florabuurt neighborhood of Leerdam, this spacious corner house from 1977 offers a comfortable living environment on a generous plot of 290 square meters. The property presents itself as a family home with various possibilities for different living arrangements and working from home situations.

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed in the hallway where the meter cupboard, a guest toilet, the staircase to the first floor, and a practical storage closet are situated. The hallway provides access to the living area and the utility room. The living room is positioned at the rear of the property and benefits from large windows that allow for pleasant natural light and a nice view of the backyard. There is ample space to create both a generous seating area and a dining area.

The open kitchen is located at the front of the house and features a modern design. It is equipped with a double sink with mixer tap, a refrigerator, a microwave, a dishwasher installed at a comfortable height, an induction cooktop with an extractor hood, and considerable storage space in cabinets and drawers, including a LeMans storage system. This setup makes the kitchen practical for daily use and cooking.

From the hallway, the utility room is accessible, which serves as an ideal space for additional storage and houses the washing machine and dryer connections. What makes this property particularly interesting is the multifunctional room at the front of the ground floor. Currently used as a hobby room, this space could also serve well as an atelier or a home office. This flexibility adds to the appeal of the property for those who work from home or have specific hobby requirements.

The first floor features a landing that provides access to three bedrooms and the bathroom. Two of the bedrooms are situated at the rear of the property, while the third bedroom is located at the front, adjacent to the bathroom. The bathroom has been partially renovated in 2022, with the walk-in shower and the vanity unit being renewed at that time. The bathroom is spaciously designed and includes a bathtub, a walk-in shower, a toilet, and a vanity unit with two sinks.

The second floor is reached via a fixed staircase. On this floor, there is a landing with storage space and a sink with a mixer tap. The entire floor currently functions as one large room that is used as a work and hobby space. Given the dimensions of this space, it would be relatively straightforward to create two separate rooms here, which would increase the total number of bedrooms to five if desired. This adaptability makes the property suitable for growing families or those who require additional room for specific purposes.

The outdoor spaces of this property are a notable feature. The corner location results in a remarkably large front garden. In 2024, this front garden was completely redesigned with a varied layout that includes paving, gravel, a raised planter box featuring among other things a palm tree, and pleasant sightlines to the greenery in the surroundings. A canopy has also been installed in the front garden, providing a sheltered spot to sit and enjoy the outdoor space. The garden continues along the side of the property to the rear garden, where another terrace and a pond can be found. The rear garden is somewhat smaller than the front garden but still offers a pleasant outdoor area. Fences are present on both sides of the rear garden.

An attached wooden storage building of 17 square meters is available, which is spacious enough for storing bicycles and other items. This storage unit has electricity. On the property itself, there is one parking space available, and additionally, there is sufficient parking space in the designated parking bays in the area.

The property has a living area of 141 square meters, an additional indoor space of 17 square meters (the storage building), and a building-related outdoor space of 13 square meters. The volume of the house is 481 cubic meters. The property has an energy label C and features full insulation, a gas-fired combi boiler from Bosch dating from 2010 (owned), and partial underfloor heating in addition to central heating. Natural ventilation is present, and the property is connected to a fiberglass cable for internet. Exterior sun blinds are installed as well.
