An dining area is situated at the rear of the living space, with a through-flow connection to the semi-open kitchen.
The kitchen is equipped with a cooking island and built-in appliances from the Neff brand, including a convection oven, microwave, refrigerator-freezer combination, and dishwasher.

The first floor of the property also benefits from impressive ceiling heights of 2.85 meters. Currently, this level contains two spacious bedrooms. The main bedroom is sufficiently large that it could be split to create a third bedroom if desired. This flexibility allows future owners to configure the space according to their specific needs.
The bathroom on this floor has been finished to a high standard and features a walk-in shower, a bathtub, a modern vanity unit with two basins, a heated mirror with integrated lighting, a floating toilet, a design radiator, and a built-in closet set into the tiled wall.

The rear garden measures 23 square meters, with dimensions of 4.5 meters in depth and 5 meters in width, and faces north.
The comprehensive renovation carried out in 2020 addressed numerous aspects of the property. The electrical system, meter cupboard, internet connection, central heating installation, and all water and drainage pipes were completely renewed during this renovation. The sanitary facilities and kitchen have been executed with high-quality materials from respected brands including Neff, Grohe, and Villeroy & Boch.
Heating is provided by a Remeha Tzerra gas-fired combination boiler from 2020, which is owned rather than rented. The property has a D energy label and is largely fitted with double glazing. Ventilation is natural, and the property has fiber optic cable and TV cable connections.

The listing mentions several potential expansion options for interested buyers, including the possibility of creating a roof terrace, extending the first floor, or adding a dormer window to increase living space. The estate agent indicates willingness to discuss these possibilities with prospective buyers.
The sale is subject to various standard sales clauses, including an old age clause (ouderdomsclausule), which is common for older properties. Delivery date is to be agreed upon between the parties.
