Spacious 1930s corner house with unique possibilities and sunny garden

This exceptional family home located at Gijsbrecht van Amstelstraat in the Het Rode Dorp neighborhood of Hilversum offers a unique combination of space, light, and character. Built in 1937, this property presents itself as a rare find on the market, providing ample room for a large family and various possibilities for customization. The house is situated at the Gooise Vaart and directly opposite the Corversbos, offering a green and scenic view from the front. The location is highly practical, being close to various schools, the city center of Hilversum, and major roads for excellent accessibility.

Upon entering the property, one is welcomed into a hall that provides access to the toilet and the staircase to the souterrain. The ground floor features a spacious and light-filled living and dining room that serves as the heart of the home. This area is equipped with a parquet floor and benefits from two large bay windows (erkers) that allow natural light to flood in. From the living room, French doors open up to the outdoor space, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is situated on this floor as well and is connected to a utility room, offering practical space for laundry and additional storage.

A significant feature of this property is the expansive souterrain. This multifunctional space covers nearly sixty square meters and includes a kitchen unit. The room has previously been utilized as an atelier, making it an inspiring space for those who work from home. However, its potential extends far beyond a workspace. It is exceptionally well-suited as a large hobby room, a playroom for children, or a general recreation and entertainment area for a large family. The additional square footage provided by the souterrain greatly enhances the functionality of the home, offering a separate retreat that can be used for a variety of purposes depending on the needs of the residents.

The first floor of the house accommodates the sleeping quarters. The landing provides access to a separate toilet. There are three bedrooms on this level. The main bedroom is located at the rear of the house and features French doors that open to a balcony, as well as built-in cupboards for storage. A second large bedroom also includes built-in closet space. The third bedroom is smaller in size but still functional, suitable for a nursery, guest room, or home office. The bathroom on this floor is fully equipped with a bathtub, a fixed washbasin, and a separate shower, catering to the daily needs of the household.

The attic floor, or zolderverdieping, is currently arranged as one large room featuring a kitchen unit and a living area. It includes a sleeping vide located in the ridge (nok) of the roof, creating a unique and atmospheric sleeping space. The layout of this floor offers immense potential for the future. With a thoughtful redesign, this level could easily be transformed to accommodate two or three additional bedrooms and a second bathroom. This flexibility makes the property highly adaptable, allowing future owners to configure the space to perfectly match their lifestyle, whether they need more bedrooms for a growing family or desire a separate guest suite.

The exterior of the property is equally impressive. The house sits on a plot of 364 square meters. There is a large front and side garden covering 180 square meters, which is located on the sunny west. This orientation ensures that the outdoor space can be enjoyed throughout the afternoon and evening. The garden offers a free view and a high degree of privacy, making it a serene retreat. A detached wooden storage shed is available on the grounds for storing garden tools or bicycles.

Parking is convenient and stress-free with a parking spot on the private grounds. The current setup allows for easy expansion of the driveway to accommodate two vehicles, a valuable feature in a residential area. The property is classified as a corner house (hoekwoning), which contributes to the extra light and side garden space.

In terms of technical specifications, the house has an energy label C. The insulation includes double glazing, wall insulation, and secondary windows (voorzetramen). Heating and hot water are provided by a Remeha Calenta 40c combi boiler, which is gas-fired and dates from 2013. The property is offered for € 825,000 costs buyer (kosten koper). This home represents an ideal base for a family looking for a spacious residence with the possibility to put their own stamp on the interior, located in a pleasant and accessible part of Hilversum.
