Spacious Family Corner Home with Modern Extension and South-Facing Garden in Goes
Key Features
Upsides
- The 2024 extension creates an impressive 12.34 meter long living space with a modern skylight and aluminum folding doors, significantly enhancing the ground floor layout and natural light intake.
- Five bedrooms across three floors provide ample space for families, with the second floor also featuring air conditioning for climate control during warmer periods.
- The insulated external building of 21 square meters with electricity, heating, and water offers versatile use as a home office, workshop, studio, or practice space.
- Energy efficiency features including Energy Label B, comprehensive insulation, underfloor heating on all floors, and 10 solar panels contribute to lower energy costs and comfortable living.
- The south-facing garden and child-friendly location near schools, shops, sports facilities, and public transport make this a practical choice for families.
Downsides
- The combination boiler (Remeha Avanta 28 c) dates from 2011, making it approximately 13 years old and potentially approaching the end of its typical lifespan, which may require replacement in the near future.
- With five bedrooms but only one bathroom and one separate toilet, the bathroom facilities may feel insufficient for a large family using all bedrooms.
- The garden size of 47 square meters is relatively modest for a family home, limiting outdoor play space for children or extensive gardening activities.
- The property was originally built in 1987, and despite modern updates, the underlying construction and potential hidden maintenance issues typical of homes of this age should be considered.
- The plot size of 166 square meters provides limited expansion possibilities and outdoor space compared to newer developments or detached properties in similar price ranges.
Description
This move-in ready family residence is situated on Golden Meirstraat in the city of Goes, offering a surprisingly spacious living environment with a modern extension completed in 2024.

The current owners have made significant improvements to the home, resulting in a comfortable and contemporary living space suitable for families looking for both practicality and modern conveniences.
The ground floor welcomes you through an entrance hall that provides access to a toilet room and the staircase leading to the upper floors. A glass design door leads into the main living area, which has been thoughtfully extended to create an impressive living space measuring approximately 12.34 meters in length. At the front of the ground floor, there is a semi-open kitchen equipped with various built-in appliances, allowing for convenient meal preparation while maintaining a connection to the living area.
The extension at the rear of the property, completed in 2024, features a modern skylight that floods the interior with natural light. Aluminum folding doors provide a seamless transition between the indoor living space and the outdoor garden area.

This versatile structure is equipped with electricity, heating, and running water, making it suitable for use as a workshop, a home office, a practice room for professionals, an art studio, a hobby space, or simply additional storage.
