Description
Located in the Wyckerpoort district of Maastricht, this terraced house presents an opportunity for buyers looking to modernize a property in a well-connected urban location. The residence is situated within walking distance of the Groene Loper, a prominent green corridor in Maastricht, as well as the main railway station. The neighborhood of Wyck and the historic city center are both easily accessible on foot, making this an attractive location for those who wish to live close to urban amenities.
The property benefits from a strategic position on the edge of Maastricht's center. Within minutes, residents can reach the station, various shopping facilities, bus stops, and the vibrant city center. The university and the MUMC+ hospital are also well accessible from this location. For those who travel by car, the main roads leading out of the city are conveniently reachable. The immediate surroundings offer numerous walking and cycling routes, allowing residents to enjoy the natural environment. Parking is available in the street through a permit system or paid parking.
The house was built in 1921 and features a pitched roof covered with tiles. It has a total living area of 104 square meters spread over three floors. The plot measures 115 square meters, and the total volume of the building is 368 cubic meters. The property includes an external storage space of 9 square meters in the form of a detached stone shed in the garden.
The ground floor layout begins with an entrance hall that leads to the living room. The kitchen is positioned at the rear of the house and connects openly to the living room, creating a spacious feel. The hall and kitchen have tiled floors, while the living room features laminate flooring. From the living room, an intermediate hall provides access to the toilet, the ground floor bathroom, and the staircase to the first floor.
The kitchen is arranged in a corner configuration and comes equipped with a four-burner ceramic hob, an electric oven, a dishwasher, an extractor hood, a refrigerator, and a freezer. The kitchen provides direct access to the backyard. The ground floor bathroom is fitted with a shower, a vanity unit, and a connection for a washing machine. The central heating boiler is also located in this bathroom.
The first floor is reached via the staircase and features a landing that provides access to three bedrooms. The entire first floor has laminate flooring throughout.
The second floor is accessible via a fixed staircase and contains a fourth bedroom. This room has a dormer window, a skylight, and practical storage space behind the knee walls.
The low-maintenance backyard is situated on the south side of the property, which means it benefits from plenty of sunlight throughout the day. The garden features a covered terrace and a stone storage shed. An alleyway at the rear provides access to the garden.
Regarding the technical specifications, the property has roof insulation and hardwood window frames with double glazing. Shutters are installed on the windows. The energy label is rated F, indicating that the energy efficiency of the property could be improved. The central heating system consists of a Nefit HR gas-fired combi boiler from 2016, which is included in the sale. The roof of the shed was completely renewed in 2018.
The property is offered for sale at an asking price of 289,000 euros, which translates to approximately 2,779 euros per square meter of living space. The asking price is exclusive of buyer costs (kosten koper), meaning that additional costs such as transfer tax and notary fees will apply on top of this amount.
The house is being sold in an as-is condition, and the listing explicitly states that the property needs to be modernized. This indicates that buyers should expect to invest in updating and improving the property to meet contemporary standards and personal preferences.
A NEN2580 measurement report is available for the property, which provides standardized measurements of the living areas. This report can give buyers a reliable indication of the exact dimensions of the various spaces.
Because the current owners have never lived in the property, a non-occupancy and age clause will be included in the sale agreement. This clause protects the sellers from liability regarding defects they may not be aware of due to not having lived in the property.
The purchase agreement will only come into effect after both buyer and seller have signed the written agreement, as required by Dutch law. The usual period for any agreed-upon suspensive conditions, such as financing, is four to six weeks after the verbal agreement.
A deposit or bank guarantee of ten percent of the purchase price is required. The buyer must provide this to the relevant notary within two weeks after the suspensive conditions have expired.
Buyers have the right to commission a structural inspection at their own expense or to consult other advisors to gain a good understanding of the condition of the property before completing the purchase. This is particularly relevant given that the property is described as needing modernization and is being sold as-is.
The information in this listing has been compiled with due care, though no liability is accepted for any incompleteness, inaccuracies, or the consequences thereof. All specified dimensions and areas are indicative.
