Spacious Modern Family Home with Extended Living Space and Private Garden
Key Features
Upsides
- The property has been significantly renovated and modernized with a new kitchen (2019), extended living space, upgraded bathroom, and second floor with roof height increase, providing a turnkey family home.
- Energy efficiency with an A energy label, insulation features including roof insulation, partially double glazing and floor insulation, making it environmentally friendly and cost-effective to run.
- The deep backyard with mature greenery and privacy, made possible by purchasing additional municipal land, offers exceptional outdoor space for a terraced house.
- Flexible bedroom configuration with two large bedrooms on the first floor that could easily be converted back to three, plus two additional bedrooms on the second floor.
- Prime location in a quiet, child-friendly courtyard with amenities nearby including schools, train station, shopping center, and quick access to Harderwijk city center and major roads.
Downsides
- The property is a terraced house, which typically means less privacy compared to detached or semi-detached properties and potentially more noise from neighbors.
- The backyard faces southeast, which means it may not receive sunlight throughout the entire day, particularly missing evening sun during summer months.
- While the property has been modernized, it was originally built in 1981, which means some aspects of the original construction may still be present despite renovations.
- The property has only one bathroom for potentially 4 bedrooms, which could be insufficient for larger families.
- Parking is only available in the public area rather than having a dedicated driveway or garage, which might be inconvenient for some households.
Description
This modern family home located on Hondsdrafmeen in Harderwijk offers 139 square meters of living space in a child-friendly neighborhood. The terraced house was originally built in 1981 but has been significantly renovated and modernized in recent years, resulting in a stylish family home with an energy label A rating.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into an extra spacious hallway. Thanks to previous renovations, this area has become a bright and practical entrance with plenty of space for coats, shoes, strollers and school bags, which is particularly convenient for busy families.
The kitchen was completely renewed in 2019 and features a modern design with a cooking island and built-in appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is sufficient space for a large dining table, creating a central area where dining, socializing and homework can naturally come together.
The living room is located at the back of the house and has been extended. Due to its wide design and sliding doors with large window sections, natural light flows in abundantly. A cozy insert fireplace provides warmth and character, while there is more than enough space for a large corner sofa, a play area for children or a dedicated home office or reading corner.
On the first floor, you will find two particularly spacious bedrooms, both equipped with practical wardrobe walls. Originally there were three bedrooms, and this layout can easily be restored if additional children's or work rooms are desired.
The bathroom is modern, fresh and equipped with all conveniences. It features a bathtub for relaxing evenings, a spacious walk-in shower for quicker use, a double sink, a second toilet and a skylight for natural light and ventilation.
The second floor has also been completely renovated. Thanks to the roof height increase and the wide dormer window, a full extra living level has been created with two additional bedrooms. This space is perfect for growing children, guests or a home office. The finish like the rest of the house is sleek, modern and move-in ready.
On the intermediate landing, space has been cleverly created for the washing machine and dryer, and via a loft ladder, you can reach a practical attic storage for items you prefer to keep out of sight. Additionally, the stone storage at the front provides ample space for bicycles, toys and tools.
The property stands on a 157 square meter plot and is located in a quiet, child-friendly courtyard. Children can play safely outdoors while you can keep an eye on them from home. What makes the backyard particularly special is that a piece of municipal land was purchased in the past, making the garden remarkably deep and offering surprisingly much outdoor space. The view of mature greenery and tall trees provides a wonderfully sheltered and free location with ample privacy.
The location is also favorable. Schools, the train station and the neighborhood shopping center are nearby, and the city center of Harderwijk and the roads are quickly accessible.
In summary, this is a modern family home with atmosphere, space and comfort in a place where you will immediately feel at home.
The property has 4 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, with a total of 5 rooms. The energy label is A, and it has various insulation features including roof insulation, partially double glazing and floor insulation. Heating and hot water are provided by an Intergas (gas-fired combi boiler from 2016).
The backyard has an area of 58 square meters (11.5 meters deep and 5 meters wide) and is located on the southeast, accessible via a back entrance. Parking is available in the public area.
