Tastefully Renovated 1930s Semi-Detached House with Garage and Large Garden
Key Features
Description
On the edge of the historic city center of Zwanenburg, this tastefully renovated 1930s semi-detached house is available for immediate occupancy. The property, known as a twee-onder-een-kap dwelling, has undergone a complete renovation in recent years, incorporating luxurious details throughout. The home is situated on a freehold plot of 312 square meters and offers a generous living space of 106 square meters. The location is highly desirable, providing a quiet village atmosphere while remaining within close proximity to major cities such as Amsterdam and Haarlem, as well as Schiphol Airport and various local amenities.
The exterior of the property features a large garden that has been thoughtfully divided into three distinct sections: an ornamental garden area, a comfortable seating and lounge area, and a practical work or DIY area which includes the garage. The garage itself is 16 square meters and is accessible directly from the inside of the house, offering convenient storage or parking space. The facades of the property have been cleaned, impregnated, and repointed, maintaining the character of the 1930s architecture while ensuring structural integrity. The property is fitted largely with new plastic window frames (kunststof kozijnen), contributing to the modern insulation standards.
Upon entering the property through the side entrance, you arrive in a hallway that provides access to the toilet room and a fountain. A passage from the hall leads to the garage where the central heating boiler is installed. The ground floor layout is designed for modern living, featuring an open-plan kitchen that flows seamlessly into the living area. The kitchen is a luxurious, custom-made space featuring a wall of built-in cupboards, a cooking island, and a pantry. It is equipped with a comprehensive suite of built-in appliances including a fridge-freezer combination, an induction hob with an integrated extractor hood, a dishwasher, and a wine climate cabinet, catering to all culinary needs.
The living room is a sfeervol (atmospheric) space characterized by a bay window (erker), a herringbone floor made of ceramic tiles, and underfloor heating. The room is fitted with shutters and a custom-made wall unit that includes a decorative fireplace (sierhaard), adding to the charm and comfort of the home. The ground floor benefits from an insulated foam concrete floor with underfloor heating, ensuring a comfortable indoor climate throughout the year. Additionally, the living room is equipped with air conditioning to provide cooling during warmer months.
Moving to the first floor, the landing provides access to two bedrooms located at the front of the house. These bedrooms benefit from air conditioning as well. The third bedroom is situated at the rear of the property and features a door leading to the flat roof, offering potential for a future roof terrace or simply an outdoor escape. The bathroom on this floor is modern and well-appointed, featuring a walk-in shower, a double vanity unit, a bathtub, a toilet, a heated towel rail, and underfloor heating. There is also a separate toilet on the ground floor for convenience.
The attic floor serves as a versatile zolderkamer (attic room) which is currently equipped with two Velux skylights, allowing for plenty of natural light. There is also storage space available behind the knee walls (knieschotten). The listing notes that there is potential to expand the attic floor by placing dormer windows (dakkapellen), which would increase the usable floor space significantly. The property has a total volume of 413 cubic meters.
In terms of technical specifications, the house has an energy label D. The heating and hot water are provided by a Vaillant gas-fired combi-boiler which was installed in 2020 and is owned by the property. The property is fully insulated and features double glazing. Mechanical ventilation and TV cables are present. The roof is a composite roof covered with tiles.
The location of IJweg 143 is central yet peaceful, situated on the edge of the old village center (oud dorp). It is within walking distance of a park, schools, and a shopping center. The property is near the Ringvaart, which has a footbridge leading to the train station and the Sugarcity area. Public transport options are excellent, with the NS station Halfweg-Zwanenburg nearby, as well as bus line 161 connecting Zwanenburg, Halfweg, and Hoofddorp, and bus line 80 connecting Zandvoort, Haarlem, Halfweg, and Amsterdam center.
For shopping and leisure, the Sugarcity area offers The Style Outlets, and the recreation area Spaarnwoude is nearby for outdoor activities. The property is also conveniently located near arterial roads leading to Schiphol, Amsterdam, and Haarlem, making it an ideal base for commuters. The backyard faces northwest and has a depth of 8.28 meters and a width of 9.99 meters. Parking is available on public roads in the area. This property combines the charm of a 1930s home with modern luxuries and a prime location in the Randstad.
