Spacious Five-Bedroom Terraced Home with Energy Label A in Harderwijk
Key Features
Upsides
- Five bedrooms is an unusually high number for a terraced house, providing exceptional flexibility for families with multiple children, those who work from home, or anyone needing guest rooms.
- Energy label A with 10 solar panels, HR++ glazing, roof and wall insulation makes this 1970-built property very energy efficient, resulting in lower monthly costs and a reduced environmental footprint.
- The kitchen and bathroom were both completely renovated in 2018, meaning these expensive and disruptive projects have already been completed for the next owner.
- The southeast-facing garden with a wooden pergola creates an attractive outdoor living space that can be enjoyed for most of the year, with the pergola extending the usable season.
- The location in a quiet, child-friendly neighborhood with schools, sports facilities, supermarkets, and public transport nearby, plus the historic center of Harderwijk within easy reach.
Downsides
- The garden measures only 46 square meters and is fully paved with no lawn, which may be a disadvantage for families with young children or those who prefer a green garden with grass.
- There is no private parking or garage, meaning residents must rely on public street parking which can sometimes be competitive in residential areas.
- As a terraced house built in 1970, the property inherently offers less privacy than a detached home and may have thinner walls than newer constructions despite insulation upgrades.
- At 7 meters deep, the garden is relatively shallow, which combined with the full paving gives it more of a courtyard feel than a traditional backyard.
- The price per square meter at 3,929 euros is relatively high for a 1970s terraced house, even with the energy improvements and renovations.
Description
This modern finished terraced house is located in a quiet and child-friendly residential area in Harderwijk. The property offers a surprising amount of space with no fewer than five bedrooms, making it particularly suitable for families looking for a move-in ready home without the need for renovation work. The house has been well maintained by the current owners and features several recent upgrades that contribute to both comfort and energy efficiency.
The ground floor of the property welcomes you with a practical entrance hall that provides access to a guest toilet equipped with a small sink. A built-in stair closet offers convenient storage space for household items and coats. The living room is accessible through a stylish black wooden door that serves as an elegant interior detail. Large windows at both the front and rear of the living area ensure abundant natural daylight throughout the day, creating a pleasant and inviting atmosphere.
At the rear of the ground floor, the open plan kitchen connects seamlessly with the living room. The kitchen was completely renewed in 2018 and features a central cooking island that serves as the focal point of the space. This layout makes it easy to maintain conversation with family members or guests while preparing meals. The kitchen is well equipped with modern appliances including an induction cooktop, extractor hood, oven, refrigerator, freezer, a Quooker instant hot water tap, and a dishwasher. The combination of the generous living room and the luxurious open kitchen makes this floor particularly suitable for families who enjoy spending time together.
The first floor can be reached via the staircase and opens onto a landing that provides access to four bedrooms. The first bedroom is spacious and offers ample room for a double bed plus additional wardrobe space. The remaining three bedrooms are well proportioned and can serve various purposes such as children's rooms, a home office, hobby room, or guest bedroom. The flexibility of having four rooms on this floor allows families to adapt the space to their specific needs over time.
The bathroom on the first floor was also completely renovated in 2018 and features a contemporary design. It includes a spacious walk-in shower, a double vanity with storage cabinet, and a second toilet. The modern finish and practical layout make this bathroom both functional and visually appealing.
A fixed staircase leads to the second floor where you will find the fifth bedroom. This room features a dormer window, an additional skylight, and air conditioning that was installed in 2022. The air conditioning provides welcome cooling during warmer months and can also offer heating functionality during transitional seasons. The landing on this floor has two skylights that bring in natural light and houses the connections for a washing machine and dryer. The central heating boiler, a Nefit gas-fired combi boiler from 2017, is also located here. Additional storage space is available on this floor, which is always a valuable feature in a family home.
The rear garden is positioned on the southeast, allowing you to enjoy sunlight for a large part of the day. The garden has been designed with low maintenance in mind and is fully paved. Several fixed planters have been placed throughout the garden to provide green accents without requiring extensive gardening work. An awning is installed directly against the house to provide shade on hot summer days.
A notable feature of the outdoor space is the spacious wooden pergola located at the rear of the garden. This covered area creates an comfortable lounge spot where you can sit outside from early spring until late autumn. The combination of sunlight exposure, privacy, and the atmospheric pergola makes this outdoor space a place where you will likely spend considerable time.
The property also includes a freestanding stone shed in the backyard that provides secure storage for bicycles, garden equipment, and other items. The shed has an overhang above the door that opens to the rear alley. Additionally, there is a second wooden storage unit that offers extra storage capacity. The total external storage space measures 18 square meters.
In terms of energy efficiency, this property performs very well. It holds an energy label A, which is exceptional for a house built in 1970. This rating has been achieved through a combination of roof insulation, wall insulation, HR++ double glazing in plastic window frames, and the installation of 10 solar panels. The mechanical ventilation system contributes to good indoor air quality while maintaining energy efficiency. These features not only reduce monthly energy costs but also future-proof the property against increasingly strict energy regulations.
The location in Harderwijk offers a balanced living environment. The immediate surroundings include schools, sports clubs, playgrounds, supermarkets, and public transportation options. The historic center of Harderwijk with its charming terraces, shops, and restaurants is within short walking or cycling distance. This combination of a quiet residential street with amenities nearby is often sought after by families.
Parking is available on the public roads surrounding the property. While there is no private parking space or garage, the listing indicates that there is sufficient public parking in the area.
The property is offered at an asking price of 495,000 euros, which translates to approximately 3,929 euros per square meter of living space. Transfer is available in consultation, allowing some flexibility in the moving date. The property is offered with a full ownership situation (volle eigendom) and is currently available on the market.
For those interested in more detailed information, a dedicated property website has been created where a comprehensive brochure can be downloaded containing all specifications and details about the home.
This terraced house represents a compelling option for families seeking a spacious home in a convenient location.
