Move-in Ready Family Home with South-Facing Garden in Quiet Waalwijk Neighborhood
Key Features
Description
Located in the child-friendly Zanddonk neighborhood of Waalwijk, this terraced family home at Jacob Obrechtpark offers a comfortable living environment in a peaceful setting. The property was originally built in 1974 and has since been thoughtfully maintained and improved by its current owners. With a total living area of 111 square meters spread across multiple levels, this home provides ample space for family life.
The ground floor welcomes you through a hallway featuring a gray anthracite tiled floor that continues throughout this level. The hall provides access to the staircase, meter cupboard, and a neatly finished toilet room complete with a wall-hung toilet, small sink, tiling, and a window for natural ventilation. The living room benefits from an L-shaped layout that creates a pleasant flow between different living zones. Large windows at the front offer views of the quiet square with its play facilities and green spaces, making it ideal for families with children. The tiled floor includes underfloor heating as supplementary heating, adding to the comfort of the space. Patio doors open directly to the backyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection during warmer months.
The kitchen has been extended and features a semi-open design with a light-colored corner arrangement. It is equipped with various built-in appliances including a gas cooktop, stainless steel extractor hood, combination oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, and a one-and-a-half sink. Storage is well organized with an apothecary cabinet and a turning carousel. The composite worktop gives the kitchen a premium appearance. The kitchen also provides direct access to the backyard and features a practical towel radiator.
The first floor contains three bedrooms, all neatly finished with carpet flooring. The master bathroom is modern and fully equipped, featuring a toilet, vanity unit with sink, illuminated mirror, towel radiator, and a walk-in shower with practical niches for toiletries. A window provides natural daylight and ventilation. The bathroom is fully tiled and finished with recessed ceiling spotlights for a clean, contemporary look.
The second floor is accessed via a fixed staircase and features a landing area where laundry appliances can be set up. There is substantial storage space behind the knee walls and in a fixed closet that houses the central heating boiler, an Intergas combi boiler from 2012. This level also contains a spacious and bright fourth bedroom, made possible by a wide plastic skylight dormer that adds both living space and natural light. The room is finished with floor tiles and includes a radiator, recessed spotlights, and additional storage behind the knee walls.
The outdoor spaces include both a front and back garden. The main garden is at the rear of the property, oriented to the south, which means it benefits from sunlight throughout much of the day. The backyard measures 59 square meters with a depth of 8.93 meters and a width of 6.58 meters. It features a stone storage shed spanning the full width of the plot, with rear access through an alley. The garden is equipped with an outdoor tap, garden lighting, a sun awning, and decorative paving. Public parking is available in the surrounding area.
The property has several notable features worth mentioning. The roof and roof boarding were recently renewed in 2025, and a wide dormer window was added at the rear. The home is described as very well maintained with high-quality finishes throughout. The windows are a mix of plastic and wood with double glazing, and some windows have roller shutters. The wooden window frames were painted on the exterior in approximately 2021.
In terms of energy efficiency, the property has a C energy label. Insulation measures include roof insulation, wall insulation, and double glazing with HR glass. Heating is provided by the central heating boiler and partial underfloor heating on the ground floor. Hot water comes from the central heating boiler and an electric boiler in the kitchen.
The location in the Zanddonk neighborhood offers a quiet living environment away from through traffic, directly adjacent to a square with play and green facilities. This makes it particularly attractive for families with young children. The neighborhood provides all daily amenities within easy reach, including various shops, schools, and public transportation options. Despite the peaceful setting, the property remains well connected to the broader infrastructure of Waalwijk and surrounding areas.
The Zanddonk area of Waalwijk has developed into a sought-after residential location over the years. The neighborhood is characterized by its mix of housing types, predominantly family homes built in the 1960s and 1970s, many of which have been updated and modernized over time. The presence of green spaces, play areas, and the absence of through traffic contribute to a safe and pleasant environment for children to grow up in. Residents benefit from a strong sense of community, which is often enhanced by the square layouts that encourage neighborly interaction.
The external storage space of 13 square meters provided by the stone shed at the rear of the property is a practical feature for a family home. Having a full-width shed means there is ample room for storing bicycles, garden equipment, tools, and other items that would otherwise take up valuable space in the home. The rear access through an alley makes it easy to reach the shed without having to go through the house, which is convenient when bringing in groceries or moving larger items.
The total volume of the property is 432 cubic meters, which is a reasonable size for a terraced family home of this era. The plot size of 133 square meters includes both the front and back gardens, with the backyard being the larger of the two at 59 square meters. The front garden contributes to the attractive streetscape and provides a buffer between the living space and the public area.
The building has a gabled roof covered with tiles, which was recently renewed according to the listing details. This is a significant maintenance item that new owners will not need to worry about for many years to come. The mention of both plastic and wooden window frames suggests that previous owners have gradually updated different parts of the property over time, with the wooden frames receiving exterior painting in 2021.
The heating system consists of an Intergas combi boiler from 2012, which is a reliable brand commonly used in Dutch homes. At over ten years old, the boiler is approaching the age where replacement might be considered in the medium term, though it may still have several years of service life remaining. The presence of an electric boiler for hot water in the kitchen is somewhat unusual and may relate to the kitchen extension, possibly indicating that the hot water supply to the kitchen is separate from the main system.
With its combination of a quiet, family-friendly location, practical layout across three levels, recent improvements including a new roof and dormer window, and move-in ready condition, this property represents a solid opportunity for buyers seeking a comfortable family home in Waalwijk. The south-facing garden and proximity to local amenities further enhance its appeal for those looking to settle in this part of the Netherlands.
