Description
This semi-detached family residence is situated on the Jan van Amstelstraat in the town of Schijndel. The property was originally constructed in 1965 and has a total living area of approximately 101 square meters spread across three floors. The plot measures 235 square meters in total. The asking price for this property is 429,000 euros, which translates to approximately 4,248 euros per square meter of living space.
The location of this property is one of its notable attributes. Jan van Amstelstraat is described as a quiet residential street that is particularly suitable for families with children. At the front of the property, there is a view of a green area, which contributes to the pleasant streetscape. Within the immediate vicinity, residents will find a daycare center and two primary schools, making daily routines involving children more convenient. For grocery shopping and other daily necessities, options are available close by without requiring long journeys. The center of Schijndel, which offers a varied selection of shops and dining establishments, can be reached by bicycle in approximately five minutes. For those who need to commute to larger cities, the nearby Structuurweg provides easy access to major roads leading to places such as s-Hertogenbosch and Eindhoven.
The exterior of the property includes a front garden and a side garden that have been neatly laid out with lawn and planted borders. On the left side of the property, there is a driveway providing parking space on the property's own land. At the rear of the garden, there is a detached stone garage that can accommodate one car and is equipped with electricity. This garage offers additional storage space or could serve as a hobby area. The garage is accessible via a rear path. The backyard itself is fully paved and designed to be low maintenance, which is practical for homeowners who prefer to spend less time on garden upkeep. The backyard faces north and east.
Entering the property, visitors arrive in the hallway which provides access to the meter cupboard, a storage cellar, a toilet room, and the staircase to the upper floors. From the hallway, one enters the L-shaped living room. This room benefits from large windows that allow plenty of natural daylight to enter the space. The interior finish includes a wooden floor, plastered walls, and a beamed ceiling. These elements together create a warm and characteristic atmosphere in the living space.
From the living room, there is access to a utility room that contains connections for a washing machine and dryer, as well as a door leading to the backyard. Adjacent to the utility room is the closed kitchen, which is arranged in a corner layout. The kitchen is equipped with upper and lower cabinets, drawers, a sink, a ceramic hob, an extractor hood, and a refrigerator. The listing notes that both the kitchen and some of the interior finishes are somewhat dated and offer opportunities for modernization according to the new owner's preferences.
The first floor is reached via the staircase from the hallway. The landing on this floor provides access to three bedrooms and the bathroom. The bedrooms and landing are finished with laminate flooring and plastered walls. One of the bedrooms has a fixed staircase leading to the second floor, which is a practical feature for accessing the upper level. The bathroom is equipped with a shower, a toilet, and a washbasin with a vanity unit.
The second floor consists of a spacious storage attic that is accessed via the fixed staircase from one of the bedrooms. This attic space has a skylight, which brings in pleasant daylight and makes the space more versatile. The central heating boiler, a Vaillant gas-fired combination boiler from 2021, is installed on this floor. The presence of the skylight and the available space mean that this floor could potentially be used for purposes beyond simple storage, depending on the needs and creativity of the new owner.
Regarding the technical specifications of the property, the roof is a gable roof covered with bituminous roofing material and tiles. The property has an energy label D. Insulation measures that have been implemented include roof insulation, partial double glazing, and wall insulation. The property is also equipped with eight solar panels, which contribute to reducing energy costs. The heating system and hot water are both provided by the aforementioned Vaillant combination boiler, which is owned rather than rented. The property has a fiber optic cable connection available.
The property is registered in the land registry under the designation SCHIJNDEL H 858 with a plot area of 235 square meters. The ownership situation is full ownership, meaning there are no leasehold or ground lease obligations to consider. The total volume of the building is approximately 410 cubic meters, which includes the 101 square meters of living space, 16 square meters of other indoor space, and 20 square meters of external storage space.
This family home presents itself as a property with a practical layout and solid basic features that offers the new owner the opportunity to renovate and update the interior according to their own taste and requirements. The combination of the quiet residential location, the proximity to schools and amenities, the availability of private parking and a garage, and the presence of solar panels and a relatively modern heating installation make this a property that could appeal to families looking for a home they can personalize over time. The transfer of the property is to be agreed upon between the seller and the buyer, allowing for some flexibility in the timing of the move.
