Charming Corner Townhouse in Bergen op Zoom City Center

Located on Johannesstraat 10 in the atmospheric center of Bergen op Zoom, this charming corner townhouse is offered for sale. The property is situated in a quiet, dead-end street that provides a pleasant combination of character, privacy, and urban living. This makes it an ideal location for starters or those looking to make a fresh start who are seeking a home with atmosphere in a central location.

The original construction date of the property is 1866, which gives the home its characteristic appearance. However, the dwelling was completely renovated in 2002 by the City Restoration Foundation (Stichting Stadsherstel), and has been well maintained over the years since. The interior features a neat finish and a practical layout that makes good use of the available space.

The ground floor layout begins with the entrance hall, which has spray-textured wall finishes, a laminate floor, and a ceiling finished with gypsum plasterboard. The meter cupboard contains 6 electrical groups, 2 earth leakage switches, and a fiber optic connection for fast internet. Adjacent to the hall is a modern tiled toilet room equipped with a wall-hung toilet and a small sink.

The living room is a welcoming space featuring a storage closet and the staircase to the first floor, which can be closed off at the bottom with a door for practical purposes. The walls have spray-textured finishes, the floor is laid with laminate, and the ceiling is finished with gypsum plasterboard, creating a clean and uniform appearance throughout.

At the rear of the ground floor is the open kitchen, which contains a lengthwise installed built-in kitchen unit. The kitchen is equipped with a synthetic worktop with a sink, a built-in gas cooktop, an electric oven, and an extractor hood. Also located in the kitchen is the HR combi boiler from the Remeha brand, which was installed in 2015 and is included in the purchase. The kitchen has the same wall, floor, and ceiling finishes as the living room for a cohesive look. French doors from the kitchen provide direct access to the garden and terrace.

The first floor contains a spacious bedroom that benefits from dormer windows on both the front and back of the property, allowing for plenty of natural light. The bedroom is fitted with practical built-in closets for storage. The walls have spray-textured finishes, the floor is carpeted, and the sloping roof surfaces are finished with gypsum plasterboard.

The bathroom on this floor is neatly tiled and equipped with a shower cabin, a washbasin, and connections for a washing machine and dryer. This layout keeps the laundry facilities conveniently located on the same floor as the bedroom.

The outdoor space consists of a landscaped city garden with a terrace paved with decorative paving stones and planted borders. The garden has a northwest orientation and measures approximately 24 square meters, with a depth of 6 meters and a width of 4 meters. There is also a practical storage shed with an electrical connection, which is constructed of wooden parts with a concrete floor and a corrugated metal roof.

The corner position of the property provides the benefit of extra light intake and a more spacious feeling compared to interior properties in the row. The total living area is 56 square meters, with an additional 4 square meters of external storage space. The plot size is 72 square meters and the volume of the home is 198 cubic meters.

In terms of construction, the main house is traditionally built with cavity walls in brick. The ground floor is concrete, while the first floor is wooden. The roof structure consists of a hipped roof covered with tiles and a flat roof section covered with bituminous roofing material.

The property has been insulated with floor insulation, cavity wall insulation, roof insulation, and features insulating glazing throughout. These measures contribute to the energy efficiency of the home, which has been assigned energy label D.

Heating and hot water are provided by the central heating system, specifically the Remeha gas-fired combi boiler from 2015 that is owned by the current owner.

The location is particularly convenient, situated in a charming street in the city center within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the lively Grote Markt (Main Square). Parking in the area consists of paid parking and public parking options.

The property is classified as a single-family corner house (eengezinswoning, hoekwoning) of existing construction. The asking price is 259,000 euros, which is equivalent to 4,625 euros per square meter of living space. The purchase is subject to costs payable by the buyer (kosten koper). The acceptance date is negotiable, and the property is currently available on the market.

Johannesstraat 10 offers a combination of historical character from its 1866 origins and modern comfort from the 2002 renovation and subsequent maintenance.
