Description
This well-maintained terraced house is located on the Kalkhovensingel in Culemborg, a city in the province of Gelderland situated between Utrecht and Den Bosch. The property was constructed in 2004 and offers a living area of approximately 134 square meters on a plot of 145 square meters. The house provides generous space for a family and has been finished to a modern standard, ready for immediate occupation.
The ground floor begins with an entrance hall that houses the meter cupboard, a separate toilet, and the staircase leading to the upper floors. From the hall, you enter the spacious and light-filled living room. The room benefits from large windows on both the front and rear facades, allowing ample natural light to flood the space throughout the day. The open-plan layout connects the living area seamlessly to the kitchen at the rear of the house.
The modern open kitchen was installed in March 2026 and features a stylish cooking island. The kitchen cabinets are finished in a calm green color scheme and are equipped with a range of built-in appliances. Among these is an oven that also functions as a built-in air fryer. A Quooker tap provides both boiling water and sparkling water. The kitchen offers generous cabinet storage space. The open layout makes the kitchen the heart of the home, ideal for cooking, dining, and family gatherings. A door at the rear provides direct access to the back garden.
On the first floor, the landing provides access to three spacious bedrooms and the bathroom. The bedrooms are practically arranged and offer sufficient space for a family household, whether used as sleeping quarters, a home office, or a hobby room. The bathroom is fully equipped and includes a bathtub, a shower, a washbasin with a vanity unit, and a toilet. A window in the bathroom provides natural ventilation and daylight, contributing to a comfortable environment.
The second floor adds two additional bedrooms, bringing the total number of bedrooms to five. A dormer window and roof windows on this floor ensure surprisingly ample light and a sense of space. This floor is well suited as sleeping quarters for larger families but can equally serve as a workspace, hobby room, or guest room.
A folding attic ladder provides access to a practical loft storage area, offering additional storage capacity for items that are used infrequently.
The back garden was redesigned in May 2026 with a low-maintenance approach in mind. It features a spacious terrace, planted borders, and an area of artificial grass. The garden faces southeast, which means it receives plenty of sunlight throughout the day, making it a pleasant outdoor space for relaxation. At the rear of the garden stands a free-standing wooden shed, suitable for storing bicycles and garden equipment. The garden is accessible via a back entrance.
The house is equipped with nine solar panels and has an energy label of A, reflecting its energy-efficient character. Two air conditioning units provide cooling during warmer months. Heating and hot water are provided by a Nefit TrendLine HRC25 CW4 II combination boiler from 2018, which is owned by the homeowner. The property is insulated across the roof, walls, floor, and all windows are double glazed.
Culemborg is a historic city with a charming city centre and good local amenities. The property is situated in a quiet and child-friendly residential neighbourhood. In the immediate surroundings, there are schools, playgrounds, sports facilities, and shops. The historic city centre and the NS railway station are within walking distance. The central location ensures that cities such as Utrecht and Den Bosch are easily reached by car.
