Spacious Corner Home with Sunny Garden in Popular Speelheide Neighborhood
Key Features
Upsides
- Generous plot size of 253 square meters with a 13-meter deep south/west facing backyard that receives ample sunlight throughout the day, complemented by an aluminum terrace canopy with built-in lighting for extended outdoor enjoyment.
- Highly desirable location in the Speelheide neighborhood of Best, known for its green spaces and spacious plots, with excellent connectivity to major highways A2, A50, and A58, as well as proximity to Eindhoven Airport and the Brainport region.
- Flexible layout with the potential to easily create a fourth bedroom by re-adding a partition wall in the current main bedroom, which was originally two separate rooms.
- Practical features including a separate masonry storage building with electricity, a modern bathroom with underfloor heating, and a well-equipped open kitchen with various built-in appliances.
Downsides
- The central heating boiler is a Bosch HRC model from 2006, which is approaching twenty years old and may require replacement in the near future, representing a potential significant expense.
- Only partial double glazing is installed despite having some insulation measures, resulting in an energy label C rating which is below current standards and may lead to higher energy costs.
- No private parking or garage is available, with parking limited to public spaces along the street, which may be inconvenient for households with multiple vehicles.
- The backyard measurement shows a discrepancy, listed as 60 square meters while the stated dimensions of 13 meters by 5.80 meters would calculate to approximately 75 square meters, which should be verified.
