Description
This modern semi-detached residence is located at Klokbaai 18 in the Oud West district of Zaandam. The property was constructed in 2009 and has been well maintained by the current owners. With a living area of 102 square meters and a plot size of 57 square meters, this home offers comfortable living space for families or couples seeking a central yet peaceful location.
The property holds an energy label A rating, which reflects its excellent energy efficiency. The home is fully insulated, including roof insulation, wall insulation, and floor insulation. The windows feature HR+++ glazing, which provides superior thermal performance compared to standard double glazing. Additionally, the entire property benefits from underfloor heating, ensuring a comfortable and even distribution of warmth throughout the home during the colder months.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into the hallway which provides access to the toilet, the meter cupboard, and the kitchen. The kitchen is situated at the front of the residence and is designed in a modern corner layout. The kitchen was installed in 2013 and has been updated with new appliances in 2024, offering contemporary functionality for daily meal preparation. The kitchen configuration allows for efficient use of space while providing ample storage and work surface areas.
The living room is located at the rear of the ground floor and benefits from large window sections that allow natural light to enter the space freely. This creates a bright and airy atmosphere while also enhancing the sense of space within the room. The underfloor heating in this area adds to the comfort level, particularly during the winter season. From the living room, there is direct access to the backyard, allowing for a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living.
The first floor of the property contains two spacious bedrooms. Both rooms are of good proportions and can be arranged according to the needs of the new occupants. Whether used as bedrooms, a home office, or a combination of both, these rooms offer flexibility in their use. The rooms receive natural light through the windows, contributing to a pleasant living environment.
The second floor provides additional living space with a third bedroom, a utility room, and a complete bathroom. The third bedroom is generously sized and can serve as a main bedroom or a multipurpose room depending on the requirements of the household. The utility room houses the central heating boiler and provides practical space for laundry appliances. The bathroom is fully equipped with a toilet, a washbasin, and a shower combined with a bathtub, offering all necessary facilities for daily use.
The central heating system consists of an Intergas gas-fired combination boiler that was installed in 2024. This recent installation means the new owner will benefit from a reliable and efficient heating system with an expected long service life ahead. The property also features mechanical ventilation, which helps maintain good air quality throughout the home.
The exterior of the property has received attention with the paintwork on both the front and rear facades being refreshed in mid-2023. This recent maintenance ensures the exterior presentation remains neat and well cared for.
The backyard measures 16 square meters with dimensions of 3.75 meters in depth and 4.25 meters in width. The garden is positioned on the northwest side of the property, which means it can receive afternoon and evening sunlight during the summer months. Despite the central location of the property, the backyard offers a sheltered outdoor space where residents can enjoy sitting outside in a relatively quiet setting. The compact size of the garden means it requires minimal maintenance while still providing a pleasant outdoor area.
The property is situated on a quiet road in the center of Zaandam, within a pleasant residential neighborhood. All daily amenities are within easy reach, including shops, supermarkets, and restaurants. The NS railway station is located at a short distance, providing convenient connections to Amsterdam and other destinations. Schools, sports facilities, and main roads are also easily accessible from this location. The surrounding area offers various recreational opportunities, contributing to a comfortable and centrally located living environment.
Parking in the area is regulated, with paid parking and parking permit systems in place. Prospective buyers should factor this into their considerations regarding the practical aspects of living at this location.
The property is offered for sale at a price of 469,000 euros, which is calculated at approximately 4,598 euros per square meter of living space. The sale is on an as-is basis, meaning the property is sold in its current condition. The choice of notary is left to the buyer, though it is specified that the notary must be based in Zaandam or the immediate surrounding area. The exact date of transfer can be negotiated between the parties.
This semi-detached home presents an opportunity to acquire a relatively young property in a central location with modern conveniences and good energy performance.
