Characteristic Semi-Detached Villa from 1904 in Het Spiegel Village Area

Located on one of the most attractive lanes in the village area known as Het Spiegel in Bussum, this characteristic semi-detached villa dates back to 1904. The property presents a house with distinct character, charm, and an atmosphere that becomes apparent as soon as you enter the street. The Koningin Emmalaan is a location where children can still learn to ride bicycles on the street and where neighbors know each other. This represents an absolute top location in the area.

Residents here enjoy considerable freedom with a high degree of privacy in the backyard, while simultaneously being within short distance of everything that makes living in this area pleasant. Within approximately five minutes by bicycle, one can reach schools, sports fields, shops, restaurants, and the Naarden-Bussum train station. This combination of tranquility, accessibility, and a high quality of life is notable for the region.

The house itself exudes character and authenticity. The attractive facade, charming details, attractive window sections, and the generous plot contribute to a warm and stylish appearance. Over the years, the house has been carefully maintained while preserving its original character. A recent structural inspection report has been prepared and provides insight into the condition of the villa.

The layout of the property is varied and comfortable. The ground floor contains the generous living spaces with plenty of natural light and pleasant contact with the garden. Both the kitchen and the living room have access to the outdoor area. The upper floors offer multiple well-proportioned bedrooms and ample space for a family, working from home, and accommodating guests.

The backyard functions as an oasis of peace and privacy. Due to the free position and mature greenery, the space feels sheltered and relaxed. On pleasant days, one can enjoy the sun until late in the evening, while children can play safely outside.

A notable aspect of this villa is that it is the first time in eighty years that this house has come onto the market. Four generations have grown up in this property. Houses on the Koningin Emmalaan rarely become available, and this is not without reason. This is a location where residents live with considerable pleasure for years and are generally reluctant to leave.

Regarding the property details, the living area measures 164 square meters. There is an additional 9 square meters of other indoor space, 25 square meters of building-related outdoor space, and 10 square meters of external storage. The plot has a total area of 465 square meters, though it should be noted that a portion of approximately 43 square meters, currently used as a parking space, will be cadastrally separated and added to the neighboring parcel numbered 22a. This parking space therefore does not form part of the property being sold.

The property has ten rooms in total, including four bedrooms. There is one bathroom equipped with a shower, bathtub, toilet, and washbasin, plus a separate toilet. The house spans three living levels and includes a basement. Features include outdoor blinds, skylights, mechanical ventilation, natural ventilation, a chimney flue, and television cable connection.

No energy label is currently available for the property. The insulation consists of roof insulation and HR glass. Heating is provided by a Remeha HR central heating boiler from 2015, which is included in the purchase.

The property is situated within a protected village or cityscape, which speaks to the historical and architectural value of the area. The roof is a composite structure covered with tiles. A building inspection certificate is available.

The outdoor spaces include a back garden, front garden, side garden, and a sun terrace. A balcony is also present on the property. There is a free-standing wooden shed with electricity and insulation consisting of roof insulation and double glazing.

Parking is available on the property itself as well as through public parking in the vicinity.

An important detail regarding the plot is that the rear-lying parcel at number 22a has a right of way over the property, as can be seen on site. Pipes are also present in the ground serving this neighboring parcel. These easements should be taken into consideration when evaluating the property.

The property is offered at 1,495,000 euros costs to the buyer. The asking price per square meter of living space amounts to 9,116 euros. The property is available and the acceptance terms are to be discussed. The property type is classified as a single-family home in the form of a semi-detached house. The construction dates from 1904 and is classified as existing construction. The cadastral designation is BUSSUM E 252, and the ownership situation is full ownership.

This property represents a family home in one of the most sought-after locations in Het Spiegel area of Bussum. The combination of historical character, careful maintenance over the years, practical layout, and the exceptional location makes this a distinctive offering in the local housing market. The fact that the property has remained within one family for four generations underscores the appeal and livability of both the house and its surroundings.

Potential buyers should be aware of the easements affecting the property, particularly the right of way for the neighboring parcel and the planned separation of the 43 square meter parking area. These factors affect the usable outdoor space but do not diminish the fundamental qualities of the villa itself.

The availability of a recent structural inspection report provides transparency regarding the condition of the building, which is particularly valuable for a property of this age. Buyers can request to review this report to gain a detailed understanding of any maintenance requirements or considerations specific to a villa from 1904.

The location in a protected villagescape adds an additional layer of character and assurance regarding the long-term appearance and atmosphere of the immediate surroundings. Properties in such designated areas benefit from regulations that help preserve the historical and architectural qualities that make these locations attractive in the first place.
