The house sits on a plot of 365 square meters and has a volume of 627 cubic meters.

The ground floor of the property has been significantly enlarged through the additions, creating a bright and spacious living environment. The living kitchen serves as the central gathering space of the home, designed to accommodate daily routines as well as social occasions. This kitchen area is connected seamlessly to the living room, which offers a balanced atmosphere suitable for the whole family. Both spaces benefit from the increased dimensions brought by the extensions.

From the kitchen, openslaande deuren provide direct access to the backyard. The living room also has a separate door leading to the garden. The rear garden measures approximately 120 square meters with dimensions of 10 meters in depth and 12 meters in width, oriented towards the northwest. This outdoor space offers ample room for children to play and for adults to relax during weekends and summer evenings. Additionally, the garden can be reached via a side path on the right side of the house, which includes a lockable gate.

A practical utility room is situated adjacent to the living areas, providing space for a washing machine and other household necessities. The property is equipped with a water softener system that treats all incoming water to prevent limescale buildup throughout the home.

The front of the property features a driveway leading to a carport, offering covered parking for bicycles. A wooden terrace is positioned in front of the house, providing a pleasant spot to enjoy the morning sun. An electric vehicle charging point is installed directly next to the house, conveniently accessible from the carport area.

The first floor contains three bedrooms. The master bedroom is particularly noteworthy, positioned above the former garage space. This room features a dormer window and a skylight, which together provide excellent natural light and a sense of spaciousness. Adjacent to the master bedroom is a dressing room that includes a sizeable built-in wardrobe, adding a touch of convenience rarely found in properties of this type.

The bathroom on this floor is fitted with a shower enclosure, a washbasin, and a wall-mounted toilet. A window in the bathroom allows for natural daylight and ventilation, contributing to a more pleasant atmosphere.

The second floor comprises a landing area, a closed storage room housing the central heating boiler, and an additional bedroom with a dormer window. This configuration provides flexible space that can serve as a fourth bedroom, a home office, or a hobby room depending on the needs of the occupants.

Regarding energy efficiency, the property holds an energy label C. The home benefits from roof insulation, double glazing throughout (with the exception of the front door), and wall insulation. Twelve solar panels have been installed on the roof to contribute to reduced energy costs. The rear extension features comfortable underfloor heating, while the remainder of the home is heated via a Nefit gas-fired combination boiler from 2015, which is owned by the current residents.
