Move-in Ready Corner Apartment with Spacious Balcony and Parking Near Nijmegen
Key Features
Upsides
- The kitchen and bathroom were both renovated in 2024, meaning these essential spaces are modern and require no immediate investment from the buyer.
- The property includes a private parking space on the premises, which is a valuable feature that adds convenience and can be difficult to find with many apartments.
- The 14 square meter covered balcony is notably spacious for an apartment of this size and provides excellent outdoor living space that extends the usable area of the home.
- The location offers excellent connectivity to Nijmegen by bicycle and is within cycling distance of major institutions including Radboudumc, Radboud University, and HAN, making it ideal for those connected to these establishments.
- The VvE is professionally managed with a reserve fund and maintenance plan in place, indicating responsible building governance that helps protect property values.
Downsides
- The monthly VvE contribution of 147.14 euros is relatively high for an apartment of this size and adds significantly to the monthly housing costs.
- The property is located in Heumen rather than directly in Nijmegen, which may be less convenient for those who prefer to be in the city center or need frequent access to urban amenities.
- With only 76 square meters of living space and two bedrooms, the apartment may feel limited for families or those who require more room.
- The building dates from 1997, and while well-maintained, it does not offer the modern construction standards or energy efficiency of newer builds.
- The exact address and specific neighborhood details are not provided in the listing, making it difficult to fully assess the immediate surroundings.
Description
This well-maintained corner apartment is situated on the first floor of a carefully kept building in a sought-after and peaceful residential area in Heumen. The property is offered at a price of 325,000 euros, with buyer's costs applicable, and presents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a move-in ready home in a convenient location.
The building features a ground floor entrance with a hallway containing mailboxes and a staircase leading to the upper floors. Upon reaching the first floor, you enter the apartment through a hallway that provides access to all rooms in the home. The layout has been thoughtfully designed to maximize the available 76 square meters of living space.
The apartment contains two bedrooms, making it suitable for couples, small families, or individuals who require a home office space. One of the bedrooms includes a built-in closet, offering practical storage solutions without taking up additional floor space. The second bedroom provides flexibility for various uses depending on the new owner's needs.
The bathroom has been renovated in 2024 and is equipped with a sink and a combination bathtub that can also function as a shower. A separate toilet room, also updated in 2024, features a wall-hung toilet and a small sink. These recent updates ensure that these essential facilities are modern and ready for immediate use.
A fixed closet in the hallway houses the washing machine connection, the central heating combi boiler, and the mechanical ventilation system. This practical arrangement keeps utility installations organized and out of sight while remaining accessible for maintenance purposes.
The living room is a bright and inviting space that benefits from the corner position of the apartment, allowing natural light to enter from multiple directions. The room features sliding doors that open directly onto the covered balcony measuring 14 square meters. This generous outdoor space extends the living area during warmer months and provides a pleasant spot for relaxation or outdoor dining.
Adjacent to the living room is a half-open kitchen that was also renovated in 2024. The kitchen is arranged in an L-shaped configuration and comes equipped with built-in appliances. The half-open design creates a connection between the cooking area and the living space while maintaining a degree of separation.
The property includes several additional features that add to its practicality and value. A storage room of 6 square meters is located on the ground floor, providing space for bicycles, garden furniture, or other items that do not need to be kept inside the apartment. Furthermore, the apartment comes with its own parking space on the property, a valuable asset in an era where parking can be difficult to find in many residential areas.
The building dates from 1997 and has been well-maintained over the years. The apartment benefits from comprehensive insulation measures, including roof insulation, double glazing, high-efficiency glass, wall insulation, and floor insulation. These features contribute to the energy label B rating, indicating a reasonably energy-efficient home that helps keep heating costs manageable.
The property is part of a healthy and active homeowners association that is professionally managed. The monthly VvE contribution is 147.14 euros, which covers the shared costs of building maintenance and management. The VvE is properly organized with registration at the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, has a reserve fund in place, maintains an upkeep plan, and has arranged building insurance. These factors indicate responsible governance and help protect the long-term value of the property.
The location of this apartment offers a balanced combination of tranquility and accessibility. Situated on a quiet road within a residential neighborhood, the property provides a peaceful living environment. At the same time, it is conveniently positioned near major roads and daily amenities. The connection to Nijmegen by bicycle is described as excellent, making this location particularly attractive for those who work or study in the city.
Several important institutions are within cycling distance of the property, including the CWZ hospital, Radboud university medical center, Radboud University, and the HAN university of applied sciences. This proximity makes the apartment especially appealing to medical professionals, academic staff, students, or anyone who regularly visits these locations.
The asking price per square meter is 4,276 euros, which provides a reference point for comparing this property with similar apartments in the area. The total volume of the apartment is 254 cubic meters, and the property is held in full ownership as indicated by the cadastral registration.
In summary, this corner apartment in Heumen offers a complete package for prospective buyers: a move-in ready condition with recently updated kitchen and bathroom facilities, practical features such as a parking space and storage, a generous balcony, good energy efficiency, and a location that combines residential peace with excellent accessibility to Nijmegen and its major institutions.
