Description
Located on the beloved Laan van Welgelegen, this surprisingly spacious semi-detached residence is situated in a spot where tranquility, freedom, and nature converge. At the rear and side of the property, residents can enjoy a magnificent free location directly on the water. This view never grows old. It is a place where hours can be spent by the waterfront, fishing rod out, feet in the grass, enjoying the peace and nature while hoping for that one big catch. The property offers a unique living experience that combines the comforts of a modern home with the serenity of the outdoors.
Upon entering the home, one immediately notices the pleasant atmosphere and carefully maintained finish. The playful layout creates a pleasant spatial feeling and offers ample living space for the entire family. The living room exudes calm, coziness, and comfort. Large windows allow an abundance of daylight to enter, while the tile floor and new interior doors provide a stylish and contemporary look. Shutters between the living room and the kitchen create an atmospheric connection between the two spaces and offer the possibility to close them off as desired.
The stylish living kitchen forms the heart of the home. A round dining table invites long dinners and cozy moments together. Thanks to the large windows and light color scheme, the space feels open and inviting. The kitchen was renewed in 2023 and is equipped with high-quality Siemens appliances. The recently installed sliding door provides plenty of light and a beautiful transition to the garden, ensuring that indoor and outdoor living areas flow seamlessly into one another.
The spacious utility room offers plenty of possibilities, for example as a playroom, hobby room, or practice at home. With no fewer than five bedrooms, there is ample space to effortlessly combine living, working, and life. The distribution of the rooms across the three floors provides flexibility for various family compositions or work-from-home situations.
The atmospheric canopy forms a true extension of the home. It is a place where you can enjoy the outdoors all year round. Start the day relaxed with breakfast in the morning sun, enjoy long summer evenings with friends and family during a cozy barbecue, and end the day with the sound of nature in the background. The garden is situated on the southwest and has a depth of 16 meters and a width of over 20 meters, providing ample space for various outdoor activities.
The property features a total of six rooms. In addition to the living room and kitchen, there are five bedrooms. The bathroom is equipped with a shower, a double sink, a toilet, and floor heating, adding to the comfort level. There is also a separate toilet, which is practical for households with multiple residents. The home is spread over three living layers, maximizing the usable floor area.
In terms of technical specifications, the property is well-maintained. It has an energy label B. The insulation includes roof insulation, double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation, which contributes to low energy costs and a comfortable indoor climate. Heating is provided by a central heating boiler and partial floor heating. Hot water is also supplied via the central heating boiler and an electric boiler. The central heating boiler is an Intergas Kombi Kompakt HRE 36/30 A, a gas-fired combi boiler. The listing indicates the boiler is from 2025, which suggests it is a brand new or very recent installation.
The plot has a total area of 416 square meters. The cadastral data shows two parcels, WERKENDAM P 729 with an area of 316 square meters and WERKENDAM P 1164 with an area of 100 square meters, both in full ownership. The backyard itself is 328 square meters. The property is located in a residential area but offers a sheltered position directly on the water. Parking is available on the property's own grounds, which is a convenient feature.
The location is ideal for nature lovers. After a meal, one can step onto the bicycle for a beautiful ride through the Biesbosch. Living on Laan van Welgelegen means living in the green, with freedom, water, and nature always close by. It is a place where one feels a bit on vacation every day. The presence of fiber optic cable ensures fast internet connections, which is essential for modern living and working from home.
The construction year of the property is 1989, and the type of roof is a saddle roof covered with tiles. The built-up external storage space offers room for storing bicycles or garden tools. The home also features a French balcony, adding to the charm of the facade. Other amenities include outdoor sun blinds, a skylight, and TV connections.
