Spacious Sustainable Family Home with Five Bedrooms in Blaricum
Key Features
Upsides
- The property features sustainable and modern systems including a heat pump, underfloor heating and cooling throughout, full insulation, gas-free operation, and an energy label A rating.
- With five bedrooms spread across three floors, a generous L-shaped living room with high ceilings of 2.70 meters, and 180 square meters of living space, the home offers ample room for a family.
- The corner plot location provides extra outdoor space, privacy, and a spacious feel compared to mid-row properties, along with a driveway for two cars.
- Built in 2019, the property benefits from modern construction standards, contemporary architecture, and a turnkey condition without requiring immediate renovation work.
Downsides
- The electric boiler is rented rather than owned, which means ongoing monthly costs that would not apply if the system were purchased outright.
- As a semi-detached house, the property shares a wall with the neighboring residence, resulting in less privacy and potential noise transfer compared to a fully detached home.
- At 6,361 euros per square meter, the price per square meter is relatively high, which may be a consideration for buyers comparing value in the region.
- The rear garden measures 136 square meters, which is modest given the total plot size of 300 square meters, with the remainder allocated to front and side gardens and the driveway.
