Downsides

The property is strategically located within a stone's throw of the vibrant city center of Breda. Situated in the residential neighborhood of Brabant Park, the home offers a convenient lifestyle with various amenities in close proximity.

Constructed circa 1958, this terraced house boasts a tiled roof with insulation. The exterior walls are cavity walls fitted with cavity wall insulation to enhance energy efficiency. All window frames in the property are constructed from plastic and feature HR+ glazing, contributing to a comfortable indoor climate. The floors on the upper levels are made of concrete, with the exception of the living room floor, which aids in reducing sound transfer between the floors. The property utilizes a natural ventilation system, supplemented by mechanical ventilation in the bathroom and laundry room to ensure optimal air quality. Heating and hot water are provided by a high-efficiency central heating boiler, a Nefit Proline model from 2025, which is rented.
The current owner has undertaken several measures to modernize and maintain the property. In 2020, the kitchen was updated with new fronts and appliances. Significant energy efficiency improvements were carried out between 2020 and 2021, including the installation of roof insulation, new gutters, cavity wall insulation, and HR+ glazing. The living room was enhanced in 2021 with a custom-built TV cabinet, and the toilet on the ground floor was renewed. The property also features a luxurious new bathroom and a new central heating boiler installed in 2025. Looking ahead, a custom laundry cabinet is planned for installation on the first floor in 2026.
The layout of the home is both practical and spacious. The ground floor comprises a hall and entrance area with a toilet room equipped with a wall-hung closet, a meter cupboard, the staircase to the first floor, and access to the living room. The living room itself is divided into a cozy seating area and a separate dining area, both offering views of the rear garden.

The dining area is conveniently located at the rear of the house. Both the living room and the dining area feature French doors that open to the south-oriented backyard, allowing for an seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
The outdoor space is a significant asset of this property. A canopy has been constructed against the house, providing a sheltered area suitable for a large dining table or a comfortable lounge set. The backyard is low-maintenance and features a terrace along with various plant borders. An outdoor tap and a rear entrance are present for convenience. At the rear of the garden stands a detached stone shed, which is equipped with electricity, offering additional storage or workshop space.
The first floor of the property features a landing that provides access to all rooms and a hatch with a loft ladder leading to the second floor. The first bedroom is situated at the front of the house and includes a fixed closet. The bathroom, also located at the front, has been luxuriously finished. It includes a shower with a thermostatic tap and a rain shower, a wall-hung toilet, a vanity unit with a heated mirror and lighting, and a designer radiator. Two additional bedrooms are located at the rear of the house, both featuring fixed closets. The laundry room is accessible from the landing and has been fitted with a custom-made cabinet arrangement to neatly store items and integrate laundry appliances. This room is lockable and is ventilated by a mechanical system.
The second floor is accessible via the loft ladder. This level offers standing height and is illuminated by a plastic skylight. The central heating boiler and the mechanical ventilation unit are installed on this floor. The property has a usable floor area of 88 square meters, with additional external storage space of 10 square meters. The plot covers 135 square meters. The energy performance of the property is rated with Label B, reflecting the insulation and glazing upgrades.
