This outdoor space is equipped with a sun awning, allowing you to control the amount of sunlight entering the space.

From the kitchen, you can reach the second balcony, which is located on the north.

The interactive sun and shadow system available on the listing website can provide further insight into the sunlight patterns throughout the year.
The apartment includes three bedrooms of a good size, making it suitable for families, couples, or individuals requiring a home office. The modern bathroom is fully tiled and features a sink cabinet with a mirror, a walk-in shower, a towel radiator, and mechanical ventilation. The flooring in the apartment consists largely of carpet, which contributes to a warm and cozy atmosphere.

This room also contains the mechanical ventilation system and the connections for a washing machine and dryer, centralizing the household utilities.
In terms of storage, there is a closed private storage room available in the basement of the complex. This storage unit is equipped with electricity, providing extra space for belongings such as bicycles or seasonal items. Parking is available on the public parking area near the apartment complex. There is sufficient parking space available, and parking is free of charge for residents and visitors.
The apartment complex itself is described as well-maintained and cozy, situated in a beautiful part of Ede. The property has an energy label A, which is a result of features such as HR glass and wall insulation, ensuring good energy efficiency and lower energy costs. The building is a portiekflat (gallery flat) constructed in 1984 with a flat roof covered with bitumen roofing. The living area spans 102 square meters, while the total building-bound outdoor area measures 13 square meters. The volume of the apartment is 294 cubic meters.

This contribution covers the maintenance of the building and common areas. The VvE is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, has a periodic contribution, a reserve fund is present, and there is a maintenance plan in place. Additionally, building insurance is arranged by the VvE. The ownership situation is full ownership.
The acceptance of the property is in consultation, with a short-term move-in date being possible. Should you purchase the property without a financing reservation clause, a deposit or bank guarantee is required two weeks after signing the purchase agreement. As the property was built in 1984, which is more than 20 years ago, an asbestos and age clause will be included in the purchase agreement.
