Terraced home with heathland views in Bussum

Located in the popular and green neighborhood of De Eng in Bussum Zuid, this terraced family home from 1965 offers a solid foundation for buyers looking to create their ideal living space. The property is situated on Lange Heul and benefits from a favorable position close to the Bussumerheide, an expansive nature area where residents can enjoy endless walking and cycling opportunities. The immediate vicinity also includes schools, shops, sports clubs, the restaurant Heidezicht, and public transport connections, making this location practical for families as well as first-time buyers.

The house has been neatly maintained over the years by the current owner, which means the structure is sound. At the same time, the interior finishes and fixtures are straightforward and date from earlier decades. This combination presents an excellent opportunity for buyers who wish to modernize a property according to their own preferences and taste. A notable feature of this home is that from two of the bedrooms, one can enjoy an unobstructed view over the heathland, giving the property a distinctive character that is not commonly found.

The ground floor layout begins with an entrance through the front garden leading into the hall. The hall contains the meter cupboard, the staircase to the first floor, and a separate toilet room. From the hall, one enters the spacious and bright living room with an open kitchen. There is ample space here for both a sitting area and a dining area. The kitchen is simple in design and dates from approximately 1980, though the built-in appliances were updated in 2010. Buyers should anticipate that the kitchen will likely need replacement or significant updating to meet contemporary standards.

The first floor is accessed via the stairs in the hall and consists of a landing providing access to three bedrooms and the bathroom. Two of the bedrooms are located at the rear of the property and offer good dimensions. The third bedroom is smaller and positioned at the front of the house. As mentioned, two of the bedrooms benefit from a fine and free view over the Bussumerheide. The bathroom dates from 2007 and is compact in size, equipped with a shower and a washbasin. While functional, the bathroom may benefit from modernization depending on the preferences of the new owner.

The second floor comprises the attic space, which currently serves primarily as storage. The central heating installation is located here. Due to the sloped roof, the layout is practical with a central walkable section. At present, this floor is best suited for storage purposes. It is worth noting that the neighbors have installed a fixed staircase to their attic and added a large dormer window at the ridge height, which has created an additional bedroom or workspace. This demonstrates the potential that exists for this property, should a future owner wish to undertake a similar expansion. With such an addition, the living area could be increased from the current 84.3 square meters to more than 100 square meters.

The outdoor spaces of this property consist of both a front garden and a back garden. The back garden serves as the main garden and measures approximately 11 meters in depth and 6 meters in width, resulting in an area of around 66 square meters. This garden faces northeast and features a back entrance. Behind the row of houses, there are garages belonging to various properties. Although this particular house does not include a garage, the back entrance allows car access to the garden for deliveries or other purposes. The current owner rents a garage across the street for 210 euros per month. The listing agent has indicated that they can inquire with the owner about continuing this rental arrangement if the buyer is interested.

The front garden measures approximately 5 meters in depth and 6 meters in width, providing about 30 square meters of space. This garden faces south, which means it receives favorable sunlight. The combination of a south-facing front garden and a northeast-facing back garden means that residents can choose between sun and shade at different times of the day throughout the year.

In terms of technical specifications, the property has a mix of wooden and plastic window frames. The exterior woodwork was painted in 2021. The windows feature insulated glazing for the most part, though not throughout the entire property. The electrical system was renewed in 2010. The central heating boiler is an EHLE 17 F1200 gas-fired unit from 2007, which is owned rather than rented. The most recent maintenance of this boiler was performed in October 2025. Hot water is provided through both the central heating boiler and a separate gas water heater, which is also owned. A chimney flue was cleaned in 2000 but has not been used since that time.

The energy label is currently listed as a provisional E, with a note that it will be reassessed. The asking price is 450,000 euros, which is payable on a costs koper basis, meaning the buyer is responsible for transfer taxes and notary fees. This results in a price per square meter of approximately 5,294 euros based on the living area of 85 square meters. The total content of the property is 329 cubic meters, and the plot covers 161 square meters. Parking is available on the public road in the vicinity of the property.

This terraced house in Bussum Zuid represents a straightforward opportunity for buyers who are prepared to invest in modernization. The location near the Bussumerheide, the views from the upper floor, and the potential to expand the living area by adding a dormer window to the attic are clear advantages. The property is being offered with acceptance in consultation, providing flexibility regarding the moving date.
