Upsides

  • South facing garden that receives full sunlight, ideal for outdoor activities and family use.
  • Close proximity to schools, childcare, shopping centre and nature reserve, providing convenient daily life amenities.
  • Affordable Purchase Scheme with a rent free first year and tax deductible ground rent, reducing the entry cost for buyers.
  • Potential to add a fourth bedroom in the attic by installing a dormer window and a permanent staircase, increasing future living space.
  • Modernised kitchen with built‑in appliances and a gas boiler installed in 2022, offering ready‑to‑use functionality.

Downsides

  • Ground lease arrangement means the land is not owned outright and requires an ongoing monthly payment.
  • The attic is currently accessed only by a ladder, and converting it into a full bedroom would need additional construction and cost.
  • Energy label D indicates moderate energy efficiency, which may result in higher utility costs compared to higher rated homes.
  • The property is a terraced house, so it may share walls with neighbours, limiting privacy compared to a detached dwelling.
  • Only one bathroom is provided, which could be a limitation for larger families or frequent guests.

Description

This property is situated in a quiet and child friendly residential neighbourhood in the southern part of Bussum. The house is a classic terraced home built in 1958 and offers a comfortable living environment for families and remote workers alike. The total living area is reported as approximately 81 square metres, while the overall usable floor space, including the attic, reaches about 105 square metres. The plot measures 160 square metres and includes both a front garden and a south facing rear garden measuring roughly 44 square metres.

Upon arrival the residence presents a modest front garden that leads to a well maintained entrance. Inside the ground floor a spacious hall welcomes visitors. The hall provides access to a modernised utility cupboard and a small toilet with a hand basin. To the left of the hall a bright living and dining area opens up. Large windows allow natural light to fill the room and a door leads directly to the rear garden. The layout of the living space is practical for everyday family life and also suitable for a home office setting.

The kitchen is positioned adjacent to the living area and is equipped with a range of built‑in appliances. These include a gas cooktop, an extractor hood, a dishwasher, a refrigerator, a freezer and a microwave. The kitchen’s design permits easy movement between cooking, dining and the garden. Both the kitchen and the living room have direct access to the backyard, making indoor‑outdoor flow seamless.

A staircase from the ground floor leads to the first floor. On this level a landing gives access to three bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms are of standard size for a family home and one bedroom features fitted built‑in wardrobes that provide additional storage. The bathroom on this floor contains a walk‑in shower and a vanity unit. A separate toilet is also available on the ground floor, offering convenience for guests.

Beyond the main living levels a loft space is reachable via a ladder. The loft consists of a front area that houses the central heating boiler and a mechanical ventilation system, as well as storage space. The roof is currently a simple gable covered with tiles, but the presence of a dormer window opening provides the possibility of creating an additional fourth bedroom. Realising this option would require the installation of a permanent staircase, a change that could increase the usable space and add value.

The rear garden is oriented to the south and receives abundant sunlight throughout the day. The garden offers ample room for children to play, for outdoor dining or for a small garden oasis. At the back of the garden stands a freestanding stone shed. The shed provides secure storage for bicycles, garden tools and also accommodates a washing machine and dryer. A convenient back entrance allows direct access from the garden to the interior of the house, enhancing the practicality of daily routines.

The location of the home is one of its strongest attributes. It lies within walking distance of the Bussummerheide nature reserve, giving residents easy access to green space and walking trails. In the immediate vicinity there is a shopping centre on Koekoeklaan that hosts a supermarket, a bakery, a butcher, a greengrocer, a drugstore and a liquor shop. The area also offers a variety of schools, childcare facilities, a local theatre, an arthouse cinema and several restaurants. Public transport is well served by the Bussum South railway station, and the major highways A1 and A27 are quickly reachable, facilitating commuting to larger cities.

The property is sold under an Affordable Purchase Scheme. Under this arrangement the land is not owned outright but is leased on a ground lease basis. The monthly ground rent is €322.88. The first year of the lease is rent free and a discount is applied in the subsequent years, gradually reducing until the full amount is payable. The ground rent is tax deductible, and the scheme restarts for the next buyer if the property is sold. This structure can make the purchase financially attractive for families seeking to enter the property market.

The house is equipped with natural ventilation and cable television connections. Energy performance is rated D, with double glazed windows and a gas fired combination boiler installed in 2022. The building is solidly constructed with a tiled gable roof and retains many of its original structural elements while benefiting from modern updates such as the refreshed utility cupboard and kitchen appliances.

Overall the residence offers a blend of classic Dutch terraced house character, practical layout, garden space and a location that balances quiet residential living with easy access to amenities and transport links. The potential to expand the loft into a fourth bedroom adds flexibility for growing families or for creating a dedicated home office. The Affordable Purchase Scheme further enhances the appeal by reducing the initial financial burden associated with land acquisition.
