Key Features
Description
This property is located at Langestraat 163 in the town of Genemuiden, specifically in the kern (center) area with the postal code 8281 AJ. The asking price for this home was set at 195,000 euros, which is a cost to buyer price (kosten koper), meaning the buyer is responsible for additional transaction costs such as notary fees and transfer tax on top of this amount.
The dwelling is classified as a corner house (hoekwoning) and falls under the category of a single family home (eengezinswoning). It was originally constructed in 1910, making it over a century old. Despite its age, the property has been maintained and updated over the years to remain functional and comfortable for modern living. The roof is a hip roof (schilddak) covered with traditional roof tiles.
In terms of living space, the property offers 56 square meters of usable floor area. The total plot size measures 110 square meters, and the volume of the home is 232 cubic meters. These figures indicate a compact living space that would typically suit a single person, a couple, or perhaps a small household. The home contains a total of two rooms, with one of these being designated as a bedroom. There is one bathroom located on the ground floor.
The energy label for this property is rated G, which is on the lower end of the energy efficiency scale in the Netherlands. This is not uncommon for homes built in the early twentieth century that have not undergone comprehensive energy renovation. The property does feature double glazing (dubbel glas), which provides some improvement over single pane windows in terms of insulation. Heating and hot water are both provided by a gas fired combination boiler (CV-ketel). The specific boiler installed is an Intergas Xtreme 36 model from 2022, which is relatively new and should provide reliable service. The boiler is owned by the current seller, meaning it transfers to the new owner as part of the property. Mechanical ventilation is installed in the home, which helps with air circulation and moisture management.
The layout of the home spans two living levels. Upon entering through the front door on the ground floor, one arrives in the entrance area that provides access to the living and dining room. The living space is described as light and offers sufficient room for both a seating area and a dining area. The dining area connects directly to the kitchen through an open plan layout, creating a sense of spaciousness and facilitating social interaction during meal preparation and dining. The kitchen is equipped with various built in and freestanding appliances. These include a combination oven (combi-oven), an extractor hood (afzuigkap), an induction cooktop (inductiekookplaat), and a dishwasher (vaatwasser). This selection of appliances covers the essential needs for daily cooking and food preparation.
Also situated on the ground floor is the bathroom, which has been neatly finished. The bathroom includes a walk in shower (inloopdouche), a vanity unit with sink (wastafelmeubel), and a toilet. Additionally, the bathroom has been configured with connections for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer. This placement of laundry facilities in the bathroom is a practical solution that keeps utility spaces consolidated. A separate CV room (boiler room) is also located on the ground floor to house the heating system.
The first floor of the home features a spacious landing area. According to the listing, this landing area offers the potential to create a workspace or home office setup. The single bedroom is also located on this floor. The description notes that the practical layout ensures optimal use of the available space on this level.
Outside, the property has a rear garden (achtertuin) that measures 53 square meters. The garden has been neatly paved, which makes it low maintenance and easy to care for. The dimensions of the garden are approximately 25 meters in depth and 4.25 meters in width, indicating a long and narrow garden typical of older town center properties. A notable feature of this garden is that it extends all the way to the Jaagpad, a path running behind the property. This means the home can be accessed from both the Langestraat at the front and the Jaagpad at the rear, providing convenient entry options. The garden is oriented towards the east.
Parking for the property is available through public on street parking in the surrounding area, as there is no dedicated private parking space or garage included with the home.
The location in the center of Genemuiden means that daily amenities are within walking distance. Supermarkets, a bakery, a greengrocer, and a butcher are all mentioned as being accessible on foot. Genemuiden is described as having a pleasant atmosphere with active community associations and good facilities, combining a village character with a central location in the region.
The listing notes that buyers of this property may be eligible for an additional starter loan (starterslening) from the municipality of Zwartewaterland. This type of loan is designed to help first time buyers who are unable to secure sufficient financing for a home purchase through regular mortgage channels alone. The listing also highlights that buyers under the age of 35 who purchase a home in 2026 are exempt from paying the one time transfer tax (overdrachtsbelasting), which is normally set at 2 percent of the purchase price. This exemption could result in significant savings for eligible young buyers.
The property status is listed as sold under reservation (verkocht onder voorbehoud), indicating that an agreement has been reached with a prospective buyer but certain conditions still need to be met before the sale becomes final. The kadastal identification for the property is GENEMUIDEN B 2735, and the ownership situation is full ownership (volle eigendom).
Transfer of the property is described as being by mutual agreement (in overleg), meaning the exact date of handover would be negotiated between buyer and seller rather than being fixed in advance. The listing does not specify any particular acceptance date or timeline for the transfer.
