Key Features
Description
Located on Lathyrusstraat in the De Bilt Oost neighborhood, this corner house offers a combination of historical character and modern living comfort. The property dates back to 1920 but has undergone significant renovations and expansions that have transformed it into a contemporary family home while carefully preserving its authentic appearance.
The ground floor features an entrance through a covered porch, providing sheltered access regardless of weather conditions. The hallway includes a toilet and leads to the generous living room, which has warm wooden flooring throughout. Natural light enters from multiple directions thanks to windows at the front, sliding doors to the garden, and additional skylights in the extension. A wood stove serves as a focal point in the living area, adding warmth and atmosphere during colder months.
The open kitchen is integrated into the living space and includes a sink island that also functions as a practical workspace or casual dining area. The kitchen is equipped with modern built-in appliances including an induction cooktop with extractor hood, a Quooker instant hot water tap, an oven, refrigerator, freezer, and dishwasher. This layout creates a social cooking environment where conversation with family or guests flows naturally.
The first floor contains two spacious bedrooms and a complete bathroom. The main bedroom is situated at the rear of the property and features two double windows that allow ample daylight. The second bedroom on this level is also of good proportions. Between these rooms, a storage cupboard provides practical space for household items. The bathroom on this floor has underfloor heating, a walk-in shower, a vanity unit, and a toilet, making it a full bathroom suitable for daily use by residents or guests.
The second floor was added during later renovations and houses two additional bedrooms, both of good size and fitted with large Velux skylights that ensure plenty of natural light. The landing on this floor accommodates the central heating installation, the electric boiler, and a washing machine connection, keeping utility functions centralized and out of living spaces. The second bathroom on this floor includes a bathtub with shower option, a vanity unit, and a toilet, providing convenience for the bedrooms on this level.
The garden faces southwest, which means it receives sunlight for a significant portion of the day, particularly during afternoon and evening hours. Measuring approximately 60 square meters with a depth of 12.10 meters and a width of 4.92 meters, the outdoor space includes a terrace and a comfortable lounge area suitable for relaxation or outdoor dining. A freestanding stone storage shed at the rear of the garden offers space for garden tools, bicycles, or hobby equipment. The external storage space is listed at 6 square meters.
The property has achieved an energy label A rating, indicating good energy efficiency. This is supported by roof insulation, wall insulation, floor insulation, and double glazing throughout. Additionally, eight solar panels were installed in 2021, contributing to reduced energy costs. The central heating system is a Remeha Calenta gas-fired combination boiler, and hot water is provided through both the CV system and a 120-liter electric boiler.
The Lathyrusstraat is described as a quiet and child-friendly street where outdoor play is common. The location offers proximity to a forested area within walking distance, and shops and other amenities are nearby. De Bilt is situated directly adjacent to Utrecht, making commuting by bicycle, public transport, or car relatively straightforward.
With a total living area of 123 square meters spread across three floors, four full bedrooms, and two complete bathrooms, the property is well suited for families. The plot covers 167 square meters, and the total volume of the building is 437 cubic meters. Parking is available on public roads in the vicinity.
The extension at the rear was completed in 2009 and measures 7 meters in depth, significantly expanding the ground floor living space. The additional floor was added in 2013, adding substantial living area to the property. These modifications have transformed what was originally a 1920s corner house into a substantially larger family residence.
Internal features include panel doors throughout the property, contributing to the preserved character. The property has both mechanical and natural ventilation systems, as well as a smoke channel for the wood stove and TV cable connections. Air conditioning is also listed among the provisions.
The asking price is 725,000 euros, which translates to approximately 5,894 euros per square meter of living space. The property is offered with costs borne by the buyer, which is standard practice in the Dutch housing market. Transfer is available by mutual agreement, allowing flexibility in the moving date.
The cadastral designation is DE BILT D 6554, with full ownership status. The property is classified as an existing corner house with a composite roof covered with bituminous roofing material and tiles.
