Description
This residence is located in the Floriande neighbourhood, a well established residential area that offers a quiet streetscape and easy access to local amenities. The building was constructed in 2001 and has been maintained with attention to insulation and energy performance. The apartment holds an energy label B, indicating a high level of energy efficiency for a property of its age. The living space measures approximately 86 square metres and is complemented by a generous balcony of about 18 square metres that faces the northwest direction, providing afternoon and evening sunlight.
The entrance to the complex is shared by all residents and includes a doorbell panel, a video intercom system and individual mailboxes. Inside the entrance hall there is a secured lift that serves the floors of the building. A separate emergency staircase is positioned opposite the main entrance, offering an additional means of egress. The apartment is situated on the first floor above ground level, which is often described as the second floor in Dutch terminology.
Upon entering the private portion of the home, a spacious hallway leads to the main living areas. The utility rooms are located at the front of the apartment. A dedicated meter cupboard contains a modern electrical installation with five separate circuits and fiber optic cabling for high speed internet. Adjacent to the meter cupboard there is a toilet equipped with a small wash basin, providing a convenient guest facility. A storage room houses the central heating boiler, an Agpo HR model from 2001 that is owned by the owner and not part of a shared system. The space also offers the possibility to install a washing machine connection should the owner wish to add a laundry facility.
The bathroom is finished with a walk in shower and a vanity unit that includes a sink. A washing machine connection is already present, allowing for the installation of a domestic washer without additional plumbing work. The master bedroom measures roughly 14 square metres, offering ample space for a double bed and additional furniture. The second bedroom is slightly smaller at about 13 square metres, still providing sufficient room for a single or double bed. The current layout includes two bedrooms, but the floor plan allows for the creation of a third bedroom without major structural changes, making the apartment adaptable to changing family needs.
The living room benefits from large windows that let in abundant natural light and give direct access to the expansive balcony. The balcony extends outward for 18 square metres and is positioned on the northwest side of the building, ensuring that it receives sunlight during the afternoon and early evening hours. The open kitchen is integrated into the living area and is equipped with a range of built‑in appliances, including an oven, a microwave, a refrigerator with a freezer compartment, a gas hob with an extractor hood and a dishwasher. Throughout the apartment a laminate floor covers all rooms, providing a uniform and low maintenance surface.
In addition to the private indoor space, the owner receives a dedicated storage unit on the ground floor of the building. Parking is available on the private parking area adjacent to the complex, and the sale includes one assigned parking space that is located close to the entrance. The owners association, known as the VVE, is described as healthy and active. The monthly contribution is currently around 270 euros and covers savings for major maintenance, insurance for the building and other communal costs. Documentation regarding the VVE is available to prospective buyers.
The location of the property offers a range of conveniences within walking or cycling distance. Two neighbourhood shopping centres, ’t Paradijs and Floriande, provide daily grocery options, including supermarkets and fresh food stores. For a broader selection of shops, restaurants, a theatre and a cinema, the Vier Meren shopping centre can be reached by bicycle in a short ride. Public transport is well served, with R net bus stops situated directly in front of the building. These routes connect to Haarlem, the Hoofddorp train station, Schiphol Airport and the city of Amsterdam, and the nearest stop is approximately 600 metres away. Educational facilities are also nearby, with primary schools, secondary schools, childcare centres and the international school Optimist International located within a short travel distance.
Recreational opportunities are abundant in the surrounding area. The Haarlemmermeerse Bos, a large forested recreation area, is close by and offers walking and cycling trails. The Boseilanden islands and the Toolenburger Plas lake, which features small beaches, two restaurants and facilities for water sports and walking, are also within easy reach. The property thus combines the convenience of urban transport and shopping with access to natural leisure spaces.
Overall, the apartment presents a well balanced offering of space, location and amenities. The combination of a sizeable living area, a large balcony, a private parking place and the potential to add a third bedroom makes it suitable for a variety of household configurations. The energy efficient construction and the recent B energy label contribute to lower running costs and a reduced environmental footprint. The active VVE ensures that communal areas are maintained and that there is a financial reserve for future major repairs. Prospective buyers can view floor plans, a sales video and 360 degree photographs to gain a comprehensive impression of the home before arranging a personal visit.
