Key Features
Description
This split-level terraced house is situated in the Vaartenbuurt-West neighborhood of Zoetermeer, at Lissenvaart 138. The property occupies a pleasant location adjacent to the water, offering residents a peaceful living environment while maintaining convenient access to the Stadshart shopping center and the Noord Aa recreational area. The surrounding infrastructure provides good connections to major cities via nearby highways.
The house was originally built in 1981 and has since been expanded with a roof extension, which has created additional living space on the upper floor. The total living area measures 132 square meters, spread across four levels. The plot covers 87 square meters, and the building has a volume of 476 cubic meters.
The entrance is located on the first floor level, accessed via a staircase leading to the hallway. Here you will find the meter cupboard, a separate toilet room, and a practical storage closet beneath the stairs. The kitchen is positioned at the front of this level and measures approximately 519 by 286 centimeters. It features a corner layout equipped with a gas cooktop, dishwasher, oven, microwave, and a refrigerator-freezer combination.
One level below, at garden level, is the living room. This space measures approximately 518 by 516 centimeters and benefits from excellent natural light thanks to large glass doors and three Velux skylights. The living room connects openly to a lower-situated basement area measuring approximately 504 by 389 centimeters. This basement space is currently being used as a dining room but could alternatively serve as a bedroom, playroom, or hobby space. Adjacent to this area is a storage room measuring approximately 368 by 121 centimeters.
The backyard is accessible from the living room and faces east, meaning it receives morning and early afternoon sun. The garden measures approximately 18 square meters with dimensions of 3.50 meters deep and 5.20 meters wide. A notable feature is the direct water-side location, offering a pleasant view and the presence of a sizable sun terrace.
The first floor contains two spacious bedrooms that span the full width of the house, made possible by the later roof extension. The front bedroom measures approximately 515 by 320 centimeters, translating to roughly 16 square meters. The rear bedroom has a total size of approximately 515 by 301 centimeters, also around 16 square meters, though it is currently divided into two sections. Centrally located between these bedrooms is the bathroom, measuring approximately 274 by 170 centimeters. The bathroom is fitted with a bathtub that also functions as a shower, a toilet, and a vanity unit.
The second floor is reached via a staircase leading to a landing where the washing machine, dryer, and central heating boiler are installed. The boiler is an Intergas gas-fired combination unit from 2019, which is owned rather than leased. On this level there is an additional bedroom measuring approximately 317 by 222 centimeters, measured from 1.50 meters height, featuring a high ridge that gives the space a characteristic attic room feel. This room provides approximately 7 square meters of usable floor space.
In total, the property offers four bedrooms, with the largest being the basement area at approximately 20 square meters, which is currently configured as a dining room. The other three bedrooms measure approximately 16, 16, and 7 square meters respectively.
The property has received several sustainability improvements in recent years. Floor insulation was installed in 2022, and partial roof insulation was added in 2020. Six solar panels are present on the roof, though these are under a lease arrangement rather than owned outright. Thanks to these measures, the property holds an energy label C. The windows feature a combination of partial double glazing and HR-glass.
Parking is available in a nearby shared parking garage, with the annual VvE contribution for this facility amounting to approximately 250 euros. The property is connected to fiber optic cable for internet services.
The Vaartenbuurt-West neighborhood offers various amenities within close proximity. Several primary and secondary schools are located in the area, along with multiple neighborhood shopping centers and a district park. A RandstadRail station provides public transport connections, making it convenient to travel to surrounding cities without relying on a car.
The property is offered at a price of 475,000 euros, with the buyer responsible for the associated transfer costs. This translates to approximately 3,598 euros per square meter of living space. The acceptance date can be negotiated, and the property status is currently available.
The legal description refers to the property as ZOETERMEER C 2972, with full ownership (volle eigendom) registered in the land registry. The roof consists of a composite structure covered with bituminous roofing material and tiles.
This split-level home presents an opportunity for buyers seeking a property with a distinctive layout in a location that combines waterside living with urban convenience.
