Key Features
Description
Located in the Krakeelpolder district of Delft, this spacious terraced family home at Litouwen 2 offers comfortable living in a modern and child-friendly residential area. The property is conveniently situated within approximately ten minutes walking distance from both the historic center of Delft and the main train station, making it an excellent choice for families and commuters alike.
The property enjoys a pleasant position with a car-free view at the front facing a green area with benches and water features. This creates a peaceful atmosphere at the entrance of the home, away from traffic noise and providing an attractive streetscape. The current owner has recently completed several notable improvements to bring the property fully up to date, meaning the house is essentially move-in ready for the next occupants.
Upon entering through the front door, you arrive in the reception hall which provides access to a modern toilet room fitted with a toilet and small washbasin. The staircase to the first floor is also located in the hall. A distinctive industrial-style black steel door leads from the hall into the living room, adding a contemporary design element to the interior.
The living room is oriented towards the rear of the property and benefits from pleasant natural light entering through the wide rear doors. The room is comfortably equipped with underfloor heating, ensuring a warm and inviting atmosphere during the colder months. A practical storage closet, which can serve as a stair or provision closet, is built into the living area. The rear doors open directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
The kitchen was installed in 2023 and features a luxurious design in an L-shaped layout with additional cabinet space along the wall. A kitchen island has been incorporated into the design, providing both extra workspace and a casual dining or social area. The kitchen is equipped with high-quality built-in appliances, reflecting the attention to detail in the recent renovation. These include a Quooker instant boiling water tap, a Siemens combination and steam oven, a wine climate cabinet for wine enthusiasts, and an induction cooktop with an integrated BORA extraction system that eliminates the need for a traditional overhead extractor hood.
The first floor can be reached via the staircase in the entrance hall. The landing provides access to three bedrooms and the modern bathroom. The bathroom is well-appointed with a wall-hung toilet serving as a second toilet in the property, a vanity unit with washbasin, a bathtub, and a separate shower enclosure. This layout allows multiple family members to use the bathroom facilities simultaneously, which is particularly practical for morning routines.
The second floor houses the fourth bedroom along with a very practical laundry room. The central heating combination boiler is also located on this floor. The fourth bedroom benefits from natural light from two sides, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. Access to the flat roof is available from this level, which can be arranged as a roof terrace to provide additional outdoor space with views over the surrounding area.
The rear garden measures approximately eleven meters in depth and features a freestanding wooden storage shed. A back entrance provides convenient access to the garden without having to pass through the house, which is useful for activities such as gardening, cycling, or receiving deliveries. The exact dimensions of the back garden are listed as 7.93 meters deep and 5.00 meters wide, totaling approximately 40 square meters.
The property was originally built in 1992 or 1993 and has a total living area of 122 square meters spread across three living levels. The building volume is 428 cubic meters. The plot size is 105 square meters. Additional spaces include 15 square meters of building-related outdoor space and 6 square meters of external storage.
Significant attention has been paid to the energy efficiency and technical condition of the property in recent years. The property has been awarded an Energy Label A rating. HR++ double glazing was installed throughout in 2023. The flat roofs were renewed in 2023. The crawl space beneath the property has been insulated. The entire electrical distribution board, all wiring, and all switches and socket outlets were replaced in 2023. A new mechanical ventilation unit was installed in 2023. The exterior paintwork was carried out in 2024 or 2025, ensuring the outside of the property looks fresh and well-maintained.
Heating and hot water are provided by a gas-fired ATAG combination boiler model TY28E20H I28ECZ, which was installed in 2020 and is owned by the current owner. The property features roof insulation, wall insulation, and floor insulation as part of its overall energy efficiency measures.
An important financial consideration is that the ground lease (erfpacht) has been perpetually paid off, meaning no periodic ground lease payments are required. This represents a significant financial benefit compared to properties where ground lease payments are still due.
Parking is available through public parking spaces in the area, with parking permits required. The property does not include dedicated private parking.
The asking price is 595,000 euros, which translates to approximately 4,877 euros per square meter of living space. The property is offered with a costs koper (buyer pays) condition, meaning the buyer is responsible for transfer taxes, notary fees, and other transaction costs. The acceptance date is to be negotiated, providing flexibility for the buyer.
This property combines the advantages of a modern, well-maintained home with recent upgrades throughout, a convenient location near Delft center and public transport, and a pleasant living environment with views of greenery and water. The four-bedroom layout and child-friendly neighborhood make it particularly suitable for families looking for a comfortable home in one of the most attractive cities in the Netherlands.
