Modern 3-Room Apartment in Monumental De Coligny Complex
Key Features
Description
Welcome to Louise de Colignystraat 9-B, a remarkable transformation project located in the heart of Doetinchem. This unique property, formerly known as the national tax office, is being meticulously converted into a stunning residential complex called De Coligny. The building carries a rich history and has been recognized as a municipal monument since 2012, adding a layer of historical significance to modern living.
Situated on the second floor of this impressive building, this three-room apartment offers approximately 82 square meters of comfortable living space. The transformation project comprises a total of 13 brand new apartments, each featuring its own storage space and parking facility. This particular unit presents an excellent opportunity for those seeking contemporary living within a characterful setting.
Upon entering the apartment, you are welcomed into a spacious hallway that includes a separate toilet and provides access to all other rooms. The living area is generously proportioned, offering ample space for both a comfortable seating area and a dining table. The open layout creates a sense of flow and connectivity throughout the main living space, making it ideal for both relaxation and entertaining guests.
The kitchen area has been thoughtfully prepared with all necessary connections already in place. It is worth noting that the apartments are delivered without a fitted kitchen, which provides you with the unique opportunity to design and install a kitchen that perfectly matches your personal taste and lifestyle requirements. This flexibility allows you to create a culinary space that truly feels like your own, with the freedom to select appliances, countertops, and cabinetry that suit your preferences.
The apartment features two well-sized bedrooms, providing versatility in how you configure your living space. Whether you require a dedicated guest room, a home office, or additional sleeping quarters for family members, the layout accommodates various lifestyle needs. The bedroom area also includes a fully completed bathroom and toilet, fitted with modern sanitary fixtures and quality tiling. Additionally, a technical room is conveniently located within this section of the apartment, housing the essential building systems.
Modern comfort and sustainability are at the forefront of this development. Each apartment is equipped with an individual heat pump that works in conjunction with underfloor heating and cooling systems. This ensures a pleasant indoor climate throughout the year, keeping you warm during winter months and comfortably cool during summer. The property boasts an excellent energy label rating of A, reflecting its high standards of energy efficiency and environmental consideration.
The building features comprehensive insulation, including roof insulation, wall insulation, and floor insulation. This full insulation package contributes to the overall energy performance and helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures while minimizing energy costs. A heat recovery system and electric boiler for hot water further enhance the energy efficiency of the property, making it both environmentally responsible and cost-effective to run.
Interior finishing touches have been carefully considered to provide a balance between move-in readiness and personal customization. The walls are delivered wallpaper-ready, and the ceilings are prepared for painting. This approach allows you to immediately begin personalizing your new home according to your preferred color schemes and interior design preferences. The freedom to choose your own finishes ensures that the apartment truly becomes a reflection of your personal style from day one.
In addition to the main living space, this apartment includes an external storage area of approximately 17 square meters located in the basement. This substantial storage space is equipped with electricity and provides an excellent solution for storing belongings that are not needed on a daily basis, such as seasonal items, sports equipment, or hobby supplies. A private parking space is also included with the property, located on the exterior grounds of the complex. For those requiring additional parking, a second space may be available for optional purchase, subject to availability.
Visitor parking has been thoughtfully provided with three designated spaces at the front of the building, ensuring that your guests can always park conveniently when visiting. This attention to practical details reflects the overall quality and consideration that has gone into the planning of this residential complex.
The location of De Coligny is truly exceptional and represents one of the key selling points of this development. Situated on the quiet Louise de Colignystraat in the heart of the historic De Pas residential area, the property offers the perfect balance between peaceful living and urban convenience. The vibrant center of Doetinchem is located merely 500 meters away, providing easy access to a wide array of shops, restaurants, cultural attractions, and essential services. Everything you need for comfortable daily living is within easy walking distance.
The De Pas neighborhood is a distinctive pre-war residential area steeped in history and characterized by its beautiful homes and tree-lined streets. Living in this area means becoming part of a community that values both heritage and quality of life. The combination of historical charm and modern amenities creates a living environment that is both inspiring and practical. The neighborhood offers a sense of permanence and character that is increasingly rare in modern residential developments.
The Homeowners Association, known as VvE in the Netherlands, for the complex is properly established and professionally maintained. All essential elements are in place, including KvK registration, annual meetings, periodic contributions, a reserve fund for future maintenance, a comprehensive maintenance plan, and building insurance. This well-organized association ensures that the complex will remain in excellent condition and that any future maintenance or improvements can be funded appropriately.
The property also comes with a Woningborg Warranty Certificate, providing additional assurance regarding the quality and construction of your new home. This warranty offers protection against potential construction defects, giving you peace of mind with your investment. The combination of quality construction, comprehensive insulation, and modern heating systems makes this apartment a sound choice for long-term living.
The building itself features a traditional gable roof covered with tiles, maintaining the architectural character of the original structure while protecting against the elements. A lift provides convenient access to all floors, ensuring accessibility for all residents regardless of mobility considerations. The property is also equipped with fiber optic cable connections for modern telecommunications and high-speed internet, as well as natural ventilation systems for healthy indoor air quality.
The transformation of this former government building into residential apartments represents an innovative approach to urban development and sustainable construction. By repurposing existing structures, the project contributes to sustainable building practices while preserving the architectural heritage of Doetinchem. The result is a collection of homes that offer the best of both worlds: historical character and contemporary comfort seamlessly integrated.
The apartment complex offers diversity in its range of units, from cozy two-room apartments to more spacious layouts, including one impressive two-story apartment. Five of the apartments are located on the ground floor and feature their own private gardens, providing outdoor living space for those units. While this particular apartment does not include a private garden, the surrounding neighborhood offers pleasant green spaces and the nearby city center provides additional recreational opportunities.
This apartment at Louise de Colignystraat 9-B presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a brand new home in a unique and characterful setting. The asking price of €374,500 vrij op naam translates to approximately €4,567 per square meter of living space, which represents competitive value for a newly transformed, energy-efficient apartment in this desirable location. The acceptance date is flexible and available by negotiation with the selling agent.
