Charming home in the Blauwe Dorp with a sunny garden

Welcome to this charming and atmospheric residence located at Meidoornpad 46 in the Bloemenbuurt district of Groningen. This property is situated in the unique and highly sought after neighborhood known as the Blauwe Dorp. Historically, this area was home to a large part of the Groningen police corps, but today it has evolved into a distinctive residential district where people of all ages feel at home. The Blauwe Dorp is a beloved neighborhood for both locals and tourists, celebrated for its own specific atmosphere and appearance. The architecture is inspired by the garden villages of the early twentieth century, featuring uniform facades in colors such as ochre and a warm green blue. These distinctive colors contribute significantly to the appeal of the location. The entire area enjoys the status of a protected cityscape, ensuring that this unique piece of city history and its character are well preserved. Thanks to the efforts of various residents in the past to secure this status, you can now enjoy a wonderful living environment in a historically significant setting.

The warm and friendly ambiance of the neighborhood is reflected in the home itself, both literally and figuratively. The house offers a cozy feeling while simultaneously providing surprising freedom of movement and space. To ensure a high level of comfort, the property has been equipped with insulating glazing and floor heating. The low rise nature of the surrounding buildings allows the sun to enter the home easily, creating a bright interior. The house contains everything one needs for daily life, including a spacious kitchen with seating options, a large bedroom, and a convenient storage attic. With both a front and back garden, along with a storage shed, you can always find a pleasant spot outdoors, whether you prefer the sun or the shade.

Although the charm of the residence is distinctly pre war, the living comfort has been updated to meet modern standards. This is largely due to an extensive renovation round that took place in 2009 and 2010. During this renovation, insulating glazing was installed in the form of HR++ glass placed in new window frames with modern hanging and locking mechanisms. A significant advantage of living here is the monthly contribution of 59.48 euros to the management association. This fee means you do not have to worry about major maintenance of the exterior, such as painting work or roof renovations. These tasks are organized collectively, ensuring worry free living.

The worry free nature of the property extends to the amenities inside the home. The previously mentioned floor heating provides pleasant warmth for your feet. The sanitary facilities include a floating toilet and a spacious bathroom complete with a washing machine connection. The kitchen is practical and equipped with built in appliances. Should you wish to make the property more sustainable, for example by switching to electric cooking, you are informed that the subsidies intended for this purpose can still be applied for.

The beautiful warm colors of the houses are enhanced by the abundance of mature greenery in the neighborhood. In the spring, the pink blossom of the cherry trees contrasts beautifully against the red brickwork and roof tiles. Birds feel at home in the tall trees which are visible from both the front and back of the property. They can even be seen landing on the young pear tree located near the kitchen window. When you walk out of the street, you head straight towards the Pioenpark. The rose garden in this park is certainly worth a visit. The park also houses the community center Bij van Houten, built in the Amsterdam School style. Both the park and the community center have recently been renovated and fit perfectly with the pleasant neighborhood.

Furthermore, all amenities are located close by. Shops, a general practitioner, and a dentist are easily accessible. The inner city of Groningen is also easy to reach, either on foot or by bicycle. The property is a corner house built in 1920. It has a saddle roof covered with tiles. The living area is 53 square meters, while the plot covers 81 square meters. The house has two living layers and an attic. The energy label is currently F, and the property has double glazing. Heating and hot water are provided by a central heating boiler from the brand Atag, which is owned by the property. The ownership situation involves the property being burdened by leasehold and superstructure. Parking is available in the public area. This residence offers a unique opportunity to live in a special part of Groningen with a rich history and a strong community feel.
