This exceptional detached property is located at Moerasvaren 54 in the desirable Gors-Zuid district of Purmerend. The residence offers a unique and prestigious living opportunity, characterized by its villa-like allure and distinctive layout. The property is situated on a substantial plot of 720 square meters of private land and features a prime location directly facing the water. This specific type of home is known as a kangoeroewoning or kangaroo house. This concept combines two self-contained living units under a single roof, often connected via an internal door. It provides an excellent solution for families wishing to live close together while maintaining privacy, making it ideal for multigenerational living or sharing household expenses while facilitating independent living for older relatives.

The interior layout is designed to accommodate this dual-living arrangement comfortably. On the ground floor, visitors are welcomed into a spacious hallway featuring a toilet area, a meter cupboard, and a striking hardwood staircase. The ground floor includes a riant living room featuring an open fireplace and a sliding door that opens to a covered terrace, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. Adjacent to the living room is a dining area with a lowered ceiling. A master bedroom is conveniently situated on the ground floor at the front of the property. The kitchen on this level is closed off and provides access to a bathroom which includes a separate second toilet. This area also leads to a utility room or hobby space and a second bedroom, which was originally the integrated garage and measures approximately 22 square meters.

Ascending to the first floor, one finds a generous landing that grants access to a second living room equipped with an open kitchen. This upper level is designed to function as an independent unit and includes three bedrooms, which were previously designed with loggias. A complete bathroom featuring a sauna serves this floor. The second floor consists of an attic space accessible from the first-floor living room, providing additional storage capacity. Regarding the outdoor spaces, the property features a garden that surrounds the house, designed to be low maintenance with mature greenery. It is located along a recreational water body. The garden includes a large wooden storage shed and a piled terrace with a roofed section. One of the specific balconies, an internal loggia type, has been enclosed to create extra indoor living space, though the listing notes that this could easily be restored to its original open state.

The building itself is a detached villa built in 1979 with a traditional and solid construction. The exterior painting is scheduled for 2025, according to the listing. The property has a volume of nearly 835 cubic meters, excluding the shed. Windows and frames are made of plastic. The energy efficiency is rated with a Label C, and the property is fully insulated. Heating is provided through hot air heating and the open fireplace. Specific accessibility features are present, making the home accessible for people with disabilities and the elderly.
