Spacious terraced house with west-facing garden and potential for extra bedrooms
Key Features
Description
This terraced house is situated in the popular residential area called De Drait in Drachten. The property is located on Moezel and offers a solid foundation for families looking for a home with room to grow and customize. The surrounding neighborhood is particularly family friendly, with a children's farm called De Naturij, a playground, primary schools, and a renovated shopping center all within walking distance. The center of Drachten and the main roads are also easily accessible from this location.
The house was built in 1978 and stands on a plot of 155 square meters. The total living area measures 103 square meters, with an additional 28 square meters of indoor utility space and 10 square meters of external storage space attached to the building. The total volume of the house is 466 cubic meters. The property has full ownership, meaning it is built on owned land rather than leasehold.
Upon entering the house, you arrive in the hallway which provides access to the meter cupboard, the toilet, and the staircase to the upper floors. The living room features a distinctive Z shape, which creates an interesting spatial layout. A PVC floor has been installed throughout this area. Large windows allow plenty of natural light to enter the space during the day. The half open kitchen is designed in a modern and clean style and comes equipped with various built in appliances including an oven, a cooktop, and a dishwasher.
Behind the kitchen there is a practical attached utility room that also serves as storage space. This area has room for a washing machine and dryer, and there is a convenient storage attic above this space for additional items that need to be kept out of the way.
The first floor can be reached via the staircase from the hallway. The landing provides access to three spacious bedrooms, giving the current layout a total of five rooms. The modern bathroom on this floor is fully equipped with a walk in shower, a washbasin, and a second toilet, making it practical for daily family life.
A fixed staircase leads to the second floor. This space is currently used as storage but offers significant potential. The room is large and has a high ceiling, making it well suited for conversion into one or even two additional bedrooms. This flexibility is particularly valuable for growing families who may need more sleeping space in the future.
The backyard is positioned on the west side of the property, which means you can enjoy the evening sun after a day of work. The garden is not overlooked by neighboring properties, providing a sense of privacy. A canopy has been installed in the garden, creating a pleasant covered outdoor seating area. There is also a freestanding wooden shed for storing bicycles and gardening equipment. The garden is accessible via a rear path.
The backyard measures 40 square meters with a depth of 11.69 meters and a width of 3.46 meters. Parking is available directly behind the house on a public parking area, which is a convenient arrangement for residents.
In terms of energy efficiency, the property has been awarded an energy label B. The house benefits from roof insulation, wall insulation, and double glazing. An important upcoming improvement is the full replacement of all glazing with high quality HR++ glass, scheduled for February 2026. This upgrade will further improve the energy performance of the home.
Heating and hot water are provided by a gas fired combi boiler from the brand Intergas. This boiler was installed in 2014 and is owned by the property owner, meaning it will transfer to the new owner as part of the sale.
The property is connected to fiber optic cable for internet and also has a TV cable connection. Ventilation is achieved through a natural ventilation system.
The roof is a gable roof covered with tiles, which is a typical construction for Dutch homes from this period. The house is classified as existing construction and is a standard terraced house type.
The asking price for this property is 325,000 euros, which is payable in addition to the standard purchase costs such as transfer tax and notary fees. This translates to approximately 3,155 euros per square meter of living space. The property is available and the preferred transfer date can be discussed with the seller.
The Drait neighborhood in Drachten is a well established residential area that has proven popular with families over the years. The combination of local amenities, green spaces, and good accessibility makes it a practical choice for those with children. The proximity to De Naturij in particular adds a recreational element that appeals to many buyers in this segment.
This property presents itself as a family home with a solid basis and clear potential for further customization and expansion. The existing modern kitchen and bathroom mean that major renovation work is not immediately necessary, while the second floor offers possibilities for those who want to increase the number of bedrooms. The upcoming window replacement will also contribute to lower energy costs and improved comfort in the coming years.
