Modern Semi-Detached Home with Luxury Finishes in Charming Schipluiden
Key Features
Upsides
- Excellent energy efficiency with Energy Label A valid until 2036, 14 solar panels with micro-inverters installed in 2023, and a heat recovery ventilation system that reduces energy costs.
- Modern comfort features including air conditioning in all three bedrooms, electric roller shutters on exterior doors, underfloor heating on the ground floor and in the bathroom, and a 2025 EV charging point on the driveway.
- Spacious and well-designed living areas with a 47 square meter living room with gas fireplace and a 26 square meter open kitchen with cooking island, bar, and high-end appliances including a Quooker and teppanyaki grill.
- Recently updated outdoor spaces with both front and back gardens completely landscaped in 2023, featuring terraces, a pergola, good privacy, and a private driveway with space for two vehicles.
- Attractive village location in Schipluiden with views of the Vlaardingsevaart waterway and a windmill, while maintaining good accessibility to the A4 highway and Delft center within 20 minutes by bike.
Downsides
- The central heating boiler is from 2010, making it approximately 15 years old and potentially approaching the end of its typical lifespan, which could require a significant replacement cost in the near future.
- The second bedroom is quite small at only 5 square meters, which limits its usefulness as a full bedroom and may be more suitable as a nursery, home office, or storage space.
- The backyard faces north according to the listing details, meaning it receives less direct sunlight throughout the day compared to south-facing gardens, which may be a consideration for those who enjoy outdoor living.
- No photographs are included of the 14 square meter garage or storage space, making it difficult to assess its current condition, layout, or actual usability despite its described features.
- The property has only two living floors with no mention of an attic or additional expansion possibilities, which may limit future flexibility for growing families who might need more space.
