Spacious Drive-in Home with Unique Layout and Sunny Garden in Uithoorn
Key Features
Upsides
- The property features a unique and spacious layout with the main living room on the first floor offering balconies on both sides and a free view over greenery.
- There is a high degree of privacy and no direct rear neighbors because the backyard borders a green strip.
- The location in the child-friendly De Legmeer neighborhood is quiet yet offers excellent accessibility to public transport including the tram line to Amsterdam and major highways.
- The home is energy efficient with energy label A, nine solar panels, and full underfloor heating throughout the property.
Downsides
- The living room is located on the first floor rather than the ground floor, separated from the kitchen, which may be inconvenient for some residents or those with mobility issues.
- The number of bedrooms is currently two, reduced from an original three, which limits the capacity for larger families compared to the total size of the house might suggest.
- As a drive-in end-terrace house built in 1974, it is part of a row and despite renovations, older construction methods may still require maintenance.
- The kitchen and dining area are on the ground floor while the lounge is upstairs, requiring the use of stairs to move between cooking and relaxing areas.
Description
Welcome to this spacious and ready to move drive-in family home located at Muur 30 in the town of Uithoorn. This property presents a distinctive living arrangement characterized by a split level layout, generous living spaces, and a pleasant outlook. The house is positioned on a quiet dead-end street in the popular and family-friendly residential area of De Legmeer. With a total living area of approximately 128 square meters, this end terrace home offers ample room for comfortable living while being fully insulated and equipped with solar panels to achieve an energy label A.
Upon arriving at the property, you are greeted by a spacious front garden which includes a private driveway. This allows for parking on your own premises, a significant convenience in this residential area. The drive-in nature of the home means you can enter the house directly from your parking spot or the street. The entrance hall is practical and includes a cloakroom area, a meter cupboard, and a modern guest toilet fitted with a washbasin. From the hall, you have access to the staircase leading to the upper floors, the living kitchen, and a surprisingly large internal storage room.
The internal storage room on the ground floor is approximately 15 square meters in size. This space is highly versatile and currently features connections for laundry appliances. However, its size and location make it an excellent candidate for a home office, a practice room for professionals working from home, a hobby room, or even an extra bedroom should the need arise. Having this substantial utility space on the ground floor adds a layer of functionality to the home that is often missing in standard properties.
The ground floor is dominated by the spacious and attractive living kitchen. This room serves as the heart of the home and is oriented towards the garden. It features a cooking island which provides a central point for meal preparation and social interaction. The kitchen is fitted with a granite worktop and includes high-quality built-in appliances from Siemens and Miele, ensuring a luxurious and reliable cooking experience. The appliance package includes a hob, an oven, a refrigerator, a freezer, and a dishwasher. A highlight of this floor is the large sliding door that creates a seamless transition between the indoor kitchen and the outdoor garden. The entire ground floor is finished with an elegant marble floor that is not only stylish but also practical, featuring underfloor heating for comfort during the colder months.
Moving to the first floor, you will discover the main living room. Unlike traditional homes where the living area is on the ground floor, this property utilizes the first floor for its primary living space to maximize the views and light. This generous through-living room measures approximately 48 square meters and is flooded with natural light due to its positioning on the first floor. The room features large sliding doors on both the front and rear facades. These doors provide access to two balconies. The balcony at the front faces east, offering a pleasant spot in the morning, while the rear balcony faces west and provides a beautiful unobstructed view over the surrounding greenery. This arrangement allows residents to choose between sun and shade at any time of the day. The floor on this level is finished with high-quality PVC flooring and is also equipped with comfortable underfloor heating.
The second floor of the property is dedicated to the sleeping quarters. Here you will find two very spacious bedrooms. Originally, this floor was divided into three rooms, but the current configuration combines spaces to create two large and light bedrooms. Both rooms are generously proportioned and feature PVC flooring with underfloor heating. The main bedroom benefits from a practical built-in wardrobe, offering ample storage for clothing and personal items. Additional storage space is available on the landing, ensuring that the home remains organized and clutter-free.
Located on the second floor is the luxurious bathroom. This space is fully equipped with modern amenities designed for comfort and convenience. It features a large walk-in shower, a double washbasin, a wall-mounted toilet, and a designer radiator. The bathroom is further enhanced with recessed spotlights and electric floor heating, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The presence of a complete bathroom on the same floor as the bedrooms adds to the convenience of the layout.
The exterior of the property is just as impressive as the interior. The approximately 10 meter deep rear garden is situated on the west and southwest, making it an excellent spot for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. The garden borders directly onto a green strip, which means there are no direct rear neighbors. This placement guarantees optimal privacy, peace, and a free view. The garden is low maintenance and landscaped with ceramic tiles, atmospheric garden lighting, and various green plants. It includes a rear entrance and a detached storage shed that is equipped with electricity.
The location of Muur 30 in Uithoorn offers a high quality of life. The house is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac with only local traffic, making it a safe environment for children. The neighborhood of De Legmeer is known for its family-friendly atmosphere. There is a playground nearby where children can play safely. For daily groceries, the Legmeerplein shopping center is within walking distance. Larger shopping centers such as Zijdelwaard and Amstelplein are also easily accessible by car or bicycle.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, the surroundings offer plenty of opportunities for walking and cycling in the nearby Groene Hart and around the Zijdelmeer. The accessibility of the location is excellent. The stop for the Uithoorn line tram is within walking distance and provides a fast connection to Amstelveen and Amsterdam. The Uithoorn bus station is also nearby, offering connections to Schiphol, Haarlem, Hoofddorp, Utrecht, and Alphen aan den Rijn. By car, the N201 is easily reachable, providing quick access to the A2 and A4 motorways and the surrounding cities.
In terms of technical specifications, the property is well maintained. The living space is 127.5 square meters as measured by NEN standards. The house features flat roofs and was built in 1974 but has been modernized significantly. It is fully insulated and has nine solar panels contributing to the energy label A. The heating is provided by a central heating boiler, specifically an Atag 136EC HR combi boiler from 2019. The property is delivered partially furnished and includes connections for TV cable. With two balconies facing east and west, a private driveway, and underfloor heating throughout, this home combines modern comfort with a practical layout.
