Description
This property located on Cornelis Houtmanstraat in Delfzijl presents a fully renovated residential opportunity that was completed in 2025. The home has been modernized throughout and is offered in a move-in ready condition, meaning new owners can settle in immediately without undertaking any renovation work. The entire building operates without natural gas, making it an energy-conscious choice for buyers looking to reduce their carbon footprint and eliminate gas utility costs.
The ground floor layout begins with an entrance hall that provides access to the kitchen, the first floor, and a cellar measuring approximately 5.7 square meters. The cellar offers additional storage space below ground level. The kitchen spans about 7.5 square meters and is equipped with a four-burner cooktop, an oven, a refrigerator, and electric heating. The kitchen connects directly to the living room, creating a practical flow for daily living.
The living room measures approximately 26.3 square meters and benefits from good natural light exposure. The floor is finished with laminate flooring, and the room is equipped with an air conditioning unit installed in 2023 for temperature control during warmer months. Electric heating provides warmth during colder periods. The combination of air conditioning and electric heating allows residents to maintain comfortable temperatures year-round regardless of seasonal changes.
At the rear of the ground floor, there is an extension that houses a toilet room, features a tiled floor, includes electric heating, and contains laundry connections for a washing machine and dryer. This rear section provides direct access to the low-maintenance outdoor space where two storage buildings are located. The first storage building is constructed of stone and measures approximately 10.6 square meters. This structure has electrical connections and an additional water supply point, which could be useful for various purposes such as a workshop or hobby space. The second storage building is made of wood and measures approximately 5.7 square meters. This wooden shed also has electricity and provides access to a practical storage attic above it.
The first floor contains two bedrooms, a recently renovated bathroom, and a storage closet. The entire floor is finished with laminate flooring matching the ground floor. The larger bedroom measures approximately 15.2 square meters and is equipped with both air conditioning and electric heating. The second bedroom measures approximately 6.4 square meters and features air conditioning. All windows on this floor have fly screens installed, allowing for ventilation without insect intrusion during summer months.
The bathroom has been recently renewed and includes a shower with a tiled built-in seat, a toilet, a mirror, electric heating, and a connection for active ventilation. The inclusion of a toilet in the bathroom provides convenience, complementing the separate toilet on the ground floor.
The attic space is accessible via a pull-down ladder. This area houses the electric boiler with a capacity of 150 liters that was installed in 2025 and is owned by the property. The inverter for the solar panels is also located in the attic. Additionally, the attic features two small skylights that provide some natural light and offers storage space.
The property has undergone significant sustainability improvements since the current energy label C was issued in 2018. These improvements include the installation of HR++ double glazing, roof insulation, wall insulation, twelve solar panels placed in 2022, and the electric boiler. The exterior features plastic window frames and plastic gutters that require minimal maintenance compared to traditional materials. The electrical system throughout the property has been completely renewed, including a new distribution board.
The total living area measures 82 square meters, with an additional 15 square meters of other indoor space and 1 square meter of building-bound outdoor space. External storage totals 6 square meters. The plot measures 154 square meters, and the building has a volume of 399 cubic meters. The property is classified as a semi-detached house constructed in 1933 with a gabled roof covered with tiles.
The location in Delfzijl offers proximity to various amenities including shops, schools, public transportation, and sports facilities. The town center and major roads are easily accessible from this residential neighborhood. Parking is available on public streets in the area.
It should be noted that the property has a fixed IMG compensation of 5,000 euros that has already been utilized. The asking price is 235,000 euros payable by the buyer, which equates to approximately 2,866 euros per square meter of living space. The property is available for viewing and the transfer terms are negotiable.
