From the utility room, access is provided to the backyard.
The first floor is reached via a fixed staircase and consists of a landing with three bedrooms and one bathroom.

The bathroom is fully tiled and features a shower, a second toilet, a washbasin vanity unit, and a designer radiator.
The second floor is accessible via a fixed staircase from the first-floor landing. This level contains an attic room with a skylight window. Currently used as an office space, this room offers flexibility to serve as a fourth bedroom, hobby room, or home workspace.

The backyard measures approximately 74 square meters with a depth of 14.50 meters and a width of 5.12 meters. The garden is oriented to the southeast, ensuring sunlight throughout much of the day.

The Huizum district is characterized by quiet streets and a collection of 1930s residential properties. The neighborhood offers proximity to local shops within walking distance, while the De Schrans shopping area is accessible for more extensive retail needs. Julianapark, a green recreational area, is located nearby and provides opportunities for walking, sports activities, and children's play. The area contains multiple primary schools, daycare centers, and sports clubs, making it suitable for families. Transportation connections include nearby bus stops with services to the city center and surrounding areas, as well as convenient access to the N31 and A32 roads.
The property has an energy label D rating. Window insulation consists of double glazing and HR++ glazing, representing upgrades from the original single glazing typical of 1930s construction. Heating and hot water are supplied by the gas-fired Remeha Avanta combination boiler from 2012, which is included in the sale as owned equipment.
Cadastral records indicate two parcels under full ownership: HUIZUM A 3411 measuring 108 square meters and HUIZUM A 3412 measuring 11 square meters, totaling 119 square meters which corresponds to the stated plot area.
Parking in the area is available on public roads. The house is situated on a quiet road within a residential neighborhood. The property includes exterior sun blinds and a TV cable connection as additional features.
The transfer of the property will be arranged by mutual agreement. As the property exceeds thirty years of age, the standard asbestos and age clause applies to the sale. This contractual provision is customary in Dutch real estate transactions involving older properties.
The property configuration with four bedrooms across three levels provides flexibility for various household compositions. The combination of a character home from the 1930s period with updated elements such as the kitchen appliances, bathroom fixtures, and window insulation presents a residence that balances historical appeal with practical modern amenities. The location in an established neighborhood with good access to both urban facilities and green spaces contributes to the overall desirability of this offering in the Leeuwarden housing market.
