Spacious Family Home with Deep Garden in Popular Sint Pieter, Maastricht
Key Features
Upsides
- The property offers a highly versatile layout currently spread over three floors with separate facilities, providing the unique opportunity to reconfigure it into a large single family home with up to six bedrooms according to personal needs.
- Located in the popular Sint Pieter neighborhood, the home combines the tranquility and greenery of a nature rich area with the convenience of being within walking distance of Maastricht's historic city center.
- The outdoor space is exceptional for a city property, featuring a deep backyard of approximately 27 meters that allows for ample sunlight and privacy despite its northeastern orientation.
- With a generous living area of 168 square meters and a volume of 686 cubic meters, the house provides abundant space that is rare in this location, suitable for large families or those requiring a home office.
Downsides
- The property requires significant renovation and modernization to transform it from its current multi unit setup back into a cohesive single family home, which demands time and financial investment.
- Parking is not private and requires the use of paid public parking, permits, or searching for street spots, which can be inconvenient for a multi car household.
- The energy label is currently D, indicating that while there is roof insulation and double glazing, the house may not meet modern high efficiency standards without further upgrades.
- The garden faces northeast, which means the terrace directly adjacent to the house may receive less direct sunlight during parts of the day compared to a south or west facing garden.
Description
Situated on the Observantenweg in the city of Maastricht, this property offers a substantial living experience with a total floor area of 168 square meters. The location is central and lively, situated within the popular residential neighborhood of Sint Pieter. This area is well known for providing residents with the best of two distinct worlds. On one hand, it offers the peace and greenery associated with nature, while on the other, it provides close proximity to the bustling city center. This makes the location ideal for those who value tranquility without wanting to be isolated from urban amenities.
The house is currently spread over three floors, each featuring its own kitchen and bathroom facilities. This specific division offers a wide range of usage possibilities for the potential buyer. Whether the intention is to acquire a spacious family home or to create a completely new living concept, this property serves as an excellent foundation. The new owner will have complete freedom to modernize the entire building and rearrange the layout according to their own wishes and requirements. Beyond the main living areas, the property includes a practical cellar and a deep, green garden where one can enjoy the outdoors in privacy. The available space and the various layout options provide ample potential for anyone seeking a versatile and centrally located home.
Upon entering the ground floor via the entrance hall, residents have access to the meter cupboard, a pantry cellar, the staircase leading to the first floor, and the other rooms on this level. In the current layout, a bedroom has been realized at the front of the house. However, this space can easily be reintegrated into the living room by removing the intervening wall. This alteration would create a pleasant sitting room at the front of the property, allowing for a more traditional open living space.
Centrally located on the ground floor is the main living room. This space is connected to the dining room and a semi open kitchen by means of an intermediate partition featuring windows. The dining room is situated in an extension of the house and benefits from a skylight, which ensures that a large amount of natural light enters the space. From the dining room, occupants can enjoy a lovely view of the green backyard. The semi open kitchen itself is simple but neat and comes equipped with various built-in appliances. Also accessible from the hall is the first bathroom, which is fitted with a shower, a sink, and a toilet.
The exterior of the property features a backyard with a depth of approximately 27 meters and a width of about 6 meters. Thanks to these generous dimensions, the house offers a delightful, green garden with plenty of opportunities to enjoy outdoor living. Despite the northeastern orientation of the garden, the significant depth ensures a surprising number of hours of sunlight throughout the day. Directly adjacent to the rear facade is a terrace area, from which a small staircase provides access to the lower lying garden.
Moving to the first floor, the current layout mirrors the ground floor with a bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom. If the new owner decides to revert the house to its original layout, this floor offers space for no fewer than three bedrooms, a separate toilet room, and a bathroom. This configuration makes the property particularly suitable for families. In this family setup, the bedrooms would have approximate areas of 17 square meters, 14 square meters, and 7 square meters.
The second floor of the property is currently arranged in a similar fashion to the first floor, featuring a bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom. If desired, this floor can also be restored to a more traditional arrangement comprising three comfortable bedrooms and a bathroom. The dimensions of the bedrooms here would be identical to those on the first floor. At the front of this top floor, a dormer window has been added, which provides extra space and ensures pleasant light incidence. The large number of rooms in the house offers numerous possibilities for customization. One could consider creating a spacious walk in closet, a dedicated study or work room, a hobby room, or a comfortable guest room.
In terms of additional information, the property holds an absolute A location in Sint Pieter. It is within walking distance of a nature reserve and the historic city center of Maastricht. The sale is subject to a written requirement.
