The listing also mentions an electric boiler and solar water heater among the hot water systems.
Parking is available on public streets in the area. The property is situated on its own land (eigen grond), which is an important consideration in Dutch real estate transactions. Given the construction year of 1937, standard age and materials clauses apply to the sale.
