Key Features
Description
This well-maintained terraced house is situated on Oude El 10 in the Boerenstreek neighborhood of Soest, offering comfortable and energy-efficient living for families or couples seeking space and modern conveniences.
The property was constructed in 2003 and features a living space of approximately 110 square meters on a compact but practical plot of 125 square meters. With an energy label A rating, this home has been built with sustainability and energy efficiency in mind, resulting in lower monthly utility costs for the future occupants.
On the ground floor, you enter through a hallway that provides access to a toilet with a small sink. The spacious and bright living room is the heart of this home, featuring a laminate floor and sliding doors that open to the backyard and veranda. The semi-open kitchen is positioned at the front of the house and comes equipped with a gas cooktop, range hood, oven, and dishwasher, making meal preparation convenient and enjoyable.
The rear garden measures approximately 52 square meters and is oriented toward the northeast. This outdoor space includes a back entrance for easy access, a charming veranda that was added in 2017 providing shelter for outdoor relaxation regardless of weather conditions, and a detached wooden storage shed with electricity for storing bicycles, gardening equipment, or other belongings. The garden depth of 9.60 meters and width of 5.40 meters offer a comfortable outdoor area for families with children or those who enjoy gardening.
The first floor consists of a landing area and three bedrooms. One of these bedrooms is currently being used as a walk-in closet, demonstrating the flexibility of the space to accommodate various lifestyle needs. The bathroom on this floor is equipped with a bathtub, sink with vanity unit, a second toilet, and a towel radiator, providing all essential facilities for a family household.
The second floor features a landing with dedicated space for a washing machine and dryer, adding practicality to the home. Additionally, there is a generous fourth bedroom on this floor that includes a dormer window and extra storage space in the roof, maximizing the usable area of this level.
Heating and hot water are provided by a Nefit HRC 24 combination boiler that runs on natural gas, which was installed in 2021 and is owned by the current owners. This relatively modern central heating system should provide reliable and efficient heating for years to come.
The property also benefits from building-related outdoor space of 16 square meters, likely referring to the veranda area, and external storage space of 8 square meters. The total cubic content of the building is 394 cubic meters.
Regarding parking, the immediate vicinity offers public parking options. The house is connected to fiber optic cable, mechanical ventilation, and television cable, ensuring modern connectivity and air quality management.
Location-wise, this home offers an excellent balance between tranquility and accessibility. The Boerenstreek neighborhood is known for being child-friendly, with a central park, playgrounds, and walking paths all within walking distance. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Landgoed Pijnenburg and the Soester Duinen, beautiful natural areas perfect for hiking and outdoor activities.
Despite the green and peaceful surroundings, all essential amenities are conveniently nearby. The Overhees shopping center is close by for daily groceries and shopping needs. Schools in the area serve families with children, and the NS train station provides public transport connections to major cities. For commuters or those who travel frequently, the arterial roads A1, A27, and A28 are easily accessible, connecting Soest to Amsterdam, Utrecht, and other destinations in the Netherlands.
In summary, this property presents an attractive option for buyers seeking a move-in ready family home that combines modern construction, energy efficiency, practical layout, and a desirable location in a green and family-oriented neighborhood. The combination of four bedrooms, a pleasant garden with veranda, recent upgrades to the heating system, and the excellent energy rating makes this a compelling choice in the Soest housing market.
