On this floor is the fourth bedroom, which features a plastic dormer window. This dormer creates additional headroom and a pleasant living space. The presence of the dormer window makes this room suitable as a full bedroom or possibly a study or hobby room.

The garden has a partially covered rear access path with a freestanding stone storage shed. Both the front and rear of the property have sunshades installed for shade on sunny days.

The property features plastic window frames throughout the entire house, including the dormer window. Plastic frames require minimal maintenance and contribute to the energy efficiency of the home.

The property is being sold in its current condition, which is common in the Dutch real estate market and gives buyers the freedom to renovate and decorate according to their own preferences and requirements. A non-occupancy clause will be included in the purchase agreement. This clause means that the current owner will not continue to live in the property after transfer, which can be advantageous for buyers who want to move in directly or start renovation work immediately. The property is available immediately upon agreement.
The asking price is 435,000 euros costs to buyer. This means that in addition to the purchase price, the buyer pays the costs associated with the transfer such as the transfer tax, notary fees for the deed of transfer and the mortgage deed, and possibly costs for technical inspections or a structural survey.
Papenhoeflaan 97 is located in the vicinity of the Veenweidepark, which offers additional recreational opportunities. The combination of a quiet residential area with the proximity of various amenities makes this a popular location for families with children. The presence of multiple primary schools within walking distance is an additional advantage for young families.
Oudewater itself is a historic town with a rich history. The center has a characteristic atmosphere with historic buildings and a varied range of shops and restaurants. The town is conveniently located with good connections to surrounding larger cities, making it suitable for people who work elsewhere but want to live in a quieter environment.
The property offers a solid basis for a family looking for a home with space and potential. The four bedrooms provide ample sleeping space, and the presence of a second toilet adds to the daily convenience. The garden with shed offers outdoor living space and storage options. The plastic window frames and relatively young central heating boiler from 2018 are valuable features that reduce the need for immediate replacement.
For buyers looking for a property to renovate to their own taste, this house offers good starting points. The current finishes with spachtelputz walls and carpet floors can serve as a basis, but can be completely adapted to modern preferences. The kitchen can be renovated or expanded according to personal wishes, and the bathroom can be updated to current standards if desired.
