Sustainable Biobased Park Residence with Green Roof and Ground Source Heat Pump
Key Features
Description
This semi-detached park residence is part of phase II of the Mijn Schuurwoning project located in the Unia district of Leeuwarden. The development stands out as the only biobased construction project in Leeuwarden, offering a sustainable approach to modern living. The property is identified as build number 12 within the project.
The project encompasses four semi-detached Laanwoningen and two semi-detached Parkwoningen in this second phase. The Parkwoningen are distinguished by their position adjacent to the green park area within Unia. Two variations exist within the Parkwoning type. One features an extended side entrance with front door, creating an appealing eat-in kitchen and separate sitting area. The other variant has an entrance on the south facade, resulting in a through-living floor plan. Both versions come standard with double French doors at both the front and rear facades, allowing direct access to the south-facing backyard or the decking area facing the park.
The interior layout spans three full floors. The ground floor provides the main living areas with the flexible arrangement depending on the chosen variant. The first floor contains three bedrooms and a fitted bathroom with sufficient space for an optional bathtub. The spacious attic offers adequate room to create a fourth bedroom, providing flexibility for growing families or those needing a home office space.
The construction prioritizes comfort through several integrated systems. The damp-open natural insulation combined with the green sedum roof contributes to a pleasant indoor climate that remains cool during summer months and warm during winter. A summer night ventilation system allows cool air to enter the residence safely during warm nights. The ground source heat pump enables both heating and cooling at low operational costs, notably without the external condenser unit typically seen with new construction properties.
The exterior spaces have been thoughtfully designed and are included in the base price. The garden features a pergola, climbing plants, a wooden decking area, plant beds, fencing, hedges, and semi-paved surfaces. The buyer only needs to sow grass seed to complete the landscaping. The garden design incorporates green elements that provide a cooler outdoor environment during summer while supporting biodiversity through the attraction of insects, birds, and other wildlife.
Energy efficiency is a central feature of this residence, reflected in the A+++ energy label. The ground source heat pump operates with high efficiency and requires minimal maintenance. Five solar panels are included as standard, allowing residents to generate their own electricity. The combination of the green roof and natural insulation results in a low energy demand while maintaining a healthy indoor environment. Rainwater collection is integrated through an underground storage tank that provides water for garden use, addressing the increasing scarcity and cost of water resources.
The base price of 504,500 euros includes the complete finishing. The property comes with quality tile work and sanitary fixtures already installed. The standard inclusion of the fully landscaped garden, French doors, and energy systems means the buyer receives a move-in ready home without additional costs for these elements.
The Unia district offers a spacious residential environment with abundant greenery, park areas, and water features. Phase I of the Mijn Schuurwoning project has sold out completely, with seven Laanwoningen and six Parkwoningen currently under construction. The expected completion for this phase II property is in 2026.
The property has a living area of 134 square meters situated on a plot of 205 square meters. The total volume measures 402 cubic meters. Parking is available on the private grounds of the property. The roof is a gable roof with a sedum green covering. The property is classified as a single-family semi-detached dwelling of new construction.
This Parkwoning represents an opportunity to reside in a sustainably built home that combines environmental considerations with practical living comfort. The biobased construction method, comprehensive energy systems, and complete finishing make this a property suited for buyers seeking a modern, efficient home in a green residential setting within Leeuwarden.
