Detached Waterfront Home with Large Garage and Southeast-Facing Garden
Key Features
Description
This detached property is situated on the edge of Lutjebroek and offers a residential experience connected to the surrounding waterways. Built in 1910, the house has been maintained by its current owners for approximately forty years and combines original architectural elements with modern living comforts.
The residence has a total living area of around 152 square meters distributed across two main floors. The plot covers 326 square meters, providing ample outdoor space alongside the main dwelling. Additionally, there is an external storage building measuring approximately 84 square meters, which significantly increases the practical usability of the property.
Upon entering through the rear entrance, you reach a hall with a fixed storage closet. From here, access is provided to a practical utility room equipped with connections for a washing machine and dryer. The kitchen is adjacent and features a range of built-in appliances including an induction cooktop, extractor hood, dishwasher, refrigerator, freezer, and combination microwave. The kitchen layout is designed in a country style that complements the character of the home.
The living room is a welcoming space that immediately conveys warmth upon entry. Notable features include stained glass windows that add character and filter natural light in an attractive manner. The floor is finished with quality wooden flooring that enhances the rural atmosphere. At the rear of the living room, there is a light bay window where morning sun can be enjoyed. The room also includes a conservatory with sliding doors that provide direct access to the garden, blurring the boundary between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
The ground floor also houses the meter cupboard, a staircase leading to the first floor, a closet containing the central heating boiler installation, and a separate toilet room with a wall-mounted toilet.
The first floor contains four bedrooms, offering substantial accommodation for a family. One of the bedrooms has been fitted with a washbasin for added convenience. There is also a storage closet on the landing. The bathroom on this level is fully equipped and includes a bathtub, a separate shower, a washbasin, and a toilet, making it a complete and functional space.
A loft ladder provides access to a storage attic on the second floor level, offering additional space for storing items that are not needed on a daily basis.
One of the most notable features of this property is the large detached outbuilding that was constructed in 1988. This structure has its own upper floor, effectively doubling its usable capacity. The garage is accessed via an electric overhead door and has dimensions that accommodate two vehicles. Beyond parking, this space presents numerous possibilities such as storage for motorcycles, bicycles, or garden equipment, or it could serve as a workshop or hobby space. The presence of electricity in the garage further expands its potential uses.
The garden at the rear of the property is a particular highlight. Measuring 132 square meters with dimensions of approximately 12 meters in depth and 11 meters in width, the garden is oriented to the southeast, ensuring good sunlight exposure throughout much of the day. The garden directly borders navigable water, offering unobstructed views over the surrounding countryside and fields. From the property, residents can directly access various recreational water routes leading to natural areas including Het Streekbos.
A covered seating area was installed in 2023 and features glass sliding walls, creating a space that can be used comfortably for much of the year regardless of weather conditions. The sheet piling along the water edge was replaced approximately five years ago, indicating responsible maintenance of the waterfront aspect.
The property benefits from several energy efficiency features. The roof is equipped with twelve solar panels that contribute to reduced energy costs. The window frames have been replaced with plastic frames featuring high-efficiency double glazing. Insulation has been added to the roof, walls, and the glazing system. The energy label is rated C, which is reasonable for a property of this age with these upgrades.
Climate control is provided by three air conditioning units that offer both cooling and supplementary heating capabilities, adding to year-round comfort. Mechanical ventilation is also installed, contributing to a healthy indoor climate.
The heating system consists of a Remeha gas-fired combination boiler from 2005, which is owned by the current residents and will transfer to the new owner.
The property is located in a quiet residential area yet maintains good connectivity to essential services and transportation networks. Shopping center Streekhof, schools, and sports facilities are all within reachable distance. Public transportation connections are available, and the location provides good access to major roads leading toward Lelystad, the A7 motorway, the Randstad region, and northern parts of the Netherlands.
The cadastral designation is registered as STEDE BROEC B 779, with full freehold ownership.
Parking is available on the property's own grounds, and there is also public parking in the vicinity for visitors.
This property presents itself as a well-maintained family home in a peaceful setting with the added benefits of water access, a substantial outbuilding, and a garden that takes full advantage of its southeastern orientation. The combination of original character elements such as the stained glass windows and wooden floors with modern installations like the air conditioning and solar panels creates a balanced living environment that respects the home's history while meeting contemporary expectations for comfort and efficiency.
