Life-Cycle Resistant Bungalow with Creek Views in Central Roggel
Key Features
Upsides
- Attractive location near the Roggelse beek with direct access to nature areas like Mössehook and Leudal, while still being within walking distance of the village centre with all its amenities.
- Life-cycle resistant single-level bungalow design making it suitable for extended comfortable living without stairs.
- Spacious plot of 414 square metres with a large front and back garden, detached garage, and driveway with space for approximately three cars.
- Recently replaced roof covering from 2019 providing updated protection for the property.
Downsides
- Ceilings show leakage stains in several places, which the roofer attributes to condensation due to missing vapor barrier, indicating potential moisture issues that may need addressing.
- Energy label F indicates poor energy efficiency, partly due to mixed window glazing with some single-glazed wooden frames dating from the original 1973 construction.
- Kitchen and sanitary facilities date from 1996, making them over 25 years old and potentially in need of replacement or modernization.
- Only two bedrooms limit the property's appeal for families needing more sleeping accommodation.
Description
Located in a highly attractive residential area in the centre of Roggel, this semi-detached life-cycle resistant bungalow offers comfortable single-level living. The property was originally built in 1973 and underwent significant renovations in 1996 to achieve its current layout and condition. A sunroom was added in 1997, and the roof was renewed with bituminous covering in 2019.
The property is situated on a quiet residential street with the Roggelse beek flowing along the rear side of the home. To the right side, there is an extension of the creek featuring a fishing platform. All daily amenities including shops and restaurants in the village centre of Roggel are within walking distance. The location combines the convenience of village living with proximity to nature, as the beautiful nature reserve Mössehook and the forest-rich area of Leudal can be reached via a path along the creek.
Upon entering through the side entrance, you arrive in the central hall which features a wooden front door and a light tiled floor. The hall provides access to the meter cupboard, a fully tiled en-suite toilet and bathroom, the utility room, and both bedrooms. At the end of the hall lies the living room, which serves as both a dining and sitting area. The living room has a cork floor and wallpapered walls. At the rear of the living room, there is access to the plastic sunroom which has polycarbonate roof panels and sliding doors to the garden. The sunroom measures approximately 12 square metres and features a light diagonally laid tiled floor.
The bungalow contains two bedrooms measuring approximately 12 and 10 square metres respectively. Both rooms have wallpapered walls and vinyl flooring. The sanitary facilities consist of a fully tiled en-suite bathroom accessible directly from the master bedroom. This bathroom is equipped with underfloor heating, a vanity unit, and a spacious shower with a foldable shower seat. There is also a separate toilet accessible from the hall.
The closed kitchen is located at the front of the property and can be reached via the living room. It has a vinyl floor and features an L-shaped kitchen unit with upper and lower cabinets and drawers. The kitchen appliances include a four-burner ceramic hob with extractor hood, a refrigerator, and a combination microwave. The kitchen measures approximately 10 square metres. To the right of the front door, there is a utility room with connections for a washing machine and dryer, as well as the position of the central heating boiler. The utility room also provides access to the crawl space and a rear passage to the garden.
The property sits on a spacious plot with large front and back gardens, both featuring various shrubs and plants. The back garden offers a pleasant free view towards the Apollolaan. The detached garage has a flat roof with bituminous covering, a pedestrian door to the garden, and double wooden garage doors opening to the driveway. The internal dimensions of the garage are approximately 5 by almost 3 metres. The large driveway provides space for approximately three cars.
Notable features of this property include its life-cycle resistant design and highly attractive location. The kitchen dates from 1996 with some appliances replaced in 2011. The sanitary facilities were installed in 1996. The property has a gable roof with bituminous covering that was replaced in 2019. Ceiling insulation was added in 1996. The windows are predominantly wooden frames with single and double glazing, with the front facade having double glazing. The master bedroom and sunroom at the rear feature plastic frames with double glazing. The sunroom was added in 1997. The central heating boiler is an HR combi boiler from 2009 which is owned. It should be noted that the ceilings in the property show signs of leakage in several places. Following inspection by a roofer, it is believed this is caused by condensation formation, likely due to the absence of a vapor barrier.
Roggel is a pleasant and easily accessible village in the municipality of Leudal. The village is known for a large five-star recreation park called Parc de Leistert, the beautiful natural surroundings including nature park Het Leudal, and numerous associations and clubs. Daily groceries can be purchased in the village, and Roggel also has a broad social facility building housing a primary school, a medical centre, an adjoining association building, and a sports hall.
