Description
This spacious corner family home is situated in a central location in Spijkenisse and offers four bedrooms along with multiple outdoor spaces. The property was originally built in 1973 and features a traditional pitched roof covered with tiles. With a total living area of 124 square meters distributed across three floors, this residence provides ample space for families looking for a home they can customize to their own preferences.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by an entrance hall that includes a draft portal to help maintain indoor temperature. The hall also contains the meter cupboard, a separate toilet room, the staircase leading to the first floor, and a practical storage cupboard beneath the stairs. These features contribute to the overall functionality of the ground floor layout.
The ground floor comprises a closed kitchen and a spacious through-living room measuring approximately 27 square meters. The kitchen provides direct access to the sunny back garden, making it convenient for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the fresh air. The living room benefits from abundant natural light thanks to the large window sections and an additional side window, a characteristic advantage of the corner position of this property. Throughout the entire ground floor, a neat laminate floor has been installed, providing a clean and uniform appearance.
One of the notable features of this corner property is the presence of three distinct outdoor areas: a front garden, a side garden, and a back garden. This configuration allows residents to choose their preferred spot depending on the time of day and the position of the sun. The back garden, which faces south with a depth of 10.75 meters and a width of 9.49 meters, is particularly attractive for those who enjoy spending time outdoors. A freestanding stone storage shed is located in the back garden, offering additional storage space for garden equipment, bicycles, or other items.
The first floor of the property contains three spacious bedrooms. These rooms benefit from what is described as a straight facade extension, which means the exterior walls run vertically without the angled ceilings often found in properties of this era. This design choice maximizes the usable floor space in each bedroom, making them more practical for furnishing and daily use. The bathroom on this floor is equipped with a bathtub, a second toilet, and a washbasin, providing all the essential facilities for a family household.
The second floor offers surprisingly generous proportions. The landing area features a dormer window, which brings in additional natural light and creates a more spacious feel. On this floor, you will find the installation location for the gas-fired combi boiler, which is included in the purchase as it is owned by the current owner. A washing machine connection has also been conveniently placed on this floor. The second floor additionally houses a fourth bedroom that has been created in this space. This bedroom is notably spacious and includes an extra side window, further enhancing the natural light in the room.
The property features hardwood window frames throughout, which are durable and can contribute to the character of the home. However, it should be noted that the property currently has only partial double glazing, which is reflected in the energy label D rating. This is an aspect that future owners may wish to address to improve the energy efficiency of the home.
An important administrative detail to consider is that the plot currently needs to be officially split, and the costs associated with this process are to be borne by the buyer. The cadastral designation indicates a partial plot (deelperceel) of 5,349 square meters, though this figure likely represents the original larger parcel before division rather than the actual garden size. The actual back garden measures 102 square meters.
The property is being offered at a asking price of 375,000 euros, which translates to approximately 3,024 euros per square meter of living space. The home is available for immediate occupancy, which could be advantageous for buyers who need to move quickly.
This corner house presents an opportunity for families and practically minded buyers who are seeking a property with generous space, a favorable location near shops, schools, public transportation, and main roads, and the potential to modernize the home according to their own taste and requirements. The combination of four full bedrooms, multiple garden areas, and a corner position that provides extra light and outdoor space makes this a property worth considering for those prepared to invest in updates and improvements.
