Description
This property presents a well maintained two family home built in the early sixties and located on a quiet street that enjoys close proximity to the vibrant centre of Elst. The residence offers a total living area of ninety nine square metres spread over three levels, providing three generously sized sleeping rooms, a bright combined living and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, a large conservatory and a private garden at the rear of the house. The layout is designed to give a sense of openness while still delivering distinct zones for family life, work and leisure.
On arrival the visitor is greeted by a tidy front garden that leads to the main entrance. Inside the entrance hall a guest toilet and a storage closet for the staircase are situated. From the hall the kitchen is reached directly. The kitchen follows a country style with light coloured cabinetry and a gas stove. The work surface is ample and the layout allows the cook to remain in view of family members or guests seated at the adjacent table. The room is finished with floor tiling that is easy to maintain.
Beyond the kitchen the living and dining space unfolds. Large windows dominate the front and rear façades, allowing natural daylight to fill the room throughout the day. The floor is tiled, providing a practical and pleasant surface. The neutral colour palette gives the homeowner the flexibility to arrange furnishings according to personal taste. The view through the windows includes both the front garden and the rear garden, creating a visual link with the outdoor environment.
A standout feature of this home is the spacious conservatory that extends from the rear of the kitchen. The conservatory is fitted with sliding glass walls that can be opened to create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. The floor is tiled, matching the rest of the ground floor and making the area comfortable in cooler weather. The glass walls allow the space to be used from early spring through late autumn, providing a bright, airy setting for meals, reading or entertaining while still offering shelter from the elements.
The first floor holds two of the three bedrooms. Both rooms are of a comfortable size and include built in wardrobes, providing ample storage without sacrificing floor space. The rooms are positioned to benefit from natural light and can serve as sleeping quarters for children, guests or as home office spaces. The bathroom on this level is bright and finished in soft tones. It includes a large wash basin with a vanity, a shower, a toilet and generous storage cabinets. The fixtures are functional and the layout is straightforward, meeting the needs of a modern household.
The top floor contains the third bedroom. This room is finished to the same standard as the lower level bedrooms and offers flexibility for use as a bedroom, a quiet workspace, a hobby room or a guest suite. The position of the room at the highest level provides a degree of privacy from the main living areas below.
The rear garden is a well cared for green space that offers privacy through mature planting. A paved area provides space for outdoor dining or relaxation. Adjacent to the garden a separate stone shed with a small roofed canopy supplies additional storage for bicycles, garden tools or seasonal items. The garden can be accessed directly from the conservatory via a side door, enhancing the flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Practical aspects of the property include parking space directly in front of the house, making daily arrival and departure convenient. The neighbourhood is described as child friendly and the overall setting is calm, yet the central location means that shops, restaurants, schools and other amenities are all within walking or cycling distance. Elst itself lies midway between the larger cities of Arnhem and Nijmegen, offering easy access to a broader range of services and cultural opportunities.
The building was constructed in nineteen sixty two and retains a traditional pitched roof covered with tiles. Energy performance information indicates an energy label of E, with roof insulation and double glazed windows contributing to the overall thermal envelope. Heating and hot water are supplied by a central heating boiler that runs on gas. Electrical installations are present and the property is equipped with natural ventilation, roller shutters and television cable connections.
The property sits on a plot measuring two hundred twenty six square metres. In addition to the living space, the external built area includes a twenty five square metre covered area that comprises the conservatory and the front and rear terraces. An external storage space of seventeen square metres is provided by the stone shed. The total internal volume of the house is four hundred forty six cubic metres.
Overall the home offers a balanced combination of space, functional layout, outdoor amenities and a central location within a pleasant residential area. It is suitable for families seeking a comfortable living environment with easy access to local services, as well as for individuals who value the possibility of a bright conservatory and a private garden for leisure and relaxation.
