Description
This detached villa is located in the municipality of Sittard-Geleen and is offered by Vivre Adviesgroep. The residence was built approximately in 1990 and presents itself as a surprisingly spacious home that reveals its full extent upon entering. With a living area of 166 square meters and a plot of 567 square meters, this property offers considerable space for comfortable living both now and in the future.
The location of this property is situated in a quiet residential area, providing a pleasant living environment on a daily basis. Despite the peaceful setting, the property benefits from excellent accessibility. The nearby A2 motorway connects residents easily to surrounding cities and various amenities. Schools, shops, and other daily facilities are located within close proximity, making this location practical for families and individuals alike. The rear of the property offers a free and unobstructed view, contributing to a sense of space and freedom.
Upon entering the home, visitors are welcomed by a spacious hallway featuring an open void that extends to the first floor. This open design immediately creates a light and airy atmosphere throughout the entrance area. A striking mahogany wooden staircase serves as a focal point in the entrance, giving the hallway a distinctive and characterful appearance. The void continues to provide a sense of connection between the two living levels throughout the home.
From the hallway, the living room is accessible to the right. This is a generous living space where comfort and livability come together naturally. The room accommodates both a sitting area and a dining area, creating a functional and comfortable living environment suitable for daily family life and entertaining guests. A wood-burning stove and travertine flooring contribute to warmth and atmosphere in this main living space. The combination of these elements creates an inviting setting for year-round enjoyment.
The kitchen is situated adjacent to the living room and is currently functionally arranged. While the kitchen serves its purpose well, it also presents an excellent foundation for those who wish to create a modern open-plan kitchen where cooking, dining, and socializing take center stage. The current layout provides flexibility for future modifications according to personal preferences and contemporary standards.
What makes this property particularly noteworthy is the practical layout on the ground floor. In addition to the entrance hall, living room, and kitchen, this level also contains a bedroom, a bathroom, and a laundry room. This configuration makes the home highly suitable for single-level living, which is an increasingly important consideration for many home seekers. This ground floor arrangement provides comfort and convenience not only for the present but also anticipates future needs, making the property life-course resistant. A separate toilet is also available on this level.
The first floor continues the feeling of space established on the ground floor. Thanks to the void and a dormer window, this level experiences an open and light atmosphere. The first floor contains two very spacious bedrooms with pleasant layouts and abundant daylight. Both rooms are equipped with their own washbasin, providing extra comfort in daily use. Additionally, a practical storage room housing the central heating installation and offering extra storage space is located on this level.
The exterior spaces of this property are equally noteworthy. The garden offers a pleasant combination of space, privacy, and usability. At various times of the day, residents can find a suitable spot to enjoy outdoor living. A covered terrace with atmospheric lighting provides sheltered and comfortable seating. This is an enjoyable space for long summer evenings but also allows for outdoor enjoyment during other seasons.
The garden also features a stone outbuilding with additional storage space on the side. This structure is ideal for storing garden equipment, bicycles, or tools. Thanks to the practical layout of the plot, sufficient space remains for relaxation, greenery, or other personal uses according to individual preferences.
The detached garage with an electric door forms a valuable addition to the property. The garage is equipped with electricity, water, and heating, making this space suitable for various purposes. It can be used for parking a vehicle, but it also offers potential as an extra room, workspace, or additional storage. The driveway provides parking space on the property itself.
The property was built around 1990 and provides a solid foundation for years of residential pleasure. Over the years, the property has been maintained in various aspects, resulting in a decent and comfortable whole. The property features plastic window frames with double glazing and is largely equipped with shutters, contributing to comfort, privacy, and ease of use. Energy label C underscores the basic quality that the property offers in terms of insulation.
The central heating system is a Netfit Turbo 32 gas-fired combination boiler from 1990, which is owned rather than rented. While this system has served the property over the years, potential buyers may wish to consider its age when evaluating the property and possibly plan for future replacement.
What makes this property particularly attractive is the combination of space and potential. The foundation is solid, while at the same time there are ample possibilities to further adapt the finishing and layout to contemporary living wishes. Consider the creation of a contemporary open-plan kitchen, the modernization of sanitary facilities, or the further optimization of living spaces. Thanks to the generous dimensions and multifunctional layout, various directions are possible with this property.
The cadastral information indicates the property is registered as SITTARD-GELEEN T 1046 with a surface area of 567 square meters under full ownership. The property is classified as a villa or detached house with a gable roof covered with tiles. The total volume of the building is 690 cubic meters.
In summary, this is a surprisingly spacious detached villa with a life-course resistant layout, considerable comfort, and ample possibilities to create a wonderful home. The combination of a practical ground floor arrangement, generous living spaces, a versatile garage, and a well-appointed garden makes this property suitable for various target groups. Whether seeking a family home, a property combining work and living, or simply desiring substantial living space, this property offers versatile possibilities.
