Characteristic semi-detached home with unique riverside location and five bedrooms
Key Features
Description
The property is located on Rivierdijk in Hardinxveld-Giessendam, situated between the river floodplains and the polder landscape. This semi-detached home, built in 1913, occupies a nearly 300 square meter plot and offers parking directly in front of the house. The original workers' dwelling was extended by approximately 50 square meters in 1992, bringing the total living area to 120 square meters. The side garden is deep, fenced, and provides ample space and privacy.
The ground floor features a practical layout with the bathroom conveniently located on this level. The entrance leads into a spacious and bright hall containing the meter cupboard, a fixed closet, and wardrobe space. Through an archway, you reach the generous living room of approximately 30 square meters, which is the section added in 1992. This room is equipped with air conditioning and has French doors opening directly to the deep, partially landscaped main garden. An open staircase leads to the first floor from this room.
The kitchen-living area is located on the street side and offers more than enough space for a large and atmospheric dining area. The substantial L-shaped kitchen contains numerous cabinets and drawers, and is fitted with a cooktop, dishwasher, refrigerator, oven, and microwave. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room and technical space housing the central heating boiler, with room for storage provisions.
The modern bathroom on the ground floor is equipped with a toilet, vanity unit, a spacious walk-in shower, washing machine connections, and mechanical ventilation.
The first floor is accessed from the spacious landing, which provides access to five bedrooms, a neat toilet room with a standing toilet, small sink, and skylight, and the storage attic of the 1992 extension. The largest bedroom spans the full width of the house and features two skylights. The second bedroom also has a skylight and provides access to a second storage attic. The remaining three bedrooms, all with skylights, are located in the part of the house that was added in 1992.
The second floor consists of two separate storage attics, both with a ridge height of approximately 0.80 meters. While these spaces offer additional storage, their limited height means they are not suitable for conversion to living space without significant structural modifications.
The front garden is approximately 5 meters deep and predominantly paved, providing space for multiple vehicles. From here, there is access to the delightful, private, and fully fenced main garden, which has recently been fitted with new fencing. Through the French doors in the living room, you step directly onto the paved section of this approximately 16-meter deep main garden. The garden is partially landscaped with a lawn and various plant borders, offering possibilities for further development according to personal taste.
Behind the main property lies a second plot where a wooden, detached storage shed of approximately 11 square meters with a loft is situated. This provides additional storage space for garden equipment, bicycles, or other belongings.
The property benefits from 14 solar panels, each with a capacity of 360 watt-peak, contributing to lower energy costs. The energy label is D, and the property features largely double glazing, HR glass, and wall insulation. Heating and hot water are provided by a CombiPact 2433 gas-fired combination boiler, which is owned by the property.
The total content of the house is 470 cubic meters, distributed over two residential floors and a storage attic. The roof is a gable roof covered with tiles. Additional features include exterior sun blinds, mechanical ventilation, and natural ventilation options.
The property consists of two cadastral numbers: HARDINXVELD-GIESSENDAM C 4597 with 15 square meters and HARDINXVELD-GIESSENDAM C 4595 with 281 square meters, both in full ownership. This configuration means the total plot size of 296 square meters is spread across two separate parcels.
The side garden measures 113 square meters, with dimensions of 15 meters deep and 7.50 meters wide, and is located on the north side, accessible via a rear path.
The asking price was 400,000 euros buyer's costs, which translates to approximately 3,333 euros per square meter of living space. The property received significant attention with over 8,000 views before being marked as sold under reservation.
This property presents an opportunity to live in a characterful home in a unique location between the river and the polder landscape. The combination of historical elements from 1913 with the practical extension from 1992 creates a living space that can be further personalized according to individual preferences and requirements. The presence of five bedrooms makes this property particularly suitable for larger families or those who need additional rooms for a home office or guest accommodation. The ground floor bathroom adds convenience, while the private garden and parking facilities enhance the overall livability of this distinctive residence.
