Characteristic and very spacious detached home with significant potential

Located on the Roermondseweg in the beloved monastery village of Steyl, this characteristic and very spacious detached home offers substantial living space and diverse possibilities for combining living and working. The property presents itself as a striking building with a life-cycle-proof design, ensuring that it is accessible and comfortable for all stages of life. The residence provides ample living space and various options to create a home office or workspace within the building. The layout is designed to offer flexibility and comfort for families or individuals looking for a roomy property in a scenic location.

Upon entering the property through the front door or the back entrance, one is welcomed into a practical hallway that provides access to the meter cupboard, the partially tiled toilet featuring a fixed closet and a small sink, and the staircase to the upper floor. The ground floor layout is exceptionally convenient, featuring a very generous living room, a kitchen, a toilet, a laundry room, a bathroom, two bedrooms, and a spacious additional room that serves excellently as an office or workspace. The presence of two bedrooms and a full bathroom on the ground floor level makes this property entirely life-cycle proof, allowing residents to live and sleep on the ground floor without needing to use the stairs daily. This feature adds a significant layer of convenience and future-proofing to the home.

The living room is particularly notable for its size and light, featuring a slate floor and an open fireplace that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. Adjacent to the living room is a large room that is currently accessible via the storage area. This space is ideal for use as a home office, a workspace, or a playroom. There is also the possibility to restore the original open connection with the living room, which would create a seamless flow between the living areas. Furthermore, the current layout offers the exciting potential to realize a beautiful living kitchen in this adjacent room with a view of the garden, as illustrated by the impression photos included in the listing. The ground floor alone measures more than 200 square meters. It is important to note that because the room where the living kitchen could be realized is currently not accessible directly via the main living space but via the storage, this area of over 40 square meters is currently not counted as official living surface area but as other indoor space. This classification presents a valuable opportunity for the new owners to expand the formal living area significantly by restoring the connection.

The kitchen is accessible via both the entrance hall and the living room and is equipped with a tiled floor. It is a practical space that offers the new owners the freedom to furnish it entirely according to their own taste and requirements. At present, the kitchen is equipped with a hob with an extractor hood and a worktop with a sink. From the kitchen, there is also access to the characteristic vaulted cellar, which provides much extra storage space for food, wine, or other household items. The bathroom on the ground floor is partially tiled and comes with a bathtub, a shower, two sinks, and a toilet, making it a fully equipped sanitary space. The two bedrooms located on this floor are finished with wall-to-wall carpeting for comfort. In the separate laundry room, there are connections for white goods and a practical washbasin. Via this laundry room, one also has direct access to the backyard, making chores like hanging laundry convenient.

The first floor of the property is a space full of potential and character. Upon reaching this level, one is immediately struck by the atmospheric appearance, which is largely due to the beautiful old beams that are visible throughout the floor. This upper level is divided into three compartments, which offers a wide range of possibilities for the layout. The new owners could choose to create extra bedrooms, a second bathroom, a hobby room, or a large workspace. Currently, the entire upper floor counts as other indoor space in the official measurements, but this floor is also more than 130 square meters in size. This means that with the desired adjustments, the living surface area of the property could be expanded to more than 330 square meters without the need for building extensions or an addition. This makes the property exceptionally scalable to the needs of a large family or someone requiring substantial indoor space.

The outdoor area of the property is designed for low-maintenance enjoyment. The house features a recently fenced garden laid out with grass, providing a safe and private area for relaxation or play. The garden includes a free back entrance, allowing for easy access without going through the house. Additionally, there is a private driveway and a garage, offering secure parking for vehicles and extra storage space. The room previously mentioned as a potential office or kitchen space could also function excellently as a garden room or conservatory, bridging the gap between the home and the garden. The possibilities for using the spaces in and around the house are numerous, allowing the new owner to tailor the property to their specific lifestyle.

Technically, the property is sound and offers a solid foundation for modernization. It is a technically prime residence that can be modernized according to the wishes of the new owner. The property was built between 1920 and 1930, specifically in 1922, giving it a historic charm that is characteristic of the region. The energy label is currently not available, but the property features HR-glass (High Efficiency glass) to improve insulation. The heating is provided by a gas-fired combi boiler, which is owned by the property. These details indicate a home that retains its historic character while incorporating some modern conveniences.

The location of the property is one of its strongest assets. Situated in the popular monastery village of Steyl, the home offers a peaceful village atmosphere while remaining well-connected to urban amenities. The shopping centers of major cities like Venlo and Roermond, as well as the local shops in Steyl, Tegelen, and Belfeld, are all quickly accessible. Within a few minutes, one can reach the motorways leading to Eindhoven, Maastricht, Nijmegen, or Germany, making it an ideal location for commuters or those who enjoy traveling.

Tegelen, the larger municipality where Steyl is located, counts approximately 20,000 inhabitants and has been part of the municipality of Venlo since 2001. Venlo itself has over 100,000 inhabitants and offers a wide range of services and facilities. The village of Tegelen is known for its rich club life and the open-air theater De Doolhof, providing cultural and social activities nearby. Belfeld is also a short distance away and features various sights, such as the weir complex, the former town hall, and the watermill in the Maalbeek.
