Key Features
Upsides
- Energy Efficiency
- The property boasts an impressive Energy Label A+++ and is fully gasless. Equipped with a heat pump, heat recovery ventilation, and full floor heating, the home ensures very low energy costs and a comfortable indoor climate year-round.
- Modern Living Condition
- Built in 2021, this residence feels virtually new with significant updates made as recently as 2024. All flooring has been renewed, featuring a stylish PVC herringbone pattern on the first and second floors and high-quality laminate on the attic level.

- Unlike many apartments, this maisonette offers a delightful private outdoor area in the form of a 12 m² roof terrace. Additionally, the inclusion of a separate external storage shed of 6 m² offers convenient space for storage.
Downsides
- Parking Situation
- The property relies on public parking for vehicle storage. There is no dedicated private parking spot or garage included with the unit, which may require residents to compete for on-street parking spaces.
- Limited Bedroom Count
- With a total of two bedrooms, the layout may be restrictive for larger families or those requiring a home office space in addition to sleeping quarters.
- Apartment Constraints
- As a maisonette located on the second floor, residents must navigate stairs to access the home, which could be a consideration for those with limited mobility. Living in an apartment complex also involves adherence to Owners Association rules and potential noise from neighbors.
Description
Located in the charming Westend district of Roelofarendsveen, this modern maisonette apartment at Saffier 69 represents a fantastic opportunity for those seeking a contemporary and energy-efficient lifestyle. Constructed in 2021, this residence feels remarkably fresh and combines the practicality of apartment living with the spaciousness often associated with a family home. The property spans three distinct levels, offering a generous living area of approximately 91 square meters. This smart layout ensures that every square meter is utilized effectively, providing ample room for comfortable daily living.
The home is designed with a strong focus on sustainability and modern comfort. Being entirely gas-free, it is at the forefront of environmentally friendly living. The heating and hot water needs are managed by a sophisticated heat pump system and an electric boiler, ensuring that the home is not only eco-friendly but also economical to run. The property holds an Energy Label A+++, which is the highest possible rating, testament to its excellent insulation and energy-efficient installations. The entire property is fitted with floor heating, creating a pleasant and even warmth throughout the living spaces without the need for unsightly radiators.
Upon entering the home, one immediately notices the quality of the finishes. In 2024, all floors were renewed to a high standard. The first and second floors now feature a stylish PVC herringbone floor. This choice of material is not only aesthetically pleasing but also durable and easy to maintain, adding a touch of luxury to the interior. The attic floor has been finished with neat laminate, creating a cohesive look across the different levels of the home. The use of herringbone patterns adds a sense of character and depth to the rooms, enhancing the modern atmosphere.
The layout is both practical and versatile. The accommodation includes two well-proportioned bedrooms, providing peaceful retreats for rest and relaxation. The bathroom is modern and equipped with a shower, toilet, and washbasin furniture, catering to all daily needs with ease. A separate toilet on the living floor adds to the convenience for residents and guests alike. The true highlight of the interior is the spacious attic floor. This versatile area offers a multitude of possibilities, whether used as a home office, a guest room, a play area, or simply as additional storage space. The flexibility of this floor allows the home to adapt to the changing needs of its inhabitants.
Stepping outside, residents can enjoy a delightful private roof terrace. Measuring 12 square meters, this outdoor space is a true asset in an apartment complex. It offers a private spot to enjoy the morning sun, dine al fresco in the evening, or simply relax with a book. The terrace provides an extension of the living space during the warmer months, allowing residents to enjoy the outdoors without leaving the comfort of their home. Furthermore, the property includes a separate external storage unit of 6 square meters. This shed is invaluable for storing bicycles, garden furniture, or outdoor equipment, keeping the main living areas clutter-free.
The location in the Westend neighborhood is highly desirable. This residential area is known for its pleasant atmosphere and community feel. Despite the quiet surroundings, the home is strategically located close to the center of Roelofarendsveen. Residents have easy access to a wide range of amenities, including shops for daily groceries, restaurants for dining out, schools for families, and various sports facilities. The convenience of having everything within a short distance contributes significantly to the quality of life in this home.
The technical infrastructure of the building is robust and well-managed. The property is part of an active Owners Association, which ensures the maintenance of common areas and the building envelope. The monthly contribution of 115 euros covers these costs and contributes to a reserve fund, providing financial security for future maintenance. The presence of a professional maintenance plan and building insurance ensures that the property is well looked after, giving owners peace of mind. Additionally, the home is equipped with mechanical ventilation and solar panels, further enhancing its green credentials.
Security and comfort are also well considered. The property is located on the second floor, which often provides a good balance between privacy and accessibility. The inclusion of triple glass throughout the property ensures excellent thermal insulation as well as noise reduction, creating a quiet and serene indoor environment. The comprehensive insulation in the roof, walls, and floors minimizes heat loss, keeping the home warm in winter and cool in summer.
Living in a maisonette offers a unique blend of privacy and community. Unlike a standard flat where you might only have neighbors on the same floor, the vertical layout here often means you share fewer walls with neighbors, creating a greater sense of autonomy. The internal staircase connecting the floors adds a dynamic architectural element to the home, separating the active living areas from the quieter sleeping zones. This separation is ideal for modern living where work, rest, and play often happen simultaneously under one roof.
The Westend neighborhood itself is a gem within Roelofarendsveen. It is a relatively young and well-planned area, characterized by wide streets, green spaces, and a variety of housing types that create a diverse and vibrant community. For families, the proximity to schools is a significant advantage, allowing children to walk or cycle to school safely. The availability of sports facilities nearby encourages an active lifestyle, whether you enjoy football, tennis, or simply jogging through the local parks. The nearby shopping center offers not just daily necessities but also a range of specialty shops and cafes, making it a social hub for the neighborhood.
Furthermore, the connectivity of Roelofarendsveen is excellent. While the listing focuses on the immediate amenities, the town is well-connected to major road networks, making it easy to commute to larger cities like Amsterdam, The Hague, or Leiden. This makes the property an excellent choice for commuters who wish to return to a peaceful and quiet home environment at the end of the work day. The balance between the tranquility of the Westend district and the accessibility of the Randstad is a key selling point for this location.
The technical installation of the heat pump is worth noting in more detail. As the heart of the home's climate control, it extracts heat from the outside air or ground to heat the home and water. This technology is far more efficient than traditional gas boilers, significantly reducing the carbon footprint of the residence. Coupled with the mechanical ventilation system that includes heat recovery, the home maintains a constant supply of fresh air without losing valuable heat. This creates a healthy indoor climate, free from drafts and cold spots, which is particularly beneficial for those with allergies or respiratory issues.
The financial aspect of owning an energy-neutral home is also compelling. With energy prices being a significant consideration for homeowners, the A+++ label assures prospective buyers of predictability in their monthly expenses. The solar panels contribute to the electricity needs of the heat pump and household appliances, potentially lowering energy bills to near zero in optimal conditions. This economic efficiency, combined with the solid construction quality of a 2021 build, suggests that the property will hold its value well in the future.
In summary, this maisonette at Saffier 69 offers a turnkey solution for buyers looking for a modern, move-in ready home. The combination of a new build, recent flooring updates, high energy efficiency, and a prime location makes it a standout property. Whether you are a young professional, a couple, or a small family, this home provides the perfect backdrop for a comfortable and sustainable lifestyle. The attention to detail in the installations and the quality of the finishes mean that you can simply move in and start enjoying your new home immediately.
