Description
This detached property is situated in the most historic part of Puttershoek, a charming village in the Netherlands. The house was originally built in 1899 and stands on a plot of 510 square meters of private land. Since 2021, the current owner has carried out extensive renovations and sustainability improvements, resulting in an impressive energy label A+.
The sustainability measures undertaken are comprehensive. The facade, roof, and floors have been insulated to modern standards. The windows and frames have been largely replaced with plastic versions featuring double and triple glazing. A total of 18 solar panels have been installed on the roof, contributing significantly to reduced energy costs. The walls have been smoothly plastered, and the side facade has been cleaned, treated, and painted.
Upon entering the property, you arrive in a spacious hallway. The ground floor currently features one bedroom, which could alternatively serve as a home office or playroom for children. Various skylights have been installed throughout the home, ensuring pleasant natural daylight enters the interior spaces. The generous toilet room is fitted with a wall-hung toilet and an attractive Belgian hardstone washbasin. A separate utility room houses the washing machine and the electrical meter cabinet.
The kitchen is a notable feature of this home, designed in a robust style with a wall unit and a kitchen island. The kitchen is equipped with various built-in appliances including a four-burner induction cooktop with an integrated extractor hood, a dishwasher, an oven, a Quooker instant boiling water tap, and a freestanding American-style refrigerator-freezer. This refrigerator is connected to the water supply and provides cold filtered tap water, crushed ice, and ice cubes.
The living room is located at the front of the house. The floor is finished with tiles and features comfortable underfloor heating, adding to the overall comfort of the space.
The first floor contains two additional bedrooms, a separate toilet room, and the bathroom. The bathroom is spacious and bright, finished with a bathtub, a walk-in shower with a rain showerhead, and a double vanity unit. Brushed nickel faucets emerge from the wall, providing a refined detail. The bathroom floor is equipped with electric underfloor heating.
For additional climate control, two air conditioning units have been installed in the property. A water softener system is also present, contributing to the longevity of plumbing fixtures and appliances.
The deep backyard faces southeast, which is a favorable orientation for enjoying sunlight throughout the day. The garden measures 245 square meters, with a depth of 24.5 meters and a width of 10 meters. A shed is located in the garden, and an additional storage structure with a canopy has been built adjacent to the house, providing ample space for storing belongings and outdoor equipment.
The front of the property offers a driveway with space for multiple vehicles or for parking a caravan. Parking is available on the property's own grounds.
The location of this home offers practical advantages. Shops, schools, and supermarkets are within walking distance. Public transportation is also accessible on foot. The surrounding polder area provides opportunities for nature walks, allowing residents to enjoy the peaceful countryside environment while having daily amenities close by.
The property has a total living area of 136 square meters, with an additional 31 square meters of built-on outdoor space and 40 square meters of external storage space. The total volume of the building is 501 cubic meters. The house has two residential floors and features a gabled roof covered with tiles.
The heating system consists of a Remeha CW5 gas-fired combination boiler from 2021, which is owned by the current owner. The property has mechanical ventilation, contributing to good indoor air quality.
It should be noted that the purchase agreement will include an age clause due to the construction year of 1899. This is standard practice for older properties in the Netherlands and provides certain protections for both buyer and seller regarding potential hidden defects related to the age of the building.
The delivery of the property can be arranged by mutual agreement, with the possibility of a relatively short delivery period if desired.
This property combines the character and charm of a historic home with the benefits of modern renovations and sustainable features. The energy label A+ is particularly noteworthy for a building of this age, reflecting the significant investments made in insulation and renewable energy generation. The location in the historic center of Puttershoek, combined with the proximity of amenities and natural areas, makes this a property suited for those seeking a balance between village atmosphere and modern living comfort.
