Accessible Detached Semi-Bungalow with Sauna and Roof Terrace in Zeewolde-Zuid
Key Features
Description
This detached semi-bungalow is located at Sleedoorn 31 in the Zeewolde-Zuid neighbourhood, also known as the Tweede woonwijk. Offered at €850,000 kosten koper, the property sits on a generous corner plot of 822 m² with 232 m² of living space and an energy label A rating. Built in 1991, the home has been modernised with sustainable features including solar panels, a heat pump, and high-quality insulation.
The property is specifically designed for lifelong living, with all essential facilities conveniently located on the ground floor. This makes the home particularly suitable for those seeking a residence that remains comfortable and practical as mobility needs change over time. Underfloor heating is installed throughout most of the ground floor, providing consistent warmth and comfort during colder months.
Upon entering the home, you are welcomed by a spacious entrance hall with a staircase to the first floor and a separate guest toilet. The ground floor layout is practical and thoughtfully arranged. Large windows throughout the living areas allow abundant natural light to flow in, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The living room and dining area are connected but maintain a sense of separation due to the intelligent layout. An electric fireplace in the living room adds warmth and character to the space.
The separate kitchen is generously proportioned and equipped with modern appliances, including an induction hob, extractor hood, dishwasher, combi-oven, and refrigerator. A large window in the kitchen provides a pleasant view of the rear garden, allowing you to enjoy natural daylight while cooking.
A significant feature of this property is the ground floor bedroom with built-in wardrobes, offering the convenience of single-level living. Adjacent to this bedroom is a luxurious bathroom complete with a sauna, walk-in shower, and double vanity units. Having a bedroom and full bathroom on the ground floor is a considerable advantage for those wishing to age in place without navigating stairs daily.
The former garage has been transformed into an additional multifunctional living space. This versatile room can serve as a home office, artist studio, playroom, or hobby room depending on your needs. This flexibility adds considerable value to the home, allowing it to adapt to changing lifestyle requirements over time. Note that this converted space does not have underfloor heating.
A practical utility room with connections for white goods is also located on the ground floor, ensuring daily household tasks remain convenient.
The first floor accommodates two additional generously sized bedrooms, suitable for use as children's rooms, guest rooms, or home offices. A second complete bathroom on this level means that even with a full house, there is no need to wait in line during busy mornings. In total, the property offers three toilets spread across both levels, adding to the overall convenience for residents and guests alike.
The outdoor spaces are equally noteworthy. The property features a garden that wraps around the entire home, beautifully landscaped with multiple terraces. This thoughtful design ensures you can always find a sunny or sheltered spot to relax, regardless of the time of day. On the first floor, a spacious roof terrace provides an elevated outdoor area, suitable for breakfast in the morning sun or long summer evenings with family and friends.
A tall carport is situated on the property, suitable for housing an average-sized camper or motorhome. This is a practical feature for those who enjoy travelling, allowing you to keep your vehicle safely on your own premises and ready for spontaneous trips. Additionally, a freestanding brick storage shed offers ample room for bicycles, garden tools, or hobby equipment.
Regarding technical specifications, the home features a flat roof with bituminous roofing, double glazing and HR glass, roof insulation, wall insulation, and floor insulation. Heating is provided through a combination of a central heating boiler and a heat pump, with underfloor heating on the ground floor. The central heating boiler is an ATAG 136ecz gas-fired combi boiler installed in 2024 and is owned by the homeowner. The property also benefits from fibre optic internet connectivity, an alarm system, external sun blinds, natural ventilation, and sliding doors to the garden.
The location in Zeewolde-Zuid is particularly appealing. The neighbourhood is positioned between green spaces and open water, offering a peaceful residential environment while remaining close to all essential amenities. A short walk takes you into the Horsterwold, recognised as the largest contiguous deciduous forest in Western Europe, which includes the unique nature reserve De Stille Kern. This forest provides extensive opportunities for cycling, skating, horse riding, and walking. Dogs are welcome on leads, and there are designated areas where they can roam freely. Wildlife is abundant, with deer, foxes, and beavers frequently spotted alongside a wide variety of birds.
Walking in the opposite direction for approximately ten minutes brings you to the beach at the Wolderwijd. Here you will find various themed beaches including a children's beach, a youth beach, a surfing beach, and a dog beach. A recently constructed atoll provides an open-water swimming facility. Beachside dining is available at Fika, where you can enjoy coffee during the day or a meal and drinks in the evening.
Zeewolde is a town where most amenities are accessible on foot or by bicycle. From the property on Sleedoorn, several primary schools, before and after-school care facilities, a secondary school, supermarkets, and a sports gym are all within a few minutes' cycling distance. This combination of natural surroundings and everyday convenience makes the location exceptionally attractive for a wide range of buyers.
The property is currently available, with the date of acceptance to be agreed upon mutually. In summary, this detached semi-bungalow offers age-friendly ground floor living, a generous plot in a sought-after location, energy-efficient systems, and versatile spaces that can adapt to your needs over time. With two bathrooms, three toilets, three bedrooms, multiple terraces, a carport suitable for a camper, and a location that balances natural beauty with practical convenience, this property represents a compelling opportunity for comfortable and future-ready living in Zeewolde.
