Eye-Catching 3-Room Apartment with Rooftop Terrace in Historic City Center
Key Features
Description
This apartment is situated on Snellestraat in the historic city center of 's-Hertogenbosch, also known as Den Bosch. The location is positioned on the boundary between the Centrum and Uilenburg areas, offering views of the characteristic Minderbroedersplein. The building itself dates back to 1925 and holds monument status, while the apartment interior was realized in 2017, combining historical charm with modern comfort.
The property is accessed via a shared entrance on the ground floor, leading to a staircase that takes you to the first floor where the apartment is located. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a central hall that provides access to all the main rooms in the residence. This practical layout ensures easy circulation throughout the living space.
At the front of the apartment, facing the street, you will find the spacious and bright living room. Large window sections allow for pleasant natural light to enter the space and provide an active view over the Snellestraat. The room offers ample space to create both a comfortable seating area and a dining area, making it the central hub of the home.
The modern open kitchen connects seamlessly with the living room. The kitchen is functionally designed and equipped with various built-in appliances to support daily cooking activities. These include a refrigerator, an oven, a four-burner gas cooktop, and a dishwasher. Additional storage space has been incorporated into the kitchen design, making it both practical and comfortable to use for meal preparation and entertaining.
Located at the quieter rear side of the property are two well-proportioned bedrooms. Both rooms offer flexibility in their use and can serve as sleeping quarters, a home office space, or a guest room depending on the needs of the residents. The positioning at the back of the building ensures these rooms benefit from a more peaceful atmosphere compared to the street-facing living area.
One of the bedrooms provides direct access to the rooftop terrace, creating a convenient indoor-outdoor living experience. This connection is particularly valuable during warmer months when outdoor relaxation becomes a priority.
The bathroom is accessible from the central hall and has been practically furnished with a walk-in shower and a vanity unit with washbasin. The laundry connections for washing appliances have also been positioned in this space, keeping utility functions consolidated in one area. A separate toilet, also accessible from the hall, adds to the practicality of the floor plan by allowing simultaneous use of facilities.
The rooftop terrace, measuring 18 square meters of building-bound outdoor space, is situated at the rear of the property. This outdoor area offers a sheltered spot for sitting outside and provides sufficient room for a seating arrangement or lounge furniture. The terrace serves as a valuable extension of the living space, particularly for an apartment in a central urban location where private outdoor areas are often limited.
In terms of building specifications, the property features a composite roof covered with bituminous roofing material and tiles. The apartment benefits from mechanical ventilation to ensure good air quality throughout the living spaces. Insulation measures include double glazing, floor insulation, and secondary windows, which contribute to the achieved Energy Label A rating. Heating and hot water are provided by a gas-fired combination boiler that was installed in 2017 and is owned by the property, meaning it transfers to the new owner.
The service costs for this apartment are structured in two parts. The homeowners association contribution is set at 34 euros per month. Additionally, there is an advance payment of 150 euros per month covering energy, water, and wifi services. The homeowners association is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, collects periodic contributions, maintains a reserve fund, and has building insurance in place. It should be noted that according to the listing details, annual general meetings are not held and there is no formal maintenance plan in place.
The location of this property is characterized by its absolute centrality within 's-Hertogenbosch. All essential amenities are within walking distance, including cafes, restaurants, boutique shops, specialty stores, and supermarkets for daily grocery needs. Cultural facilities such as museums, a cinema, and the prominent Sint-Janskathedraal are all situated nearby. The area offers the full experience of city living, from morning coffee at local coffee bars to evening dining on terraces enjoying the bourgondian atmosphere.
For transportation, the Central Station is accessible by foot or bicycle and provides direct rail connections to cities including Utrecht, Eindhoven, and Amsterdam. Motorway access to the A2 and A59 is also readily available for those traveling by car. Parking in the immediate vicinity consists of paid on-street parking, nearby parking garages, and the possibility of obtaining parking permits.
Despite its central and vibrant location, the apartment itself offers a surprisingly quiet living environment. The design allows residents to leave the bustling city atmosphere behind once inside, enjoying privacy and comfort in their own space. The rear-facing bedrooms and terrace particularly benefit from this contrast between the lively street scene at the front and the more serene setting at the back.
The asking price for this property is 409,000 euros, which is payable on a costs koper basis meaning the buyer is responsible for transfer taxes and notary fees. This translates to approximately 6,705 euros per square meter of living space. The property is offered with acceptance in consultation, and the ownership situation is full freehold. The cadastre reference is 'S-HERTOGENBOSCH G 8410.
