Spacious Corner Home with Sunny Garden in Child-Friendly Neighborhood
Key Features
Description
This well-maintained corner house is situated in a child-friendly residential area near the center of Oude Pekela. The property was built around 1972 using traditional construction methods and has been updated with modern features while retaining its solid structure.
The house occupies a corner plot of approximately 260 square meters of private land. The outdoor space has been designed to be low-maintenance while still offering an enjoyable garden experience. A notable feature is the covered terrace in the backyard, which is equipped with glass sliding walls and a wood-burning stove. This setup allows the space to be used comfortably even during cooler periods in spring and autumn. The garden receives sunlight throughout most of the day, providing options to find both sunny and shaded spots depending on preference.
In front of the property, there is a grass field where children can play safely. This open space contributes to the family-friendly character of the neighborhood and provides an unobstructed view from the dining area of the home.
The ground floor layout begins with an entrance area that includes a toilet. From there, you proceed to a central hallway that provides access to the stairs leading to the upper floors, the living room, and the kitchen. The living room is designed as a through-room, meaning it spans the depth of the house and benefits from natural light entering from multiple directions. The dining section of this room offers a pleasant view of the grass field in front of the property.
The kitchen is positioned separately from the living room and features a straight countertop arrangement. It has been updated with a modern appearance and includes several built-in appliances. Among these are a five-burner gas cooktop, a dishwasher, and a refrigerator. The countertop is made of natural stone, which adds a durable and attractive surface for food preparation.
The first floor contains a landing that connects to three bedrooms and a bathroom. The bathroom is fitted with a walk-in shower, a second toilet, and two washbasins. These facilities provide convenience for a family household.
Access to the second floor is via a fixed staircase. This level currently serves as a utility area with space for a washing machine and dryer. The room offers the possibility to be finished as a fourth bedroom, providing flexibility to adapt the living space to the needs of the residents.
The property has undergone sustainability improvements. In 2022, twelve solar panels were installed on the roof, and additional roof insulation was added. These measures contribute to the energy label A rating. The window frames are made of wood and fitted with double glazing, with some windows featuring HR glass for improved insulation.
Heating and hot water are provided by a Remeha gas-fired combination boiler from approximately 2016. It should be noted that this boiler is under a lease agreement, which potential buyers should investigate further during the purchasing process.
The floors throughout the ground level are primarily made of stone-like materials and are finished with either laminate or floor tiles. This combination offers practicality and ease of maintenance for daily living.
The total living area measures 121 square meters, distributed across three floors. Additionally, there is an external storage space of 34 square meters, which consists of a detached stone shed equipped with electricity. This shed provides useful space for storing garden equipment, bicycles, or other items.
The gross volume of the house is 429 cubic meters. The backyard has dimensions of approximately 9.50 meters in depth and 11.50 meters in width, resulting in an area of 109 square meters. Access to the rear of the property is possible via a side path.
Parking for residents and visitors is available on the public road in front of the property. The house is located on a quiet street within a residential area, contributing to a peaceful living environment.
The property is offered at an asking price of 239,000 euros, which translates to approximately 1,975 euros per square meter of living space. The purchase is subject to the costs associated with acquiring property (kosten koper). The preferred date of transfer can be discussed between the buyer and seller.
Oude Pekela is a village in the province of Groningen in the northern part of the Netherlands. The location of this property offers proximity to local amenities in the village center while being situated in a quiet residential setting.

This corner house presents itself as a practical family home with modern updates, energy-efficient features, and outdoor spaces designed for comfortable living. The combination of four potential bedrooms, a covered terrace for extended seasonal use, and a location near play areas makes it suitable for households with children. The recent sustainability improvements add to the long-term value and reduce ongoing energy costs for future residents.
