Spacious and Well-Maintained Garage Box with Generous Driveway
Key Features
Upsides
- Spacious interior of 56 m² with a generous ceiling height of 2.80 meters, providing ample room for vehicles, storage, or workshop activities.
- Well-maintained condition with recent interior and exterior painting, ensuring the property is ready for immediate use without cosmetic work required.

- The overhead door is manually operated rather than automatic, which may be less convenient for frequent use or in adverse weather conditions.
- No independent power solution is included, and any self-sufficient solar panel setup would need to be arranged and financed separately by the buyer.
- No water connections or drainage facilities are mentioned in the listing, which may limit certain types of use.
Description
This property concerns a fully owned garage box located in the municipality of Castricum. The garage box has an internal floor area of approximately 56 square meters and is situated on a plot measuring approximately 83 square meters. The property features a generous driveway that provides excellent accessibility for vehicles of various sizes.
The internal dimensions of the garage box measure approximately 9.74 meters in depth and 5.75 meters in width. This configuration provides a practical rectangular layout that allows for efficient use of the available space. The free height inside the garage is approximately 2.80 meters, which is a notable feature as it accommodates taller vehicles and provides a comfortable working environment for those who wish to use the space for hobby or workshop purposes.
Access to the garage box is provided through a manual overhead door that opens to the main driveway area. Additionally, there is a separate pedestrian door that allows for convenient entry and exit without needing to operate the large overhead door. This separate entrance is particularly practical when the space is used for activities that do not require vehicle access.
The garage box has been well maintained and is presented in a neat condition. In preparation for the sale, the current owner has had the garage completely repainted on both the interior and exterior sides. This recent attention to the appearance of the property means that the new owner will be able to take possession of a clean and presentable space that requires no immediate cosmetic work.
Regarding electrical facilities, the garage box is equipped with various work sockets distributed throughout the space. These sockets provide convenient power access for tools, lighting, or other electrical equipment that may be needed depending on the intended use of the garage. The property also features luxury lighting installations that contribute to good visibility and a pleasant atmosphere inside the space. A separate electricity sub-meter is installed, which allows for accurate tracking of the electrical consumption within the garage box itself.
The current electrical supply arrangement is connected through the adjacent cheese shop, which is also owned by the same seller. The electricity consumption of the garage box is settled on a monthly basis with the owner of the cheese shop. This arrangement has functioned well during the current ownership period. For buyers who prefer complete independence from this arrangement, the listing notes that a solution using solar panels combined with an inverter could be implemented to provide a self-contained electrical supply to the garage box.
In terms of insulation, the garage box benefits from both roof insulation and wall insulation. These insulation measures help to maintain a more stable internal temperature and reduce heat loss, which can be beneficial when the space is used for activities that require temperature control or when storing items that are sensitive to temperature fluctuations.
The property is classified as existing construction and is registered in the land registry under the designation CASTRICUM B 8089. The total cadastrally registered area is 83 square meters, which includes both the garage box footprint and the driveway area. The ownership situation is full ownership, meaning there are no leasehold or ground lease obligations associated with the property.
The asking price for this garage box is set at 91,000 euros, with the buyer being responsible for the transaction costs associated with the purchase, commonly referred to as costs koper in Dutch real estate practice. The property is currently available on the market, and the acceptance terms are stated as being open to negotiation, indicating flexibility regarding the timing of the transfer.
The versatility of this garage box is one of its notable characteristics. The space can serve multiple purposes depending on the needs and preferences of the new owner. Common uses for a property of this type include vehicle storage, general storage of household goods or recreational equipment, hobby activities, workshop purposes, or as a parking space for a car or motorcycle. The combination of generous dimensions, good height, electrical provisions, and insulation makes the garage box suitable for a wide range of applications.
The location in Castricum provides a setting that is well connected to the surrounding infrastructure. The mention of excellent accessibility in the listing description suggests that the property can be easily reached from main roads and that the driveway arrangement facilitates straightforward entry and exit with vehicles.
This garage box represents a practical real estate opportunity for individuals or businesses seeking a dedicated space for storage, parking, or hobby purposes. The recent cosmetic improvements, the presence of electrical facilities, and the insulated construction all contribute to the functionality and appeal of the property. The clear cadastral registration and full ownership status provide certainty regarding the legal aspects of the purchase.
The property is being offered in a condition that allows for immediate use by the new owner. The freshly painted interior and exterior surfaces present a well-cared-for appearance, and the electrical infrastructure is already in place for those who require power in their garage space. The separate pedestrian door adds convenience for regular access, while the overhead door accommodates vehicle entry and exit.
For potential buyers who have specific requirements regarding electrical independence, the option to install solar panels with an inverter system has been mentioned as a feasible solution. This flexibility allows buyers to customize the electrical setup according to their preferences and intended use of the space.
The garage box is classified as a parking facility in the property features, specifically categorized as a garage type. The capacity is listed as one unit, reflecting the single garage box structure. The combination of the 56 square meter internal area with the 2.80 meter ceiling height creates a voluminous space that exceeds the dimensions of a standard single garage, offering additional utility and flexibility.
