Spacious maisonette with southwest-facing balcony in Dordrecht

This well-maintained maisonette apartment is situated on the upper floors of a cared-for apartment complex in the Crabbehof neighborhood of Dordrecht. The property spans two residential levels, offering a practical and spacious layout that is suitable for various living situations.

The apartment is located on the seventh and eighth floors of the building, which was constructed in 1961. Residents benefit from the presence of a lift installation, making access to the upper floors convenient. On the ground floor level, there is a communal hall with an intercom system, and the apartment comes with a private storage unit equipped with electricity.

Upon entering the apartment on the seventh floor, you arrive in a hall that provides access to the various rooms. The meter cupboard is located in the stairwell and contains seven circuit groups, two earth leakage switches, and a main switch. A fixed storage cupboard offers additional space for storing items. The partially tiled toilet room is fitted with a wall-hung toilet.

The living room on this level features a laminate floor and benefits from natural light. A sliding door provides access to the balcony, which is oriented towards the southwest, allowing for afternoon and evening sun exposure. A fixed staircase leads from the living room to the eighth floor where the bedrooms are located.

The kitchen is accessible from the living area and comes equipped with several built-in appliances. These include a ceramic hob, a stainless steel extractor hood, a fridge-freezer combination, a dishwasher, and a combination microwave. The kitchen also houses the boiler for hot water supply.

The eighth floor comprises an landing that gives access to three bedrooms, the bathroom, and a fixed cupboard with connections for laundry appliances. The first bedroom is situated at the front of the building and has a laminate floor with a tilt-and-turn window. The second bedroom is located at the rear and also features a laminate floor and tilt-and-turn window. The third bedroom, also positioned at the rear, includes a laminate floor, tilt-and-turn window, and a built-in wardrobe for extra storage capacity.

The fully tiled bathroom is equipped with a walk-in shower, a vanity unit, and mechanical ventilation. This arrangement provides a functional space for daily use.

Regarding the technical aspects of the property, the apartment has plastic window frames with double glazing throughout. Heating is provided through block heating, which is a centralized system serving multiple units in the complex. Hot water is supplied via an electric boiler, which is rented at a cost of 18.97 euros per month. The current energy label is E, though this is expected to improve following the implementation of planned sustainability measures.

The apartment is built on own ground, meaning there is no ground lease to consider. Parking is available on public roads in the vicinity of the complex.

The location in the Crabbehof-Noord district offers several practical advantages. A shopping center is within walking distance, providing convenient access to daily necessities. Primary schools and other educational facilities are located nearby. Public transport connections are good, with the NS station Dordrecht Zuid accessible in the immediate area. For motorists, the proximity to the N3, A15, and A16 motorways allows for efficient travel to cities such as Rotterdam and Breda.

The Owners Association is properly organized and registered with the Chamber of Commerce. Annual meetings are held, and there is a maintenance plan in place along with a reserve fund. The building is insured through an opstalverzekering. The monthly VvE contribution amounts to 323.52 euros, which covers both the apartment and the storage unit. Additionally, there is an advance payment of 49.96 euros per month for heating costs.

A significant sustainability plan has been approved during the VvE meeting of March 10, 2026. This plan includes several measures that will substantially improve the energy efficiency of the building. The first measure involves replacing the existing window frames and doors with insulating frames fitted with HR+++ glass. The second measure concerns insulating the roof. The third measure involves insulating the storage units and storage corridors. The fourth measure entails applying exterior wall insulation with stone strip finish on the yellow facades and plaster on the piers next to the kitchens. The fifth measure introduces CO2-controlled ventilation. The sixth and final measure involves replacing and hydronically balancing all radiators.

These sustainability measures represent a considerable investment in the building and will likely result in a significantly improved energy label, lower energy costs for residents, and increased comfort through better insulation and ventilation. Prospective buyers should take these planned improvements into account when considering the property.

The sale will be conducted using the standard purchase agreement drafted by NVM, Vastgoed Nederland, and Vereniging Eigen Huis. As the property is older than 20 years, the standard asbestos and age clauses will be included in the agreement. Buyers who purchase without a financing reservation are required to provide a bank guarantee or deposit the security amount within 14 days after the conclusion of the purchase agreement.

The stated dimensions and surface areas in the listing information are indicative. The living area measures 78 square meters, the building-related outdoor space measures 5 square meters, and the external storage space measures 9 square meters. The total volume of the apartment is 246 cubic meters. For exact measurements, reference is made to the digital floor plans.

This maisonette presents itself as a solid residential option in a practical location with good amenities in the surrounding area. The approved sustainability plan adds a forward-looking element to the property, suggesting that the energy performance and overall living comfort will improve in the coming years.
