Description
This well-maintained terraced house is located in the Stadspolders district of Dordrecht and offers a practical and comfortable living arrangement for families or individuals seeking a home with multiple bedrooms. The property was built in 1991 and has been kept in good condition over the years, with recent updates including a completely renovated ground floor toilet in 2024.
The ground floor layout begins with an entrance hall that houses the meter cupboard featuring one main switch, one earth leakage switch, and eight circuit groups. From the hall, there is access to the toilet, the staircase to the first floor, and the door leading to the living room. The flooring throughout the ground floor consists of attractive PVC herringbone pattern, with the listing noting an installation date of April 2026, which appears to be a typographical error and likely refers to a past year. The walls feature spachtelputz finish, providing a clean and smooth appearance.
The living room is a welcoming space with the same PVC herringbone flooring and spachtelputz wall treatment. A built-in cupboard under the stairs offers additional storage space, and a door provides direct access to the backyard. The open kitchen is arranged in a U-shape configuration and comes equipped with various built-in appliances including a four-burner gas hob, extractor hood, oven, refrigerator-freezer combination, and dishwasher. The kitchen also offers ample storage with numerous drawers and cabinets.
The ground floor toilet was fully renovated in 2024 and is completely tiled, featuring a wall-hung toilet and a small sink. This recent update adds to the overall appeal of the ground floor facilities.
Moving to the first floor, the landing provides access to three bedrooms, the bathroom, and the staircase leading to the second floor. The flooring on this level is laminate, with spachtelputz wall finish throughout. The first bedroom is situated at the rear of the property and features a skylight. The second bedroom is located at the front of the house. The third bedroom is also positioned at the rear. All three bedrooms have laminate flooring and spachtelputz walls.
The fully tiled bathroom on the first floor includes a shower, a large sink with vanity unit, a towel cabinet, a mirror, a designer radiator, and a second wall-hung toilet. This configuration means the property offers two toilets in total, which is convenient for a family household.
The second floor features a landing area with a skylight, storage space behind sliding panels, connections for a washing machine and dryer, and the location of the central heating boiler. There is also access to the fourth bedroom from this landing. The fourth bedroom has a skylight, laminate flooring, wallpaper on the walls, and additional storage space behind panels. The central heating system consists of a Remeha Quinta combi boiler from 2007, which is included in the sale.
The backyard is positioned to face south, which means it receives plenty of sunlight throughout the day. The garden measures approximately 45 square meters, with dimensions of 9 meters in depth and 5 meters in width. There is a wooden shed that has electricity connected, an outdoor tap, and a rear access path. An electrically operated awning is installed and available for transfer to the new owner. The front garden also has an outdoor tap and provides space to park two cars on the property itself, in addition to available public parking in the area.
The property holds an energy label B rating, valid until May 2036. Insulation consists of double glazing throughout the windows. The roof is a gable roof covered with tiles. Additional features include fiber optic cable connection, mechanical ventilation, and TV cable availability.
The Stadspolders neighborhood offers a convenient location with various amenities within a five-minute walk. These include shops, a bus stop, the Stadspolders NS train station, schools, churches, a health center, a library, and a Grand Café. Sports and recreation facilities are also available in the immediate vicinity. For motorists, the property is well-positioned relative to the N3, A16, and A15 highways, providing good connectivity to surrounding areas.
The property is offered at an asking price of 425,000 euros, with the buyer responsible for the transfer costs (kosten koper). The plot measures 120 square meters and is owned outright (volle eigendom). The living area is measured at 94 square meters according to the NEN-2580 standard, with an additional 4 square meters of external storage space. The kadastal designation is Dordrecht, section R, number 2956.
Delivery of the property is planned for the beginning of the first quarter of 2027, subject to consultation. The selling agent requires a bank guarantee or deposit of 10 percent of the purchase price from the buyer for security after final mortgage approval, one week after the expiration of the financing contingency conditions. It should be noted that under Dutch law, a verbal agreement between private seller and buyer is not legally binding. A legally valid sale only occurs when both parties have signed the written purchase agreement, as stipulated in Article 7:2 of the Dutch Civil Code.
The property is listed as partially furnished and is currently available on the market. The listing has been compiled with due care, though the agent accepts no liability for any incompleteness, inaccuracies, or consequences thereof. All stated dimensions and areas are indicative.
