Starter home with deep garden in Etten-Leur

Van der Poest Clementstraat 31 in Etten-Leur presents an excellent opportunity for those entering the housing market. This terraced house from 1960 offers a practical layout with three bedrooms and a surprisingly deep backyard. Several updates have already been carried out, including the installation of plastic window frames with HR++ glass on the living floors and the addition of roof insulation. The property features a storage room, a canopy, and a deep garden facing northeast. The location is convenient, with parking directly in front of the door, a primary school and bus stop around the corner, and shops at the Van Bergenplein less than two minutes away by bike.

Upon returning home by bicycle, you can access the property via the back alley leading to the garden. This route takes you immediately under the canopy, ensuring you stay dry regardless of the weather. To the left of the canopy is the storage shed, offering ample space for your bike. If you arrive by car, you can park on the sidewalk in the street or in designated parking spaces directly opposite the house, which is convenient for unloading groceries.

The maintenance-friendly front garden leads to the plastic front door. This opens into a spacious hall containing the meter cupboard, stairs to the first floor, a cellar cupboard, a toilet, and the door to the living room. The meter cupboard is equipped with sufficient modern groups and residual current devices. Smart meters for gas and electricity are present, along with an extra socket. The water meter is located in the water meter pit just behind the front door, where a practical doormat is placed to keep the floor clean.

Under the stairs, you will find a sunken cellar cupboard ideal for storing supplies and keeping items cool. The toilet is modern and finished with a floating toilet, a small sink, tiled walls, and a sleek ceiling with recessed spotlights. The floor in the hall is made of PVC and continues through the living room and kitchen, providing a calm and uniform look throughout the ground floor.

The ground floor and first floor were completely fitted with plastic window frames with HR++ glass and plastic turn-tilt windows in 2022. This gives the home a modern appearance and increases comfort. In the living room, large windows at the front and back ensure plenty of natural light. At the front, there is ample space for a large corner sofa. The back offers enough room for a dining table with six chairs, situated opposite the open kitchen. This layout makes the house suitable for starters, providing space to start the day, eat, and host friends or family.

The open corner kitchen is practically laid out and fully equipped. It features lower cabinets with a countertop containing a ceramic hob and an extractor fan above. Additionally, the kitchen has a sink with a mixer tap, a fridge with a small freezer compartment, a combination microwave, and a dishwasher. There are also various drawers and cupboards for kitchen utensils. Daily convenience has been considered, with double sockets above the countertop and an apothecary cabinet for storage. The kitchen space is approximately 3.61 meters wide and 2.57 meters deep. A plastic door leads from the kitchen to the backyard, which includes a screen door to keep insects out while keeping the door open.

The backyard is a significant feature of this home, with a depth of approximately 17.37 meters and a width of 6.18 meters. It faces northeast and is laid out in a maintenance-friendly manner. The length makes the garden feel spacious and offers various possibilities for a large dining table, a lounge set, a trampoline, or a swimming pool. Because of the depth, you can find a sunny or shady spot at any time of the day.

At the rear of the garden stands a canopy approximately 3.23 meters wide and 6.31 meters deep, allowing for outdoor sitting for a large part of the year. The canopy is equipped with electricity and lighting. Next to it is a stone storage shed measuring about 2.31 meters wide and 3.79 meters deep for storing bikes and garden items. An outdoor tap is located against the rear wall for watering the garden or filling a pool.

The fixed staircase leads to the first-floor landing, which provides access to three bedrooms, the bathroom, a practical fixed cupboard, and the stairs to the second floor. The landing offers extra storage space for items like towels and laundry supplies.

The bathroom is located at the front of the house, fully tiled, and neatly finished. It includes a bathroom cabinet with a mirror and a spacious walk-in shower with a hand shower, rain shower, and thermostat tap. All daily necessities are present in this modern and practical setup.

Two bedrooms are situated at the rear. The room on the left rear measures approximately 2.07 meters wide and 2.56 meters deep, making it suitable as a nursery, home office, or walk-in closet. The larger bedroom on the right rear measures about 3.58 meters wide and 3.59 meters deep, serving as a comfortable main bedroom with space for a double bed, nightstands, and a wardrobe. The third bedroom is at the front, measuring approximately 3.58 meters wide and 2.95 meters deep, usable as a child's room, guest room, or workspace.

All rooms have plastic turn-tilt windows with screens, ensuring comfort and good ventilation. Having three bedrooms on this floor offers more possibilities than often found in starter homes. The second floor is accessible via a fixed staircase. Here you will find the HR combi boiler from Intergas, installed in 2017. This floor also houses the washing machine and dryer. The attic space is accessible from the landing and has standing height in the center, making it useful for storage or drying laundry.
