Modern Detached Family Home with South-Facing Garden and Energy Efficiency
Key Features
Upsides
- The property is energy-efficient with an Energy Label A, 8 solar panels installed in 2023, and full insulation, including HR glass.
- It offers flexible living spaces, including a fully insulated garage with floor heating that can easily be converted into additional living space or a home office.
- The home is situated in a quiet, young residential area on a dead-end street with a south-facing garden that borders a green strip for enhanced privacy.
Downsides

- There are currently only three bedrooms listed, which may be limiting for larger families despite the large size of the home, although the attic offers standing height.

Description
Located within a youthful and quiet residential neighborhood, this detached residence offers an excellent example of modern, sustainable living. Built in 2013, the property is maintained to a high standard and is ready for immediate occupancy. The home combines comfort, high-quality finishing, and durability in a spacious family layout. Its detached position provides a sense of freedom, while the south-facing backyard ensures daily enjoyment of sunlight and privacy. The construction was carried out under private supervision using exclusively premium building materials, and the design accommodates future age-friendly living adaptations with relative ease.
Upon entering the home, one immediately notices the spacious layout of the ground floor. The hallway provides access to the modern toilet, the extensive meter cupboard, the staircase, and the inviting kitchen. The kitchen serves as a cozy central hub within the house and can be separated from the living room by stylish en-suite sliding doors featuring stained glass. At the end of 2022, the kitchen underwent a modernization process which included the installation of a composite worktop, renewed cabinet fronts, a new induction cooktop, and a modern extractor hood. The culinary space is further equipped with various high-quality built-in appliances, including a combination microwave, a hot air oven, a dishwasher, a built-in coffee machine, and a refrigerator with a freshness compartment. A freestanding bar unit provides additional work and storage space, completing the functionality of the kitchen.
The generous living room features a playful layout with a spacious seating and dining area, as well as a separate seating area with a wood-burning stove. This additional space lends itself perfectly for use as a playroom, a home workspace, or a reading nook. Alternatively, this section can be easily adapted to serve as a bedroom with an adjoining bathroom, utilizing the current utility room space. French patio doors connect the living room directly to the covered terrace and the sunny garden. The entire ground floor is finished with a light tile floor equipped with comfortable floor heating, which also functions as the main heating system for the home.
Attached to the main structure is a fully insulated garage that also features floor heating. Thanks to its generous dimensions and high-quality finish, this space offers ample possibilities for multifunctional use, such as a practice room, a home office, or extra living space. By relatively simply installing a window frame with a door, the living area can be immediately expanded by approximately 37 square meters. The utility room currently houses the central heating installation, the floor heating distributor, and the connections for laundry appliances. Preparations have already been made in this room for the installation of a future bathroom, facilitating the potential for creating ground-floor living quarters.
The first floor of the residence hosts three spacious bedrooms, a bathroom, a separate toilet room, and a technical space. The master bedroom benefits from a large sliding wardrobe wall offering abundant hanging and shelf space. The other bedrooms are of a pleasing size and are finished with high-quality laminate flooring. The luxury bathroom is fully equipped with a walk-in shower, a bathtub, double Duravit washbasins with built-in faucets, and a stylish vanity unit. Built-in lighting and integrated Bluetooth speakers in the ceiling contribute to the extra comfort and atmosphere of the room.
A loft ladder provides access to the spacious storage attic which offers standing height. This area houses the inverter for the eight solar panels and features two Velux roof windows for natural light intake. The property places a strong emphasis on outdoor living. The beautifully landscaped garden surrounds the house and borders a green strip, ensuring optimal privacy. Due to its sunny southern orientation, it is a delightful place to enjoy the outdoors throughout the day. Directly adjacent to the house is a covered terrace equipped with light domes. The garden is fully laid out with mature beech hedges, flower borders, and a lawn. Additionally, there are two practical side entrances.
A detached wooden shed is present, equipped with electricity and two light domes, and contains an automatic Rain Bird sprinkler system. The property is characterized by its excellent maintenance status and energy efficiency, boasting Energy Label A. It is prepared for gas-free or hybrid living. The roof is a saddle roof and the windows feature HR glass. The home is located on a quiet dead-end street with a playing field opposite, providing a safe environment for children. The location is favorable with respect to the town center and main roads. This comfortable and future-proof family home perfectly combines space, quality, and sustainability.
