Unique Combined Living and Working Property with Large Garage in Oudkarspel

This exceptional property is situated at Voorburggracht 380 in Oudkarspel, within the municipality of Dijk en Waard. The listing combines two addresses, Voorburggracht 378 and 380, creating a versatile and multifunctional real estate opportunity that seamlessly integrates residential living with commercial or hobby space under one roof.

The property originated as a coal shed and has undergone a remarkable transformation over the years. Previously serving as a charity shop, the building has evolved into a modern, multifunctional complex that now offers the unique possibility of living, working, and pursuing hobbies all in one location. This makes the property particularly attractive for entrepreneurs, self-employed professionals, or buyers who wish to combine their residence with their business activities.

The commercial section of the property is located at Voorburggracht 380 and comprises a spacious garage and workshop. This area comfortably accommodates approximately six vehicles and has been finished to a high standard. The garage features an attractive concrete floor with underfloor heating, ensuring optimal comfort throughout the year regardless of the season. The construction quality is immediately apparent, with cavity walls and insulated secondary walls contributing to a pleasant indoor climate. The workshop also benefits from a completely renewed electrical installation, a lowered ceiling with sleek finishing, and plastered walls and ceilings that give the space a modern and well-maintained appearance. Double doors provide direct access to the rear courtyard, facilitating easy movement of vehicles and goods. The versatility of this space cannot be overstated, as it is suitable not only for garaging or as a workshop but also for use as a showroom, storage facility, atelier, practice space, or small-scale business premises.

The residential component, located at Voorburggracht 378, is currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation. The first floor will house a generous three-room apartment that is being completely and high-quality renovated. The apartment has recently been excellently insulated with 90mm PIR insulation and features neatly finished walls and ceilings with attractive spack spray coating. The ceilings will be equipped with recessed spotlights, creating a modern and luxurious atmosphere throughout the living spaces.

The bathroom and separate toilet are both being fully tiled as part of the renovation. Throughout the apartment, a stylish PVC floor is being installed, providing a uniform and low-maintenance finish that complements the modern design aesthetic. A particularly noteworthy feature is the very spacious attic floor, accessible via a fixed staircase, which offers a large dormer window. This level provides ample possibilities for creating additional bedrooms, home office spaces, or hobby rooms, significantly expanding the usable living area of the property.

Over the past approximately ten years, the property has undergone numerous renovations and improvements. These include the installation of a new concrete floor with underfloor heating on the ground floor, wall insulation throughout the ground floor, entire office space, and apartment on the first floor. Largely new plastic window frames with HR++ glass have been installed on both the first floor and ground floor. The facade on the Voorburggracht side has been re-pointed, the electrical installation has been completely renewed, and heating is provided by two HR combi boilers. The floor heating in the garage and workshop has also been installed during these improvements.

One of the most interesting aspects of this property is its division into apartment rights. This creates various intriguing possibilities for prospective buyers, including partial purchase, renting out separate sections, and even a rent-to-buy arrangement. Vendor financing is also negotiable, offering additional flexibility for the acquisition.

The property sits on its own land with no leasehold complications, and there is ample parking available directly in front of the building. The location is conveniently accessible within the Oudkarspel residential area.

The preliminary energy label for the residential section is currently D. A new energy label will be provided once all renovation work is completed, and it is expected that the rating will improve significantly given the extensive insulation and modernization work being undertaken.

Additional components are available for purchase separately. An attached extra garage of 48 square meters, suitable for approximately three additional vehicles, is available for 98,000 euros. A behind-located office or practice space is also available for purchase at 149,000 euros. This allows buyers to customize their acquisition based on their specific needs and budget.

The main asking price of 595,000 euros covers the combination of the garage and upper apartment. The property offers a total living area of 168 square meters, an additional indoor space of 110 square meters, and a volume of 875 cubic meters. The building dates from 1950 and features a pitched roof covered with tiles. The layout includes seven rooms with four bedrooms, one bathroom equipped with a shower and sink, and three residential floors. The property is equipped with mechanical ventilation and cable television connections.

This property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a versatile, well-finished, and flexibly usable complex in the heart of Oudkarspel. The combination of high-quality commercial space, a modernizing residential unit, and the possibility for various forms of ownership and use makes this listing suitable for a wide range of buyers with different requirements and objectives.
