Key Features
Description
This property located at Voorvisser 8 in the Westerkoog Midden neighborhood of Koog aan de Zaan presents a well maintained family home with 127 square meters of living space spread across three floors. The asking price is 525,000 euros, which is equivalent to approximately 4,134 euros per square meter. The house was originally built in 1980 and has since undergone numerous significant upgrades and renovations that have brought it to a modern standard of living.
The ground floor features a spacious living room combined with an open kitchen that was completely renovated in 2020. This comprehensive renovation included the installation of a modern kitchen equipped with exclusive AEG appliances, an induction cooking plate, a dishwasher, a refrigerator with a separate freezer compartment, and a natural stone countertop. The walls and ceiling were replastered during this renovation, and the existing rustic oak hardwood floor received a complete makeover. Large windows in the living area provide abundant natural light and create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the main living space.
A significant extension was added to the property in 2001, spanning the full width of the house. This extension includes a convection pit, French doors opening to the garden, and the beautiful oak hardwood floor that continues throughout the ground floor. The extension substantially increased the living space and created a seamless connection between the interior and the outdoor area.
The first floor contains three generous bedrooms and a complete bathroom that was installed in 2017. The bathroom is fitted with a rain shower, a wall mounted toilet, a washbasin, and a bathtub. Underfloor heating was also installed in the bathroom to enhance comfort. Additionally, there is a separate toilet on this floor for added convenience.
The second floor comprises a large fourth bedroom along with an additional space that can serve as a study, home office, hobby room, or guest room. The attic area has been fitted with two plastic dormer windows that bring in extra light and create a sense of spaciousness. The listing mentions the possibility to easily expand to five sleeping areas, indicating the flexibility of the upper floor layout.
The property has an energy label C, which reflects the various insulation improvements that have been made over the years. In 2007, the plastic window frames were renewed with energy saving HR glazing, and all wooden exterior parts were replaced with durable Keralit. Additional interior wall insulation was installed in 2014 to further improve the thermal performance of the building. The property features insulation in the roof, walls, and floors, as well as double glazing throughout. Heating and hot water are provided by a gas fired combination boiler, which is under a lease arrangement.

The outdoor area has been thoughtfully designed with a custom made seating area equipped with infrared heating, allowing for extended outdoor enjoyment during cooler evenings. There is also a second sizeable storage building adjacent to the garden, in addition to the main attached stone storage shed that has electricity connected.
Parking is available on the property's own grounds, providing convenient off street parking for residents.
