- The first floor currently has only two bedrooms, with the master bedroom created by merging two original rooms, which may not suit all family configurations without renovation work.

- While the total plot is 260 square meters, the actual backyard is 95 square meters, with the remainder occupied by the front garden, driveway, and garage footprint.
Description
This semi-detached family home is located on Vrakkerstraat in the sought-after Boshoven neighborhood of Weert. The property was originally built in 1986 and has been carefully maintained and modernized over the years by the current owners. The result is a contemporary and fully move-in ready residence that combines comfortable living spaces with practical amenities.
The house is situated on a generous plot measuring 260 square meters. The front garden features a spacious driveway that provides convenient parking on the property. Mature plantings and greenery give the entrance an inviting and well-maintained appearance. From the front, residents enjoy an open view of greenery and surrounding gardens, contributing to a pleasant sense of space and freedom.
Upon entering the home, visitors are welcomed into a hall that includes a wardrobe area, a modern meter cupboard, and the staircase leading to the upper floors. A stylishly finished guest toilet room is also located on the ground floor, equipped with a wall-mounted toilet and a small washbasin.
The through-living room is positioned at the rear of the ground floor and benefits from abundant natural light. The room is finished with smooth plastered walls and a warm tiled floor in a wood-look herringbone pattern. A fireplace serves as a focal point in the seating area, adding warmth and character to the space. French doors open directly onto the backyard, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. A practical recessed pantry is integrated into the living room for additional storage.
A notable extension has been added to the property, housing a spacious eat-in kitchen. The kitchen is arranged in a U-shaped layout with a modern country-style aesthetic. It is fully equipped with a five-burner gas hob, an extractor hood, a combination oven and microwave, a refrigerator, and a dishwasher. A granite worktop provides a durable and attractive food preparation surface. The kitchen floor features underfloor heating for added comfort, and an air conditioning unit with a heating function ensures a pleasant indoor climate throughout the year.
The first floor contains two bedrooms and a complete bathroom. The master bedroom was created by combining two original bedrooms into one generous space. Should future owners prefer, this room can be restored to its original configuration as two separate bedrooms. The second bedroom on this floor is well-suited for use as a child's room, home office, or dressing room. Both bedrooms feature laminate flooring and synthetic window frames with HR++ glazing for energy efficiency.
The bathroom on the first floor is fully tiled in a modern color scheme and includes a shower, a vanity unit with a double sink, and a wall-mounted toilet. Underfloor heating and a designer radiator contribute to comfort in this space.
A fixed staircase leads to the second floor, which offers additional living space. This level includes a landing area housing the central heating boiler and providing extra storage. Adjacent to this is a spacious multifunctional room that can serve as an additional bedroom, home office, or hobby area.
The backyard measures 95 square meters and is oriented to the southwest, benefiting from afternoon and evening sunlight. The garden is fully enclosed and landscaped with mature greenery that provides a good degree of privacy. A large covered patio or overkapping allows residents to enjoy outdoor living even during less favorable weather conditions or earlier in the season.
An integrated garage is accessible directly from the interior of the home. This space can accommodate one vehicle and offers additional storage options for bicycles, garden equipment, or other items. Combined with the private driveway, the property provides ample parking facilities.
The property holds an energy label A rating, reflecting its good insulation standards. Insulation has been applied to the roof, walls, and floor, and the windows feature HR++ glazing. The heating system consists of a Nefit Excellent HR gas-fired combination boiler that was installed in 2003.
The Boshoven neighborhood is characterized by a peaceful residential atmosphere while maintaining convenient access to daily amenities. Schools, sports facilities, shops, and the center of Weert are all within easy reach. The A2 motorway can be accessed within minutes, providing efficient connections to Eindhoven, Veldhoven, and other destinations in the region.
The total living area of the property is 121 square meters, with an additional 17 square meters of indoor space in the garage and other areas. The property has a volume of 486 cubic meters. Features include mechanical ventilation, fiberglass internet cabling, TV cabling, and roller shutters on some windows.
