Description
This atmospheric end terrace house is situated on the friendly Zaandammerstraat in the town of Wormer. Dating back to 1930, this characteristic residence offers a surprising amount of outdoor space and presents ample opportunities for a new owner to modernize the interior to their own specific taste. The property encompasses approximately 89 square meters of living space, featuring three bedrooms, a detached storage shed, and a notably deep backyard measuring 22 meters in depth, facing west.
The home is positioned in a pleasant residential neighborhood where daily amenities are within easy reach. Residents will find the shopping center Plaszoom, various schools, a bus stop, and sports accommodations such as Zwembad het Zwet just a short distance away. Additionally, the location provides convenient access to main roads and motorways for commuting. Because the property is an end house, it benefits from extra privacy and a favorable incidence of natural light within the rooms.
The layout of the ground floor is practical and serves as an excellent foundation for creating a contemporary living environment. Upon entering, one finds a hall with access to a toilet and the living room. The current arrangement offers an ideal starting point for the development of a modern, open plan kitchen and a comfortable living area. Large windows at the rear of the house ensure a visual connection with the garden, bringing the outdoors in. From the living space, one can step directly into the generous backyard.
The outdoor area is a significant asset of this property. The backyard is approximately 117 square meters in size and has a depth of 22 meters with a width of 5.30 meters. Being situated on the west, the garden is a true sun trap where residents can enjoy the sun virtually the entire afternoon and evening. This makes it the perfect spot for dining outdoors or relaxing after work. The garden is accessible via a back entrance, adding to the convenience of the layout. Within the garden grounds, there is a detached wooden shed which is equipped with electricity, providing useful storage space for gardening tools or bicycles.
The upper floors of the house accommodate the sleeping quarters. There are three bedrooms in total, offering sufficient space for a family or a home office setup. The bathroom is located on this floor as well and is fitted with a shower, a washbasin, and a connection for a washing machine. This setup covers the basic needs efficiently while leaving room for cosmetic updates if desired.
Technically, the house is in a state that reflects its age and offers a project for those willing to invest. The property has an energy label F. It is partially equipped with double glazing and has floor insulation, which forms a basis for further energy efficiency improvements. The heating is provided by a hot air heating system, and hot water is generated via an electric boiler. These installations are functional but will likely require attention or replacement to meet modern standards of comfort and efficiency.
The total plot area covers 215 square meters, providing ample space around the house. The volume of the house is 315 cubic meters. The roof is a hipped roof covered with tiles, typical for the era of construction. The ownership situation is full property rights, and the acceptance of the transfer is in consultation. This residence is particularly suited for buyers who are looking for a home with character, potential, and a generous garden on a fine location in Wormer.
