Key Features
Description
This property is located at Zeeweg 37-B in the De Noord area of Huizen, a charming semi-detached home situated in a small courtyard setting that is shared with a few neighboring properties. Originally constructed around 1950, this residence has undergone a comprehensive renovation and modernization process completed in 2024 and 2025, resulting in a fully updated turn-key home that requires no additional work from the new owner. In fact, the listing notes that the new owner does not even need to paint, as all finishing work has been completed to a high standard. The asking price is set at 475,000 euros, with the transaction to be handled on a costs koper basis, meaning the buyer will be responsible for the associated transfer costs including notary fees and property transfer tax.
The renovation work carried out has been extensive, encompassing all essential systems and finishes throughout the property. Every pipe, both supply and drainage lines, has been replaced with new installations. The electrical system has been completely renewed to current standards. All sanitary fixtures including toilets, the kitchen, and the bathroom are brand new, making the purchaser the very first user of these facilities since their installation. The floors, facades, roof, and glazing have all been upgraded with high-quality insulation materials, which has earned the property an Energy Label A rating. This is a significant achievement for a property originally built in 1950 and demonstrates the thoroughness of the renovation work. This level of insulation, combined with the modern heating system, ensures lower energy costs compared to older properties of similar construction that have not been updated.
The living space measures 85.40 square meters in total, with the property having a volume of 306 cubic meters according to the official measurements. The plot covers 99 square meters, providing a modest but functional outdoor space. There is also an external storage building providing an additional 4 square meters of space for garden equipment, bicycles, or other items that need to be stored separately from the main living areas. The asking price translates to approximately 5,588 euros per square meter of living area, which provides a useful benchmark for comparing this property to others in the local market.
The ground floor layout begins with an entrance leading into a hallway that provides access to the meter cupboard and a luxury toilet room fitted with a small sink or fountain fixture. This toilet room has been fully updated as part of the renovation. The main living and dining area is spacious and benefits from an abundance of natural light, achieved through a large glass door at the front of the property and additional side windows that work together to illuminate the space throughout the day. French balcony doors provide access to the outdoors while maintaining the bright and airy atmosphere that characterizes this room. The modern kitchen is well-equipped with essential appliances including a combined refrigerator and freezer unit, an induction cooking hob that provides efficient and responsive heat control, and a dishwasher for convenient cleanup. From the ground floor, a staircase leads down to the souterrain level where the bedrooms and main bathroom are located.
The souterrain level contains its own hallway with a second luxury toilet, providing convenience for occupants using the bedrooms on this level. There is also a heating and storage room that houses the boiler installation and provides additional storage capacity for household items. The first bedroom on this level features a large glass door with French doors opening to the outside area, allowing plenty of daylight to enter the room and providing direct access to the outdoor space. The second bedroom is similarly configured with a large glass door and French doors to the exterior, ensuring both bedrooms benefit from the same level of natural illumination and access to outdoor space. This is an unusual and attractive feature for basement bedrooms, which often suffer from limited natural light. The luxury bathroom on this level includes a shower area, a double sink vanity unit, and connections for washing appliances, providing all the necessary facilities for modern living on a single floor.
Heating throughout the property is provided by comfortable underfloor heating powered by an Intergas HRE gas-fired combination boiler that was installed in 2024. This boiler is owned outright and will transfer with the property to the new owner. Underfloor heating provides even heat distribution throughout the rooms and eliminates the need for radiators, which can free up wall space and create a cleaner aesthetic. The property also features mechanical ventilation to ensure good air quality throughout the living spaces, an important consideration in well-insulated modern homes. Additional amenities include fiber optic cable connectivity for high-speed internet and TV cable connections, making the home ready for modern communication and entertainment needs from day one.
The exterior of the property includes a front garden measuring 12 square meters, with dimensions of 2.00 meters in depth and 6.00 meters in width. This garden faces north, which means it will receive different light patterns compared to south-facing gardens but can still provide a pleasant outdoor space for relaxation or gardening. The property also has a freestanding wooden shed that provides useful storage space and is equipped with electricity for lighting or power tools, though the shed itself is not insulated. A French balcony is present on the property, providing an additional outdoor element that allows occupants to enjoy fresh air without leaving the upper level of the home.
One of the notable features of this property is the dedicated parking space that comes with each residence in the courtyard, located along the Zeeweg. In many Dutch residential areas, finding parking can be a significant challenge, so having a guaranteed parking space is a valuable asset. Additionally, there is currently one extra parking space available, and interested buyers are encouraged to inquire about the possibility of purchasing this additional space at an asking price of 15,000 euros, which could be beneficial for households with multiple vehicles.
The location of this property offers several advantages for daily living. It is situated in the old village center of Huizen, placing it within walking distance of local shops for daily necessities, reducing the need for car trips for routine errands. The surrounding area includes the Goois Natuurreservaat, a nature reserve offering forests and heathland for outdoor recreation and relaxation, providing opportunities for walking, cycling, and enjoying nature. Public transportation is accessible via a nearby bus stop, and the area is well-served by schools and sports facilities, making it potentially suitable for families. For commuters, the A1 motorway providing connections to both Amsterdam and Utrecht is just a few minutes drive away, making this location practical for those working in either of these major cities or the areas between them.
The property transfer must be conducted through Moulijn Netwerk Notarissen, located at Naarderstraat 3 in Huizen, with contact number 035-5248989. The listing is presented by Floberg Makelaardij, who notes that all their clients are assisted by fully certified and experienced Register Makelaars, emphasizing their commitment to quality service delivery in the real estate transaction process.
The acceptance terms for this property are described as in overleg, meaning the exact date of transfer can be negotiated between buyer and seller to accommodate both parties' needs. The property is currently available on the market and is listed as a semi-detached home, specifically categorized as a hofjeswoning or courtyard house, which refers to the traditional Dutch housing style where homes are arranged around a shared courtyard space. The roof is a flat construction covered with synthetic material, a common choice for this type of property that provides durable weather protection with minimal maintenance requirements.
This property represents an opportunity to acquire a fully renovated home in a convenient location that combines village character with modern amenities and good accessibility to larger urban centers. The comprehensive renovation ensures that the new owner will not face any immediate maintenance or update requirements, making this a truly move-in ready residence. The combination of energy efficiency achieved through the A label rating, modern fittings throughout, parking provision, and location near both natural areas and transportation links makes this a property that should appeal to a range of potential buyers looking for a low-maintenance home in the Huizen area.
