Características clave
Descripción
Este apartamento de tres habitaciones está situado en la segunda planta de un antiguo edificio escolar municipal reconvertido en la ciudad de Hoorn. La propiedad cuenta con un balcón soleado, un garaje privado y un aparcamiento adicional situado directamente frente al garaje. El edificio tiene el estatus de monumento municipal, y durante la completa renovación finalizada en 2013, se tuvo especial cuidado en preservar los elementos históricos y los detalles arquitectónicos que dan al edificio su carácter distintivo.
El apartamento ofrece una abundancia de luz natural en todo su interior, con agradables vistas desde cada ventana. El interior cuenta con puertas anchas y una distribución práctica que contribuye a una experiencia de vida espaciosa y cómoda. El centro de la ciudad, la estación de tren y el popular mercado de los sábados se encuentran a una cómoda distancia a pie, lo que convierte a esta en una ubicación muy conveniente para la vida diaria.
Al entrar al edificio a través de la entrada compartida, los residentes y visitantes se quedan inmediatamente impresionados por la arquitectura impresionante. El techo alto y los elementos abovedados conservados crean una primera impresión grandiosa. Esta zona común alberga los armarios de contadores individuales y las unidades de almacenamiento privadas, cada una equipada con iluminación y una doble toma de corriente. Las unidades de almacenamiento también cuentan con techos excepcionalmente altos, maximizando su utilidad. Desde este pasillo, hay una puerta trasera que proporciona acceso directo a la zona de aparcamiento y los garajes. Los residentes tienen la comodidad de elegir entre la escalera o el ascensor para llegar a su apartamento.
Detrás de la puerta principal del apartamento, un pasillo ancho proporciona acceso a todas las habitaciones a través de puertas de proporciones generosas. Los suelos de todo el apartamento están cubiertos con laminado sobre subfondos de madera y aislamiento acústico. Las paredes están terminadas con cuidado con yeso liso. Ubicado en el pasillo se encuentra el espacioso aseo, que cuenta con paredes parcialmente alicatadas, un inodoro suspendido, un pequeño lavabo y un sistema de extracción central.
Se accede al salón a través de una alta puerta moderna de cristal. Esta sala acogedora y espaciosa cuenta con un techo alto con las vigas históricas originales del techo visibles sobre la cabeza, creando una atmósfera única que combina el carácter histórico con el confort moderno. Las paredes están enlucidas suavemente y el suelo laminado claro continúa desde el pasillo. La sala se beneficia de una excelente luz natural y agradables vistas. Varias ventanas están equipadas con mosquiteras y se pueden abrir. Para una ventilación continua, hay una rejilla de ventilación y un suskast (un tipo de elemento de ventilación pasiva). Las ventanas y la puerta que da al balcón están equipadas con cristal HR++ para una eficiencia energética óptima.
El balcón se describe como acogedor y cuenta con una barandilla de cristal con pasamanos de acero y un suelo hecho de tablas de madera dura. Este espacio exterior está orientado para captar el sol de la tarde y de la noche, ofreciendo a los residentes la oportunidad de disfrutar de hermosas puestas de sol. El balcón proporciona una agradable zona exterior privada dentro del entorno urbano.
La cocina moderna está dispuesta en una distribución en esquina y terminada en una esquema de colores claros. Cuenta con una encimera de piedra natural que se extiende hacia un área de trabajo adicional. La cocina ofrece amplio espacio de almacenamiento gracias a numerosos cajones, cajones integrados para cubiertos y un armario giratorio. La cocina está equipada con varios electrodomésticos integrados, incluyendo un lavavajillas instalado a una altura elevada para un uso ergonómico, un microondas combinado, una combinación frigorífico-congelador, una placa de inducción y una campana extractora de pantalla plana.
Una sala de lavado separada proporciona espacio para una lavadora y una secadora, junto con almacenamiento adicional para productos de limpieza. Esta sala también alberga la caldera de calefacción central, el sistema de ventilación mecánica y el cuadro principal de distribución eléctrica.
El primer dormitorio cuenta con paredes con papel pintado de líneas rectas y un patrón de buen gusto. La ventana ofrece una vista sobre el canal de agua Draafsingel e incluye una rejilla de ventilación para la circulación natural del aire. Un armario de esquina que encaja bien en el espacio está disponible para su transferencia al nuevo propietario.
El segundo dormitorio se describe como una habitación lúdica con un techo alto y una acogedora zona de esquina. Tiene una gran sección de ventana donde las dos ventanas superiores se pueden abrir y están equipadas con mosquiteras. Un suskast proporciona ventilación continua en esta habitación también.
El baño es espacioso y cuenta con paredes alicatadas en tonos claros que contrastan con los azulejos del suelo más oscuros. Un radiador de diseño sirve tanto para calentar la habitación como para calentar y secar toallas. El baño incluye un amplio mueble de baño con dos lavabos, cajones anchos y un armario espejo con iluminación integrada y una toma de corriente. La zona de ducha está equipada con un grifo termostático mezclador, y la extracción central ayuda a mantener la calidad del aire.
Una ventaja significativa de esta propiedad es el garaje privado, que tiene casi cuatro metros de ancho. Esta generosa anchura permite a los residentes aparcar su coche mientras aún tienen espacio para bicicletas junto al vehículo. El garaje está equipado con una puerta seccional aislada y de funcionamiento eléctrico, iluminación y tomas de corriente. Esta configuración es particularmente conveniente para los propietarios de vehículos eléctricos que puedan necesitar cargar su coche en casa. Además del garaje, hay una plaza de aparcamiento privada separada situada directamente frente al garaje, proporcionando aparcamiento conveniente para un segundo vehículo o para invitados.
El edificio fue construido originalmente en 1915 como una escuela municipal. En 2013, el estudio de arquitectura Rietvink Architecten fue encargado de diseñar la conversión en apartamentos con garajes, y los trabajos de construcción fueron realizados por De Wit Aannemingsbedrijf. La renovación fue guiada por el principio de preservar los aspectos monumentales mientras se incorporaban el confort y la conveniencia contemporáneos.
El apartamento es accesible para sillas de ruedas debido a las puertas anchas en toda la propiedad. La construcción del suelo consiste en un suelo de madera con elementos Fermacell aislantes acústicos y resistentes al fuego. Se permite el suelo duro en el apartamento, siempre que se instale sin fijarlo a las paredes. Esta restricción existe porque varias tuberías y conductos se encuentran dentro de la estructura del suelo, y no está permitido perforar, clavar o atornillar en el suelo. Se permiten mascotas en la propiedad. La limpieza de ventanas está incluida en los servicios de la comunidad de propietarios.
La comunidad de propietarios, conocida como VvE De Singel, está debidamente organizada con registro en la Cámara de Comercio. La asociación celebra reuniones anuales, recauda contribuciones periódicas, mantiene un fondo de reserva, tiene un plan de mantenimiento en vigor y ha contratado un seguro de edificio. La cuota mensual de la VvE es de 326,19 euros.
La propiedad tiene una superficie habitable total de 94 metros cuadrados, con 2 metros cuadrados de otro espacio interior y 6 metros cuadrados de espacio exterior vinculado al edificio (el balcón). Hay una unidad de almacenamiento externo de 23 metros cuadrados. El volumen total del apartamento es de 260 metros cúbicos. La propiedad está completamente aislada y cuenta con sistemas de ventilación tanto mecánicos como naturales. La calefacción y el agua caliente son proporcionadas por una caldera de gas combinada Intergas HRE de 2014, que es propiedad del actual propietario. La propiedad está inscrita en el registro de la propiedad bajo Hoorn D 7628 con estado de plena propiedad.
