Description
Characteristic, extra-wide 1930s corner house. What a space! The garage has been attached to the house, making it even wider. It offers a spacious living room with a bay window and en-suite doors, a modern kitchen with a cooking island, a utility room, a study, four bedrooms, a bathroom, and a sunny south-facing garden. Located in the popular and child-friendly Planetenbuurt, you’ll find a supermarket, childcare, trendy cafés, and several schools just around the corner. Shops, sports facilities, public transport and recreational areas are all in the vicinity.
This spacious home provides an abundance of room! Moreover, the house exudes a warm and welcoming atmosphere, partly thanks to the bay window, the beautiful stained-glass en-suite doors, and the French doors opening onto the large garden. You enter through the hall into the atmospheric living room. At the front is the bay window, while at the rear the living room is extra wide. There is ample space here for a large dining table, perfect for enjoying long meals with friends or family. In addition, there is a spacious, modern kitchen with a cooking island furnished with complete built-in appliances. The generous south-facing back garden features a wooden shed with a canopy and a rear entrance. On the ground floor, there is also a utility room and a room currently used as a workspace, which can equally well serve as a studio or extra bedroom. On the first floor you will find two spacious bedrooms – one of which has a walk-in closet – a separate toilet, and a bathroom with a walk-in shower, a bathtub, and a washbasin unit. In the attic there are two bedrooms with dormer windows and storage space. In short, it’s a delightful family home in a super fun location!
