Charming ground-Floor apartment with sunny garden in the Schinkelbuurt
First-time buyers, take note! Located in the highly sought-after Schinkelbuurt, this charming ground-floor apartment comes with a spacious, sunny south-facing garden. This is one of those homes where you instantly feel at ease: bright, well laid out, and with a garden you’ll fall in love with right away. The property is situated on freehold land (no leasehold).
You enter the apartment through your own private entrance into the hallway, where the space has been used cleverly. There is a washing machine setup neatly tucked under the stairs and a generous wardrobe area for coats, shoes, bags, and more. The bathroom is simple yet functional, fitted with a shower and washbasin, while the toilet is separate.
The spacious and inviting bedroom is located at the front of the property and features a custom-made wardrobe. Beautiful stained-glass upper windows add extra character and atmosphere to this room.
The living/dining room is the heart of the home and connects directly to the covered terrace and garden through French doors. Indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly here. The compact but well-designed kitchen is equipped with a Boretti gas stove with six burners and a large oven — making cooking a real pleasure. The solid wooden floor adds warmth and elegance throughout.
And then there’s the garden… ??
At approximately 35 m², south-facing and beautifully landscaped, it’s large enough for both a generous dining table and a comfortable lounge set. From quiet coffee moments in the sun to long summer evenings with friends, this garden truly feels like an extension of the living space. There may be potential to create an extension between the kitchen and dining area; please consult the municipality to investigate the possibilities and any permit requirements. A fantastic opportunity to realise a spacious eat-in kitchen and an additional bedroom in the location of the current living room.
The homeowners’ association (VvE) consists of four members and is self-managed. Annual meetings are held and communication between members is good. The monthly service charges are €75.
