Aresstraat 391363 VJ AlmereHomeruskwartier Midden

Van de Steege Makelaars Almere offers this property with a "starting bid" price. The Homeruskwartier is a unique residential district, known in part for its diverse architecture. Situated along the city canal, this spectacular villa offers a living area of no less than 205 m². The property features 6 bedrooms, 3 recently renovated bathrooms, a home office with its own private entrance, and an exceptionally spacious living area. In addition to a south-facing garden, there is a terrace overlooking the canal and a large rooftop terrace, providing stunning views across the Homeruskwartier. This villa (known as the Steensel/Stricker House) is an exceptionally spacious family home on a plot measuring 13 x 12 meters, beautifully located by the water. Its architecture consists of interconnected volumes of increasing heights, built tightly along the property boundary to maximize space on the street side. At the rear, the façade extends continuously across the entire width of the house, featuring French doors, a cantilevered balcony, and several large bedroom windows. Subtly integrated rainwater downpipes act as a frame, emphasizing the home's refined design. Originally, the house was intended to be delivered in fire-engine red, but a fresh yellow color was ultimately chosen instead—a colorful exception within the neighborhood. Layout Ground Floor Whether you park your car on the private driveway or your bicycle under the covered area, you enter this remarkable villa through the front garden. In addition to the kitchen entrance, both the kitchen and the home office have separate exterior doors at the front of the property. The spacious entrance hall features a light-colored tiled floor with underfloor heating, which extends throughout most of the ground floor. The staircase is located on the left-hand side, while the recently renovated guest toilet and utility meter cupboard are situated on the right. The living room and kitchen-dining area combine to create an exceptionally large living space. At the rear is the sitting area, with double doors opening onto the terrace above the water. The views of the greenery and striking architecture make this a truly outstanding living room. A separate room—ideal as a children's playroom, among other uses—and the media wall with fireplace provide an attractive division between the sitting area and the kitchen-dining space. The kitchen-dining area currently accommodates a four-person dining table, although a larger table could easily fit. Large windows flood the space with natural light, enhancing its spacious feel. The recently renovated black corner kitchen features a marble-look countertop and includes built-in appliances such as an induction cooktop, extractor hood, oven, and dishwasher. The freestanding black refrigerator-freezer combination and microwave are also included. Also located on the ground floor are a home office, a bedroom, and a bathroom. The bedroom is positioned at the rear and features a French balcony and a floor-to-ceiling window. The recently renovated bathroom is fitted with a walk-in shower and a vanity unit. First Floor The landing, complete with a French balcony, serves as the central hub of the first floor. From here, there is access to four bedrooms and a spacious bathroom. This bathroom, finished with marble-look wall tiles and wood-look floor tiles, includes a bathtub, walk-in shower, toilet, and vanity unit. All bedrooms face the rear of the property, offering views of the water and surrounding greenery. The wallpaper in most rooms reflects their use as children's bedrooms, with the exception of the room on the left side. Nearly the entire floor is finished with click vinyl flooring, and the overall condition is excellent. Second Floor At the top of the stairs is a landing with a French balcony and attractive views of the surrounding neighborhood. This floor contains a storage/laundry room, the master bedroom with access to the rooftop terrace, and the third bathroom. Warm brown tones create an inviting atmosphere in the air-conditioned master bedroom. The bathroom on this floor is fitted with a walk-in shower, wall-mounted toilet, and double vanity unit. Terraces and Garden With a south-facing rooftop terrace on the second floor, a north-facing terrace above the water, and a south-facing garden, there is always a pleasant outdoor space to enjoy. The waterside terrace has recently been renovated, ensuring many years of enjoyment to come. Location Just around the corner is the Homerusmarkt, a shopping center with a supermarket and various retail stores. Homerus Park is within walking distance, and the train station can be reached within minutes by bicycle. Both primary and secondary schools are nearby, as are beautiful natural areas. Will you choose the beach or the Pampushout recreational area? Both are within walking distance. Via the A6 motorway, Amsterdam's A10 Ring Road is approximately 20 kilometers away. The Gooi region, Utrecht, and the rest of Flevoland are also easily accessible. Prefer traveling by train?
