Oosteinde 511483 AC De RijpDe Rijp

Living with character, comfort, and waterways right on your doorstep, all right in the heart of historic De Rijp. Located on the atmospheric Oosteinde, amidst the characteristic facades of the old town center, stands this charming semi-detached house from 1895. A home where history and contemporary living comfort come together, with the added bonus of waterways just a few steps away. You enter the home via the entrance featuring a hall, staircase, and separate toilet. The spacious living room welcomes you with pleasant natural light and a warm, well-maintained finish. The herringbone PVC floor with border and edging, combined with sleek plastered walls and ceilings, gives the whole space a stylish and contemporary look. The open kitchen seamlessly connects to this and is finished in neutral tones, equipped with all modern luxury built-in appliances. A pleasant living space where cooking and socializing naturally come together. Adjacent is the practical utility room with space for the central heating system, pantry cupboards, and a washing machine and dryer. On the upper floor, you will find a spacious landing with access to three bedrooms and the bathroom. The master bedroom at the front lives up to its name: generously sized, wonderfully bright, and featuring a French balcony overlooking the entrance to De Rijp (the Beemster Bridge), the Beemster ring canal, and the vast meadows of the Beemster World Heritage Site. An additional skylight provides even more natural light. The second bedroom features a playful raised floor with practical drawers underneath, ideal for extra storage space, and also a large skylight. The original flooring is still present, so if you wish to remove the raised section, this can be done without any problems. The third room, equipped with a dormer window, is perfectly suitable as a home office or study, although working from home is also perfectly possible in the spacious master bedroom. The bathroom is fully equipped with a bathtub, walk-in shower, toilet, vanity unit, and a large skylight that provides natural light and ventilation. Additionally, there is a storage attic spanning the full length of the house (approximately 11.50 meters), accessible via a loft ladder, featuring a skylight for natural daylight, ideal for storing (seasonal) items. The front garden faces southwest, allowing you to fully enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. It is a lovely spot to sit outside after a long day. The car can drive right up to the front garden, making unloading groceries particularly practical. Parking is available in the immediate vicinity, where there is ample space. The waterway is located just about 10 meters away: you can moor your boat here free of charge and step aboard directly from your front garden. From here, you can sail towards Alkmaar, Purmerend, or even Amsterdam, or discover the beautiful Natura 2000 area of ??the Eilandspolder while sailing. The location right in the historic center of De Rijp completes the picture. You live here among monumental buildings (the house itself is not a monument), with shops, restaurants, schools, and sports clubs within walking distance. De Rijp is known as a lively village with a rich history and a close-knit community. At the same time, cities like Alkmaar and Purmerend are easily accessible, Amsterdam is about 25 kilometers away, and you can reach the beach within half an hour. This home is particularly suitable for first-time buyers, those looking to start over, or families who want to live in a rural setting in a village where people still know and greet each other. This is also an attractive opportunity for those seeking a second home without major garden maintenance.
