KEY FEATURES approximately 74 m² of living accommodation; approximately 6 m² of other internal space; plot of approximately 119 m²; gross internal volume approximately 285 m³; two bedrooms; multifunctional attic accessed by a fixed staircase; detached garage of approximately 23 m²; sheltered south-east facing rear garden; Vaillant ecoTEC plus central-heating boiler installed in 2025; energy label E; located within Eindhoven’s Ring Road; significant modernisation and improvement potential. Please note: according to the official measurement report, the approximately 6 m² attic area is classified as “other internal space” and is therefore not included within the advertised 74 m² living area. GROUND FLOOR The property is entered through the characterful divided front door into the hallway, which provides access to the meter cupboard and living room. The through-lounge benefits from generous windows to both the front and rear, allowing plenty of natural daylight into the room. There is ample space for both a comfortable sitting area and dining area. A practical storage cupboard provides additional storage and the staircase leads to the first floor. At the rear of the property is the separate kitchen. The kitchen is arranged along one wall and includes, amongst other appliances, a Bauknecht extractor hood, Atag four-burner gas hob and Indesit oven. French doors provide direct access to the rear garden. The bathroom is situated adjacent to the kitchen and is fully tiled. It includes a walk-in shower with rain shower and hand shower, washbasin unit, toilet, design radiator and connections for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The bathroom is provided with mechanical extraction as well as an opening window for natural ventilation. FIRST FLOOR The landing provides access to two bedrooms and a separate WC. Bedroom 1 is situated at the front of the house and benefits from a dormer window, heating and a fixed washbasin. Its proportions make it suitable as the principal bedroom. Bedroom 2 is situated at the rear and also includes heating and a fixed washbasin. There is also a separate WC on the landing, fitted with a macerator toilet and corner washbasin. The central-heating system is also located on this floor. In 2025, a new Vaillant ecoTEC plus CW4 combination boiler was installed, meaning an important part of the property's technical installation has recently been renewed. SECOND FLOOR A fixed staircase leads to the attic level. This open space benefits from two roof windows, heating and practical storage behind the eaves. With natural daylight and permanent staircase access, it can serve well as a home office, hobby room, guest room or additional sleeping area. According to the official measurement report, approximately 6 m² of this level is classified as other internal space and is therefore not included within the advertised 74 m² living area. GARDEN AND GARAGE The south-east facing rear garden provides a sheltered outdoor space in a particularly central urban location. It is predominantly paved and includes planted borders. A particularly valuable feature is the detached garage at the rear of the plot. Offering approximately 23 m² of external storage space, the garage provides ample room for a car, bicycles, tools and additional storage. It is equipped with electricity, a window and an electrically operated sectional garage door. EXCELLENT SCOPE TO ADD VALUE The property's present condition gives a new owner considerable opportunity to further modernise and improve the house. Potential improvements could include updating the kitchen and interior finishes, improving glazing and insulation, implementing further energy-efficiency measures and making optimal use of the attic level. The combination of freehold land, a substantial detached garage, permanent staircase access to the attic and the highly central location makes the property particularly interesting to buyers who are looking beyond its current condition and recognise its longer-term potential. Any alterations, extensions or changes of use are naturally subject to the property's structural characteristics, the applicable planning regulations and any required permits. ALSO INTERESTING FROM AN INVESTMENT PERSPECTIVE Its location within Eindhoven’s Ring Road may also appeal to buyers looking for real estate with longer-term optimisation potential. Eindhoven city centre, Central Station, TU/e, Fontys and a wide range of daily amenities are all within easy reach. The combination of a central location, freehold plot, separate garage and renovation potential creates several possible future scenarios. The property can of course be purchased for owner occupation and further modernisation. Depending on the intended use and applicable legislation, it may also be of interest from a longer-term investment perspective. Any rental or alternative investment use must be assessed separately against current municipal regulations, licensing requirements and financing conditions.
