Unique and Charming Corner House with Garage (Total 157m2) by the Water. Peaceful yet Central Location, Walking Distance to the Grote Markt and Close to the Dunes!

The front room is also perfect as a study or home office. The large living room is beautifully bright due to its two sliding doors. Adjacent to the living room, you’ll find a spacious kitchen and a sunny garden room, both with underfloor heating. The sheltered, green, and sunny garden can be accessed from the living room, garden room, and kitchen. Here, you can enjoy peace, quiet, and privacy all day, well into the evening. A staircase leads to the first floor, where there are three bedrooms, a separate toilet, and a generously sized bathroom. The spacious bedrooms at both the front and back have built-in wardrobes. There’s also the potential to create more living space by adding a storey (subject to permit). Additionally, there’s the possibility of building a fantastic balcony/roof terrace (also subject to permit). By 4 p.m., you can enjoy the sun with a view of the canal, perfect for Friday evening drinks! The spacious attached garage, which can serve various purposes, completes the picture. Currently used for one car, it also has space for a charging point, bicycles, and a cargo bike, ideal for families. The garage could also be transformed into a hobby room, studio, or even an extension of the living space (subject to planning permission).
