This is your chance to realize your dream home. Do you see the potential after reading the text below? Then roll up your sleeves and turn this home in sought-after Huizum-West into your “statement piece”. Welcome home and step inside this 1930s terraced house, where you will immediately experience positive energy and a warm atmosphere. The east-west orientation of the house, partly due to the large windows on the ground floor and the upper floor, is ideal for the natural light balance that is pleasant throughout the day and continuously provides the living spaces with a warm and sunny appearance. The living room, kitchen, bathroom, and toilet are located on the ground floor, while the upper floor houses 3 bedrooms and a walk-in closet. The sheltered backyard offers plenty of privacy, and thanks to its west-facing orientation, the sun shines in the garden from midday until late in the evening. It is the ideal place to relax or enjoy a long meal with friends. A huge plus is the roof, which was renewed and insulated in 2025. Because the rest of the house has various areas of overdue maintenance, you are investing directly in the value of the property. A smart renovation pays for itself many times over in the long run, especially when you opt for future-proof sustainability measures such as insulation, solar panels, and a heat pump. By focusing on energy conservation immediately, you not only lower your fixed costs but also instantly increase living comfort and the value of the home. Furthermore, this is your ultimate opportunity to make your dreams come true and create a home that perfectly suits your lifestyle.
