LOPIKERWEG 1B, SCHOONHOVEN Detached family home with views, charm, and top comfort WORDS FROM THE SELLER During our first viewing of the house on Lopikerweg, we immediately felt like we were on vacation. As soon as we entered, we experienced the light, the relaxed atmosphere, and the stunning view. Although we have lived here happily for ten years, another special home unexpectedly crossed our path. This has led us to make the decision to sell our beloved home. In recent years, we have completely renovated our sunny south-facing garden and added new sheds. The covered seating area by the water has become the garden's crown jewel in our eyes. In summer, it's a cool spot under the sedum roof, and in the evening, you can light the stove for a bit of extra warmth. Two years ago, we renovated the upper floor and used custom designs to optimize every space. As a result, our bedrooms are now both practical and cozy. Living on the Lopikerweg has been ideal for us. Wonderful neighbors, a peaceful location, and still close to all amenities. Even at a young age, our children could safely and quickly cycle to primary school via the adjacent bike path. We hope the new owners will enjoy the house just as much as we have! DETACHED LIVING WITH VIEWS AND SPACE Lopikerweg 1b offers the ideal combination of rural charm and modern comfort. At the front, you enjoy expansive views over the countryside; at the back, the sunny south-facing garden borders water and an orchard. The house is situated on a quiet country lane with mainly local traffic – a true oasis of calm, just a short distance from schools, shops, and the charming center of Schoonhoven. The garden was completely redesigned in 2021 and radiates a year-round holiday vibe. With a piled terrace, wooden sheds, a luxury outdoor kitchen, and an atmospheric covered area with sedum roof and wood stove, it’s a joy in every season. Garden lighting has been pre-installed, and the bank reinforcement has been replaced with a hardwood retaining wall. Everything is just right. BRIGHT, LUXURIOUS AND PRACTICALLY LAID OUT The home has been carefully maintained and tastefully finished. On the ground floor, you'll find a hallway with tiled flooring and a modern toilet; the living room features an oak floor with underfloor heating, plastered walls, ceilings with decorative molding, and recessed lighting. The kitchen is a true eye-catcher, handcrafted from wood and equipped with a Quooker, high-pressure steam oven, combination oven, Boretti gas hob, extractor hood, fridge, freezer, and dishwasher. It also has a tiled floor with underfloor heating. From the kitchen, there is access to the terrace and the insulated, heated garage (40 m²) with electric door, underfloor heating, and access to the basement (13 m², standing height). The entire first floor was renovated in 2023: three bedrooms with custom wardrobes, sleek walls, new floors, air conditioning units, and modern finishes. The luxury bathroom (from 2015) features a bathtub, walk-in shower, wall-hung toilet, vanity unit, built-in lighting, and underfloor heating. The landing includes a Velux skylight and smart storage solutions. A pull-down ladder provides access to a practical attic for additional storage across the entire upper floor. IMPECCABLY MAINTAINED AND SUSTAINABLE This home is move-in ready, future-proof, and energy-efficient. With energy label A+, 24 solar panels (installed in 2023), an electric car charging station, and underfloor heating on the ground floor (pump and distributor renewed in 2022). The flat roof was fitted with new roofing in 2023. The gutters and downpipes are made of copper, and the garage can easily be converted into a workspace or extra bedroom with bathroom on the ground floor. This property offers ample space for a variety of family situations – whether you have growing children, an empty nest, or want a peaceful place to work from home.
