Apollo 913769 TB SoesterbergSoesterberg Oost

Spacious corner house with garage on a generous plot, directly bordering the forest Located in the former American residential area Apollo in Soesterberg, this fantastic and generously sized corner house offers just under 200 m² of living space. The historic Apollo neighborhood was developed in the 1970s for American military personnel stationed at Soesterberg Air Base. The homes were built according to American standards with a distinct Dutch touch. The properties are fully constructed in concrete and feature various American-style elements, such as ample internal storage space, a utility room, and in many cases a carport designed for larger vehicles. After the departure of the Americans in the 1990s, the homes were sold to private owners. In many parts of the neighborhood, the first Dutch residents who received their keys around 1994 still live here today. Since the air base closed in 2008, the surrounding 375-hectare area has been transformed into a beautiful nature reserve. You can cycle over the former runway and easily reach nearby villages and the Nationaal Militair Museum. The charming village center of Soesterberg offers all daily amenities, including a supermarket, drugstore, and a variety of restaurants and cafés. The green surroundings also provide numerous cycling and walking routes. Accessibility is excellent. With direct connections to major roads and highways, you can reach Utrecht, Amersfoort, and Zeist within approximately 15 minutes. The Utrecht Science Park is also easily accessible. This unique home has been extensively extended and modernized over the years. The rear has been enlarged, the former carport has been converted into an attached garage, and an additional full floor has been added. As a result, the property now offers no fewer than six generously sized bedrooms. Combined with the spacious plot and its quiet, low-traffic location next to the forest, this makes it an ideal family home for those seeking space, greenery, and tranquility. Layout Ground floor Park your car in the garage or in one of the nearby public parking spaces and enter the home through the hallway, which features a meter cupboard, staircase, and a toilet with washbasin. From the hallway, you have access to the living and dining area. The spacious, extended living room of approximately 56 m² forms the heart of the home. Three large skylights provide abundant natural light, creating a bright and pleasant atmosphere. The generous layout allows for multiple living areas, whether you prefer a cozy seating area by the fireplace or a large dining space for entertaining guests. At the rear, a large sliding door seamlessly connects the indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing you to fully enjoy the garden from inside. The modern kitchen is fully equipped and features a stylish kitchen island with induction hob, double sink, two ovens, dishwasher, and a fridge-freezer combination. From the kitchen, you access the practical utility room, which includes connections for laundry appliances and access to the garage. The garage, formerly a carport, offers space for a car, motorcycle, bicycles, and additional storage. First floor The staircase leads to the landing, which provides access to all rooms on this floor.

The largest bedroom, approximately 18 m², offers beautiful views of the surrounding greenery, where you can regularly spot squirrels moving through the trees.
