Exceptionally spacious and energy-efficient terraced house on navigable water with direct access to the River Zaan! Space, comfort and a beautiful waterside location come together perfectly in this attractive home. Considerable investments have been made in sustainability and modernisation in recent years, resulting in a contemporary home with an energy label A and the reassurance that many of the major improvements have already been taken care of. And to top it all off, you can step straight from your home onto the water, with a direct connection to the River Zaan. The substantial extension creates a surprisingly spacious living room with plenty of room for a large dining table and a comfortable seating area. It is a wonderful living space where you can easily gather with family and friends. The modern kitchen, installed in 2021, blends seamlessly into the living area and is fully equipped with various built-in appliances, including a boiling-water tap. The property also features a home battery system with a smart emergency power supply. In the event of a power outage, the kitchen can remain operational as long as sufficient energy is available in the battery. This means essential appliances can continue to function, helping to prevent, for example, the contents of the fridge and freezer from going to waste. Many of the appliances are also still covered by warranty. The first floor offers three comfortable bedrooms and a modern bathroom dating from 2020. Each of the rooms is a good size, making them ideal as bedrooms, children’s rooms or hobby rooms. The second floor is a real surprise. Thanks to dormer windows at both the front and rear, this level has been transformed into a fully functional additional floor, featuring a spacious bedroom as well as a wonderfully bright home office – ideal for anyone who regularly works from home. There is also a separate practical laundry room for the washing machine and dryer, keeping everything neatly out of sight while leaving plenty of additional storage space. When it comes to sustainability, this home is equally impressive. The property has an energy label A, uPVC window frames with predominantly HR++ double glazing, additional insulation to the façades and floors, thirteen solar panels combined with a 15 kWh home battery, and four air-conditioning units that can both heat and cool. In addition, the entire electrical installation has been renewed. This is a home that has benefited from considerable care and investment in recent years, allowing its new owners to simply move in and enjoy it for years to come. The location directly on navigable water makes this property particularly special. Step into your boat and cruise directly from your home onto the River Zaan. From there, an extensive network of waterways is yours to explore, including the Alkmaardermeer lake, the entire Zaan region and even Amsterdam. Do you own a larger boat? Westknollendam marina offers the perfect solution. With your mooring close to home, you can simply walk to your boat and head out onto the water whenever you like. Further investment in local infrastructure is also expected. Fibre-optic cables are anticipated to be installed this year, with residents being given the opportunity to connect their homes to the network. Enthusiastic about this property?
