Texelstraat 471506 ZC ZaandamSchilders- en Waddenbuurt

This charming corner house, built in 1939, perfectly combines character with modern comfort. While the exterior showcases its original charm, the interior has been completely renovated to meet today's living standards. The property features two dormer windows, three (with the possibility of four) bedrooms, and a stunning bathroom with an extra-large walk-in shower. The living room, with French doors opening onto the garden, flows seamlessly into the semi-open kitchen, which is fully equipped. Outside, you'll find a unique double south-facing garden with rear access and a detached storage shed for bicycles. This move-in-ready home is very likely to tick all the boxes on your wish list. The property is located in the Waddenbuurt district of Zaandam, a charming residential neighbourhood named after the Dutch Wadden Islands. Developed during the period when the Zaan region experienced rapid industrial growth, the area is known for its spacious layout, attractive pre-war homes, tree-lined streets, and green surroundings. It is a peaceful, family-friendly neighbourhood where neighbours still know each other, while all daily amenities are close at hand. Supermarkets, schools, shops, sports facilities, and the vibrant centre of Zaandam are all within easy reach. Both Koog aan de Zaan Station and Zaandam Station are nearby, providing a direct train connection to Amsterdam Central Station in approximately 15 minutes. Haarlem, Alkmaar, and the major motorway network are also easily accessible. Layout: Ground floor: The attractive appearance of this home continues inside. The entrance hall features a stylish herringbone PVC floor, which continues throughout the living room and kitchen. Practical built-in storage cupboards are located beneath the staircase, while at the end of the hall you'll find a spacious and elegant toilet. Measuring approximately 7.70 metres in length, the living room offers generous living space. At the front, the bay window with its deep windowsill provides the perfect place for plants and decorative accessories, creating a warm and inviting seating area. At the rear, the dining area enjoys direct access to the garden through double French doors. The semi-open kitchen is separated from the living room by a half-height wall and is fitted with a light-coloured corner unit. Additional cabinets with a worktop facing the living room provide extra storage and create the ideal spot for a coffee station. The concrete-look countertop complements the contemporary design perfectly. Built-in appliances include a five-burner gas hob, extractor hood, combination oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, and freezer. First floor: At the front of the property is the spacious L-shaped master bedroom, featuring a practical alcove that could easily serve as a home office or dressing area. The generously sized second bedroom overlooks the sunny south-facing garden. Both rooms are finished with laminate flooring and decorated in light, neutral colours. The bathroom is beautifully finished with warm-toned tiles and stylish sanitary fittings. It includes an extra-large walk-in shower with a glass screen, a wall-mounted toilet, and a modern vanity unit topped with a large illuminated round mirror. Second floor: Thanks to the dormer windows at both the front and rear, this floor offers an impressive amount of additional living space. It is accessed via a fixed staircase. The landing provides space for the washing machine and dryer, while the central heating boiler is also located here. The spacious bedroom on this floor benefits from natural light on two sides and features laminate flooring. Due to its generous size, this room can easily be divided into two separate children's bedrooms if desired. Garden: The south-facing rear garden is divided into two sections, both of which are fully paved for low-maintenance outdoor living. The fencing surrounding the first section has recently been renewed. Across the alley is the second part of the garden, where you'll find a detached wooden bicycle storage shed. This section also has a gate leading directly to Terschellingstraat, where public parking and a children's playground are located.
