THIS HOUSE IN A NUTSHELL
This spacious semi-detached house lies in a quiet and child-friendly residential area of Panningen. It was largely renovated and modernized in 2018. As soon as you step inside, you feel the pleasant atmosphere and care with which the home has been maintained. The light and generous living room forms together with the open kitchen the heart of the house, a lovely place where cooking, eating, and cozy socializing effortlessly blend into one another. The contemporary and practical kitchen is equipped with ample workspace and offers views of the garden. Adjacent to this is a utility room/pantry that is ideal for extra storage or placing appliances. From here you can reach an additional room in the former garage which currently serves as a man cave. Thanks to its own entrance via the pantry, however, this space also perfectly suits use as a home office or practice space, or perhaps as a playroom for children. On the first floor are three nicely sized bedrooms and a modern bathroom (renovated in 2018) with a spacious shower, sleek finish, and fresh look. The attic is accessible via a fixed staircase and offers ample possibilities to create an extra bedroom, possibly with a dormer window for even more light and space. The back garden is cozy and low-maintenance, featuring artificial grass and a large covered terrace where you can enjoy outdoor living all year round. At the rear, there's also a handy storage area and shed for bicycles or gardening tools. With 14 solar panels on the roof, this home is not only comfortable but also energy-efficient, which is great for both the environment and monthly expenses.
A FIRST IMPRESSION
This property is located in a quiet and beloved residential area of Panningen where living is pleasant and cozy.

What makes this location extra attractive is its excellent proximity to all amenities. You can easily walk or cycle to the center of Panningen where you can do your daily shopping at the supermarket but also enjoy cozy shops, restaurants, and terraces. Even the cinema, primary school, and secondary school are within walking distance, so everything you need is right at hand.
LET'S START ON THE GROUND FLOOR
WHEN YOU COME IN
Via the driveway, you reach the front door of this atmospheric home. Inside, in the hallway, you will find the meter cupboard and a newly finished toilet area with a standing toilet and sink. The floor is covered with tiles in a wood pattern, a beautiful combination of the warm feel of wood and the maintenance ease of tiles. This flooring runs throughout the ground floor, creating a calm and spacious atmosphere.
PEEP IN THE KITCHEN
From the hallway you enter the open kitchen which was completely renewed in 2018 and is connected to the living room. This has created a large, open living space where cooking, eating, and socializing are central. The peninsula forms the heart of the space: a place where you can enjoy breakfast together in the morning or casually pull up a chair for a cup of coffee while someone else cooks. The kitchen is fully equipped with a four-burner induction cooktop and an additional teppanyaki griddle. The ventilation system has been stylishly integrated into the ceiling, giving the entire space a sleek and modern look. Additionally, there are two ovens, one of which includes a combination microwave function, a large refrigerator, a dishwasher, and a boiler under the sink for instant hot water. The granite worktop is not only stylish but also practical: heat-resistant, scratch-proof, and ideal for those who enjoy cooking. In the many cabinets and drawers there is ample storage space for pots, dishes, and kitchen utensils.
IN THE LIVING ROOM
The living room is effectively divided into two sections with the kitchen serving as a natural divider. At the front of the house, there is a cozy seating area with a large window that provides plenty of daylight. The electric fireplace adds extra atmosphere and warmth during colder months. At the back of the house, there is currently a playroom set up. Here you can enjoy the view of the garden and the light, open feel thanks to two skylights in the ceiling which were renewed in 2023.
ARE YOU COMING UP WITH ME?
WHEN WE COME UP
On the first floor there are three nicely finished bedrooms of generous size, all ready for immediate use. The laminate flooring runs seamlessly through all rooms, creating a warm and tranquil atmosphere.
SLEEPING ROOMS
The three bedrooms are all nicely spacious, and the largest bedroom additionally has a handy wall cupboard under the stairs to the attic, perfect for storing clothes, bedding or toys without losing living space. All bedrooms are also equipped with roller blinds, fly screens and casement windows so that you enjoy comfort and convenience in every room: well-ventilated in summer and wonderfully darkened at night.
VIEW THE BATHROOM
The bathroom, completely renovated in 2018, exudes modern comfort and style. The spacious walk-in shower is equipped with a rain shower and handy wall niches that are ideal for placing shampoo and shower gel. Furthermore, the bathroom has a double sink with storage furniture, a designer radiator, and a rotating towel rack with roller blind and curtain, pleasant for natural ventilation and extra comfort. The floor is provided with wooden-look tiles that provide a warm radiance, while in the shower area and next to the toilet use has been made of stone-patterned tiles combined with neutral wall tiles for a calm overall look.
A LOOK AT THE TOP FLOOR
The attic floor is accessible via a fixed staircase and offers ample extra space and possibilities. Currently, this floor serves as a storage attic, but with relatively simple adjustments you can create a full-fledged extra room here. Think of a bedroom, office or hobby room. With the possible addition of a dormer window, this creates a beautiful light space with even more living comfort. Also, the central heating system (Nefit 2018) and the inverter of the solar panels are neatly hidden here, keeping everything practical and clear.
WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO SEE?
KITCHEN CABINET/STORAGE
Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room/storage, a practical and functional space equipped with all conveniences. Here you will find the connections for the washing machine and dryer, and there is also ample space for an additional refrigerator and/or freezer, ideal for families or for those who like to keep extra supplies at home. The space features handy built-in cabinets where you can easily store various items, household goods or provisions. Everything is clearly visible and within easy reach without compromising the living space in the house. Through a door in the utility room, you can step directly outside to the driveway. Here you can park your car on your own property, always practical! And for the forward-thinking resident, there is also a charging station for an electric car available.
Former Garage (Man Cave)
The former garage has been transformed into a ‘mancave’: a nice place to relax, play games or enjoy an evening with friends away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Thanks to the neutral finish and practical layout, this space is however versatile. So you can easily use the room as a playroom for the children, a quiet home office, or even as a practice room at home. Via the utility kitchen there is indeed a handy, direct access to the outdoors so that visitors or clients do not have to walk through the rest of the house. The room is provided with a laminate floor which provides a warm appearance and easy maintenance. The window on the garden side brings pleasant daylight inside and is equipped with a roller blind so that you can easily regulate the temperature and ventilation. A multifunctional room that you can adapt to your lifestyle as desired!
ARE YOU COMING OUT TO LOOK?
The backyard is a cozy and low-maintenance outdoor space where you can relax beautifully. Thanks to the artificial grass, the garden looks well-kept and green all year round without you having to do much work. A large covered terrace, installed in 2020, invites you to long summer evenings outdoors or indeed to a cozy cup of coffee in the spring sunshine. Next to the terrace are a handy storage area and a shed, perfect for bicycles, garden tools or as extra storage. Thanks to the favorable location on the plot, you enjoy a lot of privacy and peace in this garden!
WHAT SELLERS WOULD RATHER DO WITHOUT
Here we go then! After 7 wonderful years in our little house, we are moving on to our next adventure. We have really enjoyed our home over the past years. The children were born here and had some great years in this neighborhood. This neighborhood is perfect for kids! There's a nice playground within 100 meters, where the kids can play nicely with all the children from the neighborhood. The neighborhood also has a very friendly and active neighborhood association that regularly organizes fun activities for the children. This has always been the case (I myself grew up here) and over all those years, the neighborhood has remained just as nice as it was before. It's no coincidence that many people live here who themselves grew up here and have come back to start their own family. We will really miss our street, as well as our nice neighbors! But for us, it's time for the next step. We wish the new residents lots of living pleasure, and above all hope that they will have just as much fun as we did! Read the full description
