Looking for a home that offers something a little different? Located in the green and popular Tussen de Vaarten Noord neighbourhood of Almere Stad, this surprisingly spacious drive-in corner house features a unique layout, three bedrooms, an integrated garage of over 21 m² and private parking for two cars. Built in 2000, the property offers 121 m² of living space on a 204 m² plot and has an energy label A.

The Neighbourhood
Tussen de Vaarten Noord is a popular, green residential area in Almere Stad, with plenty of amenities nearby. Within walking distance, you will find a small shopping centre, restaurants, hairdressers, a community centre, a healthcare centre, several primary schools and childcare facilities.
There is plenty for children to enjoy too. The neighbourhood has several playgrounds, while secondary schools and sports facilities are located nearby. The Fanny Blankers-Koen sports park offers a wide range of sporting opportunities, and Almere City FC's stadium is also close by. For a walk, bike ride or an afternoon out with the children, Leeghwaterplas lake is just a short cycle away, as are Jeugdland and local scouting facilities.
Transport links are excellent. The bus stop is less than 200 metres away, with a journey of approximately five minutes to Almere Parkwijk railway station. By car, the Tussenring provides easy access to the A6 and A27 motorways. Almere city centre is around a 10-minute cycle ride away.
Layout
Entrance and Kitchen-Diner
Through the hallway, which contains the meter cupboard and a toilet renovated in 2021, you can access the different levels of the property.
At the front of the house is the spacious kitchen-diner, positioned slightly above street level. This gives you pleasant views outside as well as a view of the lower-level living room. There is ample space for a large dining table, and the kitchen is fitted with a range of built-in appliances, including an induction hob, extractor hood, combination oven, combination microwave, fridge, freezer and dishwasher.
Living Room
A short flight of steps leads down to the living room. This difference in levels gives the property its distinctive character. The living room features a high ceiling, plastered walls, recessed spotlights and continuous laminate flooring.
Large windows and French doors opening onto the garden make this a wonderfully bright space. On sunny days, simply open the doors and step straight out into the garden.
Underfloor heating is installed in the hallway, kitchen and living room.
Lower Level – Garage and Parking
Beneath the house is an integrated garage measuring over 21 m², accessible directly from inside the property. It is ideal for a car, bicycles and additional storage. Together with the parking space on the driveway, there is room to park two cars on the property.
The garage also offers potential for a home office, hobby room or possibly an additional bedroom, subject to structural feasibility and any necessary permits.
The garage is classified as additional internal space and is therefore excluded from the property's 121 m² of living space.
First Floor
The first floor comprises three bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate utility room.
The largest bedroom is at the front of the house and spans the full width of the property. At the rear are two further bedrooms, suitable for use as children's rooms, guest bedrooms or home offices.
The bathroom was renovated in 2021 and features a spacious walk-in shower, a double washbasin with vanity unit and a wall-mounted toilet. The separate utility room provides space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
The Garden
The rear garden faces northwest and features several levels that complement the home's distinctive layout.
At the back of the garden, there is a wooden covered seating area with an adjoining wooden storage shed. It is a lovely place to sit outdoors in sheltered surroundings, whether you want protection from the weather or a little shade on sunny days. The shed provides practical storage space for garden chairs, cushions and tools.
Thanks to the corner position, the garden can also be accessed from the side. A municipal green space borders the side and rear of the garden, with a wide urban canal beyond. This creates a green setting, a feeling of openness and additional privacy.
