Living with the countryside as your backyard – welcome to “De Hazelaar”

Are you looking for peace, space and a view that never grows old? Then you will immediately feel at home in this charming semi-detached house, lovingly named “De Hazelaar.” Built in 1974, the property is situated on the edge of the Zuidbuurt and enjoys uninterrupted views across the surrounding meadows from almost every room.

Every season brings a different landscape, while sheep, hares, geese, swans, ducks, cows, ponies and even storks regularly form part of the daily scenery. The location offers a unique combination of privacy and tranquillity, yet cities such as Leiden, Zoetermeer and The Hague are all easily accessible.

Thanks to the deep front garden, the house is set back from the road, creating a sheltered setting and a wonderfully sunny garden with a high degree of privacy.

Layout
Ground floor
The covered entrance leads into a surprisingly spacious hallway, with the meter cupboard located to the left. The hallway provides access to the staircase leading to the first floor and a modern toilet with a wall-mounted closet and washbasin.
The generously sized living room with open dining area is wonderfully bright and enjoys views towards the street at the front, the rear garden and the open countryside beyond. The fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, making this a particularly pleasant living space throughout the year.
The semi-open kitchen, renovated in 2013, is fitted with a range of built-in appliances, including a dishwasher, induction hob with extractor hood, refrigerator, Quooker tap, freezer and combination oven. The breakfast bar with seating for two is the perfect spot for a morning coffee or an evening drink.
French doors provide direct access to the sunny rear garden.

First floor
The spacious landing provides access to two generous bedrooms and the bathroom.
One of the bedrooms features a wall of built-in wardrobes and enjoys truly spectacular views across the countryside at the rear of the property.
The bathroom, also renovated in 2013, is equipped with a walk-in shower, toilet, washbasin unit and connections for both a washing machine and dryer.
Should additional accommodation be required, a third bedroom could easily be created by installing a partition wall on the landing.

Attic
A loft ladder from the landing provides access to the practical storage attic, where the central heating system installed in 2023 is located, along with additional storage space.
The principal bedroom also benefits from its own loft ladder providing access to further attic storage.

Outdoor space
The sunny rear garden enjoys an excellent position, offering privacy and beautiful open views across the surrounding fields.
A covered terrace was added in 2019, allowing you to enjoy outdoor living throughout much of the year. The garden also benefits from a rear entrance.
The property further includes a detached brick-built storage shed and a spacious garage with a practical mezzanine storage level. Together, these provide ample space for storage, hobbies, bicycles and a car.
