This apartment, located at Deventerstraat 20-C in Apeldoorn, offers a unique opportunity for those looking to engage in a hands-on approach to housing. With a size of 35.2 m², this studio apartment is designed for practicality and comfort. The layout allows for the inclusion of a separate bedroom and a private bathroom, making it suitable for various living arrangements. Additionally, a storage area with technical installations is available, providing convenience for residents.
Situated on the first floor, the apartment is part of the Post project in Apeldoorn, which features multiple rental apartments. The building is designed to cater to individuals facing challenges in securing affordable housing. The initiative is particularly focused on those who find it difficult to access regular rental options due to long waiting times or high income levels that disqualify them from social housing.
Residents will have the opportunity to build their own living space through a structured four-step process. This includes signing up for the desired apartment, working on a detailed plan during the option period, and receiving a budget for finishing touches with guidance from a construction coach. The end result is a home that meets legal standards while allowing for personal choices in design and layout.
The rental agreement is set for a minimum of two years, after which residents have the option to purchase the apartment at a predetermined price. This initiative aims to provide affordable housing solutions for individuals with lower incomes, enabling them to transition from renting to owning a home. The organization behind this project has successfully established numerous residences since 2017, fostering a sense of community among residents through organized gatherings and support.
