About Imbos 5, Almere

The plot measures 41,815 m², which is exceptionally large for a detached home. It offers plenty of space for gardening, outdoor activities, or even expansion (subject to planning permission). The home itself is 89 m², so the land-to-building ratio is very high.
The energy label is A+++, the highest possible rating. This means the home is extremely energy-efficient, with very low heating and electricity costs. It's a new build (2024), so it meets modern insulation and sustainability standards.
