While ownership does permit rental, Sorsaka Residences is not designed or intended for short-term tourist rentals. The community is focused on long-term senior living, and short-term rental activity may not align with the residential character or expectations of the Homeowners Association.
CARE
Sorsaka Residences does not provide in-house care services directly, but the adjacent Medisch Centrum Sorsaka hosts a range of healthcare providers, including general practitioners and specialists. In addition, we are in discussion with a home care provider based at Medisch Centrum Sorsaka, who would be able to deliver in-home care services to residents of Sorsaka Residences.
Residents will have access to general home care services, primarily focused on personal assistance and daily support (non-nursing). Additionally, all care available through Medisch Centrum Sorsaka, such as general practitioners and other medical professionals, is within immediate reach. Please note that these services are not provided by the developer, but through independent care providers based at Medisch Centrum Sorsaka.
Caregivers are treated the same as visitors and can enter the premises with the resident’s permission. If a resident provides a caregiver with keys or access credentials, the caregiver may enter at any time. In such cases, the resident remains fully responsible for granting and managing that access.
These types of services may be organized by individual residents or decided upon collectively by the Homeowners Association (VvE). However, they are not provided or coordinated by the developer. Residents are free to initiate or arrange such offerings if there is interest within the community.
A medical alarm system can be installed at the request of the resident. As with other support services, the implementation and use of such systems are not managed by the developer, but can be arranged individually or through the Homeowners Association (VvE).
Access to medical care is available through Medisch Centrum Sorsaka, which houses general practitioners and other healthcare providers. However, the developer does not manage or guarantee medical availability; residents are free to arrange such care directly with providers based at Medisch Centrum Sorsaka.
Sorsaka Residences will include standard emergency access and exit routes in line with local building regulations. Any additional emergency arrangements, such as access for emergency services or on-site protocols, can be determined and managed by the residents and the Homeowners Association (VvE).
SPECIAL
Yes, dogs are allowed at Sorsaka Residences. However, the Homeowners Association (VvE) may establish house rules concerning nuisance or behavior, to ensure a pleasant living environment for all residents.
Yes, cats are allowed at Sorsaka Residences. As with other pets, the Homeowners Association (VvE) may set guidelines to prevent nuisance or disturbances, ensuring harmony within the community.
No, keeping a horse or small pony is not permitted at Sorsaka Residences. These animals are simply too large and unsuitable for the residential setting and available facilities.
Yes, smoking is allowed inside your private apartment. However, from a medical perspective, we advise against smoking for general health reasons. The decision is, of course, entirely up to the resident.
No, smoking is strictly prohibited in all shared and common areas of the building. This policy is in place to maintain a clean, safe, and healthy environment for all residents.
No, there will not be a dedicated outdoor structure such as a palapa for smoking or hosting gatherings. Residents may smoke on their private balconies, provided it does not disturb others. For larger events or celebrations, we recommend using Parke den Dunki, located next door, which is much better suited for hosting birthday parties or similar occasions.
No, only one apartment layout is available. All units follow the same floor plan as shown in the official drawings. This ensures consistency in design, accessibility, and functionality across the entire building.
The listed prices reflect starting prices, which will increase with each new sales phase, typically aligned with the sale of each additional floor. Early buyers benefit from more favorable pricing, while later phases reflect progress in construction and rising demand.
All apartments are planned to be delivered more or less simultaneously, with no significant phasing between units. This ensures that all residents can move in around the same period and enjoy the full experience of Sorsaka Residences together.
