Hondsbergselaan 75062 JR Oisterwijkomg. Europaln/Hondsbergseln

There are places where it is not the house, but the surroundings that form the starting point. Oude Hondsbergselaan is one of those exceptional locations where Oisterwijk almost imperceptibly gives way to woodland and nature. Tucked away in a lush, leafy setting are two individual building plots, surrounded by tranquillity and privacy. It is a place that offers the feeling of living in the countryside, while everything that makes Oisterwijk so desirable remains close at hand. The 'Oisterwijkse Bossen en Vennen' nature reserves are within easy reach, as is De Lind, with its restaurants, shops and terraces. Secluded, yet never remote. For this remarkable location, Spee Architecten has created two designs in which the natural surroundings form the very foundation of the architecture. Rather than dominating the landscape, these homes are designed to blend into the greenery and maintain a constant connection with the outdoors. Expansive glazing, strong architectural lines, natural materials and generous verandas reveal just how exceptional living here could be. A distinct architectural concept has been developed for each of the two plots. The Veranda House centres around sheltered outdoor living. Its generous veranda becomes a natural extension of the interior, while tall expanses of glass and carefully considered sightlines draw the surrounding landscape deep into the home. A design in which indoors and outdoors flow almost seamlessly into one another. The Long House derives its character from its elongated form. Beneath the striking continuous roofline, a sequence of living spaces unfolds, each with its own relationship to the garden. The horizontal architecture, expansive glazed façades and veranda enhance the sense of a home that stretches out into the landscape. Two distinctive designs, each with a character entirely its own, yet united by the same vision of living: architecture, space and nature in harmony. An exceptional opportunity to create a home in one of Oisterwijk’s greenest settings – a home that truly belongs to its surroundings.
