Characterful and exceptionally spacious 1930s corner house A characterful and exceptionally spacious 1930s corner house situated on a generous 438 m² plot, offering no less than approximately 157 m² of living space, a deep garden, a detached brick garage and plenty of potential to create a wonderful family home. This distinctive corner house, built in 1939, offers a combination that is rarely found: generous living space, an exceptionally large plot and numerous authentic period features. The property requires modernisation, making it an excellent opportunity for buyers wishing to create a home entirely to their own taste and requirements. Several original period features have been preserved, including panelled doors, an attractive en-suite living and dining room with stained-glass details, high ceilings and characteristic windows. The property also features a full-height basement, four bedrooms, a spacious attic floor offering possibilities for additional bedroom(s) and/or an additional bathroom, a balcony and a detached brick garage. A major advantage is the size of the plot. The property stands on no less than 438 m² of freehold land and is surrounded by front, side and exceptionally spacious rear gardens. The rear garden measures approximately 15 metres deep and approximately 15 metres wide. Its generous proportions and mature greenery provide plenty of privacy and numerous possibilities for creating several seating areas, a children’s play area or a beautifully redesigned garden. Parking is available both on the public road and on private property. LOCATION Van Kretschmar van Veenlaan is situated in a green residential area of Hilversum.
