Luxury and wellbeing are seamlessly integrated into the home's design. The laundry room and technical installations are also discreetly positioned on this level. Originally built in 1928, the villa was designed by renowned Hague architect J.H. Plantenga. Between 2010 and 2012, it was meticulously extended by more than twenty-two metres while preserving its original architectural style, under the direction of acclaimed Amsterdam architect Erik van Dijk of Schulze & Van Dijk Architects. Throughout the home are several versatile rooms ideally suited as offices, lounges, or workspaces, allowing living, working, and entertaining to blend effortlessly. The spacious open-plan kitchen forms the heart of the home. Finished with premium materials and equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Wolf range with grill, teppanyaki plate, and double oven, as well as Gaggenau wine climate cabinets, the kitchen perfectly balances functionality and elegance. A fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, while French doors open onto several terraces surrounding the villa, complete with outdoor lounges and a fire pit.

Characterised by soaring ceilings with exposed timber beams, expansive windows, and panoramic views over the landscaped gardens and surrounding countryside, this impressive space connects directly to the elevated section of the garden, situated on Bergen's historic ancient coastal ridge, a unique and distinctive natural setting. The villa is finished to an exceptional standard throughout, featuring continuous oak flooring, handcrafted Dauby door hardware, and a traditional thatched roof with elegant "sweeping eaves". A fully integrated lighting plan with ERCO fixtures, together with discreetly concealed Bang & Olufsen and Sonos audio systems, ensures that technology and comfort are seamlessly woven into the interior. At the centre of the home is an eight-person passenger lift serving all three floors, enhancing both accessibility and everyday comfort.
