Elegant Living on the Zuidlaan – A Characterful Thatched Villa On the leafy Zuidlaan in the artist village of Bergen, nestled in the North Holland landscape, stands a villa that instantly captures your heart. A home with soul, character, and history. A residence where architecture, craftsmanship and the natural surroundings come together in a rare and harmonious composition. Welcome to Zuidlaan 26 – a thatched-roof villa built in the renowned style of the Bergense School. This is not just a place to live, but a place to truly experience life. This exclusive villa sits on a generous plot of over 1,100 m² and is surrounded by mature greenery, privacy, and tranquillity. From the moment you walk up the path to the front door, you can feel the special atmosphere. The architectural lines, the thoughtfully landscaped grounds, the rustling trees and garden – everything here feels just right. This is not a standard new-build home, but a villa with a story. A place where the love of style, comfort, and quality is present in every corner. A Welcoming Entrance Naturally, there is ample private parking on site, and a charming path leads you to the front door. Upon entering, you step into an impressive hallway: tall, spacious, and full of authentic details that immediately set the tone. Beautiful materials, original features, and a palpable warmth welcome you. This home has been modernised with respect for its past, and you can feel it. The balance between old and new is spot on. Living with Grandeur The hallway gives access to the expansive living areas, where the open-plan kitchen and living room flow naturally into one another. The kitchen is the heart of the home – a place for cooking, living, laughter and joy. Its generous layout and high-quality finish make it a space where you’ll love spending time – with family, friends, or in peaceful solitude. The living room is large without losing its intimacy. Thanks to the large windows and French doors, the room is bathed in natural light. The view of the garden creates a serene atmosphere, while the interior invites warmth and connection. It’s clear that this home has been lived in with love and has evolved with its residents over the years. The current owner has renovated and restyled the villa in several thoughtful phases – and it shows in every detail. Everything has been considered, everything is complete. And let’s not forget the stunning fireplace that stands proudly between the kitchen and living area. With views across the lush, fairy-tale garden, there is no more romantic place to be. Practical Luxury Beneath the home is a very spacious basement – perfect for storage, wine collection or hobbies. You’ll also find a fully equipped laundry room here, with connections for a washer and dryer. Functional and comfortable – just as it should be in a home of this calibre. Bedrooms and Bathrooms Upstairs on the first floor are three generous bedrooms. The master bedroom is a space of rare class: large, light-filled, and featuring its own private bathroom and toilet. The ensuite bathroom is elegantly styled, with a walk-in shower, modern vanity and luxurious materials throughout. The two other bedrooms are also well-proportioned and offer flexibility for family members, guests, or work and hobby use. These rooms are finished with the same care and attention, providing ample natural light and atmosphere. A second bathroom with shower, vanity and additional toilet completes this level. Above the first floor is a full-length attic, accessible by retractable stairs. It offers vast storage space – or perhaps you dream of an extra floor? The potential is there. Outdoor Living at Its Best Step outside and a garden unfolds that feels like a holiday retreat – every single day. The grounds are landscaped all around with multiple sunny terraces, ensuring you’ll always find a perfect spot in sun or shade. The mature, atmospheric planting blends naturally into the surroundings. In the garden you’ll find a fully equipped outdoor kitchen in Ibiza style – the ideal setting for long summer evenings with good company, delicious food and music. The use of natural materials, light colours and refined finishes creates a relaxed Mediterranean vibe. Additionally, the property includes a guesthouse with endless possibilities. Whether you dream of an artist’s studio, a home office, a private wellness space or even a multigenerational setup – everything is already in place. The guesthouse features its own bathroom, toilet, and living space. It’s perfectly suited as a care unit, a professional practice or Airbnb accommodation. And as if that’s not enough, the garden also includes a sauna. Just imagine: warming up in the sauna on a crisp winter’s day, then cooling off in the fresh outdoor air and relaxing under a blanket by the outdoor fireplace. This is true wellness at home. Life in Bergen The location of this villa is nothing short of ideal. Bergen is known for its rich cultural history, artist heritage, many galleries, fine restaurants, and stylish boutiques. You live here just moments from the woods, dunes and beach. At the same time, you’re close to Alkmaar and via the A9 quickly in Amsterdam. Zuidlaan is one of Bergen’s most desirable lanes: spacious, green, and lined with distinctive architecture. Here, you live peacefully, surrounded by quality and natural beauty. A Villa for Connoisseurs Zuidlaan 26 is not a home for just anyone. This is a villa for the true enthusiast – someone who appreciates style, space, tranquillity and craftsmanship.
