St Jorislaan 905611 PN EindhovenRochusbuurt

Live in a piece of Stratum history! This house with a unique and playful layout and large walled garden has been on the map for around 150 years! I invite you to come and take a look. Location: Location: Diversity is the word that characterises the Rochusbuurt neighbourhood in Eindhoven. By Eindhoven standards, you will encounter an unprecedented variety of people and homes here. And it works. Not only is it a unique neighbourhood in Eindhoven in terms of urban planning, it is also special from a social perspective. Its own neighbourhood newspaper and website are proof of this. This neighbourhood is within walking distance of the city centre, the city walking park with the Parktheater, and has good facilities such as a good primary school, a playground, and many shops and businesses on the Geldropseweg around the corner. Layout: The front door is in the middle, as befits a worker's house. The entrance is in a porch, followed by the living room across the full width. Look up at the centuries-old beam construction of the ceiling! The floor is well insulated and equipped with underfloor heating, covered with linoleum. The walls (originally brick walls) are also well insulated. The windows on either side of the front door porch overlook Gasthuisstraat and are double glazed. An open passageway leads to the kitchen, and two doors open onto the upper floor and the spacious cellar and former upstairs room. The hybrid heat pump is located in the cellar. The kitchen has a straight worktop with a composite top. Appliances include an induction hob, an oven and a dishwasher. The old fireplace is still present and the extractor hood is hidden inside it. From the kitchen, there is access to a second living space with a skylight and a door to the back garden. This could be a study, a hobby room or simply a place to sit and enjoy the view of the garden. Adjacent to this multifunctional room are the storage room, with connections for washing appliances, and the bathroom. The spacious, partially tiled bathroom has a wall-mounted toilet, a washbasin, a tiled walk-in shower with thermostatic tap, a designer radiator and mechanical ventilation. The stairs to the upper floor lead to a spacious landing with pine plank flooring. Daylight enters through two skylights and a window in the side wall. There is a narrow built-in cupboard and a hatch to the attic. The bedroom also has two skylights and sufficient space for cupboards under the sloping ceiling. Here too, there is pine flooring. The spacious garden is completely walled, completely private and has several terraces and a wide back entrance with a gate on St Jorislaan. It is a pity that we cannot show the charm of the garden in summer during the winter season. The old garden is surrounded by trees and is frequently visited by all kinds of birds. (Additional photos of the garden in summer have been added). A special house and definitely worth a visit! A bit of history: The buildings on St. Jorislaan are representative of the type of workers' houses that made up most of the buildings in the Eindhoven area during the 19th century. The buildings are the oldest and virtually the only ones that have been preserved from the early period of industrialisation. The buildings are part of a concentration of low-rise buildings that was characteristic of the villages around Eindhoven. In addition, the houses on Sint Jorislaan, together with the Sint Joriskerk (and presbytery) from 1885, located diagonally opposite, are important for the recognisability of the former centre of the former village of Stratum. Due to their location on an old road structure near St. Joris Church, the buildings on St. Jorislaan and the chimney contribute greatly to the recognisability of the former village centre of Stratum. Details: Built at the end of 1900, approx. 150 years old! Plot size 181 m2 Living area 85 m2 Energy label A Hybrid heat pump. Close to the centre and many amenities. Available very soon.
