The living room features large windows, providing abundant natural light and a seamless connection to the garden. The gas fireplace adds atmosphere and warmth, while the built-in cabinets offer practical storage. The open kitchen with marmoleum flooring features a modern handleless design by Yksi Ontwerp. Crafted by a custom interior builder, the kitchen includes a large wall of cabinets and a spacious cooking island with an attached bar with seating for four. It is equipped with a coffee corner, oven, refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, gas hob, extractor, and recessed lighting. The front garden has a sheltered seating area, directly accessible from the kitchen, a perfect spot to enjoy a quiet morning coffee surrounded by greenery and privacy. The garden includes lighting, an electrical outlet, and an outdoor tap. The spacious hall features original tiles and enamelled concrete panelling and includes a custom shoe cabinet, a large cellar cupboard, and a toilet with original tiles that complement the character of the home. First Floor The first floor comprises three generous, bright bedrooms, two with built-in wardrobes. The third bedroom is extended at the rear and features a beautiful zinc exterior finish. This room includes a custom desk and a colourful built-in wardrobe. The bathroom is located at the front and is equipped with a bathtub, toilet, and washbasin. Second Floor The second floor offers plenty of space, thanks in part to the width of the house and the dormer window. The entire floor features a contemporary oak herringbone vinyl floor. This level includes a spacious master bedroom with a washbasin and a custom-built wardrobe spanning the full width of the room. The second bedroom is currently used as an office. Additionally, there is a separate tiled laundry room with a Vaillant boiler (2021) and a sink with hot and cold water. Roof windows provide extra natural light. Outdoor Living The green rear garden is a peaceful oasis. Thanks to mature planting, including beech hedges and espalier apple trees, multiple terraces, a water connection, and an irrigation system, the garden offers optimal privacy. It has several electrical outlets and a convenient gate providing access to the rear path that leads directly to the garage courtyard. At the back of the garden stands a spacious brick outbuilding, which already serves as a pleasant workspace. The new façade of the outbuilding, installed in 2025, features HR++ glass, and the space has electricity. Additionally, the garden includes a large covered terrace with a kitchenette, sink, and tap a delightful spot for summer evenings. The current owners had previously considered adding a second garage combined with a garden house at the rear of the plot. The permit has expired, but the possibility remains in consultation with the municipality.
