HISTORIC FAMILY HOME, IN A BEAUTIFUL LOCATION IN THE DE BOOMBERG VILLA NEIGHBORHOOD Centrally located on the outskirts of the beloved Boomberg residential neighborhood, this stately half of a double villa sits on a spacious, sheltered lot of 522 m². A distinctive and spacious family home featuring a wide driveway, a sheltered garden, and no less than 253 m² of living space. It’s no coincidence that the villa has been designated a municipal monument. Its stately appearance, grand front door, beautiful authentic details, and high ceilings give the home a special charm, while it has been carefully modernized over the years. For instance, the home underwent a thorough renovation in 2009–2012, and the insulated tile roof was replaced in 2024. In total, the home features five bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing ample space for an active family life, working from home, and entertaining guests. A special and practical bonus is the presence of an elevator. LIVING AND COOKING Upon entering, you’ll immediately notice the impressive foyer and staircase, which underscore the home’s stately atmosphere. The high ornate ceilings, distinctive paneled doors, and en-suite doors lend the rooms a beautiful charm. Thanks to the tall windows, pleasant natural light floods the entire house. The spacious living room features a charming sunroom, a delightful spot to enjoy the view of the garden. The open kitchen connects to the dining room and offers plenty of opportunities for extensive cooking and cozy get-togethers. Tall double doors separate the kitchen from the living room. Adjacent to the kitchen is the practical pantry with ample storage cabinets. The elevator to the first floor is discreetly located in a corner of the kitchen and opens into a spacious bedroom at the rear of the first floor. This is a valuable feature for those with limited mobility and for those seeking a home designed for lifelong living. SLEEPING AND BATHING The first floor features three spacious bedrooms, two of which are equipped with air conditioning, and a modern bathroom with a bathtub, walk-in shower, and vanity. There is also a separate toilet. The second floor is designed as a full-fledged suite with a very spacious bedroom, a work area, a walk-in closet, and a smaller room with a dormer window. Here, too, air conditioning provides cooling and heating. The characteristic beamed ceilings and skylights give this floor a charming and unique character, and the skylight in the stairwell provides natural light. Thanks to the spacious layout, the walk-in closet, and the full bathroom with a bathtub, shower, toilet, and vanity, you’ll have a comfortable and private sleeping area here. The connections for a washing machine and dryer, as well as the space for the central heating boiler and water heater, are also located on this floor. OUTSIDE At the front, the home features a wide driveway with on-site parking for at least two cars, a beautiful decorative fence, and a wooden bike shed. The sheltered backyard, featuring a sun terrace, a large lawn, and tall green hedges with shrubs and trees surrounding the property, is a lovely place to relax outdoors in peace and enjoy the green surroundings, with regular visits from hedgehogs, squirrels, and birds. MODERNIZATIONS Over the years, the home has undergone significant modernizations while preserving its historic character. For example, in 2009–2012, the electrical system and central heating piping were replaced, an open kitchen was installed, and a bathroom was added. New flooring was also installed, and the walls and ceilings were given a sleek finish. The flat roof was replaced and insulated from the outside. In 2012, the attic floor underwent further renovation, including the creation of the suite, roof insulation, new skylights, and the installation of a second bathroom. In 2024, the pitched tile roof, including the zinc gutters, was replaced. Three bedrooms on the first and second floors are equipped with air conditioning, which can be used for both cooling and heating.
