Layout:

Ground floor:
Through the spacious front garden you reach the original mahogany wooden entrance. Upon entering, you step into the classic marble hallway. A second door leads to the long corridor, where a separate toilet is located on the left-hand side.

The living room is accessible via a door on the right and is situated at the front of the house, offering a bright and welcoming space to relax and watch TV, complete with a charming fireplace. The characteristic rounded bay window with beautiful stained glass adds a warm, authentic atmosphere.

Further down the corridor you reach the modern kitchen, equipped with high-quality Boretti built-in appliances. The dining room is located in the same area and can be closed off with the original stained-glass en-suite doors.

The hallway, dining room, and front sitting room all still feature the original Bruynzeel flooring (tropical hardwood from 1938), preserved in perfect condition.

Adjacent to the dining room, two steps down, you will find the true highlight of the house: a spectacularly high and bright space that you would never expect from the exterior and that instantly makes you want to live here.

From this room, one of the four exceptionally tall French doors leads directly into the sunny, wide south-facing garden. The garden includes a separate storage shed and a fully insulated workspace with electricity, ideal as a home office, hobby room, or additional storage. There is also convenient rear access.

From the extension, you also reach the additional side entrance of the house. This practical space offers ample storage for coats, bags, hockey sticks, and other sports equipment for both family members and pets. The side door is accessible via a garden gate, where waste bins and firewood are neatly stored out of sight.

First floor:
The first floor offers three bedrooms and a north-facing balcony. The modern bathroom is stylishly finished in mosaic tiles and features a bathtub, walk-in shower, and vanity unit.

Second floor:
The second floor comprises two bedrooms, two practical storage rooms with connections for a washing machine and dryer, and a south-facing balcony where you can fully enjoy the sun.
