Ground floor:
You enter the house through a spacious, bright hall where the pleasant atmosphere is immediately felt. Here you find the staircase, a luxury toilet with sink, hanging toilet and urinal, a cloakroom and the meter cabinet. From the hall you have indoor access to both the double garage and the living room.
The living room is generously sized and divided into two atmospheric seating areas: one at the front and an impressive conservatory section at the back. Thanks to the many floor-to-ceiling windows, the space is flooded with natural light and you enjoy a beautiful view of the green garden surrounding it from everywhere. Despite its size, the entire space feels warm and cozy, partly due to the playful layout and the classic fireplace with a gas stove as a cozy focal point. The sliding doors seamlessly connect the living room to the terrace and backyard. In the conservatory, you are surprised by a spectacular view through the semi-circular façade with six high, interconnected windows – a place where indoors and outdoors seamlessly merge.

The open kitchen forms the heart of the house and is playfully arranged, with a fixed dining table for six people that subtly divides the space. The kitchen island with hood invites to cooking and getting together. Over the full width of the kitchen runs the worktop, with above it a double window that provides pleasant light and a nice view of the garden. The kitchen offers ample storage space and is equipped with various built-in appliances, including a dishwasher, fridge, freezer and combi oven/microwave. Via the sliding door you step directly onto the terrace, allowing the inside and outside to blend seamlessly. The entire living area, kitchen and entrance hall are finished with a light marble floor provided with underfloor heating.
Adjacent to the living room and kitchen, you reach a spacious bedroom, playroom or workroom with built-in cupboards and floor covering. In addition, there is a practical utility kitchen with kitchen unit, appliance connections, a cupboard with central heating installation, tiles with underfloor heating, double glazing and a door to the outside.
The built-in double garage of no less than 83 m² is fully insulated and equipped with a large radiator and two electric sectional doors, ideal for multiple cars, hobbies or extra storage space.

1st floor:
Via the open wooden staircase you reach the first floor, where a vide and a spacious L-shaped landing welcome you. Two large skylights ensure pleasant light here. From the landing, you have access to four bedrooms, each with their own character. One of the rooms has a loggia and a charming triangular gable. You also find the same playfully shaped gable above the staircase.
The royal bedroom above the garage is particularly bright thanks to four windows and features three fixed wardrobes. A subtle partition wall makes it possible to practically divide the space, for example with a TV on one side and a vanity table on the other. The rear bedroom is also spacious and equipped with four windows and two fixed wardrobe walls. In addition, there is a slightly smaller room with a wardrobe wall and a vaulted ceiling that runs through to the adjacent bathroom.
The luxurious bathroom is a place to relax comfortably. In the generous corner bath, you can enjoy a good book or relax with a view of the TV. Furthermore, the bathroom is equipped with a spacious shower corner with a glass door, a toilet and bidet, and a stylish vanity unit with double sink, large mirror, and ample storage space. The wide ceiling provides natural daylight and good ventilation.

2nd floor:
Through a hatch with a spiral staircase, accessible from the smaller bedroom, you reach the surprisingly spacious and walkable attic. This extends over the entire house and has windows on both the front and back sides, ideal for extra storage space.

Garden and parking:
The house has a wide, neatly paved driveway that offers ample parking space. The front yard and side yard are carefully landscaped with hedges, various plantings, and beautifully shaped conifers. Via both sides of the house you reach the magnificent backyard.
The magnificent terrace with a special pattern runs from the sliding doors in the living room along the conservatory to the sliding window in the kitchen and is partially covered. A sunshade near the kitchen provides pleasant shade on sunny days. Directly behind the terrace, a stylish water feature with waterfalls and flowerpots forms a calming focal point. The garden consists of an extensive lawn, interspersed with trees, conifers and borders with evergreen shrubs. The luxurious garden shed is divided into three rooms with multiple entrances, ideal for bicycles and gardening tools. The middle section can be fully opened, creating a fine canopy with a terrace. Through a passage covered in climbing plants you walk through to the water, where a wooden deck terrace invites you to relax. In short, a garden that surprises, inspires and has something to offer all year round.
