Description
A STATELY MANSION FROM 1902 IN THE HEART OF BLOEMENDAAL WITH A SUNNY GARDEN, 7 BEDROOMS, A PRIVATE GARAGE, AND A SEPARATE GARDEN SHED
Choosing a house isn't something you just take lightly. Many factors play a role, but the most important is, of course, character. And this is precisely what this spectacular mansion certainly possesses.
This stately and surprisingly spacious house was built in 1902. Both inside and out, it boasts the characteristic elements so typical of this sought-after building period. The beautifully finished wooden cornices at the front and the wooden extension at the rear bring this classic house to its full potential. Inside, the house has been fully modernized, while thankfully preserving the typical features of that period.
This house welcomes you immediately upon entering with its high ceilings and attractive finishes.
In recent years, the house has been thoroughly renovated and made more sustainable by its owners. The entire roof has recently been insulated, replaced, and fitted with 12 solar panels, making the house's energy requirements surprisingly low.
At the rear of the house, this property boasts a unique private garage. Few homes in Bloemendaal offer this. The garage is ideal for parking a car, storing hobbies, and bicycles. The house also features a separate garden shed with its own bathroom, currently used as an au pair, but also suitable for older children or for working from home. This garden shed is also accessible via a rear entrance through the private garage.
With its many bedrooms, this is a wonderful family home.
If you're looking for a characterful family home where sustainability, style, space, and ambiance seamlessly blend, this is definitely your new home!
