LAYOUT
Entrance with a vestibule from which a glass door provides access to the hallway, featuring a wardrobe/meter cupboard, separate toilet, and access to the living floor.
This beautiful living-through floor has the sitting area at the front and features two large windows and an attractive open fireplace. The space flows seamlessly into the open-plan kitchen at the garden side. Both areas feature ornamental ceilings.
The spacious kitchen-diner has French doors opening onto the garden, which becomes an extension of the living space during summer. A striking feature is the narrow glass windows between the dining room and the open kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with white cabinets and drawers with stainless steel handles, combined with a dark mottled natural stone countertop. The kitchen also includes various built-in appliances, notably a five-burner stove with wok burner. A charming detail is the large window overlooking the garden.
The garden of approximately 62 m² faces south and is largely paved with narrow brick pavers. Directly adjoining the house, the garden features wooden decking. At the rear of the garden is a fully insulated garden house of over 9 m², equipped with electricity and heating.
From the hallway, a carpeted staircase leads to the upper sleeping floor, where the also carpeted landing provides access to all rooms.
There are two bedrooms on each side. The master bedroom at the front has French doors opening onto a Juliet balcony and a custom-made L-shaped built-in wardrobe. The adjacent room is currently used as a dressing room but could easily serve as a children’s room or home office.
At the rear there is another large bedroom and a smaller adjacent room, both overlooking the garden.
In the middle of the floor is the bathroom, fully finished with light grey tiles and equipped with a spacious walk-in shower, a wide wooden vanity unit with double sink and faucets, and a large mirror. The bathroom has underfloor heating.
