MODERNIST VILLA ON A GENEROUS PLOT.
This fantastic, spacious villa, offering 298 m² of living space, features 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a TV room, a large chill/party area and wine cellar in the basement, a double garage, and a southwest-facing garden. The villa sits on a generous 863 m² plot and showcases the quintessential characteristics of Modernism: clean lines with large floor-to-ceiling windows. Beautiful vintage details have been preserved. The villa consists of a front and rear wing, has a light and sunny character, and provides a pleasant connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
This modernist architectural style is ideal for those who love sleek and bright designs. The original retro elements from the 1960s have been beautifully combined with contemporary convenience and comfort. The current residents have taken significant steps towards sustainability: all frames have been replaced with HR++ glass, the roof has been insulated, 11 solar panels have been installed, and the home features an additional hybrid heat pump.
The villa is located in the highly sought-after Raadhuiskwartier. All imaginable amenities are close by. Schools and a variety of sports facilities are within walking or cycling distance: tennis, horseback riding, swimming pool, etc. Shopping can be done at the “Westfield Mall of the Netherlands.” Cozy restaurants can be found at the Sluis in Leidschendam. The Hague, with its urban amenities, culture, and beach, is nearby. All cities in the Randstad are easily accessible via the nearby public transport. The N14 provides quick access to the A4, A44, or A12 within minutes.
EXCELLENT CENTRAL LOCATION.
From the side entrance on Prins Bernardlaan, you can drive onto the spacious driveway with room for multiple vehicles, which also features a three-phase charger for an electric car. This entrance provides access to the home via the back door.
Alternatively, you can reach the front door through the front garden. Upon entering, you step into a small vestibule that leads to an L-shaped hallway. Striking features here include a stained-glass window, the characteristic staircase, a natural stone floor, and beautiful sightlines. From the hallway, you can access the living area (including a TV room and open kitchen) and a toilet with a small sink.
The living area (approximately 43 m²) is sunny and spacious. The large windows provide expansive views of, and direct access to, the garden. A fireplace adds cozy and pleasant warmth (especially with air recirculation). The room features a high ceiling (2.8 meters) and a thoughtful layout. The floor is covered with tumbled slate tiles, and one wall showcases an original 1960s cabinet. The living area flows into the TV room and semi-open kitchen.
The adjoining TV room (14.3 m²) is an ideal play area for children or a pleasant workspace.
In the kitchen (14.5 m²), you’ll find handleless cabinets with a composite countertop and a five-burner gas stove (prepared for induction). Other features include an extractor hood, an oven, a microwave/oven combination, and a refrigerator. From the kitchen, you can access the utility room and the stairs to the basement.
The utility room houses connections for a washer and dryer, a kitchenette with a sink, and extra space for a freezer, for example. The back door leads to the driveway, and there’s also a door to the double garage.
The double garage, spanning approximately 44 m², is a perfect space for your classic cars. It could also be converted into a spacious gym or even a granny flat for parents or children (especially in combination with the room located above).
BEAUTIFULLY PRESERVED ORIGINAL VINTAGE DETAILS.
The staircase in the hallway leads to the upper floor. First, you arrive at a landing with a magnificent stained-glass window. From this landing, you can access a large bedroom (over 21 m²), currently used as an office. The windows on two sides make this space particularly bright.
On the first floor, you’ll find a spacious L-shaped landing with a stunning authentic ceiling. This landing transitions into a corridor leading to the bedrooms in the other wing.
At the end of the corridor is the spacious master bedroom (17.7 m²), which includes many original built-in closets. Adjacent to the master bedroom is an ensuite bathroom (5.5 m²) featuring a generous walk-in shower, a double sink with vanity, and a dressing table. The large window allows for ample natural light.
This floor also includes three additional bedrooms and a second bathroom.
All three bedrooms are well-sized (nearly 13 m², 11.5 m², and almost 10 m², respectively) and include sinks. Two of these bedrooms have access to private balconies.
The second bathroom is generously sized and features a bathtub, shower, sink, and toilet. The long wall is uniquely decorated with handcrafted mosaic tiles.
ENJOY A GREAT LIFE FULL OF FUN.
The fixed staircase in the kitchen leads to the large open space in the basement. From here, you can access the chill/party area, wine cellar, and technical room.
The chill/party area (nearly 44 m²) features an authentic Bierstube and a conversation pit. This space is a highlight of the home! Imagine all the parties you could host here. It’s also an ideal space for making music without disturbing anyone. This area, accessible via an outdoor staircase, offers endless possibilities for enjoyment.
The wine cellar provides the perfect environment for a serious wine collection, with its nearly constant temperature due to its depth.
The technical room houses the central heating boiler, the indoor unit of the hybrid heat pump, the solar panel inverter, and the electric boiler.
The garden is fully enclosed, bordered by greenery, and divided into different sections. A central walnut tree ensures optimal privacy and yields a generous walnut harvest. One section of the garden features a Japanese design. There’s also a fantastic veranda with a wood-burning stove. The glass sliding doors provide protection against wind and rain, while they can be fully opened in nice weather, allowing you to enjoy the garden year-round.
