Spacious detached family home with wraparound garden and separate outbuilding in green Etten-Leur
Key Features
Description
The property at Baai 23 in Etten-Leur is a spacious detached family home situated in the green residential area known as Baai. The house offers an impressive 234 square meters of living space on a generous plot of 980 square meters. This distinctive white property stands out due to its ample proportions, professional landscaping, and thoughtful design that prioritizes both comfort and functionality.
Upon approaching the property, visitors are greeted by a professionally designed garden that completely surrounds the house. The driveway provides parking space for up to six vehicles, making it particularly suitable for larger families or those who frequently host guests. The mature plantings and multiple terraces create an immediate sense of tranquility and privacy.
The interior begins with a generous entrance hall featuring an open staircase. The hall provides access to the ground floor toilet, living room, and kitchen. An alarm system is installed in this area for added security. The entrance immediately conveys the spacious and somewhat playful layout that characterizes the entire home.
The kitchen, measuring approximately 23 square meters, functions as a true living kitchen where cooking and socializing naturally converge. The practical kitchen layout offers ample workspace, and built-in cabinets provide more than sufficient storage for tableware and kitchen utensils. The kitchen features French doors that open directly to the garden, effectively making the outdoor space an extension of the living area during warmer months.
The living room is remarkably spacious at 62 square meters. Large windows on multiple sides of the property allow abundant natural light to flood the interior. The current arrangement features a central seating area that emphasizes the room's dimensions, though the space offers numerous possibilities for different configurations. The wooden flooring adds warmth and character to the room, though the neutral palette would equally suit a modern or industrial interior design approach. Like the kitchen, the living room also has French doors leading to the garden.
The ground floor layout creates a natural flow between the entrance, kitchen, and living areas. The positioning of the two sets of French doors allows for cross-ventilation during warmer months and creates a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
The first floor contains three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master bedroom is designed as a private retreat, complete with an en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, and a walk-in closet. This configuration provides a high level of comfort and personal space. The second bathroom is fully equipped with a bathtub, toilet, and washbasin, serving the other bedrooms or guests. This dual-bathroom arrangement eliminates morning congestion in larger households.
The inclusion of a walk-in closet adjacent to the master bedroom is a feature that provides significant additional storage without cluttering the bedroom itself. The air conditioning in this room ensures comfort during summer months. The en-suite bathroom arrangement adds to the sense of having a private retreat within the larger family home.
The attic level features a spacious landing with various storage options and an additional bedroom. This fifth bedroom is large enough to accommodate a bed, desk, and a separate sitting area, making it an ideal teenager's room where studying, relaxing, and sleeping can coexist. The attic landing also provides useful storage space that is easily accessible.
A notable feature of the property is the separate outbuilding located behind the main house. This space, currently used as a practice room, has its own central heating system and air conditioning. The possibilities for this space are numerous: it could serve as a home office, a studio or practice space, guest accommodation, a playroom, or an independent living area for an older teenager. The listing mentions potential for expansion at the rear of this structure.
The detached outbuilding with its own climate control systems represents a significant additional asset. In the current market, where working from home has become more common, having a separate, climate-controlled workspace is highly valued. The fact that this space has its own central heating and air conditioning means it can be used year-round without affecting the main house's climate control.
The garden surrounding the property has been professionally designed and maintained. Multiple terraces at different points around the house provide options for sun or shade throughout the day. The established plantings offer complete privacy while maintaining the green character of the neighborhood. The professional landscaping of a 980-square-meter plot represents substantial investment and effort.
The property was built during the period between 1945 and 1959. It currently holds an energy label C, indicating a moderate level of energy efficiency. The total volume of the building is 940 cubic meters.
The house contains a total of ten rooms, of which five are designated as bedrooms. In addition to the two full bathrooms, there is one separate toilet on the ground floor. The property spans two main living levels plus the attic space. There is also 20 square meters of other indoor space and 10 square meters of attached outdoor space such as a porch or covered terrace.
Storage is provided by a detached stone shed on the property. All parking is on-site, with the driveway accommodating multiple vehicles.
The neighborhood Baai in Etten-Leur is described as a green and quiet residential area. The property's position on a 980-square-meter plot within this setting emphasizes the combination of space and natural surroundings.
The asking price is 895,000 euros, which translates to approximately 3,825 euros per square meter of living space. The property is offered with a costs koper arrangement, meaning the buyer is responsible for transfer taxes and notary fees in addition to the purchase price. The method of acceptance is to be negotiated.
This property would appeal to various types of buyers: large families needing multiple bedrooms and living space, professionals who work from home and require a separate office space, or those who appreciate generous proportions and a well-maintained garden setting. The combination of the main house with its five bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus the versatile outbuilding, offers flexibility to adapt the property to changing needs over time.
