Forest retreat bungalow with indoor pool on prime plot in 't Harde Ven

This spacious freestanding bungalow is situated on one of the most desirable locations in Son en Breugel, nestled within the forest of the exclusive residential area 't Harde Ven. The property occupies a generous plot of 779 square meters and offers a living area of 151 square meters, with an additional 116 square meters of other indoor space including the double garage and pool area.

The bungalow was originally constructed in 1959 and features a single-story layout, making it fully accessible and suitable for life-cycle living. The house is accessed via a private driveway with ample parking for multiple vehicles. From the covered entrance, a reception hall provides access to the main living areas as well as the meter cupboard.

The living room is thoughtfully designed with multiple seating zones. A cozy sitting area with an open fireplace offers direct views of the surrounding greenery, while large windows and a skylight flood the space with natural light. French doors provide access to the garden from the living area. Adjacent to the living room is an open kitchen located at the front of the property, featuring a practical corner layout equipped with a four-burner cooktop, extractor hood, refrigerator, and combination microwave oven.

A second living area at the rear of the property connects to a utility room where the Nefit HR combination boiler from 2013 is located, along with connections for laundry appliances. The utility room provides access to the double garage.

The sleeping wing is accessed via a central hallway, also finished with tiled flooring and plastered walls. A separate toilet with a wall-mounted toilet and small hand basin is located in this hallway. Three bedrooms are found in this section, one of which is currently used as a dressing room. The master bedroom is finished with carpet and plaster walls, features a fixed washbasin, skylight, and garden access. The second bedroom, currently serving as a dressing room, has a tiled floor and provides access to the indoor pool area. The third bedroom is a versatile space currently used as a dressing room and also offers garden views.

Two bathrooms serve the sleeping quarters. The first bathroom is accessible from the hallway and features a walk-in shower, fixed washbasin, and toilet. The second bathroom is directly connected to the master bedroom and is fully tiled, equipped with a shower cabin, washbasin furniture, fixed washbasin, and a wall-mounted toilet.

A standout feature of this property is the indoor pool area, which is accessed through the dressing room. The wellness and pool zone is a generous indoor space containing an existing indoor pool measuring 9 meters by 4.5 meters with a depth of 1.55 meters. The pool is currently not operational and will require modernization or repair by the buyer. The basic infrastructure including extra power supply, a dedicated Nefit boiler for pool heating, a filtration system, and a hot air heating unit are all in place, providing a solid foundation for restoring the pool to working condition. The space could be reimagined as a functional indoor pool, wellness area, or relaxation zone according to the new owner's preferences.

The double garage is accessible both from the utility room and from the driveway via two tilting doors, one of which is electrically operated. The garage is equipped with heating, electricity, and a pedestrian door leading to the garden.

The surrounding garden is a major asset of this property. The privately positioned garden wraps around the bungalow and is laid out with multiple terraces, a large lawn, mature planting, and trees. A large sunny terrace with a sunshade is located directly adjacent to the house, while a side path leads to a second terrace at the far end of the plot. A lockable gate provides access to the front of the property. The machine room, accessible from the main terrace, houses the technical installation for the pool including extra high-power electricity connection, the Nefit boiler for pool heating, the filter installation, and the hot air heating unit.

The property is finished with largely double-glazed windows and wall insulation. Heating is provided by the HR combination boiler from 2013 and the open fireplace. The energy label is rated E, indicating that buyers should budget for modernization costs, which the seller has acknowledged in the pricing.
