Detached Family Home with Energy Label A in Brandevoort
Key Features
Upsides
- Energy label A ensures low energy costs and a comfortable indoor climate, supported by comprehensive insulation throughout the property.
- The ground-floor study provides flexibility for home office use, which has become increasingly valuable for modern homeowners.
- The possibility to create a fifth bedroom on the second floor adds future flexibility for growing families or those needing additional space.
- The internal garage with heating and electricity offers secure parking and additional storage, while the driveway accommodates multiple vehicles including electric car charging.
- The quiet residential location in Brandevoort combines proximity to amenities with easy access to nature areas and quick connections to Eindhoven via the A270.
Downsides
- The property has only one bathroom, which may be insufficient for a household with four or five bedrooms.
- The fifth bedroom requires conversion work and is not currently available as a separate sleeping space.
- The asking price of 679,000 euros results in a price per square metre of 4,325 euros, which is relatively high for a property built in 2001.
- The features section lists parking as public parking, which contradicts the description mentioning private parking with a charging station, potentially indicating an error in the listing that should be verified.
Description
Welcome to Brandevoort, specifically the attractive Schutsboom district. This detached house, connected to the garage, features energy label A and offers four bedrooms with the possibility of a fifth. The property provides a spacious living room, a modern eat-in kitchen, a ground-floor study with garden views, and an internal garage of good dimensions. The backyard contains multiple terraces and benefits from an excellent sun position, creating an inviting space for entertaining friends and family.
The Iekendonksevoort is a quiet street within the Schutsboom neighbourhood, characterised by ample greenery and two pleasant playgrounds for children. Shops, schools, and public transport are all within close proximity. An eco-zone is within walking distance, situated around the Veste and along the canal. Landgoed Gulbergen offers a beautiful setting for walking, running, or cycling through the Brabant countryside. Mierlo-Hout and Mierlo provide numerous amenities, including restaurants and various clubs and associations. The A270 motorway ensures quick connections to Eindhoven.
The ground floor begins with an entrance hall featuring a wooden floor that complements the staircase. A toilet room with a small washbasin is located directly ahead. The living room features a gas fireplace set within a classic mantelpiece, contributing to a warm atmosphere. Large windows ensure plenty of natural light, while sliding doors provide access to the covered terrace, which effectively extends the living space during favourable weather.
The eat-in kitchen has a dark tiled floor that pairs well with the L-shaped kitchen arrangement. The upper cabinets feature a wood-look finish, whilst the lower section is completed with a black composite worktop. Built-in appliances include a gas hob, extractor hood, dishwasher, combination oven, and refrigerator.
From the kitchen, access is provided to the garden-facing study, which could also serve as a children's playroom. The adjacent internal garage measures over six metres in length, offering ample space for a car, bicycles, and storage. Two classic doors in the garage open onto the driveway.
The first floor features a spacious landing with a window in the side wall providing natural light. A second toilet room with washbasin is located here. Three bedrooms are situated on this level, with two at the rear and the master bedroom at the front. One of the rear bedrooms is currently used as a dressing room but could easily function as a child's bedroom. The bathroom incorporates some classic elements in the wall tiles that suit the space. Facilities include a bathtub, separate shower, and a vanity unit with a large mirror. Ample storage is available within drawers and a cupboard.
The second floor is reached via a fixed staircase and contains a very spacious bedroom along with a storage and laundry room. The bedroom is sufficiently large to be divided, which would increase the bedroom count to five. From the storage area, a loft ladder provides access to an additional storage attic.
The covered terrace, a favoured spot of the current owners, connects to the deep west-facing garden. The atmosphere is defined by trees, varied planting, Corten steel elements, and ivy used as boundary screening. Multiple terrace areas allow for sun exposure throughout the day. The front garden also features Corten steel, presenting a clean and modern appearance. The driveway accommodates multiple vehicles.
The property was built in 2001 and features a pitched roof covered with tiles. It holds the GIW Waarborgcertificaat and Politiekeurmerk certifications. The living area measures 157 square metres, with additional indoor space of 19 square metres and 17 square metres of external space attached to the building. The plot covers 316 square metres, with the rear garden measuring 140 square metres at a depth of 14 metres and width of 10 metres. The total volume is 625 cubic metres.
Energy efficiency is a notable feature, with the property achieving energy label A through roof insulation, double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation. Heating and hot water are provided by a Remeha HR CW5 gas combi-boiler installed in 2024, which is included in the purchase. The property benefits from mechanical ventilation, exterior sun blinds, a skylight, and a sliding patio door.
The garage is a stone-built attached structure with capacity for one vehicle, equipped with electricity and heating, and benefits from wall and floor insulation. Parking on the property includes a charging point for electric vehicles. The property is located on a quiet road in a residential area with an open view, yet remains close to central facilities.
