Fully Renovated Exclusive City Villa with Heated Pool in Eindhoven

The property at Jan Smitzlaan 20 in Eindhoven, located in the Elzent-Noord neighborhood, represents a thoroughly renovated and refined city villa. The villa is situated in the prestigious Den Elzent villa district, an area characterized by beautiful parks and recently made car-free for added tranquility. The asking price is 2,500,000 euros (costs payable by the buyer), and this is a bidding from price.

The property offers a living area of 305 square meters, set on a plot of 512 square meters. Originally constructed in 1903, the villa has undergone a complete renovation in 2021 and 2022, with the use of high-quality materials throughout. The building now holds an A+ energy label, which is notable for a property of this age, achieved through comprehensive insulation of the roof, facade, and floor conforming to current standards, as well as the installation of HR++ glazing.

The ground floor features carefully restored exterior walls that have been rebuilt with full cavity insulation according to new construction standards. The hardwood mahogany window frames with HR++ glass were newly installed in 2022. The entrance features a hardstone step and leads to a spacious reception hall with a custom-made cabinet wall featuring oak slats, partially used as a cloakroom. On the right side, there is the stately staircase and a luxurious guest toilet.

A large anthracite pivot door with glass connects the hall to the open kitchen and living room, where daylight enters from four sides. The living area includes an office and dining corner, with a marble room divider with gas fireplace providing an atmosphere of pleasant calm and class. The open kitchen with island is equipped with high-tech Miele appliances, including two dishwashers, and has a spacious and modern appearance. Multiple double patio doors ensure an excellent connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

At the rear of the ground floor, there is a multifunctional space currently used as a seating area with a generous television section. From this area, a wide fixed staircase leads to the wine and provision cellar, which retains the original ceiling and offers ample light.

The first floor is accessed via the beautiful staircase to a spacious landing with daylight from two sides and access to a surprisingly large southwest-oriented terrace at the rear. The material choices and finishing level on this floor are excellent. There are four bedrooms on this floor, including the master bedroom with a custom-made wardrobe wall. A wardrobe wall has also been built on the landing for linen and storage.

The master bathroom at the rear features a bathtub, a luxury walk-in shower, and two washbasins. The second bathroom also has a walk-in shower. A toilet is located in a separate room accessible from the landing. This layout provides for carefree, luxurious, and stylish living.

The second floor, under the renewed and insulated roof with four large dormer windows at standing height, contains two additional bedrooms that both border a high multifunctional space with an open gallery. The atmosphere is defined by the original wooden interior wall cladding of the roof and the wooden roof construction from the early twentieth century. This floor also has a bath and laundry room and a toilet.

The garden, newly laid out, is equally appealing with tall plantings ensuring privacy and various terraces around the house offering a wonderful spot to enjoy the sun at different times of the day. The heated pool with solar and lamella cover was installed in 2024 and 2025. There is also a jacuzzi for alternative relaxation.

The garage, at 23 square meters, is surprisingly large, high, and fully insulated. It has double hardwood doors on both sides, with one side fully equipped with custom-built cabinets. Parking is available on the property.

Technical features include an Atag Q38SR gas-fired central heating boiler from 2021 (owned), approximately 200-liter boiler for hot water, an Aquacell anti-limescale system, a complete heat recovery ventilation system, and full underfloor heating on the ground and first floors. Nine solar panels of 435 Wp were installed on the garage in 2024. The property is fully equipped with a burglar alarm system including detection and camera systems.

The villa is located in a fantastic and quiet residential area surrounded by beautiful parks. The city center with shops, specialty stores, boutiques, and entertainment venues is within walking distance. Public transportation is easily accessible with the train and bus station nearby. The Technical University of Eindhoven (TU/e), ASML, and the High Tech Campus are within cycling distance. For walks in the park, visits to the Parktheater, or enjoying the atmosphere of De Bergen district, this location is ideal.

The property consists of 305 square meters of living space, 15 square meters of other indoor space, 24 square meters of building-bound outdoor space, and 23 square meters of external storage space. The volume of the building is 1,182 cubic meters. The property is registered at the Land Registry as STRATUM A 4592 with full ownership.

With six bedrooms and three bathrooms, this villa offers ample space for daily enjoyment. The combination of historical character elements, such as the original wooden roof construction, with modern amenities and sustainability features creates a unique living experience in one of Eindhoven's most desirable neighborhoods.

The Den Elzent villa district has long been considered one of the most prestigious residential areas in Eindhoven. The recent decision to make the area car-free has further enhanced the living quality, creating a peaceful environment where residents can enjoy the tree-lined streets and nearby parks without traffic disturbance. This transformation has made the neighborhood even more attractive to those seeking a combination of exclusivity and tranquility while maintaining excellent accessibility to urban amenities.

The renovation project undertaken in 2021 and 2022 was clearly executed with an uncompromising commitment to quality. Every detail has been considered, from the selection of mahogany window frames to the installation of Jasno wooden shutters that add both character and functionality to the property. The use of marble for the room divider demonstrates an attention to material quality that permeates the entire residence.

The heating and ventilation systems represent a thoughtful balance between comfort and efficiency. The HR boiler from Atag, combined with underfloor heating on the main living levels, ensures consistent warmth throughout the colder months. The heat recovery ventilation system maintains air quality while minimizing energy loss, contributing to the A+ energy rating that is exceptional for a building of this vintage.

The outdoor spaces have been designed to maximize usability throughout the seasons. The southwest orientation of the first-floor terrace ensures afternoon and evening sun exposure, while the ground-level terraces around the property provide options for different times of day. The heated swimming pool extends the outdoor living season, and the solar and lamella cover system provides both energy efficiency and convenience.

The wine cellar adds a distinctive feature that complements the luxury character of the property. With good light incidence and the original ceiling preserved, this space offers both practical storage and an atmospheric environment befitting a residence of this caliber.

The second floor represents an interesting architectural choice, preserving the original wooden roof structure while adapting the space for modern use. The high multifunctional space with open gallery creates a sense of volume and connection to the building's history, while the two bedrooms provide flexible accommodation options. This floor could serve various purposes depending on the needs of the occupants, from family bedrooms to hobby rooms or guest accommodation.

The security installation, including detection and camera systems, provides peace of mind for the residents. In a property of this value, such measures are both practical and expected by discerning buyers.

The proximity to major technology employers such as ASML and the High Tech Campus, as well as the Technical University, positions this property ideally for professionals working in Eindhoven's thriving technology sector. The combination of a prestigious residential address with convenient commuting options represents a compelling proposition for senior executives, entrepreneurs, or academics.
