Situated in a beautiful and green location in the highly sought after Eckart/Dommeldal neighborhood, this surprisingly spacious corner house offers an exceptional living experience for families. The property features a practical extension, a garage, a private driveway, a carport, and a private south facing rear garden. With approximately 160 square meters of living space and a plot size of 220 square meters, this residence provides ample room for comfortable daily living. The home includes no fewer than four generous bedrooms, making it an ideal choice for families seeking space, comfort, and an excellent location. The property enjoys open views at both the front and rear and has been well maintained and upgraded over the years to ensure modern living standards.
The location in Eckart/Dommeldal is one of the key assets of this property. This green and peaceful residential area offers all amenities within easy reach. Shops, schools, and childcare facilities are located in the direct vicinity. Additionally, the presence of a hospital nearby adds to the convenience for families. For those who enjoy nature, the Dommel nature area is within walking distance, offering excellent opportunities for walking and cycling in a scenic environment. The accessibility of the home is excellent due to the nearby John F. Kennedylaan, which provides quick connections to the A2, N2, A50, and A58 motorways. This makes the property suitable for commuters who work in Eindhoven or surrounding cities while enjoying a quiet residential area.
Upon entering the property, you arrive at the entrance hall which houses the meter cupboard and a separate guest toilet. The staircase to the first floor is also located here. The ground floor features a spacious and bright living room that benefits significantly from the extension and large windows. This design allows plenty of natural light to flood the interior, creating a pleasant atmosphere. The living room is equipped with a marble floor, which adds a touch of luxury and requires minimal maintenance. From the living room, there is a pleasant view of the sunny rear garden, emphasizing the connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces. The open layout between the living area and the rest of the ground floor enhances the feeling of space.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a range of built-in appliances, ensuring that cooking is convenient and enjoyable. The appliances include a steam oven, a combination microwave oven, a dishwasher, and a large fridge freezer combination. This setup makes the kitchen ready for use without the need for immediate upgrades. The garden is also accessible directly from the kitchen, providing an alternative route to the outdoor terrace and making it easy to serve meals outside during the warmer months. The ground floor layout is practical and well suited for family life, offering distinct areas for cooking, dining, and relaxing.
The first floor of the property is accessible via the staircase in the hall. The landing provides access to three spacious bedrooms and the bathroom. The bedrooms are generously sized and offer enough space for a family, a home office, or a hobby room. This flexibility allows the new residents to configure the space according to their specific needs, whether that involves creating sleeping quarters for children or setting up a dedicated workspace. The presence of multiple large bedrooms on this level is a significant advantage for larger families. The bathroom on this floor is well appointed and features a shower, a bathtub, a toilet, and a vanity unit. This combination ensures that the bathroom serves both quick morning routines and relaxing baths.
The second floor is reached via a fixed staircase, leading to the fourth bedroom. Thanks to the large dormer window on the second floor, this space has been transformed into a bright and fully functional living area. The dormer window significantly increases the headroom and floor space, making this a genuine fourth bedroom rather than just a storage attic. This room is ideal for use as a master bedroom, a home office, or a teenager room. The versatility of this space adds to the overall functionality of the home. The dormer is equipped with an electric sun screen, which helps to regulate the temperature and light on sunny days, improving comfort levels in the room.
The outdoor space of this property is designed for privacy and enjoyment. The rear garden is ideally positioned facing south, which ensures sunlight throughout the day. A large covered terrace (overkapping) is a standout feature, making it possible to enjoy the garden almost all year round, regardless of the weather conditions. This covered area serves as an outdoor living room where you can sit sheltered from the rain or shaded from the sun. The garden offers a high degree of privacy, allowing residents to relax fully without being overlooked by neighbors. In addition to the back garden, the property features a front garden and a side garden, contributing to the spacious feel of the plot.
Parking and storage are well catered for at this address. The property features a garage, a private driveway, and a carport. This combination provides ample off street parking space for multiple vehicles and secure storage for bicycles or gardening equipment. The garage is an attached stone garage with an electric door, and it is equipped with electricity, heating, and running water. These amenities make the garage suitable for use as a workshop or hobby space in addition to parking. The availability of a private driveway is a valuable asset in this residential area, where on street parking can sometimes be competitive.
The property has seen various improvements to enhance sustainability and comfort. The energy label is C, which reflects the measures taken to insulate the home. The house features cavity wall insulation, roof insulation, and fully insulated flat roofs which were recently replaced. The windows are made of plastic (kunststof) and fitted with HR++ double glazing, contributing to better heat retention and energy efficiency. Furthermore, the property is equipped with five solar panels from the brand Enphase. These panels have a total capacity of 2100 watts and are approximately one and a half years old, offering a modern energy solution that can help reduce electricity costs.
Climate control is another modern feature of this home. Air conditioning is installed on the ground floor and the first floor. These units are from the premium brand Mitsubishi and are approximately one year old. This ensures that the property remains comfortable during the warmer summer months, adding to the high level of living comfort. The combination of insulation, modern glazing, solar panels, and air conditioning makes this a property that is ready for the future while maintaining the charm of its original construction year of 1964. The house is connected to the public water supply and sewage system and has a reliable heating system provided by an ATAG CV boiler from 2016.
In summary, this property offers a spacious and comfortable living environment in a prime location. The combination of a generous living area, four bedrooms, and a sunny garden with a covered terrace makes it highly suitable for families. The technical installations, such as the air conditioning and solar panels, provide additional comfort and efficiency. The location in Eckart/Dommeldal offers a green and quiet setting while maintaining excellent accessibility to main roads and local amenities.
