Key Features
Upsides
- Extensive sustainable installations including twenty solar panels, a hybrid heat pump and a water softening system provide low operating costs and a high energy rating.
- The property features a private garden with a built‑in jacuzzi and an outdoor shower, offering a unique leisure space for residents.
- A luxury kitchen equipped with high end Neff and Miele appliances and a spacious glass conservatory create a modern and functional living environment.
- Three bedrooms on the first floor together with a flexible attic space allow for future reconfiguration into additional rooms or home office areas.
- The location offers easy access to schools, shops, public transport and major motorways while remaining situated in a quiet, family friendly neighbourhood.
Downsides
- The house was built in 2011, so some structural elements may be approaching typical renovation cycles.
- The gas boiler installed in 2011 is a conventional model, which may be less efficient than newer fully electric heat pump systems.
- The garden faces north, which may result in limited direct sunlight for the lawn and some outdoor plants.
- The property includes a relatively small rear yard of ninety nine square metres, which could be restrictive for larger outdoor activities.
- Air conditioning is only installed on the upper floor, leaving the ground floor reliant on floor heating and natural ventilation during hot summer days.
Description
Lover 122 is a modern family residence located in the quiet and green neighbourhood of Bornsche Maten in Borne. The property was constructed in 2011 and sits on a parcel of 248 square metres. The building presents a traditional pitched roof covered with tiles and offers a total living space of approximately 180 square metres. The layout is spread over two main storeys with a usable attic space and an additional loft that can be adapted for further rooms or storage.
Upon entering the home the visitor is welcomed by a hallway that provides access to a guest toilet, the staircase and the principal living area. The living room is arranged as an ensuite space with a large bay window that admits abundant natural light. The floor is heated throughout the ground level, creating a comfortable environment during colder months. The room is arranged with a clear division between seating and dining zones, allowing flexible use for family activities.
The open kitchen is positioned adjacent to the living area and is equipped with high quality built‑in appliances from Neff and Miele. The appliance range includes a five burner induction cooktop, a combination microwave oven, a refrigerator, an integrated coffee machine and an extractor hood. The kitchen layout supports efficient workflow and provides direct access to a glass enclosed conservatory. The conservatory offers a year‑round view of the garden and serves as a transitional space between indoor and outdoor living.
From the conservatory a set of doors opens onto a private garden that faces north. The garden measures roughly ninety nine square metres and is surrounded by mature planting that enhances privacy. Within the garden a built‑in jacuzzi and an outdoor shower are installed, providing a relaxing retreat after a long day. The garden also includes a paved area suitable for outdoor seating and dining.
The first floor contains three generously sized bedrooms. Climate control is provided by a centrally located air conditioning unit that delivers both heating and cooling to the rooms on this level. The bathroom was completely renovated in 2025 and features a spacious walk‑in shower, a double sink with a vanity, heated mirrors, a modern toilet, a designer radiator and floor heating. The finish materials are contemporary and presented in a neutral colour palette.
Access to the attic is gained via a permanent staircase. The attic houses the central heating equipment, the inverter for the photovoltaic system and the connections for a washing machine and dryer. The space is uncluttered and presents the possibility of being reconfigured into one or two additional bedrooms, depending on the needs of the occupants. Above the attic there is a loft area that can be used for storage.
The home is equipped with a range of sustainable and comfort enhancing systems. Twenty photovoltaic panels are installed on the roof, supplying a significant portion of the household electricity consumption. A water softening system treats the mains supply, improving water quality throughout the property. In addition to the floor heating on the ground floor, a hybrid heat pump works together with a gas fired boiler to provide efficient heating and hot water. Central air conditioning on the upper level ensures a pleasant indoor climate during the summer months.
Energy performance of the dwelling is rated at the highest level, A plus plus plus, indicating very low energy consumption. The building envelope is fully insulated, reducing heat loss and contributing to the high energy rating. The property is also connected to high speed fibre optic internet, offers cable television and is linked to the local gas and electricity networks.
The location of the house is convenient for families. The neighbourhood is characterised by low traffic and ample green space. Within walking distance there are shops, supermarkets, schools, childcare facilities and sports clubs. Public transport is well served; the Borne train station is nearby and provides connections to the regional cities of Hengelo, Enschede and Almelo. The A1 and A35 motorways are easily reachable, allowing rapid access to larger urban centres such as Deventer.
Parking is provided on the private plot as well as on the public street in front of the residence. The property is registered under full ownership and the cadastral reference is BORNE L 512. The legal description confirms that the land is free of easements that would restrict use.
In summary the residence combines modern design, high quality finishes, extensive sustainable installations and a range of comfort features. The spacious interior, the private garden with a jacuzzi and the strong energy performance make the home well suited for families seeking a ready to move in property that balances luxury with environmental responsibility.
