Key Features
Description
This remarkable double villa is located in the exclusive Villapark district of Eindhoven and was originally built in 1929. The property was commissioned by Mr. Dubois, who served as director of the Boerenleenbank, and Mr. De Haes, a partner at the textile factory de Haes. The Dubois family resided at Parklaan 22, occupying what was designed as a stylish family villa surrounded by a magnificent garden. The L-shaped double villa was designed by architect B.J. Koldewey and constructed using yellow brick with ornamental details in tufstone, reflecting the architectural style of the late 1920s.
The villa has been carefully restored and maintained while preserving its historical character. The current owners have welcomed new residents to enjoy the quality of life this property offers. The residence contains six bedrooms, three bathrooms, and provides ample space for a home office, professional practice, or atelier at home. The positioning relative to the sun is excellent, with natural light entering from the east, south, and west sides throughout the day.
The location is outstanding, situated in one of the most prestigious villa neighborhoods of Eindhoven. Shopping center Haagwijk is within walking distance, as is Salto International School RISE. The villa is also conveniently positioned relative to the Technical University of Eindhoven (TU/e), the Karpendonkse Plas recreational lake, and the city center. Following the Parklaan by bicycle or on foot, the distance to the Markt, the central square of Eindhoven, is approximately 1.5 kilometers.
The ground floor of the property is tucked behind greenery, which creates a pleasant sense of privacy. The driveway features a remotely operated gate and leads to a garage, providing generous parking on the private grounds. The entrance is elegant, as is the reception hall with the staircase leading to the first floor. Adjacent to the front door is a spacious toilet room featuring an original steel window.
At the front of the villa are the living room with a bay window, which provides access to a covered terrace, and a separate sitting room that is currently partly used as a workspace. Folding doors open to a south-facing terrace, and the view toward the garden creates the impression of living in a park setting. This is actually accurate, as the villa is situated within the Villapark area.
The dining kitchen serves as an excellent space for family meals or entertaining friends and relatives. Large folding doors connect the kitchen with a spacious terrace and the garden. The kitchen layout includes a cooking island and offers all necessary comfort and top-quality appliances. Next to the kitchen is the former service entrance, with stairs leading down to a wine and provision cellar. At the rear is a storage area or utility room that also provides access to the garage.
The first floor is reached via the stately staircase, which features large stained glass windows in the side wall. This level contains four spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it well-suited for family living. At the front are the master bedroom and a bedroom that is currently used as a dressing room. These rooms are connected to an internal balcony.
Additionally, there are two more bedrooms on this floor, with natural light from the east and west sides. The master bathroom, which has dual access, was completely renovated several years ago and provides all necessary comfort. For children living at home, there is a second bathroom that has been updated at various points.
The second floor demonstrates that this is indeed an ideal family villa. This level contains not only a spacious attic and a storage area, but also two generous bedrooms and a bathroom with a classic aesthetic. This arrangement is perfect for receiving guests or as a private suite for an au-pair.
The villa is surrounded on three sides by a generous and excellently maintained garden, with sunshine throughout the day. There are multiple terraces, and tall planting consisting of trees and shrubs ensures considerable privacy. The garden offers the opportunity for new owners to add their own chapter to the nearly 100-year history of this villa.
Regarding the technical specifications, the property received cavity wall insulation using glass wool in 2022, with the exception of the stairwell. Floor insulation using Reflex insulation foil was also installed in 2022.
