Description
This detached country house is situated on the characteristic Prinsenbaan in the village of Koningsbosch, which is part of the municipality of Echt-Susteren. The property was originally constructed in 1990 and has been excellently maintained over the years. The home presents itself with a spacious layout, an appealing atmosphere, high quality finishes, and an attractive plot that offers a considerable degree of privacy.
The ground floor of the residence is equipped with comfortable underfloor heating throughout, which ensures a pleasant distribution of warmth and a high level of living comfort during all seasons. Upon entering through the front door, one is welcomed into a spacious entrance hall that immediately leaves a well cared for and stylish impression. In this hall, the meter cupboard is located, along with the staircase leading to the first floor and a modern guest toilet.
From the entrance hall, the spacious living room with an extension is accessible. This is a pleasant living space where natural light, space, and comfort are central elements. The extension features a skylight, which allows an abundance of natural daylight to enter and creates a bright, open atmosphere. Thanks to the large sliding door, the living room is in direct connection with the garden, causing the indoor and outdoor spaces to flow into each other in a natural manner. This makes the space highly suitable for both relaxing family moments and social gatherings with family and friends.
The kitchen forms the heart of the home and features a stylish kitchen setup with various built in appliances. The practical layout offers ample workspace and storage, making cooking and dining here a pleasant experience. Adjacent to the kitchen is the spacious utility room, which is a particularly practical space ideal for extra storage, placing laundry appliances, and creating an organized living environment. Thanks to the spacious layout, the utility room forms a valuable addition to the living comfort of this property.
The first floor is characterized by a particularly spacious and comfortable layout. Originally, four bedrooms were situated here, but by merging several rooms, a spatial and luxurious living level has been created. The impressive master bedroom offers ample space for a large bed and additional furniture and creates, thanks to the generous dimensions, a calm, hotel like atmosphere. Also located on this floor is a second spacious bedroom, which is complemented by a practical and separate dressing room.
The luxurious bathroom was completely renovated in 2014 and finished with high quality materials. This stylish space is equipped with comfortable underfloor heating, a pleasant bathtub, a generous walk in shower, a modern vanity unit with sufficient storage space, and a second toilet. Thanks to the thoughtful layout and high quality finish, the bathroom forms a comfortable place to start the day in a relaxed manner or to quietly wind down.
The current layout offers a unique combination of space, luxury, and living comfort. For those who desire extra bedrooms, it is possible to, in accordance with the original layout, relatively easily realize multiple bedrooms again. This floor therefore offers not only optimal living comfort for now, but also flexibility for the future.
The basement offers surprisingly much extra space with three separate cellar rooms, including facilities for washing and drying. In addition, the property has a garage and a practical attic space that is accessible via a pull down ladder.
In terms of sustainability, this property is prepared for the future thanks to the presence of 24 solar panels. The property has an energy label C and features roof insulation, double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation. Heating is provided by a combination boiler from 2008, a gas fireplace, and the aforementioned partial underfloor heating.
Outside, the feeling of freedom comes fully into its own. The beautifully landscaped garden offers optimal privacy and is a true refuge for peace and relaxation. Atmospheric pond features, multiple sun and shade terraces, a sheltered patio garden with a jacuzzi, and a stylish garden pavilion ensure an exclusive outdoor experience. Whether one wants to relax, receive guests, or enjoy outdoor life in peace, this garden offers the perfect setting for every occasion.
Koningsbosch is known for its quiet, rural character, the green and wooded surroundings, and the favorable location near Germany. The village is surrounded by nature reserves, walking and cycling routes. The Prinsenbaan itself has a rich history and partially follows the route of a former Roman road, which gives this location an extra special character.
The property has a total living area of 156 square meters, with an additional 69 square meters of other indoor space and 22 square meters of external storage. The plot covers 695 square meters, with the front garden measuring 420 square meters at a depth of 30 meters and a width of 14 meters. The garden is situated on the west side and is accessible via a rear path. Parking is available on the property's own grounds, and the attached garage provides space for one vehicle.
This country house in Koningsbosch combines space, comfort, sustainability, and privacy in a harmonious manner. The flexible layout, quality finishes, and premium outdoor features make this a property that merits an in person visit to fully appreciate its character and potential.
