Modern Detached Home with Large Garden and Premium Finishes
Key Features
Upsides
- Excellent energy efficiency with A+++ label, 18 solar panels, heat pump, heat recovery ventilation system, and triple glazing, resulting in very low energy costs.
- Spacious plot of 635 square meters with a garden surrounding the entire property, multiple terraces, and parking space for four vehicles including an EV charging station.
- Modern luxury finishes throughout including herringbone PVC flooring, black steel interior doors, and a high-end kitchen with premium built-in appliances such as a Quooker and automatic coffee system.
- Recent construction from 2022 with Woningborg guarantee certificate, meaning the property is virtually new and move-in ready with minimal maintenance required for years to come.
- Family-friendly location in a quiet neighborhood with young housing, good schools, sports facilities, and shopping within cycling distance, while major cities remain easily accessible via the nearby A17 highway.
Downsides
- The garden faces northeast, which means the main outdoor living areas receive less direct afternoon and evening sun compared to south or west-facing gardens.
- There is no separate garden shed or storage building in the garden, which may be inconvenient for storing garden equipment, bicycles, or other outdoor items.
- The second floor technical room occupies space that could otherwise serve as a fifth bedroom, and while conversion is possible, it would require modifications and investment.
- The asking price is not disclosed in the listing, listed as price on request, which may deter some buyers who prefer transparency or have specific budget constraints.
- The second floor lacks dormers, which while compensated by straight walls and good ceiling height, means less potential headroom at the edges of the rooms compared to properties with dormer windows.
Description
This modern detached residence, constructed in 2022, is situated on Prinsessenlaan in the village of Oud Gastel, part of the municipality of Halderberge. The property presents itself as move-in ready and has been meticulously maintained by the current owners. The house offers generous interior living space combined with an impressive garden that surrounds the entire property, making it particularly appealing for those who enjoy outdoor living.
The exterior of the home features freshly white brickwork that creates a striking contrast with the black roof tiles and dark window frames. This combination gives the property a contemporary and elegant appearance. The house is positioned on a quiet street within a family-friendly residential neighborhood characterized by young housing developments and abundant greenery. This location makes the property especially attractive for families looking to upgrade to more space and comfort.
Upon entering through the front door, you are welcomed into a spacious hallway that immediately showcases the stylish interior finishes. The walls are smoothly plastered, and the floor throughout the home is covered with a herringbone pattern PVC flooring that adds warmth and character to the spaces. The interior doors are finished in black steel, contributing to the modern aesthetic that runs throughout the property.
The living room is oriented toward the garden and features large floor-to-ceiling windows that allow abundant natural light to enter the space. These windows include sliding doors that open directly onto the terrace, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The room feels spacious and bright thanks to the thoughtful positioning of the glazing.
Located at the front of the house is the open kitchen, which represents a true highlight of the property. The kitchen features a generous cooking island and is finished in a modern and sleek style with matte black cabinetry. The kitchen is equipped with high-quality built-in appliances, including an induction cooktop with integrated extraction, a combination oven, a refrigerator, a freezer, a Quooker instant boiling water tap, and a fully automatic coffee system. This kitchen would satisfy even the most demanding cooking enthusiasts.
The entire home benefits from comfortable underfloor heating powered by hot water, which is connected to the sustainable heat pump system. Additionally, a heat recovery ventilation system ensures a constant and healthy indoor climate throughout the year, maintaining good air quality while recovering heat from the outgoing air.
The first floor contains three well-proportioned bedrooms. The largest of these bedrooms includes a spacious walk-in closet, providing ample storage for clothing and personal items. The bathroom on this floor is finished in a clean and modern style and features a walk-in shower, a single vanity with cabinet, and a toilet. For additional comfort, an electric radiator has been installed in the bathroom, which is particularly welcome on cold mornings or during cooler days.
The second floor houses one full-size bedroom. The second room on this floor has been set up as a technical room, housing the washing machine, the heat pump installation, the heat recovery ventilation system, and the inverter for the solar panels. There are no dormers present on this floor, but the straight walls and good ceiling height ensure that there is sufficient space and natural light. With relatively simple modifications, a fifth bedroom could potentially be created here should the need for additional space arise in the future.
The garden surrounding the property is a significant asset. Due to the northeast orientation, the garden receives sunlight throughout the day as it wraps around the house. The garden has been landscaped in a modern style with multiple terraces at different levels, a neatly maintained lawn, and mature plantings that provide privacy and a sense of established greenery. While there is no separate garden shed, the attached garage provides ample practical storage space. The wide driveway offers parking for approximately four vehicles on the property, and an electric vehicle charging station has been installed for convenient home charging.
This property has been fully prepared for the future with regard to energy efficiency. The energy-saving measures are comprehensive: eighteen solar panels, a heat pump system with underfloor heating, a heat recovery ventilation system, and excellent insulation across the floor, walls, and roof, complemented by triple-glazed HR+++ windows. These features result in low energy costs and a particularly comfortable indoor climate throughout the year, which is reflected in the A+++ energy label.
Oud Gastel is a charming village that offers a combination of rural tranquility and good accessibility. The property is located in a quiet, spacious neighborhood with relatively new construction and plenty of green spaces. Children can play safely outdoors, and the overall atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. For daily groceries, the center of Oud Gastel is within easy cycling distance, where you will find supermarkets, bakeries, and a drugstore. Primary schools and sports clubs are located nearby, and dining options are also within easy reach.
The central location relative to Roosendaal, Breda, Rotterdam, and the A17 highway makes commuting to work or traveling to larger cities straightforward. The surrounding area invites walking, cycling, and relaxation in nature, offering a pleasant balance between quiet residential living and having amenities within convenient reach.
The property comes with a Woningborg guarantee certificate, providing additional peace of mind regarding the construction quality. The total living area measures approximately 154 square meters, while the additional indoor space covers 18 square meters. The plot size is approximately 635 square meters, and the volume of the house is 633 cubic meters. The property is delivered in consultation regarding the exact date of transfer.
The current owners have expressed their satisfaction with living in this home, noting the light and spacious feeling, the pleasant areas for both togetherness and privacy, the quiet neighborhood location, and the surprisingly low living costs due to the good insulation and solar panels. They also appreciate the easy access to major roads leading to Roosendaal, Bergen op Zoom, Rotterdam, and Breda.
