Key Features
Description
This characterful manufacturer's villa located at Provincialeweg 59 in Veldhoven Meerveldhoven offers a unique opportunity to acquire a property with significant historical value. Originally designed exactly one hundred years ago in 1925, the residence showcases a new historical architectural style that has made it one of the most distinctive homes in the area. With a total living area of 199 square meters spread across three full residential floors plus an additional storage attic, this semi-detached house provides ample space for creating a personalized dream villa.
The property makes an immediate impression upon arrival. A spacious driveway paved with classic cobblestones in a herringbone pattern leads to the covered side entrance. The front garden features a large border with colorful planting that adds to the welcoming atmosphere. The classical facade with authentic details creates a recognizable and beloved streetscape image that underscores the special character of this residence. A free view at the front enhances the sense of space and openness.
The entrance hall provides access to the main living areas and the staircase to the upper floors. The ground floor toilet room is partially tiled and equipped with a washbasin, wall-hung toilet, mechanical extraction, and natural daylight entering through a skylight at the top.
The beautiful and generous living room at the front of the property is truly an eye-catcher. The space features a warm oak parquet floor and high ceilings adorned with original ornamental plasterwork. A custom-made oak wall and bookcase extends to the high ceiling, with practical storage space at the lower section. The characteristic corner fireplace, executed in a combination of bluestone and marble, forms a stylish focal point. Large high windows at the front and side ensure an abundance of natural light and create a pleasant spacious feeling throughout the room.
On the other side of the hall, separable by a glass door, lies the generous dining room or living kitchen. This space is currently completely open to interpretation and offers numerous possibilities to realize a kitchen layout entirely according to personal taste and style. From this room there is a beautiful view of the backyard, which is directly accessible through a garden door.
Adjacent to the dining room is a spacious utility room, currently in use as a pantry for the former office space. Thanks to the window at the front, this area is also ideally suited for use as an office space, playroom, or homework station.
The first floor is fitted with floor covering and offers surprisingly generous dimensions and possibilities. On the right side there is a spacious bedroom that, due to the presence of two access doors, can easily be divided into two full rooms. At the front lies a second bedroom with built-in closet, perfectly suited as a children's room, study, or guest room. The bathroom requiring modernization is equipped with a shower cabin, washbasin with under-cabinet, and a tilt window providing natural daylight and ventilation. At the rear, a door gives access to the roof terrace.
Via a fixed open staircase one reaches the spacious and bright second floor, arranged as a workspace or additional bedroom. On the left side there is an atmospheric bedroom with its own washbasin, a Velux skylight, and a pull-down ladder providing access to the storage attic. At the beginning of this floor one finds a second kitchenette, equipped with a gas hob, sink, extractor hood, white wall tiles, and a washing machine connection. This floor is ideally suited as a guest accommodation, hobby room, teenager paradise, or even as a work-from-home space.
The backyard exudes tranquility and privacy and is characterized by a large trumpet vine tree that provides pleasant shade. Additionally, a Japanese maple tree adds a refined accent with its delicate foliage. The garden is largely planted with ground covers and has a natural, mature appearance. For those who appreciate greenery, this is a garden with abundant possibilities. With clever design, an attractive low-maintenance outdoor space can be created here to enjoy throughout the year.
In 2024 the entire roof was fitted with new slate covering, and the gutters were renewed on the inside. The property features double glazing on the ground floor and sun screens at the front of the ground floor. The Vaillant gas-fired central heating boiler dates from 2024 and is owned.
It should be noted that this villa has been used as office space in recent years, which means the buyer should take into account that some adaptations may be necessary to return it to full residential use. The property is located within walking and cycling distance of ASML and MMC, situated in the charming Meerveldhoven area near various amenities, schools, and main roads.
The energy label is C, with insulation present in the roof, partially double glazing, wall insulation, and floor insulation. The property has a total volume of 770 cubic meters and sits on a plot of 360 square meters. The backyard measures 133 square meters with a depth of 14 meters and a width of 9.5 meters, oriented to the northwest. Parking is available on the property as well as public parking in the vicinity.
