Spacious Corner Home with Two Bathrooms and South-Facing Garden in Schijndel
Key Features
Upsides
- The property features two full bathrooms, including a modern bathroom that was completely renovated in 2023 with luxurious amenities such as a double vanity, bathtub, walk-in shower, and electric underfloor heating.
- The south-facing backyard receives optimal sunlight throughout the day and offers good privacy, complemented by two covered outdoor areas that extend the usability of the garden across multiple seasons.
- The inclusion of fourteen solar panels and a modern high-efficiency central heating boiler from 2023 contributes to lower energy costs and reduced environmental impact.
- The location in the child-friendly Hoevenbraak neighborhood provides a quiet living environment while maintaining convenient access to Schijndel's town center and major roads to 's-Hertogenbosch and Eindhoven.
- The detached garage is equipped with electricity, heating and cooling via air conditioning, and a loft space, making it a versatile addition that can serve as a workshop, hobby space, or additional storage area.
Downsides
- Despite having full insulation and fourteen solar panels, the property still has an energy label C rating, which indicates moderate energy efficiency and may result in higher energy costs compared to more recently built or thoroughly renovated homes.
- The backyard measures only 51 square meters with dimensions of 9 meters deep by 5.7 meters wide, which is relatively small for a detached family home and may feel limited for families with children or those who enjoy gardening.
- The property only offers public parking options, meaning residents do not have a dedicated parking space on their own property besides the garage, which may lead to inconvenience when the garage is used for other purposes.
- The original construction date of 1955 means the property has an older foundation and structural elements that may require maintenance or future renovation, even though various updates have been made over the years.
- At 4,160 euros per square meter of living space, the price point is relatively high for a home of this age and location, which could affect future resale value appreciation potential.
Description
This attractive corner house is situated on the Wilhelminalaan in the child-friendly neighborhood of Hoevenbraak in Schijndel. The property offers a comfortable living environment in a quiet residential area that still provides convenient access to local amenities. The home was originally built in 1955 and has been updated over the years to meet modern living standards while retaining some characteristic elements.
The living area measures 119 square meters and is spread across three floors. The total content of the building is approximately 483 cubic meters. The plot covers 176 square meters, which includes the main residence, the garden, and a detached stone garage. Additionally, there is 30 square meters of external storage space available.
Upon entering the property through the front door, you reach the hallway which features a meter cupboard with seven circuit groups, two earth leakage switches, and a separate double group for the solar panels. The hallway also provides access to a fully tiled guest toilet equipped with a wall-hung toilet and a small sink. From the hall, you can reach the staircase leading to the first floor, and there is a practical storage closet that can be used for provisions.
The ground floor has a continuous tile floor that extends from the hallway through the living room, kitchen, and utility room. The living room has an L-shaped layout and benefits from abundant natural daylight thanks to windows on the front, side, and rear of the property. The walls are finished with smooth plasterwork, and the ceiling features characteristic wooden beams that add character to the space. The floor is covered with natural stone tiles equipped with underfloor heating, providing a comfortable temperature throughout the ground floor.
The open kitchen is connected to the living room and is designed in a light color scheme. It features a granite worktop and comes equipped with a five-burner gas hob, an extractor hood, a combination oven, a refrigerator, an apothecary cabinet, and a dishwasher. Adjacent to the kitchen is a bright utility room with a skylight that provides additional daylight. This space contains a fixed cabinet, a sink, and connections for a washing machine and dryer.

Both bedrooms feature a large dormer window, which adds significant space and natural light. In one of the bedrooms, the central heating boiler is installed in a fixed closet. A loft hatch provides access to a storage attic.
The backyard is located on the south side of the property, which means it receives plenty of sunlight throughout the day. The garden has been neatly laid out with a terrace, artificial grass, attractive borders, and a canopy. At the rear of the garden stands a detached stone garage that is equipped with electricity, an air conditioning unit that can also provide heating, a loft, and an electric garage door.

The property has full insulation and has been awarded energy label C. The roof is a gable roof covered with bituminous roofing material and tiles.
