A hollow road leads to this stately castle surrounded by century-old trees and a beautifully landscaped 'French' parterre garden with balustrades, statues and fine yew pruning. Villa Le Cheneau was built in 1895 by former Leuven notary, Armand Hollanders, and was extended over the years to its current appearance. The landscaped castle grounds of some 1.8 hectares include exceptional trees and mature plantings, ideal for a lover of peace and privacy.
The castle, built in cottage style, covers 600 m2 and was divided into two living areas in 1988. In the process, the southern wing was redecorated with a modern interpretation. Thus, the ground floor consists of a spacious living room, kitchen, dining room and authentic fumoir. On the two upper floors one finds four bedrooms and two bathrooms. In the northern wing, great attention was paid to preserving the authentic style. Thus, the original parquet and tiled floors, the wooden staircase, the ornate ornaments and the generous fireplace mantel made of rouge belge have been preserved. The ground floor has a large hall with dining area, lounge, modern kitchen and pantry. On the two floors are an office, 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. In total, the château still offers an abundance of rooms to further decorate and expand as you wish.
The name "Le Cheneau", literally "the young oak", owes its name to the ancient oaks that stand in the beautiful French-inspired garden. Finally, on the south side one finds a swimming pool of about 65m2, with all pre-installations in place.
