Description
Op a quiet, green location in Holsbeek, at the end of Sint-Geertruibosstraat, stands this characterful long-façade house in traditional regional style. The house was originally built in 1967 and is set on a magnificent plot of no less than 2,941 m², surrounded by a gently sloping landscaped garden with mature woodland trees. The residential park zoning guarantees peace, space and privacy.
With an impressive length of 25.40 m and a generous built-up area of 312 m², this home offers exceptional space. The living area of 261 m² (excluding attic, basement and internal garage) is thoughtfully laid out and exudes warmth and authenticity.
Inside you will find a spacious entrance hall with cloakroom and guest toilet, a light-filled living room with adjoining Victorian garden room, a separate dining room and a functional kitchen. The property also features four full-sized bedrooms, a bathroom, a separate toilet and many practical areas such as an internal double garage, laundry cellar, boiler room, storage cellar and a very spacious attic with expansion possibilities.
The home stands out for the use of authentic, antique materials throughout the living spaces: original doors, floors, fireplace mantels and ceiling beams create a timeless and unique feel. The façade is built in hand-moulded hard kiln-fired brick and finished with surrounds in white Gobertange stone.
Energy and comfort were also carefully considered. Thanks to the south-southwest orientation, large windows on the sunny side and limited openings on the north side, the house benefits from pleasant daylight and natural warmth. High-performance double glazing, wooden shutters and a renewed natural-gas condensing boiler (2024) contribute to efficient energy use.
A unique property for those seeking space, character and a green setting, without sacrificing accessibility.
The location combines the best of two worlds: absolute peace and nature, with excellent accessibility. The E314 is only 2.8 km away, Leuven is less than 5 km away, and Brussels Airport can be reached in about 20 minutes. Shops, public transport and the University Hospitals Gasthuisberg are nearby.
