Krullenlaan 5

The house has three levels, each with its own character. The top floor houses the living area: a surprisingly light-filled space where windows on all sides literally bring the seasons into the interior. The spacious kitchen-diner forms the heart of the home here – a place where cooking, socialising and enjoying life come together naturally. The generous worktop in honed Spanish marble, the high-quality Bosch built-in appliances, the wine climate cabinet and the cosy coffee corner make this space as practical as it is welcoming. Moreover, the living area is directly connected to the balcony via the sliding glass doors, where the view of the surrounding greenery and the wisteria makes every moment of the day special.

The middle floor is entirely fitted out as a sleeping area. Three spacious bedrooms each feature large sliding doors providing direct access to the garden and the natural swimming pool. Thanks to the generous windows and the use of floor-to-ceiling glass, daylight floods deep into the house, making even the lower living areas feel surprisingly light. The specially formulated concrete floor, finished with a carefully chosen colour inspired by the surrounding dune sand, creates a subtle transition between indoors and outdoors, allowing the landscape to become a natural part of the interior. This floor also features a modern bathroom with a walk-in shower and washbasin, as well as a separate toilet.

The lower living level offers plenty of space and flexibility. It comprises a spacious bedroom with sliding doors leading to the patio, a luxurious bathroom with a double washbasin, walk-in shower, walk-in wardrobe and toilet, a second bathroom with a washbasin, a separate toilet and the utility room. Furthermore, this floor is designed to accommodate a different layout, allowing for the easy creation of two additional bedrooms. The connections for a bath and a spa bath are also already in place, making this floor ideal for a comfortable guest floor or a private suite in its own right.

It is not only the architecture that is remarkable; the technology behind the house also deserves attention. The high-quality insulated roof is fitted with an integrated heating system that contributes to a comfortable and energy-efficient indoor climate. The house is also heated by a NIBE water-to-water heat pump in combination with low-temperature underfloor heating throughout the main building. A unique walking route has been created around the property, naturally connecting the various living levels.

The detached outbuilding is a valuable addition. A permit has already been granted to connect it to the main building via a connecting corridor. It features its own kitchen, bathroom, conservatory and a spacious loft where a fixed staircase can easily be installed. This offers numerous possibilities as a guest house, practice space, home office or an extension of the living space with additional bedrooms.

What makes this house special is the story behind its creation. An oak and a beech, both around 150 years old, once stood on this site. Rather than letting these distinctive trees be lost, they were given a new lease of life within the house itself. The oak has been incorporated into the kitchen, whilst the beech features in the ceiling battens and other interior elements. A tangible reminder of this place’s history, where past and future come together in a special way.

From practically every room, the house connects directly with the outside. The covered area, complete with an outdoor kitchen, dining table and seating area, ensures that you can enjoy nature to the full all year round. Sliding doors, patios, terraces and the natural swimming pool ensure that the seasons are a constant part of daily life. Here, the indoors and outdoors blend seamlessly, not only visually but also in terms of how they are used.
