Gelderland, Apeldoorn, Netherlands

Detached and charming extended 1930s family home with the appearance of a classic town villa. A house full of character, with stained glass, decorative mouldings, a bay window, a conservatory, generous living space and a surprisingly deep garden with a detached outbuilding, offering plenty of privacy. Here, history, comfort and everyday convenience come together in a natural way.

From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere is immediately apparent. The mature planting, flowering rhododendrons, light gravel path and characterful façade give the house a warm and inviting appearance. The entrance with stained glass, the stylish front door and the well-maintained paintwork immediately set the tone. This is a home with its own distinctive character and a pleasant, homely elegance.

Inside, you immediately experience the charm of the house. The hallway is light and spacious, with an attractive staircase, panelled doors and original details. The L-shaped living room forms the heart of the home: generous, atmospheric and beautifully light. At the front, the bay window offers lovely views of the greenery, while the conservatory provides additional space and outlook. The decorative mouldings, wooden flooring and stained-glass accents give the room character. The wood-burning stove with high-efficiency Barbas fireplace from 2023 makes the living room warm and intimate, perfect for long evenings by the fire.

The sitting and dining areas flow beautifully into one another and offer ample space for a large dining table, a comfortable seating area and everyday life with family or friends. Thanks to the large windows, daylight enters generously and the connection with the green surroundings is always present.

At the rear is the modern kitchen, sleekly finished with white fronts, a dark worktop and a practical layout. The kitchen is equipped with a combination oven/microwave, induction hob, extractor hood, dishwasher, fridge and freezer. The French doors to the garden make this a particularly pleasant place in the morning. A cup of coffee at the kitchen table, views of the greenery and the doors open to the outside: this is living with peace and comfort.

Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room. This practical space features a wall of cupboards with connections for a washing machine and tumble dryer, as well as an external door to the garden. A valuable addition for everyday use, with space for provisions, laundry appliances and garden essentials.

On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The principal bedroom has a calm atmosphere and a generous built-in wardrobe wall. The other rooms are suitable as children’s rooms, guest rooms or a home office. The bathroom is modern in design and fitted with a bath, separate shower, washbasin and toilet. The radiator installed in 2026 provides additional comfort. The characteristic details also continue on this floor, including the stained glass and the attractive staircase.

The second floor offers a landing, two rooms with dormer windows and a storage room. These rooms are suitable for use as bedrooms, workspaces, hobby rooms or guest accommodation. As such, the house can easily adapt to different living requirements and stages of life.

The cellar also provides practical storage space for provisions, wine, seasonal items or other belongings you prefer to keep out of sight.

From a technical perspective, considerable attention has also been paid to comfort and ease of use. The property has an energy label D, double glazing and secondary glazing to the stained-glass sections. The central heating boiler dates from 2024. The meter cupboard includes a three-phase connection and an additional circuit for the induction hob. Overall, the property makes a well-maintained and solid impression.

The garden is one of the great qualities of this home. Deep, mature, green and offering a high degree of privacy. Among other plants, the garden includes anemones, jasmine, hydrangea, hibiscus, magnolia, lilac and hostas. The two spacious terraces provide pleasant places for every moment of the day: breakfast in the morning sun, relaxed reading in the shade or long dinners with friends on a summer evening.

A particular added benefit is the detached, insulated and heated workspace. This former brick barn has been converted into a comfortable space for working from home, an artist’s studio, consulting room or hobby space. Its position separate from the main house provides peace and focus, while the workspace remains directly connected to the home.

The location is highly sought-after and distinctive. You live here in Apeldoorn-West, with plenty of greenery, characterful architecture and a peaceful residential environment. Park Berg & Bos, the woodland, Apenheul, Paleis Het Loo and various walking and cycling routes are all within easy reach. At the same time, the centre of Apeldoorn, shops, schools, sports facilities, restaurants and the railway station are easily accessible. Via the main roads, you can quickly reach the A1 and A50, with good connections to Deventer, Amersfoort, Arnhem, Zwolle and the Randstad.

This is a home for buyers who are drawn to character, light, space and greenery. For those who love coming home to a property with authentic details and contemporary comfort. For those seeking privacy, a generous garden, an excellent home-working space and the city within easy reach. An atmospheric family home in a location where everyday living feels particularly pleasant.
