Set on a no-through avenue in Apeldoorn’s Indische Buurt, this characterful detached town villa features a versatile extension and a sunny garden. The accommodation comprises a sitting room with conservatory, a spacious kitchen-diner, a garden room, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, an extension containing a utility room and home office, a basement and a hobby room. The private landscaped garden includes a pond with a watercourse, a covered veranda and several terraces.
The property is distinguished by its striking early twentieth-century architecture and versatile layout. Its historic exterior is complemented by comfortable, contemporary accommodation with ample space for working from home, relaxing and entertaining guests.
The elevations feature generous roof overhangs, decorative brackets, exposed timber detailing, wooden shutters and tall windows. The white-painted brickwork and authentic colour palette of dark green, ochre yellow and wine red give the property its distinctive appearance. The entire exterior was repainted in 2025.
A range of structural and energy-efficiency improvements has been undertaken. Cavity-wall insulation has been installed, while the original single glazing has been upgraded to insulated double glazing, retaining the feature stained-glass panels. A hybrid heat pump was installed in 2022, and the roofs are fitted with 56 solar panels. The coverings of the flat roofs were renewed in 2023. Zinc guttering and rainwater downpipes have also been installed. The entire front elevation is fitted with external sun blinds, while the side elevations retain their characteristic shutters, combining solar control and privacy with the original architectural appearance.
In 2009, the property was enlarged with a versatile extension that has been carefully integrated into the existing house. It is currently arranged as an office, with a hobby and storage room to the rear. The large glazed elevation extending into the apex provides abundant natural light and views over the garden.
With independent access from both the front and rear, the extension is well suited to professional use from home, such as a consulting room, advisory office, studio, design workspace or home office. Subject to any necessary consents, it could also be used as guest accommodation, a bed and breakfast or semi-independent living accommodation.
The private garden is planted with mature trees, hedges, perennials and flowering hydrangeas and features a pond with a watercourse. Several terraces surround the house, providing a choice of sunny and sheltered seating areas throughout the day.
The covered veranda has space for a large dining table and includes an outdoor kitchen with a worktop, sink and storage. There is also room for several barbecues, allowing the veranda to be used as an outdoor room for much of the year.
