A warm welcome
As soon as you stand in front of the house, the magnificent historical façade immediately catches your eye. A façade that has been part of the streetscape of Heusden Vesting for centuries and that immediately piques curiosity about what lies behind the front door.
Inside, you are received in an impressively spacious hall. Perhaps just a bit more opulent than you expect, but precisely because of that, this space offers countless possibilities. Think of a workspace, reading nook, cloakroom or simply a reception area. Here you immediately experience the atmosphere and character of this special home. From the hall, you have access to the living room, kitchen and staircase.
Living & cooking
The living room exudes warmth and history. The high ceilings create a delightful sense of space, while the ingenious daylight entry ensures a beautiful light experience throughout the day. The showstopper is undoubtedly the atmospheric open fireplace with a special backplate on which the coat of arms of ‘De Vosch en de Craen’ is visible. A unique historical detail that perfectly fits with the rich history of the property.
In addition, the living room has a charming alcove that may have previously served as a bedroom. Today, this spot forms an ideal home office, reading nook, or practical built-in closet. Moreover, the toilet is located beneath the stairs.
The kitchen was completely renovated in 2023 and executed in a warm, authentic style that seamlessly fits the character of the house. The kitchen features, among other things, a combi-oven, fridge/freezer combination, dishwasher and induction cooktop with integrated extraction, all from the brand Miele, and a Quooker. A nice place where cooking and conviviality come together.
Sleep, dream & shower
On the first floor you come out into the hallway, where the atmosphere of the house remains immediately noticeable. The fine wooden accents, visible beams and characterful finish give this floor a warm radiance. Here are two well-finished bedrooms, both with pleasant light and plenty of atmosphere.
The bathroom is simply but functionally equipped with a shower, toilet and sink. In addition, there is the light well here that cleverly provides extra daylight into the living room. Via a carpeted staircase you reach the spacious attic. An ideal place for storing seasonal items, archives or other things that you don't need daily.
