Living without compromise: space, tranquility, sustainability and endless possibilities
In a beautiful location near the harbor of Sprang-Capelle, you will find this truly unique, fully renovated former farmhouse set on a generous plot of over 2,460 m². A home where space, luxury and future-proof living come together. With approximately 375 m² of living space, more than 300 m² of additional indoor space, an A++ energy label, 48 solar panels, heat pumps and an almost gas-free installation, this property is completely prepared for the future. And all this with the A59 motorway just one minute away and cities such as Den Bosch, Tilburg and Breda reachable within half an hour. Grand living, ultimate freedom, yet perfectly accessible.
A completed renovation project with vision and dedication
Between 2020 and 2025, the current owners left nothing to chance. The property has been renewed, made sustainable and refined from top to bottom. All pipes and installations have been replaced, floors and façades insulated, roofs fully renewed (including purlins and roof decking), and the home equipped with modern heat pumps.
The result? A comfortable, energy-efficient house with a surprisingly low electricity bill of approximately €170 per month. Cooking is currently still done on gas, by choice of the owners who enjoy cooking. Prefer induction? No problem — the necessary provisions are already in place. The home can easily be made completely gas-free.
Historic character with contemporary comfort
Behind its modern performance lies a home with a remarkable story. The original construction dates back to approximately 1850. During the Second World War, the front section was damaged, after which the front façade was rebuilt. Whereas the house once stood directly on the street, it is now positioned approximately six meters back. This makes it one of the few homes in this characteristic street with a generous front garden and ample distance from the road.
During the recent renovation, the façades were cleaned, impregnated, re-pointed where necessary and insulated. Authentic wooden beams have been preserved, left visible and professionally treated, creating a warm, characterful atmosphere with a nod to the past.
Life-cycle proof living with exceptional space
Despite its impressive dimensions, the home feels logical and comfortable. It is fully life-cycle proof. On the ground floor you will find, in addition to the spacious living room, a very generous bedroom, a large walk-in closet and a spacious bathroom. There is also a complete laundry room with ample storage and a sink.
Upstairs are three additional bedrooms and a second bathroom.
Do not be misled by the floor plans: due to the sheer size of the property, the rooms may appear smaller than they actually are. Please refer carefully to the listed dimensions — they truly reveal how spacious this home is.
A kitchen and bar designed for gathering
The inviting kitchen flows seamlessly into the cozy living room and features a kitchen island with an adjoining wooden dining table, plenty of storage space and all modern built-in appliances.
And then… accessible via the utility room, the garage or the veranda at the rear… the bar. Fully equipped with refrigeration units, its own restroom with toilet and urinal, and an impressive mezzanine reaching up to the roof ridge. Even from the attic level you can look down into the bar. This is a space that must be experienced.
A “garage” the size of a commercial hall
The adjoining garage hardly does justice to its name. With approximately 160 m² of space, a large sectional door at the rear measuring 3.5 meters in both width and height, a loft and additional indoor areas, it is a dream for car enthusiasts, camper storage, collectors or hobbyists. A large van can easily drive inside.
And that does not even include the additional indoor areas: including the attic above the bar, the property offers more than 300 m² of extra space in addition to the living area.
Suitable for B&B, home office or multi-generational living
The possibilities here are truly endless. A Bed & Breakfast is among the options (permit required), partly thanks to a separate entrance at the rear and ample on-site parking. Multi-generational living is also perfectly feasible: parents, children and grandchildren together, while maintaining privacy.
For those working from home, there is a spacious home office, accessible via its own entrance and overlooking the driveway.
Low-maintenance, quiet and comfortable
Thanks to uPVC window frames with wood-grain finish, concrete cladding in wood-look style and fully insulated façades, maintenance is minimal. Part of the glazing consists of sound-insulating (triple) glass, ensuring that traffic noise is barely audible in the living room and bedroom.
Underfloor heating on the ground floor, high-quality materials and carefully considered choices complete the comfort.
Technically perfected
Behind the scenes, everything has also been carefully arranged. The electrical installation is extensive and future-oriented, with multiple three-phase groups, separate distribution boards for the house and rear building, surge protection and full provisions for the solar panels.
An asbestos report from 2019 is available, confirming that no suspicious materials were found. All wooden trusses have been treated against woodworm, including warranty certification.
A place you need to experience
Words, floor plans and photos do their best, but this property cannot truly be captured on paper. The space, atmosphere, tranquility and possibilities must be experienced in person. The same applies to the outdoor area. As all time and energy were devoted to the house itself, the next owner has the opportunity to further design the garden to their own taste. A solid foundation is already in place: paving has been completed and a very spacious veranda — accessible from the bar — has been installed.
With the vast space behind and beside the house, the outdoor possibilities are virtually limitless.
