House for sale

Spacious house with garden next to nature reserve for renova

Spacious house with 4 bedrooms and large garden in a fantastic location.

The house is in need of a thorough renovation, but thanks to most recent interventions, some of the biggest costs have already been incurred and the house enjoys an EPC C rating: a new roof in 2012, a new gas condensing boiler in 2016, solar panels in 2021, and a new bathroom in 2022. The electricity has been inspected and the house is habitable for those who wish to undertake the renovation in phases.

The ground floor (88m²) consists of a spacious but very basic kitchen, a very spacious living room with space to create, for example, a playroom, an extra sitting area, or an office, a sunroom with a view of the large garden, and a toilet with a connection for a washing machine. The entire floor has a vinyl floor, and part of the living room has a cellar.

The first floor comprises 3 large bedrooms between 12 and 15m², two of which overlook the nature reserve, a new bathroom from 2022 with a shower and toilet, which can easily be expanded, and the stairs to the attic.

The attic floor was completely renovated in 2012 with a new and insulated roof on which 15 solar panels were installed in 2021. On this floor, we find the 4th large bedroom and a room that can be furnished as an office or hobby room.

The house is located between the busy Nijvelsebaan and the quiet, dead-end Putstraat, where the large southeast-facing garden (8 ares) opens up. Via the Putstraat, you can cycle traffic-free almost all the way to Leuven. Thanks to a passage next to the house, you can also access the garden directly from the Nijvelsebaan, which will be convenient once the Nijvelsebaan is reconstructed with bicycle paths in the future. Bicycles and 2 cars can be parked under the carport on the Putstraat.

Despite its location on a busy street, you can truly find peace in the house. Thanks to the view of greenery, both in the garden and of the nature reserve, and the orientation away from the busy road, you sometimes forget how close you are to Leuven.

The house is not asbestos-safe and needs more than a lick of paint, but thanks to its location and the work already carried out, the fact that it is currently habitable and already has an EPC C certificate, it is an ideal home for those who want to fully furnish a large house to their own taste in this prime location.
