Description

In the charming village of Nijlen, strategically situated between Lier and Herentals. With the village centre and railway station nearby, and the lush greenery of the Kesselse Heide within easy reach.

This stately detached house is a property with character. The authentic architecture, the refined details and the timeless charm make an immediate impression. Diamond cutter Edward Wuyts had the house built in 1933. Today, it has the chance to write a new chapter.

You can tell straight away upon entering that the house has been lovingly looked after over the years. The entrance hall exudes authenticity, with a graceful wooden staircase, elegant mouldings and original doors featuring beautiful stained-glass panes. Each and every one of these elements preserves the soul of the house and evokes the charm of days gone by. A characterful base to refine further entirely to your own taste.

From the entrance hall, you discover the living areas, where a dining room and a cosy sitting area invite you to gather together. The authentic tiled floors, which have been preserved in various rooms, also contribute to the property’s unique character.
At the rear are the kitchen and bathroom, housed in a later extension. Here, the indoors and outdoors blend beautifully: the terrace forms the transition to the pleasant garden. Thanks to the path running alongside the house, the garden is also easily accessible.

There is plenty of space upstairs too. The first floor comprises two spacious bedrooms. The cosy attic, with its characterful sloping roof, offers a further two bedrooms.

A property steeped in history, with authentic charm and exceptional potential. A unique opportunity for anyone looking for a home with a story to tell, and who has the ambition to add their own story to it.

owner speaks out

I really enjoyed making the garden look its best, time and time again, as the seasons changed. I wanted the pride I felt for the house to be reflected outside as well.
Because the charm of a house lies not only in its architecture, but just as much in the garden that surrounds it
