ROMANTIC LIVING IN THE HEART OF THE GOOI

On one of the most beautiful locations in the Gooi in the middle of the 'Golden Triangle', you are offered this characteristic and romantic VILLA with detached multifunctional annexe and spacious carport. "Spice of grace" is written on the striking façade of this sunny house. The beautiful entrance, stained glass in the stairwell and windows with rod division emphasise the character of the villa built in 1939. The villa has been modernised and well maintained with respect for its original character.

The beautifully landscaped and green-lined garden with trees, manicured borders and robust rhododendrons is in a sunny position and offers plenty of privacy. The white villa is situated on a beautiful corner plot of 1,260 m² in a quiet, leafy area on the border of Blaricum and Laren. An ideal location within walking distance of Tafelbergheide and close to schools, shops and arterial roads (A1).

Special plus is the new outbuilding in the same style. This is suitable for home office, informal care or guest accommodation. The villa also has a bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor. Handy for those who want to sleep downstairs or an au-pair. It is a lovely family home, truly a home.
