Exclusive Castle Villa in Cottage Style.

In a picturesque location in Kortenberg, between the vibrant city of Leuven and cosmopolitan Brussels, lies this breathtaking castle villa, Villa Schaar. Built in 1910 in cottage style, this prestigious property combines undeniable charm and historical significance with exceptional potential for various purposes. Whether you are looking for a stately residence with a lush garden or a distinctive office space that stands out, this property provides the perfect setting. The villa is situated on a generous plot of 26a 17ca and is part of the protected heritage site ‘Ensemble of Villas.’ This designation not only adds historical value but also offers an exemption from certain renovation requirements for residential buildings that came into effect on January 1, 2023. For properties listed as architectural heritage, like this one, there is no mandatory renovation for residential purposes due to its protected status. Upon entering, you are immediately embraced by the rich history and authentic features. The entrance hall, adorned with a mosaic floor, leads to a 58m² living room with a cozy fireplace. The dining room, also with a mosaic floor, complements the fully equipped kitchen and offers an elegant space for refined dining. Additional rooms, including a TV room, office, and playroom, provide various opportunities for both private and professional use. The upper floors host seven spacious bedrooms, each with classic parquet floors and ample natural light. The bathroom on the second floor, complete with a balcony, provides a serene space to unwind, while the attic offers untapped potential for creative use. What truly sets this villa apart is the garden. The beautifully landscaped grounds, featuring a combination of native and exotic trees, create a tranquil park-like setting, ideal for clients and employees alike. It is a place of peace and inspiration, a rare luxury in commercial properties. With a usable floor area of 442m² spread across three floors, a basement with fitness and recreational spaces, and parking for at least four vehicles, this villa is perfectly suited for both living and working. It is heated by a Vaillant boiler (2016), and a mix of single and double glazing provides the necessary comfort.
