Living in a wooded oasis within the city!
A particularly charming villa with a veranda, garden house, lots of privacy, and a spacious plot. Located in the most sought-after and luxurious villa district of Apeldoorn, surrounded by mature trees and winding lanes. Welcome to Eikenlaan 2.
Key Highlights:
Living in the exclusive and green villa neighborhood Berg en Bos is truly one of a kind. The district borders directly on the Berg & Bos Nature Park, with cities like Deventer, Arnhem, and Utrecht also nearby. We'll dive into the location a bit more later—first, let’s explore the villa.
Tour of the Property:
You’ll have a total of 184 m² at your disposal, spread across the ground floor, first floor, and the garden house (21.4 m²). We’re pleased to take you on a tour of the property—on paper for now, but if you share our enthusiasm, we’d be happy to show you around in person. Because honestly, this is something you have to experience.
Where you cook, dine, relax, and enjoy.
You enter through a spacious hallway with a built-in wardrobe, a modern toilet with wall-hung closet, and a stylish staircase. To the right is the dining room, featuring an elegant fireplace with a gas insert and custom cabinetry—a perfect spot to enjoy a drink before dinner. There's also a TV connection—ideal for keeping the (grand)kids entertained with a movie while you relax in the living room or entertain guests. The enclosed kitchen and dining area are generously sized and equipped with extensive cabinetry and built-in appliances—a dream for cooking enthusiasts! The spacious living room is notable for its large, semicircular bay window with French doors, which flood the room with natural light. Another characteristic fireplace (this time a wood-burning one) sets the stage for cozy evenings. On the ground floor, there's also a bathroom, currently used as a utility room, complete with washer and dryer hookups. A third bedroom can easily be created on this level, making the home suitable for seniors or those with limited mobility.
Outdoor Living:
The expansive garden features multiple charming seating areas and a spacious veranda of no less than 27 m². It's the perfect place for dining, lounging, or enjoying drinks with family and friends.Thanks to the installed heaters, you can comfortably enjoy this space year-round—even on chilly evenings. The insulated garden house has its own central heating boiler and enjoys ample daylight through double-glazed windows and a skylight. Currently, the right half is set up as a spa area with a sauna, shower cabin, toilet, and washbasin. The other half serves as storage. However, there’s great potential: the entire garden house can be converted into a self-contained living unit—ideal for an au pair, a student, or guests.
Sleeping, Working, and Bathing:
Upstairs, you'll find a landing with a custom-built desk—perfect for working or studying—and built-in storage. In 2008, dormer windows were added to both sides of the house, creating significantly more space and light.The spacious primary bedroom on the left includes a luxurious walk-in closet and practical built-in storage—ideal for all your clothing and accessories. Large windows offer plenty of natural light and a beautiful garden view—right from your bed. For added comfort, air conditioning is also available. The second bedroom is also bright and spacious, with built-in storage.
The bathroom is fully equipped with a bathtub, double vanity, walk-in shower, and a second toilet.
Surroundings:
As mentioned earlier, Apeldoorn is ideally located if you want to enjoy all the good things in life. Dubbed the “green city of the Netherlands,” it features expansive parks, forests, estates, and of course the Veluwe—right in your backyard. Apeldoorn has a lively city center with shops, restaurants, and events, but is more spacious and peaceful than cities like Utrecht or Arnhem. Perfect for those seeking comfort without big-city chaos. Whether you love nature, art, museums, amusement parks (such as Apenheul or Julianatoren), or fine dining—Apeldoorn offers it all, close by.
The Neighborhood: Berg en Bos. The Berg en Bos villa neighborhood is one of the most characteristic and green areas in Apeldoorn. Located on the city’s western side, the area spans about 163 hectares, and over 300 hectares including surrounding forests. It’s home to roughly 2,100 residents. Renowned architects like Gerrit Rietveld, Wildschut, and Apeldoorn locals Henk and Chris Wegerif have contributed to the district’s unique architectural character. The area borders the Veluwe nature and recreation region. Southwest of the neighborhood lies the Orderbos, including Berg & Bos Nature Park. Wander through gardens, admire monumental trees, ponds, the butterfly garden, deer and wild boar enclosures, or climb the watchtower.
