Pentislaan 1 2111 Ac Aerdenhout

An Exceptional Family Villa of Timeless Elegance
This distinguished and highly characterful detached villa, complete with a detached garage, is situated on the leafy and tranquil Pentislaan, surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens. Designed by renowned architect J. A. G. van der Steur and built around 1905, this remarkable residence displays the rich architectural features associated with late 19th-century Romantic architecture. Its unique design and outstanding level of preservation make it one of the most beautiful villas in the area.
The exterior, with its white rendered façades and red brick detailing, is complemented by an equally impressive interior featuring original tiled floors, traditional sash windows with glazing bars, soaring beamed ceilings and beautifully crafted woodwork throughout. Combined with the abundance of natural light and the warm, elegant finishes, these authentic details create an exceptional family home full of charm and atmosphere.
Offering approximately 295 m² of living space, the villa provides six generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it perfectly suited for family living.
The welcoming central entrance hall, with its elegant brick arches, glazed wall tiles and original black-and-white tiled flooring, forms the heart of the house. The living areas, including the drawing room and conservatory, are located on the sunny south side, while the spacious family kitchen occupies the west wing.
The villa is surrounded by an exceptionally beautiful garden with several inviting terraces, each offering delightful views across the mature grounds. At the front, the sweeping circular driveway creates a grand approach and provides ample parking.
Adjacent to the house is a substantial detached brick garage with a pitched roof. Subject to the necessary permissions, this building could easily be connected to the main house, offering exciting possibilities for an au pair suite, home office, studio, guest accommodation or additional family space. Behind the garage is a separate garden shed.
The location is equally impressive. Situated on the edge of Aerdenhout, close to the dunes and the beach, the property enjoys the perfect balance of peace and convenience. Nature reserves, excellent schools, sports facilities, shops and the railway station are all within easy reach.

The entrance immediately sets the tone for this remarkable home. Through the authentic vestibule, finished with original wall tiles, you enter the spacious reception hall. At the end of the hall are the guest cloakroom and access to one of the two full-height cellars.
The hall itself is a striking architectural feature, distinguished by elegant arched openings finished with glazed brickwork and large windows that flood the space with natural light.

The conservatory retains its original tiled floor, traditional glazing bars and French doors opening directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
