Au Cœur De L'un Des Plus Beaux Villages Des Pays Bas, Bloemendaal

Watch the drone film to get a clear impression of the building plot.

In the heart of one of the most beautiful villages in the Netherlands, an exceptional building plot is being offered for sale. Situated on the North Holland coast, Bloemendaal has for generations been one of the country’s most desirable places to live. The beach and dunes are an integral part of everyday life, while excellent schools, renowned hockey, tennis and golf clubs, the Caprera Open-Air Theatre and a lively village centre provide an exceptionally complete living environment. Haarlem is just a short cycle ride away, while Amsterdam and Schiphol Airport can be reached in approximately twenty minutes.

When the Hartenlust country estate was divided into plots to create a villa park around 1900, this site formed, both literally and figuratively, its highest point: Hoog Hartenlust. This remarkable location, a gently undulating dune plot of more than 4,300 m², is now becoming available once again.

A private driveway, flanked by mature trees, leads to the highest point of the grounds. The south-facing plot is surrounded by an impressive collection of beech, oak, acacia, spruce, magnolia, rhododendron and lime trees. Together, they create an exceptional sense of tranquillity, privacy and seclusion, while the landscape naturally unfolds around the future villa.

It is precisely this contrast that makes Het Bovenste Bos so special. Nowhere else in Bloemendaal will you experience such a sense of space, peace and privacy, while the village’s characteristic high street is only a few steps away. Excellent restaurants, refined specialist shops, everyday amenities and a welcoming local pub are quite literally around the corner.

On this exceptional dune-top site, there is scope to create a villa of more than 500 m², potentially including a swimming pool. This could take the form of a contemporary family home or a classical villa inspired by Bloemendaal’s characteristic fin-de-siècle architecture.

To illustrate the possibilities offered by Het Bovenste Bos, a number of visualisations and design studies have been prepared. These provide an impression of what could be created in this remarkable setting and are intended solely as inspiration. They do not form part of the offering. The final development possibilities will be determined by the applicable environmental plan.

Some locations derive their value from what already stands there. Others from what they make possible. Het Bovenste Bos belongs to the latter, exceptionally rare category.

A place like this seldom comes to the market.
