COUNTRY HOUSE ‘DE BEUK’ – CHARACTERFUL LIVING IN AN EXCEPTIONAL GREEN SETTING In a beautiful and sheltered location in Bilthoven stands ‘De Beuk’, a unique and characterful country house dating from 1939, designed in the English country-house style. Its striking, deep thatched roof, tapered chimneys and charming shutters give the property an elegant yet welcoming appearance. Inside, the original character is effortlessly combined with contemporary comfort. The arched front door, herringbone parquet flooring with border detailing, exposed timber beams and generous entrance hall with its impressive double-height void and original staircase all reflect exceptional craftsmanship and form the stylish heart of the house. SPACE, LIGHT AND CONNECTION With a living area of approximately 450 sq m, ‘De Beuk’ offers an exceptional sense of space. The living room, dining room and kitchen connect naturally with one another. Glazed doors with traditional glazing bars allow the rooms to be closed off when desired, without compromising the feeling of light and openness. The house offers no fewer than five generously proportioned bedrooms and a spacious attic floor, ideally suited as a playroom, lounge area or home cinema. The separate guest and wellness wing provides a wealth of possibilities for guests, an au pair, fitness or relaxation. A GARDEN OF DISTINCTION The beautifully landscaped and sunny garden, designed by renowned landscape architect Copijn, surrounds the house with tranquillity, privacy and mature greenery. The plot of approximately 2,415 sq m has been designed to be surprisingly easy to maintain, with lawns, characterful trees, manicured hedges and atmospheric terraces. The swimming pool with covered veranda forms a wonderfully private focal point for long summer days spent with family and friends. LIVING SURROUNDED BY NATURE The country house is within walking distance of the Panbos woodland and the Houdringe and Beerschoten estates. At the same time, schools, shops, sports facilities and Bilthoven railway station are all within easy reach. The 18-hole course of Utrechtse Golfclub De Pan is also exceptionally close by. Utrecht, Amersfoort and Hilversum are easily accessible. ARCHITECT P.C. van Uchelen (1898–1956) designed numerous villas, country houses and bungalows, particularly in Het Gooi, Bloemendaal and Wassenaar. His architectural style is often described as romantic and rural, influenced by prominent contemporaries of his time. Country House ‘De Beuk’ is more than an elegant residence. It is a warm and timeless family home where architecture, nature and modern comfort come together in a truly special way. A unique place with the potential to remain a cherished family home for generations.
