A Mediterranean private villa with swimming pool, wellness area, cinema room, veranda and garage
In a surprisingly generous and sheltered setting near the Laan van Borgele, surrounded by detached villas and mature greenery, lies this impressive private villa with garage, basement level, swimming pool and a landscaped garden designed by an architect. Originally built in 1977, the property was partly renovated in 2017 and extensively extended and renewed in 2021. This included the extension, the garden, the swimming pool and various high-quality comfort and living features.
Behind the electric entrance gate, a world of its own unfolds: peaceful, stylish and entirely focused on privacy, comfort and outdoor living. The villa has recently been finished to a modern, high-quality standard both inside and out, with great attention to atmosphere and detail.
The architecture and garden design have a distinctive Mediterranean character. Light tones, warm materials, contemporary lighting, bespoke finishes and a strong connection with the outdoors give the villa the ambience of a luxurious holiday retreat. Everything is designed for relaxed living, elegant entertaining and everyday enjoyment.
The plot is fully enclosed and the garden has been professionally landscaped. The sheltered setting is enhanced by existing mature planting, evergreen cork trees and hardy evergreen hedging. This creates a pleasant sense of privacy around the terraces, swimming pool and various outdoor areas.
The experience begins as soon as you enter the property. The entrance hall was recently created and immediately evokes the feel of a boutique hotel, with a stylish bespoke cloakroom area and bench seating. From here, the property opens up into a home that is exceptionally well suited to family life, while also appealing to buyers wishing to combine living with working from home, a practice space, salon or representative reception area.
The villa offers seven rooms, currently arranged with three bedrooms. Thanks to its generous layout, there are excellent possibilities for creating additional bedrooms, for example in the current study, reception room or basement level.
The living areas are modern, warm and comfortable. Smooth wall finishes, stylish flooring, contemporary internal doors, bespoke joinery and an extensive lighting plan provide a calm and luxurious foundation. The living room, dining area and kitchen connect beautifully with outdoor living and the terraces surrounding the property.
In the living room, the large aluminium-framed windows, the roof lantern construction and robust timber beams create an abundance of light, atmosphere and spaciousness. The media wall with integrated gas fireplace forms an elegant focal point and further enhances the feeling of comfort and warmth.
The property has also been modernised in terms of technology and sustainability. The villa is fully insulated and includes a NIBE heat pump, PVT panels/solar panels, a heat recovery ventilation system, full double glazing and underfloor heating on the ground floor and basement level. The integrated solar and heat-resistant Sunblock film by Finstral contributes to additional insulation, privacy and comfort.
Everyday living comfort is further enhanced by a professionally wired KNX home automation system, high-quality audio solutions by Sonos and Bowers & Wilkins, a Bose cinema system, alarm system and Ubiquiti camera system.
Also situated on the ground floor are a study, a reception/meeting room with bespoke cabinetry and seating, and three spacious bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own bathroom and bespoke walk-in dressing room. The two remaining bedrooms share a large luxury bathroom with a double walk-in shower, automatic bidet toilet and bespoke vanity unit with two basins and mirror. The rooflight provides pleasant natural light.
At the rear of the property, a large veranda with open fireplace has been created. This outdoor room is partly enclosed with steel door frames and large glazed sections, allowing you to enjoy outdoor living in comfort even on cooler days. It is a wonderful place for long evenings, relaxed lunches or a glass of wine by the fire.
A particularly special feature of this villa is the basement level. This floor has its own entrance door from the driveway and has been designed for relaxation, wellness and entertainment. Here you will find a luxury bar, lounge, beautifully appointed cinema room, study and additional storage. The bespoke finish to the bar, lounge, cinema room and seating gives this level an exclusive and exceptionally refined appearance.
The Finnish sauna adjoins the fitness room and the luxury bathroom with two-person whirlpool bath. In the fitness room, sliding doors provide direct access to a sunken, secluded terrace. In addition, the property benefits from a fully equipped utility/laundry room, in keeping with the high-quality finish throughout.
The garden surrounding the property forms an essential part of the living experience. The design is Mediterranean, mature and atmospheric, with palm trees, Corten steel, ceramic tiles, level differences, lighting and carefully selected planting. The water feature with waterfall further enhances the relaxed ambience. The swimming pool, with Roman steps, counter-current system, lighting and roller cover, forms the centrepiece of the garden. Around it are terraces, an outdoor shower, an outdoor kitchen and several places to lounge or dine.
Comfort has also been considered outdoors. The grounds are equipped with a sound system, atmospheric lighting, irrigation and practical technical areas for, among other things, the pool installation and storage. The entire setting is designed around privacy, convenience and atmosphere.
To the front of the property there is ample parking on private grounds. The garage is fully insulated and finished almost to the standard of a living space, with underfloor heating, electric roller door, rooflight/lantern, double insulation and a charging point. It is a superb space for housing a cherished car, but equally suitable as a stylish workspace, hobby room or studio. An additional charging point is also available on the exterior grounds.
The location combines tranquillity with accessibility. From this residential setting on the northern side of Deventer, daily amenities, schools, sports facilities and Deventer city centre are all within easy reach. The centre of Deventer is approximately 10 minutes away by bicycle. The railway station, the N348 and the connection towards the A1 are also conveniently located, ensuring excellent access to Apeldoorn, Zwolle, Arnhem, Enschede and the Randstad.
Altogether, this is a private retreat where living, working, wellness and outdoor life come together in a natural and effortless way. Finished to a high standard, sustainably modernised, sheltered and private, and with an atmosphere that evokes a holiday feeling every day.
The secluded setting, the garden, the swimming pool and the quality of finish are best experienced during a viewing. You are warmly invited.
