This detached villa is located in the green Luchen neighbourhood, directly along the Eindhoven Canal, where uninterrupted views and a peaceful residential setting are complemented by the proximity of the centres of Mierlo, Geldrop and Eindhoven.
Built in 2019, the villa is defined by a strong architectural language that is consistently carried from the exterior through to the interior. High ceilings, long sightlines, bespoke finishes, black steel, concrete and timber come together to create a clear and cohesive architectural whole. The impressive entrance hall, generous living spaces and exceptionally designed upper floor give the property its distinctive character.
The same attention to design and quality is evident outdoors.

A stylish wall with an integrated gas fireplace provides a natural division between the living room and dining room. Both spaces retain their own character while remaining visually and functionally connected.
The generous dining room comfortably accommodates a large dining table and provides an inviting setting for entertaining family and friends. Thanks to the expansive windows, the room enjoys a direct connection to both the kitchen and the garden, together with beautiful, unobstructed views.
KITCHEN
The architecture takes centre stage in the kitchen as well. The concrete floor, refined bespoke cabinetry and generous central island come together to create a powerful yet elegant whole.
The generous proportions provide ample space for the central island, with the PITT Cooking units seamlessly integrated into the worktop. The kitchen is equipped with high-quality built-in appliances, including a refrigerator, freezer, Quooker, dishwasher, steam oven and conventional oven. A wine climate cabinet completes the kitchen.

GARDEN / DINING ROOM
Directly adjoining the kitchen is this stylish garden/dining room, which was fitted with generous glazed sliding walls in 2024/2025. This has created an additional living space with a seamless connection to the garden throughout the seasons.
On summer days, the glazed sliding walls can be opened completely, allowing the interior and exterior to flow effortlessly into one another.

Even in winter, this is a wonderfully atmospheric space, with the warmth and ambience of the wood-burning stove adding to its appeal.

SECOND FLOOR - MASTER SUITE
The top floor is, both literally and figuratively, one of the highlights of the villa. It features a generous master suite where architecture and interior design come together in a truly distinctive way. The exposed oak beams, the characteristic lines of the roof structure, the steel internal door (2025), and the combination of concrete, wood and dark accents give the space a distinctive yet understated character.
The generous walk-in shower forms an integral part of the suite. Two shower fittings each have their own thermostat, allowing the water temperature to be adjusted individually. The shower is finished in refined microcement, complementing the robust materialisation of the floor.
The freestanding black bathtub is fully integrated into the sleeping area, creating a striking contrast with the warm oak beams. The concrete floor features both heating and cooling, adding to the comfort of this exceptional private suite.
GARDEN ADN OUTDOOR LIVING
Outside, the same attention to architecture, quality and comfort is equally evident. The professionally landscaped garden, designed with architectural vision and fully adapted to family life in 2024, offers a beautiful combination of greenery, privacy and relaxation.
The garden connects seamlessly with the villa’s living spaces through the kitchen, fully glazed garden/dining room and utility room. Mature planting, multiple terraces and a generous lawn of high-quality artificial grass create an inviting outdoor setting with ample space for the whole family. Children can enjoy a trampoline and play structure, while the generous swimming pool with solar deck features elegant safety fencing and an outdoor shower.
The spacious covered terrace is enclosed on all sides with glass walls (2025), allowing this exceptional outdoor space to be enjoyed comfortably throughout the year, regardless of the season.
At the rear, the garden borders a green ecological zone, offering uninterrupted views across the greenery towards the Eindhoven Canal. The combination of space, privacy, water and greenery makes this garden a particularly beautiful extension of the villa, where indoor and outdoor living come together naturally.
Detached outbuilding / Pool house
This fully insulated detached outbuilding was designed in the same architectural style as the villa and forms an elegant pool house alongside the swimming pool.
Originally used as a practice space, the building is currently arranged as a high-quality private gym. Its generous proportions and versatile layout also make it suitable for a variety of alternative uses. It features a welcoming entrance lobby, floor-to-ceiling windows and generous sliding glass doors, creating a strong connection with the garden and swimming pool. The pool’s technical installation is also housed within the building.

GROUND FLOOR – LIVING ROOM
Light, lighter, lightest. Even on a less sunny day, daylight floods in from the rear façade. With nearly ten meters of ceiling-high glass, residents experience first-hand what it means for indoors and outdoors to merge seamlessly. Here, the garden truly becomes an extension of both the living room and the kitchen.
“We have never lived anywhere with so much natural light. With the wonderful view of the garden, and the seamless underfloor heating and cooling throughout the ground floor, the temperature is always comfortable. This is exactly what we wanted when designing this living space. I love sitting in the sunny corner at the front, or relaxing on the sofa with views across the garden, all while staying connected with family in the home.”
The residents will especially miss the ground floor.
“And the spaciousness. Every room is generous, and everyone has their own private spot – a huge plus when raising children.”
GROUND FLOOR – KITCHEN & UTILITY ROOM
Luxury. Modern. Timeless. Practical. These words best describe the custom-designed kitchen. Add in the fantastic garden view, and cooking here feels like a celebration every day.
The kitchen consists of two parts: the cooking area with induction hob and ‘BORA downdraft system,’ integrated into a mid-century natural stone countertop, and… a phenomenal garden view.
“With a view like this, I never complain while cooking,” says the lady of the house, laughing.
Family and guests often gather at the bar to chat and snack while someone cooks.
Opposite, a wall with built-in appliances, a coffee corner, and ample storage space makes the kitchen not just stylish, but also practical. The adjacent utility room – fitted with floor-to-ceiling bespoke cabinetry – maximizes storage and gives access to the garage, where the heat pump is located.
GROUND FLOOR – BEDROOM & BATHROOM
The spacious bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor make this villa suitable for all life stages. This space is equally ideal as a relaxation room or guest suite. The luxurious bathroom features a walk-in shower, floating toilet, and washbasin, in the same neutral tones as the rest of the home.
GROUND FLOOR – HOME OFFICE
Beyond the kitchen, behind the ten-meter glass wall, lies a quiet home office. A perfect spot to work or study in peace while enjoying the garden views. It could also serve as a hobby room, playroom, or extra guest room – the possibilities are endless.
FIRST FLOOR – BEDROOMS & SECOND BATHROOM
The bespoke staircase in the hallway leads to the first floor, where the light increases with every step.
This floor underwent the most extensive transformation during the renovation. The entire roof was replaced, the layout redesigned, and wide dormers installed, creating over 30 m² of additional space and flooding the floor with daylight.
Now the first floor features three large bedrooms, a laundry room, and a second spacious bathroom. Underfloor heating and cooling add year-round comfort. Each room has its own character, with rear-facing rooms enjoying views of the garden.
Bathroom two, in the same style as the ground-floor bathroom, is spacious and luxurious, with a walk-in rain shower, freestanding bathtub, double washbasins, and a third floating toilet.
GARDEN & OUTDOOR SPACE

“We deliberately created multiple seating areas so we can choose sun or shade, or enjoy the covered terrace by the house, which is perfect even on cooler evenings.”
The lawn makes the garden low-maintenance and child-friendly, offering a safe outdoor play area.

Het Puyven 59
The location of Het Puyven 59 is equally special. With no rear neighbours and no overlooking properties, you can enjoy unobstructed views across the water and greenery along Kikkerpad. At the same time, Nuenen’s lively centre is close by. A school, supermarket, bakery, florist, hairdresser and snack bar are all just a two-minute walk away, together with various other amenities. An ideal combination of privacy and tranquillity, with everything you need close at hand.
The current owners have enjoyed living here for almost ten years. This special place has truly become home, and Nuenen itself has found a lasting place in their hearts. It is now time for their next chapter, creating a rare opportunity to acquire this exceptional home. A property offering this much space, comfort, versatility and such a unique setting rarely comes to the market.
SUSTAINABILITY
At the end of 2025, the property was awarded an A+ energy label. With no fewer than 38 solar panels, a large proportion of the required energy is generated on site. Combined with high-quality insulation and a new Vaillant high-efficiency combi boiler installed in 2024, this makes the home exceptionally energy-efficient.
The heating system is equally efficient. The entire ground floor benefits from underfloor heating, as does the second bathroom on the first floor. Smart LED lighting further contributes to low energy consumption.

FIRST FLOOR
A stylish black spiral staircase in the living room leads to the first floor. Here, the current owners have combined three bedrooms to create one spacious, open room. At the rear, this space offers beautiful views over the water. Currently used as a generous child’s bedroom, it would also work perfectly as a home office, hobby room or as the basis for multiple children’s bedrooms. Thanks to its size, there are plenty of possibilities. The original three-bedroom layout can also easily be reinstated.
This floor also features a second, well-appointed bathroom with a shower, second toilet and washbasin unit, providing all the essentials for comfortable everyday use upstairs.
GARDEN WITH PRIVACY & WELLNESS
The absolute highlight of this home is the beautiful wellness area, completed in 2025 – right in the privacy of your own garden. A wonderful place to fully unwind. The wellness area features an six-person jacuzzi, which can also be enjoyed in comfort beneath the covered terrace. Next to the jacuzzi is an attractive wooden sauna for six people. It is electrically heated and suitable for traditional sauna infusions. After a relaxing sauna session or refreshing soak, the heated outdoor shower provides the perfect finishing touch. A complete private spa for ultimate relaxation at home.
The fully tiled and therefore low-maintenance garden is completely enclosed and offers plenty of privacy. It can be accessed from the kitchen as well as through the gate at the rear. From here, the Kikkerpad footpath leads directly along the water. The spacious garden shed provides ample storage space for garden equipment and the barbecue, as well as a freezer and additional refrigerators, which are available for purchase by the new owner. Perfect for summer days and enjoyable garden parties. On warmer days, the electrically operated awning provides shade at the touch of a button.
AMPLE PARKING

Neighbours know and greet each other, creating a pleasant sense of community. The current owners describe the Nuenen lifestyle perfectly: “You have everything here, but it all feels just a little more relaxed than in the city.”
With schools, shops, childcare and healthcare facilities nearby, the location is also highly practical. Many everyday amenities are literally around the corner. The active residents’ association regularly organises social activities, from summer barbecues to group cycling trips.
At the same time, Het Puyven offers plenty of peace, greenery and space. The open views over the water and surrounding greenery at the rear will remain unobstructed, as no development is planned here. A charming detail: the name ‘Puyven’ means frog pond – a fitting name for this special waterside location where nature, tranquillity and a friendly residential setting come together.
NUENEN & SURROUNDINGS
Nuenen is the kind of place that quickly feels like home, even if your Brabant roots lie elsewhere. Large enough to offer a complete range of amenities, yet with the friendly atmosphere of a village. Here you can enjoy peaceful, green surroundings, with everything you need close by and vibrant Eindhoven within easy reach.
The welcoming village centre offers plenty to enjoy, with markets, festivals, shops and restaurants. Art and culture enthusiasts are equally well catered for, with several galleries, Nuenen’s rich Van Gogh heritage and a local theatre. Families benefit from several primary schools, playgrounds and sports clubs, as well as all the amenities needed for everyday life. Nuenen’s active community life also contributes to its lively and welcoming character.

And for a day in the city, Eindhoven is close by. The city centre is approximately a 15-minute drive away, offering excellent shopping, dining, theatre and concerts. Cultural highlights such as the Van Abbemuseum, Parktheater, Effenaar and Muziekgebouw Eindhoven are also easily accessible.

By 2026, this entire living space will feature new PVC flooring in a stylish herringbone pattern. Combined with the black steel double doors, the sleek stucco, and the high-quality wall finishes, the result is a warm, contemporary, and exceptionally inviting space.
A stylish gas fireplace occupies a central position in the living room, providing both warmth and an inviting focal point. Two sets of double French doors offer direct access to the generous covered terrace and further enhance the connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The terrace forms a natural extension of the living room, creating a comfortable setting for relaxation, entertaining and long evenings spent together, both indoors and outdoors.
OPEN PLAN KITCHEN AND DINING ROOM
The impressive open-plan kitchen has been designed as a fully fledged living space where cooking, dining and relaxing come together. Thanks to its generous proportions, practical dining area and adjoining dining room, the space offers approximately 43 m² and every comfort for both everyday family life and entertaining larger groups of family and friends.
The modern kitchen layout consists of a stylish wall unit and a spacious cooking and sink island with a durable Dekton countertop. High-quality built-in appliances round out the ensemble. The kitchen features an induction cooktop with an integrated range hood (2024) and a Teppanyaki grill, a Quooker faucet (2024) for boiling, chilled, and sparkling water, a dishwasher, a combination microwave (2026), a steam oven (2025), a coffee machine, a refrigerator, and a fridge-freezer (2024).
A stylish bioethanol fireplace further enhances the warm and luxurious character of the interior. The generous layout provides ample space for a large dining table, while double French doors offer direct access to the covered terrace and garden. This creates a natural connection between the indoor and outdoor living areas, making the kitchen and dining room an inviting setting for long dinners and relaxed evenings.
A connecting doorway could be created relatively easily in the rear façade, directly beside the French doors in the dining room. By covering a section of approximately 1.5 metres, a direct internal connection to the annex at the rear could be established.
The annex is currently used as a beauty salon and, thanks to its independent facilities and versatile layout, also offers excellent potential as guest accommodation, an assisted-living suite, a second residence, a home office or another multifunctional space.
STUDY AND LOUNGE
At the front corner of the villa, adjoining both the living room and the open-plan kitchen, is a separate and highly versatile room. During the day, it is used for studying and administrative work, while in the evening it serves as a comfortable television room.
Thanks to its location and well-proportioned dimensions, the room is also ideally suited as a home office, playroom, library, hobby room or relaxing lounge.
FIRST FLOOR
The first floor is accessed via an enclosed staircase and comprises three generously sized bedrooms and two luxurious bathrooms. The high standard of finish found on the ground floor has been consistently continued throughout this level.
The spacious principal bedroom is located at the front of the villa and exudes peace, space and comfort. Large windows provide an abundance of natural light and enhance the open character of the room. The luxurious en-suite bathroom is directly accessible from the bedroom, creating a private and comfortable suite.
This bathroom offers a complete wellness experience within the comfort of your own home. It is fitted with a bathtub, a spacious walk-in shower with rainfall shower, a stylish vanity unit and a Finnish sauna. An exceptional space in which to relax and unwind.
The two additional bedrooms are characterised by their generous dimensions, practical layouts and pleasant natural light. The dormer windows provide additional living space and enhance the sense of openness. Both rooms are ideally suited as children’s or teenagers’ bedrooms, guest rooms or comfortable home offices.
The second bathroom is also fully equipped and features a walk-in shower with rainfall shower and glass screens, a double vanity unit and a wall-mounted toilet.
SECOND FLOOR
The second floor is accessed via a fixed enclosed staircase from the landing. This fully usable additional floor benefits from Velux roof windows, installed in 2026 and fitted with blackout blinds and insect screens.
The floor accommodates a spacious fourth bedroom and also provides ample practical storage space.
On the opposite side of the floor is the laundry and utility room, which houses the connections for the laundry appliances, the central-heating system and the mechanical ventilation system.
MULTIFUNCTIONAL DETACHED ANNEX
Behind the villa stands a detached building that was completely renovated in 2023 to create a high-quality, fully insulated annex. The ground floor offers approximately 57 m² of space and is currently used as a beauty salon.
The annex has its own entrance at the front, a representative reception area, two separate treatment rooms and a toilet. The standard of finish blends seamlessly with that of the villa. Features include PVC flooring in a herringbone pattern, smooth plastered walls and ceilings, and a contemporary, carefully selected range of materials and finishes.
Thanks to its generous proportions, independent facilities and flexible layout, the annex is ideally suited to a wide variety of uses, including a home office or professional practice, guest accommodation, an artist’s studio or an assisted-living suite. With relatively minor alterations, the ground floor could be converted into a comfortable living space with a kitchen, bathroom and bedroom.
The annex has a separate electrical distribution board and its own high-efficiency combination boiler, installed in 2017. A concrete upper floor, currently used for storage, is accessible via a loft ladder. By installing a permanent staircase and roof windows, this level could be converted into an additional bedroom while retaining practical storage space. This could add a further approximately 34 m² of usable living space.
There is also the possibility of creating a direct internal connection between the villa and the annex. This could be achieved by forming an opening in the rear wall of the dining room, beside the French doors.
The annex could therefore be comfortably incorporated into the main villa, creating an exceptionally versatile property that is ideal for dual occupancy, assisted living, working from home or accommodating guests.
GARDEN AND OUTDOOR LIVING
The beautifully landscaped rear garden is approximately 52 metres deep, faces west with a slight southerly orientation and borders a small woodland area. This creates an appealing combination of tranquillity, privacy and a high-quality outdoor living environment.
The generous covered terrace can be accessed directly from both the living room and the open-plan kitchen. It is fitted with atmospheric lighting and infrared heating, making it a comfortable place to relax even on cooler evenings.
The expansive lawn, mature planting, carefully laid decorative paving and integrated irrigation system give the garden a well-maintained and inviting appearance. The many birds and squirrels further enhance the feeling of living in the heart of nature. Thanks to the favourable orientation, the garden offers both sunny and sheltered areas throughout the day.
The heated outdoor swimming pool measures approx.
7.50 x 3.50 metres and is equipped with a heat pump. In 2026, the interior walls of the pool were repainted and a new electrically operated pool cover was installed.
PARKING AND STORAGE
There is ample private parking for several vehicles on the right-hand side of the villa, including an electric-vehicle charging point.
The property also benefits from convenient side access on the left-hand side and a separate bicycle and storage shed. This outbuilding also contains an additional toilet, which is particularly practical when using the garden and swimming pool.
There is also ample public parking available directly in front of the property.
LOCATION AND ACCESSABILITY
This villa on Oudestraat enjoys an exceptionally private and green setting, while the charming centre of Gemert is within walking distance. The location therefore offers a pleasant residential environment with an abundance of privacy, yet remains close to shops, restaurants and everyday amenities.
The characterful village centre, with Gemert Castle as its most prominent landmark, offers a varied selection of shops, specialist retailers, cafés and restaurants. Schools, sports facilities and medical services are also located nearby. Gemert is further distinguished by its rich history, active community life and vibrant traditions, with a wide range of markets, cultural events and festivities taking place throughout the year.
The surrounding countryside is ideal for walking, cycling and outdoor recreation, with nature reserves, picturesque country roads and expansive views all within easy reach. At the same time, Gemert is conveniently situated in relation to the surrounding cities. Helmond can be reached by car in approximately 15 to 20 minutes, Uden in around 20 minutes, Eindhoven in 30 to 35 minutes and ’s-Hertogenbosch in approximately 35 to 40 minutes.
The area is also well served by public transport. Bus services connect Gemert with destinations including Eindhoven, Uden and Helmond. The railway stations in Eindhoven and Helmond provide convenient access to the national rail network.
