RESIDENCE DE KARPEN APARTMENT COMPLEX
Residence de Karpen is rightfully one of the most beautiful residential locations in the Netherlands. The apartment complex, designed by architect Van de Pauwert, comprises approximately 2.5 hectares of land including the park-like garden all around. With the right combination of location, architecture, layout, material use, and garden design, the complex delivered in 1989 is an ultimate place to live and recreate, for young and old alike. In this beautiful environment, 34 luxury apartments in the exclusive segment are located.
In addition to optimal privacy, Residence De Karpen aims to provide residents with a pleasant and safe living environment. Residents can make use of various communal facilities such as a heated indoor swimming pool, fitness room, and tennis court. It is also delightful to walk in the garden surrounding the complex.
The best of these apartments, the penthouse, is now available as the ultimate opportunity in the housing market. This spacious penthouse with many marble walls and floors, boasts a whopping 280 square meters of living space and approximately 130 square meters of outdoor space on the east and southwest-facing rooftop terraces.
SUSTAINABILITY
The entire complex has insulated roofs, facades, and floors, plus insulated glass in the aluminum window frames. Each apartment has intermediate spaces to the next homes, ensuring no sound transmission.
To keep out any summer heat, there are awning sunscreens above the rooftop terraces, and the windows have electric screens.
Safety is paramount. The complex with alarm system and strict key management is surrounded by secured fencing in the greenery. The double design gates can only be operated remotely by the caretaker and residents. The same applies to the garage doors in the basement.
RESIDENCE DE KARPEN ENTRANCE
The entrance to the private grounds of the apartment complex is accessible via the double electric wrought iron gates with digital intercom and video phone installation on Javalaan.
The main entrance of the complex itself is accessible via electric sliding doors to the intermediate hall with mailboxes and video phone. Subsequently, there is the high-quality finished central reception hall with caretaker's desk and access to the spacious lounge for communal use.
This penthouse is accessible via the residential reception hall, to the right through the automatic door and the elevator to the fourth floor. The front door of this penthouse is located in the bright inner hall with elevator and staircase; there are no other front doors here, meaning you are entirely private on this floor without fellow residents.
The delivery box is also located here. This box can also be used for separate waste streams collected three times a week by the caretaker.
In storage 1 next to the front door are the mechanical ventilation, the Remeha Aqua hot water supply, the Snoek central vacuum system, the underfloor heating system, and the central heating boiler (Intergas HR) installed. Behind the smoked glass mirror door next to it hides a practical corner cabinet.
RECEPTION HALL
The remarkably spacious reception hall in the apartment immediately impresses thanks to the veined marble, floor-to-ceiling wall finishing combined with marble windowsills, and identical floor finishing. Towards the living wing is a beautiful niche of the same marble, built-in spots, and glass shelves to display art objects. Beyond the smoked glass doors to the living wing is a similar art niche.
Opposite the front door with spy hole is the spacious guest toilet, also entirely executed in marble. There is a floating toilet, glass shelves, marble washbasin unit, and mirror with brass accents. Left of that is the double wardrobe closet with smoked glass mirror sliding doors.
LIVING WING
The double smoked glass doors with custom-made bronze handles on the right in the reception hall lead to the impressively large and bright living wing. Immediately to the left is the dining kitchen. Straight ahead, the room-wide sliding doors are immediately noticeable with sun-shading external screens towards the large southwest-facing rooftop terrace.
To the right is a deep pantry and utility closet with plenty of storage space for terrace necessities. And beyond the space unfolds the immense living and dining room with solid wood parquet flooring in a classic block pattern and various marble wall finishes.
DINING KITCHEN
The white U-shaped kitchen has a deep utility and storage closet with shelves, large windows on two sides, and its own door to the spacious rooftop terrace.
Walls, windowsills, and floors are finished here with the same veined marble that characterizes this penthouse. The cabinets of the white plastic kitchen with brass handles extend to ceiling height on two sides.
The countertop features a white composite worktop with two round sinks and a mixer tap under the large window overlooking the balcony terrace and park garden. Underneath the countertop, creating extra workspace, is the built-in Miele dishwasher.
Opposite is the wall-wide closet wall with plenty of storage space. Built into the wall are the built-in refrigerator, Bosch oven, and Bosch microwave.
The middle section has five tall cabinets above the countertop, including the mechanical ventilation. Below is the deeper cooking area with Atag electric hob with four cooking zones and an extra zone for a large roasting pan. Below are two large pan drawers with cabinets and drawers on either side.
At the marble bar separating the large windows is a beautiful hexagonal glass pillar, where – under the built-in ceiling spotlight – artwork can shine.
Next to this pillar, in the spacious corner by the windows and balcony door, there is ample space for a coffee and breakfast corner.
LIVING AND DINING ROOM
The living and dining room in a Z-shape measures almost 130 square meters, including the music room with pantry. The daylight entry is optimal here thanks to the large window in the side facade and the room-wide glass sliding doors with convector pits in three outer walls.
Optically, the spacious dining and sitting areas are separated by ceiling spots, delineated by marble wall coverings, with the gas fireplace adorned with brass and marble around the corner.
MULTIFUNCTIONAL MUSIC ROOM WITH PANTRY
Adjacent to the living room is a semi-open passage to the balcony door, leading to the east-facing balcony that wraps around the living room. Here is also the multifunctional music room, in semi-open connection with the living room. This space, with two fully glassed facades with convector pits, is suitable as a workspace, library, or piano room.
Conveniently, hidden from view near the balcony door is a full pantry with sink and faucet, refrigerator, glass cabinets, drawers, and cabinets for the sound system.
WORK AND SLEEP WING
From the central entrance hall, there is a kind of open vestibule on the left, followed by work/living room 2. This room features ceiling-high custom-made walnut bookcases, a mosaic hardwood parquet floor in a block pattern combined with marble floor tiles, and two smoked glass sliding doors leading to the master suite. There is plenty of natural light through the room-wide windows with its own door to the rooftop terrace.
Particularly noteworthy is the fully glassed facade, partly slanted and ceiling-high. Furthermore, this spacious work/living room features a beautiful marble fireplace with mirrored mantle, integrated diagonally in the corner of the wall of cabinets. In addition to the marble vestibule, there is also a niche for sound equipment.
Behind the two mirrored sliding doors in the work/living room is the main bedroom 1, with the boudoir room and the luxurious bathroom 1 with dressing room. From the work/living room, the stock and archive room and the 2nd bedroom with 2nd bathroom are also accessible.
In the spacious bedroom 1, there is a custom-made wardrobe around the headboard with spotlights, shelves, and nightstands. Opposite, the smoked glass sliding doors conceal the wall from view, as well as the passage to the adjacent work/living room with the open vestibule. From this bedroom, bathroom 1 and the boudoir room are accessible on one side and the other side.
The passage from the main bedroom with the washbasin cabinets with mirrored doors leads to the particularly large and luxurious bathroom 1, entirely executed in beautifully veined marble, with brass accents, faucets, and accessories. There is a wide marble vanity with two sinks, a three-part mirror wall, and atmospheric lighting. Next to these luxurious sinks is a linen cupboard with a mirrored door and a spacious walk-in shower with a glass door. Next to it is the toilet niche with a floating toilet with a wall panel, and in the corner is an ergonomic bathtub and a bidet.
Beyond the bathtub is the door to the particularly bright and spacious boudoir room with light hardwood floors. This room has ceiling-high, partly slanted windows facing southwest, overlooking the rooftop terrace and the park garden. On the right is the door to the rooftop terrace. This room has a spacious wardrobe with smoked glass sliding doors.
From bathroom 1, through the frosted glass door, the wardrobe closet room at the front can be reached. Custom-made cabinets are made on both sides. Through a passage, the wardrobe room is again connected to bedroom 2.
Bedroom 2, like the wardrobe room, overlooks the front yard and features a custom-made bookcase. Adjacent is a compact, marble bathroom 2 with a sink, a full-width mirror wall, a round walk-in shower with plastic doors, and a toilet.
ROOFTERRACES AND SURROUNDING PARK GARDEN
The apartment has almost 130 square meters of outdoor space on the two rooftop terraces with natural stone floor tiles.
The east and north-facing terrace wraps around the living room on three sides. The beautiful view here is on the treetops and the front yard. The terrace is surrounded on the side and on the side of the front yard by large planter boxes with ample space for shrubs and other plants. There are two water points and drip irrigation in the planters.
The partially covered sun, lounge, and dining terrace adjacent to the dining room and kitchen on the southwest is impressive with over forty square meters. Here too, there are generous plant and shrub borders with water points. The over six-meter-deep section is shielded by the masonry white wall with three windows. The wall blocks both sound and wind. Sun protection is provided by the large awning against the ceiling. This rooftop terrace extends alongside the kitchen, second living room, and two bedrooms on the southwest, with a masonry underpass halfway.
The setting of De Karpen is in a surrounding park and sculpture garden, which is sustainably and meticulously irrigated and maintained. This green oasis offers a completely green view all around and, of course, optimal privacy. The landscape architecture showcases all seasons. The flora is diverse; from azalea garden to maple avenue and from pond with fountain to beech trees over a hundred years old. In the park, there is also the private all-weather tennis court and walking paths.
DOUBLE GARAGE BOXES AND STORAGE IN THE BASEMENT
The penthouse also has plenty of space in the secure, underground parking garage of the residence.
There is a private, lockable double garage box with two parking spaces and two charging points for electric cars. Additionally, there are two storage rooms located next to each other that belong to the penthouse. The various storage spaces together offer approximately 55 square meters of storage possibilities.
The parking garage is accessible via the five elevators in the complex. The enclosed and secure basement has a car wash area and heated ramps, ensuring safety 365 days a year. Guests can easily park in several parking spaces in front of the residence.
LOCATION AND VIEW
The residence is known for its excellent location: opposite the beautiful park around the Karpendonkse Plas and just minutes from the center of Eindhoven with its many cultural attractions, shops, and high-quality restaurants. Major roads are also nearby.
The view is green all around, thanks to the surrounding and perfectly maintained park garden.
A limited number of events are possible at the Karpendonkse Plas and the natural swimming pool De IJzeren Man. In addition, Javalaan is hermetically sealed off to outsiders to prevent disturbances.
