Markt 11

VIDEO PRESENTATION ON CATO TV FOR A QUICK IMPRESSION!

The Oirschot Market is a charming and unique location where living is truly a privilege. Only two properties remain as residential homes, and this exceptional national monument offers you the opportunity to be part of this rarity. Thanks to its "Centrum Bestemming" zoning, you can not only live here but also run a business.

Markt 11, a beautiful national monument from 1650, is steeped in history. The property comes with a detailed history of its past residents and an architectural report from Monumentenwacht Noord-Brabant (2024).

In recent years, substantial investments have been made to preserve the monumental value while seamlessly combining historical charm with contemporary comfort, making it ideal for the whole family.

SUSTAINABILITY
This national monument combines history with energy consumption comparable to a modern family home, holding an energy label C. The authentic windows are equipped with additional inner frames and mostly triple glazing, offering excellent thermal and sound insulation. Furthermore, the bedroom windows and almost all skylights have been replaced with new Velux windows featuring insulated glass.

The outbuilding is fitted with 14 large solar panels. By adding a few more panels, the energy label could easily be upgraded to a B.

GROUND FLOOR
Beyond the entry portal with the meter cupboard, you enter the spacious reception hall, where classical architraves and solid interior doors with smoked glass create an elegant atmosphere. On the left is a cozy TV room, also ideal as a playroom or gaming room for the younger ones.

Past the stately staircase, you find the recently plastered living room with underfloor heating, a charming cast iron wood stove, and French doors opening to the terrace and beautifully landscaped garden.

To the right of the portal is the dining room, a warm and inviting space in soft tones, with a beautiful round window and a cozy gas fireplace that enhances the room's atmosphere. The large window at the front provides not only a lovely view but also strengthens the connection to the lively Market.

This is a wonderful place to gather, whether for a breakfast to start the day or a cozy family dinner. Adjacent, the kitchen continues the open, airy feel, featuring a natural stone countertop, plenty of storage, and modern appliances, including a Quooker tap, Bosch dishwasher (2022), Siemens oven, and a five-burner gas stove with wok burner. This space is ideal for culinary creations or casual cooking moments with friends.

The adjacent utility and laundry room provides practical amenities, such as a handmade stained-glass window, a large pantry with washing machine connections, and a renewed kitchen block with terrazzo countertop and a close-in boiler. The back door leads to the mature and sunny backyard with garden room and outbuilding.

FIRST FLOOR
The authentic hardwood open staircase leads to a bright, stylish landing reminiscent of a boutique hotel. Here, you will find a custom-built wardrobe for extra storage. From the landing, you can access four spacious bedrooms, the bathroom, and the fixed staircase to the second floor. Each bedroom offers space for a double bed and features extra insulated windows for optimal comfort.

The master bedroom at the front overlooks the Market and includes a wardrobe nook and a visible original oak beam, adding extra character. Bedroom 2 features a large wardrobe wall and a window offering a lovely view of the bell tower of Oirschot Basilica.

On the garden side is bedroom 3, flooded with natural light from a large window. Opposite is the spacious bathroom, featuring unique details such as an exposed construction beam covered in moisture-resistant newspapers from 1892. The bathroom includes a whirlpool bath, a glass shower cabin, a floating toilet, a towel radiator, and a wash basin with wall unit.

Bedroom 4, on the side façade, has a double wardrobe. This floor combines history, luxury, and modern living comfort in a unique way.

SECOND FLOOR
The fixed staircase leads to the spacious second floor, which benefits from natural light due to five Velux skylights and an additional roof window. On the bright landing, you will find an infrared sauna and plenty of practical storage under the sloping ceilings.

At the front is bedroom 5, currently used as a home office. This spacious room is equipped with air conditioning, a wardrobe wall, extra storage space, and two Velux skylights with HR++ glass, sun protection, and blackout features. The window in the front façade brings in additional daylight.

Bedroom 6, at the rear, is also spacious and quiet. With ample storage under the roof slope, this room offers plenty of potential. It also houses the central heating combi boiler (Remeha HR, 2018). Thanks to the partially original wooden floors, the room is multifunctionally adaptable, such as for use as a bedroom, home gym, hobby room, or playroom.

ATTIC
From the landing on the second floor, a pull-down ladder leads to the large attic, almost 18 meters long, spanning the entire depth of the house.

PANTRY CELLER
At the top of the fixed cellar stairs in the utility room, a pantry has been created. The spacious cellar ceiling, which also serves as the floor of the dining room, is at head height and features a dormer window. Due to its constant climate, this cellar is particularly suitable for storing supplies and can also serve as a wine cellar, for example.

MULTIFUNCTIONAL OUTBUILDING
This insulated and multifunctional space of almost 70 m² has recently been equipped with new electrical wiring, UTP cables, a sink, and two double French doors with insulated glass. A triple roof window was also previously installed. The former taxi workshop has a paved, sunny terrace with a pergola that provides rain protection at the front.

The large, high, and open space, with storage and attic space, is currently used as a play, game, and party room for the children. This space can easily be converted into a bed & breakfast, apartment, youth center, or home office, combined with barn and storage space.

GARAGE/STORAGE
The double wooden garage doors to the right of the house on the Market lead to a completely covered passage. This was formerly the passageway from the taxi business to the workshop in the outbuilding.

This approximately 15-meter-long space, with about 35 m² of surface area, has been fitted with new skylights in the roof and offers many possibilities. Like the multifunctional outbuilding in the garden, this space can be used as a separate garage with automated garage doors and a bicycle storage area, easily accessible from the Market.

The rear section, equipped with a beautiful new accordion door, can still be used as the current cozy, covered outdoor room.

BACK GARDEN
The beautifully landscaped ornamental and play garden, with irrigation on the southwest, offers complete privacy and tranquility, even during events on the Market. Across the full width of the plot, you will find a harmonious combination of terraces, fruit trees, plants, lawn, and paving.

As evening falls, the garden provides an idyllic setting for relaxation. Evergreen laurel and photinia on stems, together with the recently trained Persian ironwood, create a sheltered and intimate atmosphere. The garden is equipped with a lighting plan with mood lighting that can be easily controlled remotely via an app, making it the perfect place to enjoy a peaceful evening.

LOCATION AND VIEWS
The location of this monumental townhouse is unique, located on the famous Oirschot Market, one of the most beautiful squares in Brabant. The Market is renowned both nationally and internationally for its authentic ambiance, beautiful appearance, and vibrant atmosphere. The large windows offer a lively view of stately trees—including the nearly 150-year-old monumental white horse chestnut—benches, and cobblestones. Surrounding the St. Peter's Basilica and the former town hall, both from the early 16th century, are many shops and restaurants.

OIRSCHOT AND SURROUNDINGS
Oirschot is located in the Brabantse Kempen, between Eindhoven and Tilburg.

The area offers excellent schools, sports clubs, and nature reserves, perfect for outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, or enjoying the countryside.
