Looking for a spacious house with character and numerous possibilities? Then this open construction on the Grote Baan 376 in Houthalen-Helchteren is absolutely worth a visit. This former post house combines a charming look with a surprisingly spacious living volume, a beautiful garden and a layout that is perfect for large families, self-employed persons or who are looking for a kangaroo house.

The house was originally built in 1961 but underwent a thorough renovation in the 1990s which made the house in excellent condition. In 2012 the house was refurbished with a roofed façade, refurbished zincwork and sleeve wall insulation. Moreover, in 2013, a gas installation was switched. With a living area of 238 m2, this property offers a lot of space and comfort for its future residents.

When entering the property, the versatile layout immediately stands out. Thanks to its past as a post office, the property has two separate entrances. Next to the private entrance there is a second entrance that gives direct access to a separate space of approximately 18 m2. This room is ideal as practice, office, hobby room or reception room for an independent activity. Then there is another hall with guest toilet.

From the central hall you reach the living areas as well as a separate desk space. The living room of about 32 m2 together with the kitchen and porch forms a very pleasant living environment with lots of light. The living room and kitchen are directed towards the garden which flows inside and outside nicely together. The large kitchen of about 16 m2 offers sufficient space to cook, table and come together. The L-shaped arrangement of space creates an open and airy whole in which family life takes place effortlessly. A veranda, in the extension of the living space, subsequently provides an extra connection to the garden. Here you enjoy a beautiful view of the plot and a pleasant light during the day.

On the first floor there are no less than five fully equipped bedrooms. With areas of about 20 m2, 19 m2, 18.5 m2, 14 m2 and 13 m2, each family member has sufficient space and privacy. There is also a bathroom and a spacious landing. This central space offers additional potential. Think of a reading corner, play area, desk or even an additional room if desired. The floor consequently feels exceptionally spacious and flexible.

Storage space is also considered. The house is completely under cellar with an impressive basement area of approximately 120 m2. This offers space for storage, laundry, workshop, hobby room or technical installations. In addition, full undertelling makes it easier to achieve future modifications or extensions of pipes. Outside the house also has a carport.

The plot of 983 m2 offers a very pleasant outdoor environment where peace and space are central. Here you can enjoy the morning sun on the terrace and a spacious garden where children can play freely or where garden lovers can work out their ideas. Despite its location on the Grote Baan the noise in the house and garden is surprisingly limited. A visit on site often convinces immediately! In the future, the North-South project will also ensure a thorough redesign of the environment, with more green, safe cycling and hiking connections and limited transit traffic. That makes this location even more attractive in the long run.

The combination of the former post office, the separate entrance and the many rooms available makes this house particularly interesting for self-employed, liberal professions or families wishing to integrate a care home. Thanks to the flexible layout, different living and working needs can be perfectly combined under one roof.

The location is an additional asset. Schools and public transport are just 120 metres from the property. Shops are about 400 meters away and restaurants can be reached after 200 meters. For relaxation you only have to take 2 kilometres. Also the accessibility is excellent with a connection to the highway about 4.6 kilometers. Next to the house there is also a public path that provides a convenient connection to the Kerkstraat, ideal for cyclists and pedestrians who want to move easily through the area. During the work on the North-South it will also be accessible by car so that your property remains easily accessible.

This spacious and well-kept open construction offers a unique combination of living comfort, space and possibilities. With five bedrooms, a huge basement, a large garden and a versatile side area for self-employed or kangaroo living, this is a property with exceptional potential.
