The Pearl of Balgoij
Living with history, space and grandeur
On a quiet road, hidden in the rural greenery of Balgoij, stands an object that rarely becomes available. A house with a rich history. The former parish house 'De Parel', built in 1914 and designated as a municipal monument, forms an impressive and distinctive whole on a generous plot of 2.990 m².
Standing alone, with free view and surrounded by peace and greenery, this special property offers an exceptional combination of history, space and versatility. A place where the past is tangible, without making concessions to comfort and usability of today.

A building with meaning
At first glance, ‘De Parel’ makes an impression. The stately architecture, the ornamental brickwork and the monumental appearance immediately reveal the original function of the building. Inside, this experience continues: high ceilings, stained-glass rose windows, fireplaces and authentic materials create a warm yet imposing atmosphere.
With a living area of approximately 430 m² and a volume of almost 1.750 m³, this house offers unparalleled space. The layout is generous and well-considered, making the house suitable for a variety of living styles: generous family life, working or practice at home, multi-generational living or a combination of these.

Ground floor - an impressive entrance
Through the covered entrance you enter the house. In the hall, the original floor tiles and characteristic front door immediately catch the eye. From here, the heart of the house unfolds: the central hall.

This impressive space is undoubtedly one of the absolute highlights of the house. The meter-high ceiling, the beautiful stained-glass arch windows and the ornate masonry give the hall a stately grandeur. From here, you have access to the various living and sleeping rooms on the ground floor.

The atmospheric living room exudes character and warmth, with a beautiful fireplace and wooden stove, high ornamental ceilings and lovely light play. Via a wide sliding window, this room is directly connected to the magnificent conservatory, currently used as a playroom and office, with panoramic views of the surrounding greenery.

The living kitchen forms a complete living space in itself: light, spacious and practically equipped with a 6-burner gas stove with oven, dishwasher, Quooker and combi-microwave. Here too, a fireplace with a wood-burning stove adds extra ambience. From the kitchen you can directly reach the outdoor terrace and the garden to the south, allowing the indoor and outdoor areas to seamlessly blend into each other.

In addition, on the ground floor there are multiple bedrooms, bathrooms and ancillary rooms, including a kitchenette with washing facilities, an extra shower room and a separate staircase entrance. This makes living on one floor or a combination of living and working highly possible.

First floor – space and privacy
The first floor offers an exceptional number of rooms, spread over several corridors and levels. Here you will find various royal bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, and practical built-in wardrobes.

The master bedroom at the back is particularly spacious and features a walk-in closet and direct access to a luxurious bathroom with a walk-in shower, toilet, and sink.
At the front and in the side wings there are multiple bedrooms, each with their own character, light exposure and storage space.
In total, the house has five bathrooms/showers, making it extremely suitable for large groups or multifunctional use.

Second floor
The second floor is also fully utilized and offers space for two additional bedrooms with dormer windows. Ideal as guest rooms, hobby room or workspace in complete privacy.

Basement - Annexes
Under the house is a spacious cellar of approximately 9.56 x 4.32 meters, with a multifunctional room, with light from outside, two cellars one of which is equipped with fixed storage space and the cv-installation.

On the plot there are two free-standing outbuildings. The first outbuilding has a cozy canopy with seating area, two spacious storage areas and extra covered storage.

At the back of the garden there is a second outbuilding with an office space and two separate storerooms, all with double doors, also provided with a canopy. Perfect for storage, hobbies or keeping garden materials.

Outdoor Life – peace, space and privacy
The garden is located around the house and has been carefully laid out.
Via the wide drive with decorative gravel, surrounded by borders with mature trees, fixed plants and hedges, you reach the house.
In front there is a large lawn that can also serve as a playing field, bordered by a green hedge.
Directly adjacent to the house is a generously sized terraced area with a view of the pond and the first outbuilding.
The backyard forms a natural continuation of the greenery, offering ample privacy and a serene atmosphere.
