On the impressive Bredaseweg, hidden behind mature trees and a long private driveway, lies one of those rare homes that can hardly be compared to anything else. Not a standard villa, nor a property that seeks to impress merely through size or luxury, but a residence with history, character, and an almost tangible sense of tranquility.This impressive country estate was designed by architect Jan Rebel, renowned for his distinctive villas commissioned by Tilburg’s industrialist families. His signature style is still visible throughout. The flowing rooflines, warm orange-red brickwork, tall chimneys, bay windows, refined timber entrance features, and the almost organic harmony between house and landscape create an appearance that is rarely built today.The residence is set on a magnificent park-like plot of over 6,200 m², entirely enclosed by mature greenery. The moment the gates close behind you, the outside world seems to fade almost instantly into the background. What remains are the rustling of trees, long sightlines across the lawns, and an exceptional sense of privacy.What immediately stands out is how naturally the architecture blends into the landscape. Nearly every room maintains a connection with the outdoors. Large windows quite literally draw the greenery inside, filling the home with light, serenity, and uninterrupted views.Inside, the original character has been preserved with great respect, while the property has also undergone a thorough renovation and been adapted to meet contemporary standards of comfort. Not a sterile renovation, but a carefully balanced combination of authenticity and modern luxury.The impressive central hall with mezzanine and bespoke staircase forms the heart of the home. A space that offers grandeur without ever feeling distant or formal. From here, the various living areas connect effortlessly. The living room is both spacious and inviting, featuring beautiful sightlines towards the gardens, multiple fireplaces, and an atmosphere more reminiscent of an English country house than a traditional villa.The kitchen-diner, centred around a large Bulthaup cooking island, provides a wonderful space for both daily living and entertaining guests. French doors connect the kitchen directly to the terraces and surrounding gardens.Particularly noteworthy is the wellness wing with its indoor swimming pool, sauna, and steam facilities. This area offers every opportunity to create a luxurious private spa at home, while the expansive glass façades provide a beautiful connection with the surrounding greenery. In addition, the estate includes a striking modern pavilion that forms a sophisticated contrast with the architecture of the original house and lends itself perfectly as an atelier, workspace, lounge, or guest accommodation.With approximately 806 m² of living space, seven bedrooms, three bathrooms, multiple living and working areas, several basement rooms, a wine cellar, and a fully functional second floor, the home offers a rare degree of flexibility.The master suite is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the property. Its characteristic curved façade, bespoke cabinetry, fireplace, and luxurious bathroom create an ambiance with an almost boutique-hotel allure.Outside, the setting is equally impressive. Mature trees, rhododendrons, ornamental ponds, winding pathways, and sun-drenched terraces create a park-like environment that seems to evolve beautifully with the changing seasons. A place where silence and space can still truly be experienced.And all of this within close proximity to Tilburg city centre, the Oude Warande, various schools and universities, and the main roads towards Breda, Eindhoven, and ’s-Hertogenbosch.Bredaseweg 389 is a home for true connoisseurs. For those who recognise architecture. Who appreciate the value of a residence with soul, history, and an exceptional location. A country estate that does not demand attention, but instead gradually reveals itself — and once experienced, is difficult to let go.

Estate HoogenhuizenThere are places you do not simply visit, but arrive at.Estate Hoogenhuizen is one of those places. On the edge of Moergestel, hidden behind mature greenery and reached via a bridge with a monumental entrance gate, lies a historic estate of a scale and individuality that has become exceptionally rare in Brabant.At the heart of the estate stands the main residence with its coach house, set on a secluded plot of approximately one hectare, entirely encircled by a moat. Within these grounds, an almost classical country estate atmosphere emerges: the driveway, bridge, gate, manor house, coach house and park-like gardens together create a world of their own. Private, stately and sheltered, yet surprisingly close to the village centre of Moergestel.A historic country estate where the exterior already speaks for itself, while the next owner is given the opportunity to completely reimagine the interior.A Manor House with History, Presence and Future PotentialThe villa dates back to 1889 and was built in an eclectic architectural style. The façades, masonry, tall windows, roof structure and original proportions provide the property with that effortless grandeur that cannot be created, only preserved. Externally, the main residence is presented in a well-maintained and representative condition. The impression upon arrival is that of a true country estate: monumental, understated and possessing a grandeur that never feels forced.Internally, however, the residence calls for a new vision. The layout, kitchen, bathrooms, technical installations, paintwork and finishes are dated and require full modernisation to a standard befitting a property of this calibre. While this is no small undertaking, it is equally the opportunity. The foundations are all in place: volume, history, scale, natural light, sightlines and a spatial structure that lends itself perfectly to contemporary living.The residence currently offers six bedrooms, with possibilities for further expansion and reconfiguration. Those able to look beyond the current state will not only see what the property is today, but what it could become: a country residence combining historic elegance with modern comfort. Think generous suites, luxurious bathrooms, an expansive family kitchen, office and guest accommodation, and a more open connection between the living spaces, gardens and surrounding parkland.Coach House: Full of Character and PossibilitiesThe large detached coach house forms an integral part of the estate ensemble. Externally it is in good condition and currently serves perfectly as garaging for approximately three cars, complemented by a workshop and storage loft. Practical, spacious and entirely fitting for estate living.At the same time, this coach house offers exceptional potential. Subject to the applicable public regulations, monument approvals and any required permits, it may be possible to convert all or part of the building into an elegant ancillary residence or pre-care accommodation, artist’s studio, office, guesthouse or independent home workspace. In this way, the coach house can evolve alongside the future owner’s lifestyle and needs.Park-Like Gardens Within the MoatInside the moat lies a beautiful park-like garden with mature trees, established greenery and the atmosphere found only on historic country estates. The grounds feel both intimate and expansive at the same time. From the house, the views are not of neighbouring properties, but of greenery, sky, water, tree trunks and the changing seasons. It is a place for long lunches in the garden, quiet evenings, children disappearing among the trees, guests arriving through the gate and the daily pleasure of living somewhere steeped in history.Meadows, Stables and Equestrian PossibilitiesBeyond the moat, the estate extends into expansive meadows, giving the property far greater significance than simply a villa with gardens. Here lies the opportunity to keep horses at home, create a small private country estate or manage the land in a more natural and extensive way.The existing stable complex does require attention. Its condition is poor and future use will likely require complete modernisation or redevelopment. For equestrian enthusiasts, however, this presents the opportunity to create stable facilities entirely to their own standards and future requirements. Those without a need for private horse facilities or active land management may explore leasing the meadows to third parties. In this way, ownership and control remain intact, while the grounds require less day-to-day maintenance. Another possibility may be redevelopment into garages, recreational facilities, staff accommodation or guest lodgings.Who This Estate Is Meant ForHoogenhuizen is not intended for someone simply seeking a turnkey villa. This is an estate for a buyer who recognises the value of location, history, scale and individuality, and who is prepared to shape the interior according to their own vision. The reward is considerable: a country estate with a strong monumental ensemble, a secluded principal courtyard, a highly usable coach house, park-like grounds, extensive meadows and the opportunity to create a truly personal family estate.Here, one does not simply purchase four walls. One acquires a gate, a bridge, a moat, a house with history, space for horses or tranquillity, and above all: the freedom to add a new chapter to Hoogenhuizen’s story.Key FeaturesHistoric Estate Hoogenhuizen on the edge of Moergestel.Main residence, coach house, entrance gate and bridge forming a powerful monumental ensemble.Secluded principal grounds of approximately 1 hectare, entirely surrounded by a moat.Total landholding of approximately 81,480 m² / 8.148 hectares according to cadastral records.Main residence externally representative; interior requires complete modernisation.Currently six bedrooms with opportunities for reconfiguration and expansion.Large detached coach house with space for approximately three cars, workshop and storage loft.Coach house potentially suitable for ancillary accommodation, pre-care living, studio, office or guest accommodation, subject to permits and monument approvals.Park-like gardens with mature trees within the moat.Extensive meadows and stable buildings outside the moat; ideal for private equestrian use or extensive land management/leasing.Registered NSW estate.
