Marketed by Signature ListingDistinguished Notary Villa | Exceptional Family HomeA distinguished detached villa offering approximately 408 m² of refined living space, arranged over three generous residential levels and complemented by a self-contained guest residence and heated double garage. Set on an impressive 1,123 m² plot, directly opposite the tranquil grounds of Offem Estate and just a short cycle ride from the North Sea, this exceptional family residence combines elegance, space and privacy with an enviable coastal lifestyle.A Home Filled with Memories“We commissioned the villa ourselves and approached every detail with great care, giving considerable thought to the proportions, layout and comfort of our family home. For many years, it has been a wonderful place for family life, filled with cherished memories of our children and, later, our grandchildren. What we will miss most are the occasions when everyone came together: long evenings around the dining table, family and friends gathering beneath the veranda, and guests staying overnight in the private accommodation above the garage. The villa has always offered an abundance of space, yet it has never lost its warmth. It is a home where people immediately feel at ease. Now that our children have left home, the property has become more than we need. The time has come to entrust this very special place to a new family, who can create their own memories here.”The Noordwijk LifestyleNoordwijk offers an exceptional balance of coastal tranquillity, understated sophistication and everyday convenience. Offemweg 31 enjoys a particularly privileged setting, overlooking the mature greenery of Offem Estate and close to the historic heart of Noordwijk-Binnen.The charming Voorstraat and Lindenplein lead you towards a selection of independent boutiques, specialist shops and delicatessens. For the beach, promenade and dunes, simply take the bicycle. Noordwijk is renowned for its excellent restaurants, atmospheric terraces and stylish beach clubs, alongside a wide range of sporting and recreational facilities. Golf enthusiasts will find the Noordwijkse Golfclub nearby, spectacularly positioned within the surrounding dune landscape.The region is equally attractive for families. Noordwijk offers a broad selection of primary and secondary schools, including international primary school WereldWijs and Northgo College. Rijnlands Lyceum Oegstgeest, offering bilingual pre-university education among its programmes, is approximately 15 minutes away by car. International School Leiden and Leiden University can be reached within approximately 20 minutes.The universities of Amsterdam, The Hague, Delft and Rotterdam are also readily accessible. The Hague and Amsterdam Schiphol Airport are approximately 30 minutes away by car, while central Amsterdam is around 45 minutes away.Lifestyle | A Saturday in NoordwijkA leisurely Saturday begins around the generous dining table in the kitchen-diner, with coffee, breakfast and the whole family together. Later, everyone sets off for the day. The children cycle to their hockey and football clubs, while the parents head into the dunes for a round of golf at the Noordwijkse Golfclub. By lunchtime, the family reconvenes at Branding Beach Club. The terrace is alive with conversation and music, the sea stretches out before you and the sand is beneath your feet. Lunch turns effortlessly into an afternoon by the coast. Later that afternoon, friends arrive from Amsterdam. The barbecue is lit and the veranda becomes the natural gathering place for a relaxed evening together. After dinner, the children disappear downstairs to watch a film or unwind, while the adults linger over drinks and conversation. There is no need to make the journey back to Amsterdam: the private guest residence above the garage offers a comfortable retreat for overnight guests. This is coastal living at its most effortless.The ResidenceAccessed through an electrically operated entrance gate with video intercom, the property immediately conveys a sense of privacy and distinction.

A hidden country estate by the waterSome houses impress with their square footage. Others with their architecture. And very occasionally, there is a place where the location, above all, tells the story. Hyacintenlaan 9 undoubtedly belongs to that last category.Tucked away in the greenery, at the end of a secluded driveway and almost completely hidden from view, this detached villa sits on an exceptionally generous plot. A place where mature trees, water, lawns, and an almost park-like garden combine to create an atmosphere reminiscent of a private country estate rather than living in the heart of the Randstad.Whoever drives through the gate here leaves the world behind for a moment.Freedom, greenery, and waterThe plot is the great quality of this special place to live. A lush garden stretches around the villa, featuring an impressive variety of trees and plants. The different parts of the garden each have their own character: open lawn, sheltered terraces, woodland-like vegetation, and long sightlines through the greenery.And then there is the water. The location by the water lends the whole a nearly serene quality. Only from the air does the true uniqueness of the combination of garden, trees, and surrounding water become apparent. Here, you experience a degree of privacy and space that is rarely available in Warmond and the surrounding region. From here, you can reach the vast Kagerplassen or the monumental canals of Leiden city center within a few minutes by boat.The spacious driveway and various outbuildings reinforce the sense of an independent estate. There is ample room for cars, hobbies, or a further development tailored to the wishes of a new owner.A villa with character and possibilitiesThe house itself has a warm, distinctive appearance. The wooden facades, substantial roof, and large windows blend naturally with the green surroundings. It is not a house that tries to explicitly distinguish itself from its landscape; on the contrary, it seems to be part of it.Inside, the ground floor offers a surprisingly versatile layout. The living room, featuring the iconic Boley fireplace specially designed for this home, and the dining room form the heart of the house, while the classic Poggenpohl kitchen, utility room, and storage are practically situated. Particularly attractive is the presence of a studio/workspace: a pleasant spot for those working from home, painting, designing, or simply needing their own domain.Additionally, a bedroom with bathroom is located on the ground floor. This makes the villa perfectly suited for single-level living, a guest house, or a more independent private suite.On the upper floor, there are multiple bedrooms, a second bathroom, and the landing. The layout is functional yet offers ample opportunities for a contemporary reinterpretation.Not prescribing, but invitingHyacintenlaan 9 is pre-eminently a home for a buyer who looks beyond the existing situation. The villa possesses character and charm, but above all, this place has something that is difficult to create: space, mature greenery, privacy, and an exceptional location on the water. This makes the whole setting interesting for those who wish to modernize their existing home while respecting its character, but equally so for someone dreaming of a more radical architectural transformation. A spacious eat-in kitchen opening onto the garden, larger glass sections, a stronger connection between inside and outside, a wellness or guest function in an outbuilding: the setting invites you to realize a very personal living concept here.Precisely in the higher segment, that is perhaps the greatest luxury: not having to choose a home that has already been designed for someone else, but having an exceptional place where one's own vision can become reality.Living in WarmondWarmond has an appeal that is difficult to capture in a single word. Village-like and green, yet at the same time excellently connected to the surrounding cities and amenities. The water-rich landscape and the proximity of the Kagerplassen give the area a distinct recreational character, while Leiden and the rest of the Randstad are within easy reach. Hyacintenlaan 9 adds a rare dimension to this: the feeling of truly living outdoors, without having to forgo the accessibility that daily life demands.A place you must experiencePhotos show the greenery. A floor plan displays the space. An aerial photo clarifies the unique location. But none of them fully captures what sets this place apart.The silence as you drive up the driveway. The filtered light between the mature trees. The seclusion of the garden. The water that feels close by everywhere. And above all: the freedom to create a living environment here that is entirely your own.Hyacintenlaan 9 is no ordinary villa. It is a country estate in the making – a rare private domain where nature, water, and quality of life come together.A special opportunity for those seeking not just a house, but above all a place that is irreplaceable.

Exclusive turn-key villa on the MiddelpolderSemi-detached villa on a 373 m² plot, directly adjoining the Middelpolder nature reserve.
