We have lived here since 1975. The estate previously belonged to my father-in-law and we instantly fell in love with the area and the garden. Then again, it's a wonderfully beautiful place, so it wasn't very difficult. Paul Schellekens was an architect friend of mine and he charmed us with the plans he drew. It took no time at all for him to design and build the house. We like Paul Schellekens' way of thinking, he is our family architect. The old bricks don't need to be painted - super convenient, durable and low-maintenance in this wooded area.
That the master bedroom bed was positioned in the corner, for example, is also really typical of Paul Schellekens. Moreover, our bedroom is close to the pool, so we can get up and go swimming right away - blissful. The garden is full of valuable, old trees. We have held countless BBQs and parties here. Even our children got married here on the estate, with a tent on the grass, very idyllic. Sometimes we organised sports days with the children: tennis, volleyball, swimming, jumping over the moat with poles... An incredible time! Even when grandchildren came, this proved to be a very rewarding place. Very pleasant sleepovers in the sitting pit, collecting Easter eggs... Unforgettable! The community of Beerse is also very pleasant, with many friendly Kempen people and a fine mentality.
