Stripped-back modernism in R. Vanhoof’s architect-designed home Sint-Willebrordusstraat 67, 2400 Mol

—Ref. 7680071

Tucked away amongst the fields of Ezaart, close to Het Grote Netewoud nature reserve, this unique home combines nature, privacy and easy access to shops and amenities.

The house was designed in 1970 by Roger Vanhoof for himself and his family. Vanhoof was known for his modernist and brutalist style, inspired by Le Corbusier. In 2024, the house underwent a thorough renovation with respect for the original design: a newly insulated roof, updated electrical systems, new curtains and carpets, and a refurbished kitchen, bathroom and terrace. Thanks to these improvements, the property now boasts a favourable EPC rating.

On the ground floor is a spacious entrance hall with a spiral staircase. To the left is the former architect’s office, comprising two office spaces, large windows, a view of the garden and a separate entrance — ideal for a practice or freelance profession. There is also a dry, heated basement living area, a laundry room and a storage room with access to the garden.

The living area on the first floor benefits from plenty of light thanks to large windows and a beautiful view over the fields. The refurbished kitchen, featuring Kewlox cabinets and high-quality appliances, leads to a practical utility room. Sliding doors provide access to the spacious terrace and the fully enclosed garden. There is also a stylish bathroom with reused original tiles and the potential for four bedrooms. Currently, the east wing comprises a bedroom with a dressing room and a 34 m² double bedroom with a view of the Ezaart mill.
