A WORK OF ART YOU CAN LIVE IN
This designer villa is a masterpiece by the renowned Portuguese architect Vasco Vieira, best known for the prestigious Vale do Lobo resort in the Algarve. Nestled amidst lush greenery, on the edge of the woods in the picturesque and exclusive Bosch en Duin, ‘a work of art you can live in’ has been created here.

True connoisseurs will recognise it immediately: this is an exceptionally successful, timeless design of international allure and enduring beauty. A villa such as this would not look out of place in the hills of, say, Beverly Hills or in one of the most exclusive locations in Southern Europe, and it stands as one of the highlights of the already impressive collection of villas for which Bosch en Duin is renowned.

Surrounded by a fantastic, architecturally landscaped park-like garden offering an abundance of privacy, various terraces and walking paths set against a backdrop of centuries-old trees. Fancy a romantic stroll with your loved one? You can simply enjoy that right here in your own garden. This garden creates a magical atmosphere not only during the day but, thanks to its nearly 400 light points, certainly in the evening too. A beautiful contrast: the interplay of light and dark, open yet intimate. From morning to evening, all year round, the garden almost always allows you to enjoy the great outdoors.

This way, life’s simple pleasures are experienced not only indoors, but certainly outdoors too.

A one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

FAIRYTALE GARDEN EXPERIENCE
An Eldorado – according to Van Dale, ‘a paradise, a delightful place, named after Eldorado, a mythical land where money and precious stones are said to lie along the road’. Although the latter may be somewhat of an exaggeration in the case of this property, a stroll through the garden undoubtedly offers a heavenly experience.

The garden was laid out in 2007 by the Belgian landscape architect Kristof Swinnen. In 2023, another section of the garden was redesigned, this time based on a design by the Dutch landscape architect Erwin Stam. He was clearly inspired by the iconic bungalow from Tom Ford’s film ‘A Single Man’ – the famous Lautner House – which has given the front garden a truly cinematic character. Now that’s what I call coming home…

An especially striking feature is the four Pinus Umbrella pines, which enhance the design like natural sculptures. Nowhere is it excessive or over the top; rather, it is understated, as if it had always been that way. That, precisely, is the hallmark of true class.

Once in the back garden, it is not only the natural surroundings and beauty that immediately catch the eye; the high-quality sound system on the terraces also provides a tasteful musical backdrop. Furthermore, there are numerous Wi-Fi hotspots scattered throughout the grounds.

This unrivalled garden, covering a total of no less than 9,420 m², forms an exceptionally tasteful pairing with the truly phenomenal villa itself.
