HISTORY

Gagelstraat 107, together with Gagelstraat 109 and Willemstraat 108, is housed in the former Gomarus cigar factory (commissioned in 1902) by Norbert van Reuth. This factory was operational from 1903 to 1934. This municipal monument is a rare example of the industrialization of Eindhoven.

The design and location are characteristic. The arched windows, segmental arches above windows and doors, the mansard roof with the distinctive masonry in dentil style underneath are particularly beautiful.

The cigar industry dominated the Eindhoven economy in the second half of the nineteenth century, and just before the turn of the century, more than a fifth of the nearly five thousand inhabitants earned their livelihood from it.

Despite the rise of Philips and the resulting increase in labor costs, the sector managed to maintain itself fairly well in the following decades, although a concentration process occurred at the expense of small entrepreneurs. Moreover, the cigar industry spread southwards over the Kempen region to places like Valkenswaard and Bergeijk. Particularly in Valkenswaard, there were an estimated sixty cigar factories, alongside hundreds of people active in home-based industry.

The best-known entrepreneur was Hendrik Kersten, founder of the cigar brand Willem II. In the wake of the cigar industry, supply companies for paper, matches (Mennen & Kuenen, 1870), and boxes (Picus, 1883) also developed.

GROUND FLOOR LAYOUT

The impressive entrance hall with a large atrium, meter cupboard, and bicycle storage stands out for its sturdy appearance, unique daylight, and stunning height. Behind it lies a practical utility room with washing machine connections under an original vaulted ceiling.

The heart of this loft home is the spacious living-dining kitchen of over 50 m² with a two-sided tunnel gas fireplace. The original ceiling beams add extra charm. The adjoining sitting room with workspace overlooks the sunny city garden and has its own door leading to the parking space.

The cozy custom kitchen (2019) with cast floor, ample storage space, and composite countertops revolves around the immense island with seating for the wall unit with built-in cabinets. This includes a brass sink, tap, and four PITT gas burners, with a designer hood with lighting above. There is plenty of space for a large dining table. The kitchen is fully equipped with a steam oven, oven, refrigerator, drawer freezer, and dishwasher (2023).

FIRST FLOOR

The custom-made landing staircase of oak and steel is a real eye-catcher in the house. The balustrade can optionally be equipped with glass panels. A lift installation is also possible in the center of this immense staircase.

On landing 1, there is a luxurious guest toilet with a fountain. The living room with impressive height and authentic brick is atmospherically and stylishly restored.

Adjacent is the spacious bedroom/office 1 (currently used as the master bedroom) with a glass wall and original brick wall, equipped with a custom wardrobe wall with built-in washbasin. This room is also ideal as a spacious home office with a kitchenette. A private second bathroom can easily be realized here.

SECOND FLOOR

Together with the top floor, this is the domain of the children. On the spacious landing 2, there is a separate toilet with washbasin connection. Additionally, the spacious bathroom (2019) can be found here, complete with two washbasin units, a bathtub, and a fine rain shower. There is an extra cupboard for towels, and underfloor heating is applied.

On both sides of the bathroom are two large bedrooms and sitting rooms. These rooms are wonderfully light thanks to the Velux windows in the mansard roof. What also stands out are the beautiful roof beam constructions that remain visible, giving the rooms a unique and charming appearance. This makes this floor not only functional but also very atmospheric and attractive for children.

THIRD FLOOR

On the compact landing 3 with a round window is a spacious 4th bedroom or office. This room is equipped with no fewer than eight large Velux skylights with insulated glass and blackout roller blinds. At the back, you will find the technical room with the central heating combi boiler (Vaillant HR 2008) and the Stork Air ventilation system with heat recovery.

On the south side, the balustrade provides a mezzanine and an open connection to bedroom 2. For optimal privacy and preservation of daylight, a glass wall can be placed here. This spacious room at the top of the house is perfect as a bedroom-sitting room, home gym, game room, or home office.

OUTDOOR SPACE AND PRIVATE PARKING

This loft villa features a sunny city garden of over 30 m² on the south, perfect for sunny afternoons. With a private back entrance to the private parking space on Willemstraat, there is plenty of space for a drink and dining terrace. The garden is equipped with lighting and sockets for added convenience.

The owners rent an additional parking space in the garage under Hoog Gagel and have options to park on Gagelstraat itself with a municipal parking permit.

LOCATION AND VIEW

Orthenstraat is an atmospheric, remarkably quiet one-way street, free from bus traffic in the historic city center. Residents enjoy city vibrancy without the hassle. Trendy Uilenburg is within walking distance, and the Het Bossche Broek nature reserve is close at hand.

3. Indoor Parking
The car lift is a surprising eye-catcher. The system allows for indoor parking for two cars, unique in the city center. Bonus: it’s not necessary to move one car outside to make room for the other.

4. Multifunctional Basement
The basement is an ideal addition to the upper floors. It is multifunctional and can be used as a home office or extra living space in the form of an exhibition space, gym, or relaxation area.

5. Sunny Outdoor Terrace
The terrace, an extension of the living kitchen, offers peace near the bustling heart of ’s-Hertogenbosch. Surrounded by lime trees, residents enjoy privacy, greenery, and sunny days here.

LAYOUT - ENTRANCE WITH INDOOR PARKING SYSTEM
Step inside, experience the unique entrance, and immediately come face to face with two indoor parked cars. The characteristic facade gives no hint that an auto lift greets you upon entry. It might be the biggest surprise of this lovely city villa. The safe, luxurious, and space-saving parking system allows parking for two cars indoors. About a hundred years ago, Orthenstraat 75 housed a garage for the fire department.

The double doors, the height upon entry, and a photo from that period remind us of those times. Today, this same space still serves as a garage. “Was it a childhood dream? It was mainly our wish to live in the city center with ample parking space as an absolute requirement. We found that in this house. While some neighbors walk fifteen minutes to their parking spots, we drive our cars inside in no time,” says the homeowner. The presence of an advanced camera system ensures safety. Another plus: there is no need to move one car outside to make room for the other. Due to the height (over four meters) and the presence of a basement, one car can be parked indoors while making room for the other.

RECEPTION AREA, BASEMENT WITH OFFICE AND GYM
A few steps up, it’s an experience to walk straight toward the custom bar. A real experience, because a bundle of light in the form of an elegant indoor garden beckons on the left. A central light point in this city villa, essential for creating ambiance on each floor with optimal daylight entry. In its current form, the bar serves multiple functions. Those working from home in the basement pause and enjoy a well-deserved latte macchiato. After a workout, one can drink water and make an ultimate recovery drink, and the best aperitifs and digestifs are served here during home dinners. Let ideas and possibilities calmly pass in review. The beautiful staircase downstairs leads to the basement—a space to work, study, or exercise.

FIRST FLOOR - LIVING KITCHEN
Take the stairs up, and the custom cabinets from the bar/reception area return in the same style on the first floor. The wall hides the staircase from view and also offers a lot of extra storage space. Light and spaciousness are adjectives that describe this floor well. The indoor garden plays a significant role in this. But also look at the wide, ceiling-high sliding door in the living kitchen. What an enormous amount of daylight! The timeless custom kitchen consists of a large island and a cabinet wall, executed in the same luxurious and natural materials. It creates unity, tranquility, and a warm and stylish look. The island includes a sink area with Quooker and a work area with an integrated dishwasher and Bora cooktop. The kitchen is complete in terms of built-in appliances, from the refrigerator and freezer to a coffee machine and a combi microwave/oven. Naturally, there is ample storage space for kitchen essentials in the wall and around the kitchen island. Cooking enthusiasts will love it here.

FIRST FLOOR - OUTDOOR TERRACE
Due to the presence of the glass sliding door, the terrace is literally an extension of the living kitchen. Open the door, sit on the lounge bench, and the city center of ’s-Hertogenbosch feels miles away. Near the bustling heart of the city, traffic is barely audible here. You hear birds and distant sounds of children playing outside. In spring and summer, the lime trees ensure complete privacy and a green touch. Residents enjoy the spring sun on this spot.

Need more greenery? Walk a few minutes to the Zuiderpark or visit the lovely Bossche Broek a bit further away.

FIRST FLOOR - LIVING ROOM
Follow the sightline from the kitchen, past the custom cabinet wall, and discover the living room at the front of the house. A place where the current residents love to spend their time. “Due to the amount of light and spaciousness. It’s hard to imagine that this floor once consisted of five small rooms. Together with our architect, we recreated the space and optimized it. We thought about every detail, from the home automation to the sightlines, the lighting plan, and styling with an interior architect and the lady of the house. Lofts in New York were an inspiration.” The openness typical of these city houses also characterizes the living room. The indoor garden contributes to the loft-like setting. The living room and kitchen are distinctly separate but connected.

SECOND FLOOR
Behind the custom cabinet wall is the staircase. A seemingly hidden door leads to the hallway with stairs to the second floor. ‘Comfort and luxury’ are the keywords for this top living floor. Here, too, a large custom cabinet wall has been realized, providing much more extra storage space. This floor has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a separate toilet. The bedroom at the front features custom cabinets and an integrated desk. The smallest bedroom, adjacent to the indoor garden, is also perfect as a walk-in closet and offers access to a small storage attic.

The master bedroom, with its loft-like layout, feels like a luxurious hotel suite. The beautiful en suite bathroom is clearly separated from the bedroom. This bathroom is symmetrically designed with identical sinks on both sides. Opposite—in the middle—is the bathtub with the walk-in shower behind it. The soft, natural colors and materials create a wellness feeling at the end of the day. The toilet is separately housed on this floor. The second bathroom on this floor is smaller and features the same natural tones and materials, with a walk-in shower and sink.

HISTORY
In 2001, this former fire department garage at Orthenstraat 75 was renovated, including a new roof and cleaning up the stall for the first Den Bosch fire engines.

The former fire station also served as a garage for the mayor’s car. After a restoration in 2006, the hall became a location for a Den Bosch artist.

In the 1930s, during the construction of the fire station, Orthenstraat 75 was also adapted to a regional command post. A new facade was added, and the alley was closed.

CURRENT DESIGNATION
Orthenstraat 75 is located in the environmental plan of the municipality of ’s-Hertogenbosch, namely “Binnenstad,” “Paraplubestemmingsplan Bezorgfuncties, afhaalzaken en ondersteunende horeca,” and “Paraplubestemmingsplan woningsplitsing, verkameren en parkeren.” You can consult these plans via ruimtelijkeplannen.nl or omgevingswet.overheid.nl.

In article 4 of the provisions of “Binnenstad,” under the “Centrum” designation, it is indicated under 4.1. a to f what the grounds are intended for concerning the ground floor and basement. The second and higher floors are intended for living.

This thatched long-facade farmhouse was previously the parental home of the current owner. When the next generation took over this municipal monument in 2010, it became their dream home. The estate has been completely and extensively renovated and improved under the supervision of interior architect Marco Daverveld and Siebers Tuinen. Numerous authentic farmhouse elements have been preserved, including various characteristic windows and treated and sandblasted oak beam structures and pillars.

SUSTAINABILITY

This municipal monument has energy label A. The half-open barn with canopy was sustainably equipped in 2015 with 44 solar panels( 320 Wp) on both east and west sides for well-distributed output (about 10.1 MWh in 2023). Virtually all windows - upstairs everywhere anyway - have HR++ insulating glass. The mechanical ventilation has two heat recovery systems (Brink). The swimming pool is heated by a heat pump.

During the renovation, the old floors were removed and the ground was dug up to half a metre. Floor insulation, underfloor heating (entire ground floor and upstairs bathroom) and new finishing floors were then installed. In addition, the ceilings were extra well insulated. Home automation was also installed, so that remote control and the various wall panels/Ipads can be used to control all lighting in the house.

2. Timeless class with modern sustainability
Interior and garden architects Daverveld and Siebers gave this estate high-quality class with a combination of classic and modern comfort (energy label A through 44 solar panels, HR++ glass, heat pump for swimming pool, heat recovery, among others)

Surface other indoor space (double garage): approximately 75 m²
Surface area of building-related outdoor space (canopy): approximately 12 m²
Total surface area: approximately 450 m²
Capacity villa (according to measurement certificate): approximately 1485 m³


LAYOUT

Truly 'a sea of space', for living, working, together and separately. This detached villa offers a multifunctional layout and could well be one of the largest houses in Blixembosch.

The current owners designed the villa themselves and thought particularly well about the various rooms and a logical layout. Space and (multi-)functionality were central to their thoughtful concept and the villa was therefore designed from the inside out. They placed particular emphasis on light, sightlines, warm colours and lots of storage space.

The many available spaces are extremely functional, in contact and connected. Moreover, several rooms are multifunctional; home office, TV room, game room, home gym, cake studio, sewing workshop, workshop and/or extra bedroom.


LEVEL +1: LIVING WING

The covered entrance with wide staircase and platform makes an immediate impression. The double front door with privacy glass, also all around, opens into the surprisingly large, high and bright reception hall with meter cupboard, loft and Velux skylight in the roof plane. The guest WC with fountain and cloakroom, are practically out of sight, to the right behind the hall wall.

The double doors with cut glass to the living and dining room give direct views to (and through!) the open tunnel gas fireplace and the mature rear garden.

The living room with solid hardwood Afzelia parquet flooring is spacious and bright with approximately 80 m² of living space thanks to the large windows at the front and rear as well as the bay window in the side wall.

Through the double sliding door with frosted glass, there is a multifunctional (work) room at the front, currently used as a home office. This room with cupboard wall and mailbox, could then also be used as a TV room or library, for example.

The see-through gas fire from the living room to the dining room with smoked glass and granite in the half-open partition wall, links the garden-oriented dining room to the half-open kitchen. There is optimal daylight through the ceiling-high windows, whereby two parts of the wide sliding door at the rear can be slid open for direct connection to the garden and the terrace on the terrace.

The timeless and semi-open Poggenpohl kitchen with lowered ceiling, has extra-deep 70 cm granite worktops (instead of the regular 60 cm). This maximises the use of corners and, for example, the space behind the four-zone Miele induction hob.

Around the one-and-a-half stainless steel sink under the double kitchen window, the granite is cascaded milled, preventing water from getting onto the floor. Clever: the roller shutter cabinet allows kitchen appliances to do their work in a muffled way. Clever: the roller shutter cabinet allows kitchen appliances to do their work in a muffled way. Furthermore, the kitchen has several Siemens built-in appliances: dishwasher, fridge, microwave, convection oven and stainless steel extractor hood. Hot water comes quickly, thanks to the Daalderop close-in boiler.

The adjacent utility room has a kitchen unit with plastic sink and a large Liebherr built-in freezer. Next to the cellar stairs to the basement are the connections for the washing equipment.

Actually, this large farmhouse on this gigantic plot deserves the predicate 'estate'. The entire complex has a (double) residential destination.

In 2010-2011, this approximately 36-meter long Brabantian long facade farmhouse - the ancestral home of the lady of the house - was completely rebuilt except for a few walls, including the foundation. While preserving the layout, original materials, door and window shapes, and masonry techniques, as shown by the beautiful 'mouse tooth' patterns in the facades. Skilled craftsmen used original materials from another authentic farmhouse for this purpose. However, glass facades and Velux skylights have been incorporated, seamlessly integrated into the newly laid thatched roof, which provides extra daylight and eye-level views everywhere. All doors and (stable) windows have the original sizes and functions.

The design and construction were done in consultation with the Brabant Landscape, to preserve all original style and landscape elements. Interior and layout were realized under the guidance of BNI interior architect Doret Schulkes. The entire long facade farmhouse is prepared for dual occupancy, with double partition doors, separate central heating boilers, and vacuum systems.

Outbuilding 1 has been completely renovated, and outbuilding 2 has been newly built. The entire property has been operated for many years as the highly luxurious and well-known B&B Leendershoeve with four suites on the left side of the farmhouse.

What will the owners miss? "Certainly the sunsets from the terrace here; every day so incredibly beautiful and a different 'painter' every evening.

SUSTAINABILITY

The farmhouse has an energy label A (until 06-07-2032). The 48 high-efficiency solar panels on the outbuilding (double garage) provide nearly all of the electricity consumption.

During construction, the entire roof was renewed, including the baked roof tiles and the thatched roof (which was reshaved at the beginning of 2022). By applying wooden roof battens on the inside, on the 14 cm thick roof insulation, the rafters could be installed at the correct (eye) height and concealed for the added Velux skylights. Acoustic ceilings have been applied in the living area (living room and living kitchen) of the main residence.

Considerable attention has also been paid to the floors. On the oak ceilings in the guest accommodation or residence 2, there are double insulation layers on the floors, then planks and then the flooring.

All pipes, inlets, and outlets are concealed behind lockable shutters in the sloping roof in the rear facade.

Both on the ground floor in the living room and on the first floor, the main residence and the guest accommodation are separated by two lockable and soundproof doors.

The view from your residence is different every day, every hour. On the left, the Bonnefantenmuseum rises above the Kennedy Bridge, on the other side of the Meuse sits the Limburg Gouvernement. And then, of course, there is the Meuse itself, slowly flowing commercial and pleasure craft.
