Welcome to Willem de Bruynstraat 5 – a charming semi-detached home featuring an approximately 8-metre-deep garage, a spacious open kitchen, a sunny garden, and no fewer than five bedrooms. Lovingly renovated with care and attention, this home is ready for its next owners. The current residents have enjoyed living here for nearly 20 years — they were instantly drawn to the warm atmosphere, the generous space, and the ideal location.
This location truly offers it all: peaceful living in the friendly Mensfort neighbourhood, with childcare, schools, and shops all close at hand. The city centre of Eindhoven and the creative Strijp-S district are also nearby — yet this remains a place where you can relax and unwind every day.
Over the years, the house has been completely modernised and made more sustainable, recently achieving energy label A.
A new concrete floor was installed with extra insulation, and all electrical, gas, water, and sewage lines were completely renewed. In 2019/2020, cavity wall insulation was added throughout. In 2021, the entire roof was replaced — including structural beams, insulated panels, and new clay roof tiles. At the same time, a wide dormer with hardwood frames was installed at the rear. In 2022, all window frames were replaced with aluminium HR++ glazing, including the front door. In 2023, a new Remeha high-efficiency boiler and fourteen solar panels were added.
The rear extension provides additional living space, making the house not only comfortable but also highly practical in everyday use.
In short: this home has been updated down to the finest detail and is truly move-in ready — you can settle in with complete peace of mind.

The sunny garden offers plenty of privacy, greenery, and space to relax. Whether you love gardening, playing with the kids, or enjoying a barbecue with friends – this is a space to savour in every season.
LAYOUT SPACIOUS LIVING ROOM AND KITCHEN
Step inside through the aluminium front door with smoked glass — stylish and private. The tiled hallway with cloakroom, toilet, and beautiful wooden spiral staircase leads to the living room.
The long living room feels bright and open thanks to the skylight and large rear windows. At the front, you have an open view of the greenery along Dokter Berlagelaan, creating a wonderful sense of space. Built-in spotlights add subtle lighting, the oak flooring adds warmth, and the fireplace adds atmosphere. Prefer the convenience of gas? The connection is already in place.
The living room flows effortlessly into the sleek, open kitchen with underfloor heating and dark tiles. Equipped with Siemens appliances, ample storage, and a large cooking island, it’s ideal for home chefs. The French doors open directly onto the garden, blending indoor and outdoor living beautifully.
FIVE BEDROOMS AND A BATHROOM WITH CORNER BATH
The first floor includes the master bedroom, bright and open thanks to the large window spanning the full width of the room. The dark frames add a touch of elegance, and the view over Dokter Berlagelaan is pleasant and green. The adjoining balcony features custom aluminium railings and hardwood decking — a lovely spot to relax.
There are three additional bedrooms and a fully equipped bathroom with a shower, washbasin, toilet, and spacious corner bath — perfect for relaxation or fun with the kids.
On the second floor, the fifth bedroom surprises with its space and versatility, thanks to the wide dormer: ideal as a guest room, home office, or hobby space. Storage space is available behind the knee walls, and on the landing, you’ll find laundry connections and a light-filled workspace under the window.
GARDEN AND OUTDOOR LIVING
Step into the rear garden — a true place to unwind. Open the back doors and enjoy the sun throughout the day. The trained trees provide privacy, while laurel, bamboo, hydrangeas, butterfly bushes, and passion flowers bring colour and life. There’s still plenty of space for play or a vegetable patch for green thumbs.
Garage and Parking
To the left of the house is a private driveway and plenty of free parking on the street.
The former garage now serves multiple functions — with heating and water connections, it’s perfect as a utility or hobby room. Nearly 8 metres deep and over 4 metres wide, it includes an up-and-over door, a door to the garden, and a separate entrance to the driveway.
EXTRA COMFORT AND SUSTAINABILITY
This home has been renovated with care and built to last. Fourteen solar panels, a completely new insulated roof (2021), a full-width rear dormer, and new aluminium HR++ windows (2022) ensure modern efficiency.
Cavity wall insulation was added in 2019, and three air conditioning units (installed in 2020 and 2023) keep the upstairs rooms comfortable year-round. The kitchen and hallway feature underfloor heating, while the Remeha central heating system (2023) keeps everything efficiently warm.
A professionally maintained alarm system adds extra peace of mind, and shutters on the upper floor provide both privacy and climate control.
This modernised home is truly move-in ready and completely future-proof.
LOCATION: PEACEFUL YET CLOSE TO THE CITY
The home sits on a quiet street in Mensfort, a friendly neighbourhood in Woensel-Zuid. Neighbours know each other, there’s a community chat group, and kids can still safely play outside — it really feels like home.
Everything you need is nearby: shops, schools, supermarkets, and sports facilities are just minutes away. Beautiful green spaces such as Philips de Jongh Park and the newly reopened Landgoed De Wielewaal are within walking or cycling distance.
The city centre of Eindhoven is less than 10 minutes away by bike or public transport, and major roads to Tilburg and Den Bosch are easily accessible. Here you can enjoy the perfect balance of tranquillity and urban life.
The Willem de Bruynstraat is scheduled for a major upgrade in 2026 — with more greenery, new paving, better lighting, and improved cycling routes — making this already pleasant street even more attractive.
