Central Brabant: Tilburg, Goirle and Oosterhout

Via the A58 and the A16 it is approx. 45 min from Tilburg to Brecht. Further than Goirle, closer than you think.

From the villa districts of Tilburg to the Antwerp Kempen

Anyone wanting to live spaciously in Tilburg, Goirle or Oisterwijk knows the names: Zorgvlied, De Blaak, the woods around Oisterwijk. The supply of large detached villas there is limited, and those looking for something special sometimes wait years. Residents of Goirle know the border is close, but then often look only at Poppel or Ravels. The villa districts north of Antwerp are a little further, and offer a different kind of house: architect-designed, on a generous plot in the woods, with a major city around the corner.

For entrepreneurs and home workers

Many buyers from this region run their own business or work from home part of the week. What counts then is not the daily commute but whether you can work well at home and whether clients, the office and the airport are within reach. Villa Grandeur has a 31 m² office on its own level, quick access via the E19 and three airports within reach: Antwerp, Brussels and Eindhoven.

What the villa offers

The villa was built in 2004 and has been updated step by step since: the family bathroom in 2023, the pool's heat pump and pump installation in 2024, the terraces in 2025. The Fibaro home automation system controls heating, pool, blinds, lighting, irrigation and security, at home and remotely. The energy label is EPC B. According to the owners, heating costs stay below €200 a month.

With 412 m² of living space, five bedrooms, a sauna and an 11 by 5 metre pool on 1,529 m² of land, the asking price is €1,095,000. The guide explains what you pay on top of that in Belgium.
