000872160057 - Emmastad - Characteristic tropical villa with pool and apartment  - Renovated while retaining unique tropical characterOriginally built by Shell, this 1930s home was completely renovated and modernized in 2006 under architecture by Atelier Lobo & Raymann.

Situated on a spacious plot of 1490 m2 (leasehold land) and surrounded by greenery, this original Emmastad house comes into its own beautifully. A modern, well maintained villa with a tropical character and practical layout is the result.Attractive, practically laid out main houseThe main house consists of a generous living room with adjoining kitchen, four bedrooms and a spacious bathroom with rain shower. One bedroom is currently used as an office. All bedrooms are air conditioned, two of which were recently renewed (2023). In the entire house is a beautiful parquet floor of Surinamese hardwood. On the outside of the house is a guest toilet and two spacious storage rooms.Authentic high ceilings, shutters and ventilation grillsThe entire house has high ceilings of almost four meters, which creates a very spacious feeling. In addition to the traditional hardwood shutter windows and doors, this home also has ventilation grills, making the home optimally ventilated by the wonderful trade winds.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining area under the porch.Multiple porchesBy opening the sliding doors and patio doors a beautiful space is created where the indoor and outdoor living areas become one. On the spacious porch with wooden decking there is room for a dining and lounge area. Here is also enough space for a barbecue and outdoor kitchen. At the entrance to the house is a cozy porch with custom-made benches, a wonderful place in the wind to enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.
