Pilegårdsvej 23

There are houses where you immediately want to change everything. And then there are houses like this one, where you first want to take a good look at what is already there.
At Pilegårdsvej 23 stands a well-kept yellow-brick detached house from 1969 with many of the qualities that make houses from this period so sought after today: everything on one level, a simple and practical layout, fine original details and large windows that bring the garden and the daylight right into the home.

The location is worth noting. The house is one of the last on a residential cul-de-sac, and behind it the south-facing garden opens up, with a terrace, green surroundings and good
opportunities for both sun and shelter. There is peace and quiet around the house – while everyday life in Blovstrød and Allerød is close at hand.

Inside, the 140 m² are naturally split between the living areas and a wing of rooms. The large L-shaped living room is the heart of the house, with long runs of windows facing the garden and a fireplace as a
characterful feature. The eat-in kitchen is right next to it, so if you want a large, modern open-plan kitchen-diner, the opportunity is right there. At the other end of the house are three rooms, and the layout allows for a fourth. On top of that come two bathrooms, a utility room and an ideal main bedroom with its own en suite and direct access to the terrace.

The house has been looked after over the years, but it does not try to be something it is not. There is still timber, original details and clear traces of ’60s architecture. That gives the next owner a rare opportunity: to modernise with respect for the house – or to create their very own version of it.

Outside you get a 776 m² plot, a garage with an adjoining shed, a paved driveway and a garden that already has a good framework in place. And the location makes everyday life easy. The woods of Tokkekøb Hegn are close by, as are a school, childcare, sports facilities and shops. Allerød town centre and the S-train can be reached by bike, while Copenhagen is less than half an hour’s drive away. Pilegårdsvej 23 is not a new-build dressed up as a ’60s house. It is the real thing – with space, light, a garden and possibilities for the next family.
