The property sits on a spacious plot featuring multiple terraces, a large lawn, various outbuildings, and a private jetty with a boat mooring. It is a wonderful place for anyone seeking freedom, privacy, and a rural living environment.

Entrance

You arrive at the property via the spacious driveway. The generous outdoor area immediately makes a great first impression. Although the house has an official front entrance, the everyday entrance is located at the side. Here, you step directly into the cozy kitchen-diner—the warm heart of the home.

Kitchen-Diner

The kitchen-diner exudes charm and perfectly complements the character of the house. The cherry wood worktop pairs beautifully with the light cream/white cabinet fronts, giving the kitchen a timeless, country-style look.

The spacious island, featuring a double sink, serves as the kitchen’s focal point. There is also plenty of workspace and storage, thanks to numerous cabinets and a practical pull-out pantry unit. The kitchen is fully equipped with a 5-burner gas hob (including a wok burner), an oven, a dishwasher, and a large refrigerator with a freezer compartment.

Characteristic wooden beams add extra charm to the room. Abundant natural light streams in through the French doors and large windows, offering a view of the garden. The tiled floor features comfortable underfloor heating, supplemented by radiators.

Utility room

Adjoining the kitchen is the practical utility room. This space houses the connections for the washing machine and dryer, an additional sink, and the Intergas central heating boiler (CW5, 2020). The underfloor heating manifold is also located here.

From the utility room, you have direct access to both the large barn and the yard. Authentic stable-style windows give this room an atmospheric, country-style feel as well.

Living room

From the kitchen, you move into the living room. A beautiful wooden floor connects the various living areas and creates a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Large windows admit plenty of natural light and offer a lovely view of the garden. There is ample space for a large dining table—perfect for lingering over meals—and a generous seating area for relaxation. A connection for a fireplace is already in place, offering the possibility to create an even cozier atmosphere.

Hallway, office, and cellar

From the living room, you reach the second hallway, which serves as the home’s main entrance. This area contains the updated fuse box with a 3-phase connection, as well as the gas and water connections.

The hallway provides access to a practical cellar, ideal for storing supplies or other items.

Additionally, the ground floor features a pleasant office space filled with natural light. It is a great spot for working from home, pursuing a hobby, creating a quiet reading room or playroom, or even setting up a ground-floor bedroom. The toilet is neatly finished and equipped with a wall-mounted toilet, a small washbasin, and mechanical ventilation.
