luxury apartments / penthouses for sale Gelderland, Netherlands

Exclusive country house on a large plot, with guest house, swimming pool, and paddocks for horsesOn the edge of the picturesque village of Geesteren stands this magnificent country house with guest house and office space—a place where tradition and high-end living meet. This extremely luxurious ensemble covers a generous plot of over 1.9 hectares, consisting of impressive ornamental gardens, a beautiful ‘paddock paradise’ and the ancient orchard. The main house dates from 1935, but in recent years – while retaining its rural character – it has been completely transformed and made sustainable into the exceptionally beautiful farmhouse it is today. No expense was spared, with a consistent choice of extremely high-quality materials, and the beautiful paintwork on all the woodwork is striking. The roofs and windows are well insulated. The garden has a ground installation for 90 (!) solar panels, and there are two large solar collectors on the roof of the farmhouse. This magnificent house therefore has an excellent energy label A+. B&B or home office?In 2018, the former warehouse was replaced by a beautiful, architecturally designed (Haverkort Architects) barn with an attractive thatched mansard roof. A statement house and a landmark in the village, as it is virtually the only part that is really visible from the public road. So, have you always wanted to run a B&B, or do you work from home and need a fantastically equipped office? Then the Dennendijk ticks quite a few boxes. In short, everything about this estate—because that's what we can call it—is just right: the proportions, the elegant design, the meeting of classic traditional and modern... It is an oasis of luxury and blissful tranquility in the most beautiful region of the country: the Achterhoek. GeesterenGeesteren is a charming village in the Achterhoek, bordering the Twente region. The church tower with its golden hen and rooster, dating from the 16th century, dominates the horizon and is surrounded by a patchwork of meadows, rolling hills, and fields. Time seems to have no hold on the character of this village; it is old-fashioned in its beauty, and a few years ago its charm was rewarded with the title ‘Most Beautiful Village in Gelderland’. Ground floor - Main houseTwo decorative wrought iron gates provide a fitting welcome. You can park on the spacious driveway on the right, with a view of the incomparably beautiful gardens. The entrance is located under the porch, on the side of the house. The central hall is magnificent, with natural stone tiles, cream-colored, smoothly plastered walls, and fresh white woodwork. On the left is the toilet with a washbasin and the stairs to the upper floor. On the right is the kitchen, the beating heart of this house. The design is truly beautiful: traditional craftsmanship by Lodder Keukens from Barneveld, equipped with all modern conveniences. Every door, drawer, and function has been carefully considered. The kitchen has an L-shaped layout and is very spacious, so there is plenty of work space and room for all your guests at the large dining table. The fronts are copper-colored, which creates a beautiful interplay with the marble countertops and the sleek appliance wall. The kitchen is equipped with built-in appliances such as a dishwasher, refrigerator, and freezer. Furthermore, there is an induction hob (90 cm), a coffee machine (Gaggenau), a 4-in-1 boiling water tap (Quooker), and a generous wine climate cabinet (Liebherr).Adjacent to this, accessible both through the glazed French doors from the kitchen and from the central hall, is the spacious sitting and garden room; what an ambiance! The floor is covered with oak herringbone parquet, which, together with the old beams, gives a classic context to the contemporary interior. The room is fabulously beautiful, but it is also homely: cozy and warm. There are two sitting areas, both with a fireplace: on the one hand, in the living room, a sandstone fireplace with a wood-burning stove behind glass and, on the other hand, a modern gas fireplace in the charming garden room. On the left side of the house is the bedroom with bathroom on the ground floor. The former barn doors have been filled with glass and offer a view of and access to the garden and stables.
