This richly decorated farmhouse, Marsicht, is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful farmhouses in Friesland!
This spacious farmhouse, Marsicht, has been architecturally renovated and fully sustainable, made energy-neutral while retaining beautiful elements and creating comfortable living spaces with plenty of comfort. The farmhouse is situated on a beautifully secluded plot of 2,381 m² and faces the inner harbor at the front. Next to the farmhouse is a spacious driveway leading to the large garage—formerly a coach house—and a large barn with a storage attic. Gaastmeer is a beloved water sports destination in the heart of the Frisian lake district, with beautiful boating routes to the Oudegaaster Brekken, Fluessen/Heegermeer, and Workum. Additionally, Gaastmeer is surrounded by many beautiful nature reserves with varied cycling and walking routes, and ferry crossings to Workum.
Gaastmeer is easily accessible from the A6, and via the water sports village of Heeg, you can reach Gaastmeer within 5 minutes. It is a charming and lively village with a supermarket, marinas, and restaurants. The nearby village of Heeg offers a primary school, a general practitioner's office, and various shops. Due to its central location, the towns of Workum and Sneek are also easily accessible by bike and public transport.
Historically, Gaastmeer was a wealthy village where eel trade once flourished. Gaastmeer was one of the most important export locations to London. Farmhouse Marsicht was built in 1875 at the request of Wieger Jans Visser. The building was used as an office and storage for provisions for the crew of eel barges. The Visser family was a co-founder of the eel trade in London.
The current owners have renovated Marsicht into a comfortable home that is also future-proof, using excellent materials while preserving the original gentleman’s room with a box bed, a cozy living room with high ceilings, and sturdy beams. Additionally, the building has been made sustainable and energy-neutral with high insulation values, a geothermal heat pump (underfloor heating and cooling), 36 solar panels, HR++ glazing, and a heat recovery unit. A central vacuum system and water softener add extra comfort.
In addition to residential living, the farmhouse offers various possibilities for an office, studio, or bed and breakfast.
