AT THE IJSELMEER IN A HISTORIC LOCATIONAt Het Rode Klif (It Reaklif), part of the idyllic hamlet of Skarl, lies this spacious, detached house with several outbuildings and a guest accommodation, where the Frisian meadows transition into the IJsselmeer coast. Anyone who has cycled part of the Eleven Cities Route can surely tell you that the area from Oudemirdum to Stavoren is exceptionally beautiful, and no one will have missed the unique location of Skarl 21 when climbing Het Rode Klif. As you drive up the 80-meter-long driveway lined with majestic trees from the dike, you will feel how the space and serenity of this special place embrace you. The property, sheltered by abundant greenery, is surrounded by expansive views towards the IJsselmeer on one side and rolling meadows on the other. A location where you can unobstructedly watch the sun rise from the terrace on the east side and follow its movement throughout the day, until you can see it set late in the evening from your own orchard behind the dike.A MIX OF CHARACTER AND MODERN COMFORTFrom the generous (84m²) open-plan kitchen and living area, you can see how beautifully the old, smaller house built around 1919 has been combined with a more recent addition constructed in 2009. This results in a blend of charm and contemporary comfort. The older part has, of course, been fully modernized and offers all the comfort you would expect. The spacious kitchen, with an inviting centrally located island, forms the heart of the home. There’s plenty of space to enjoy long dinners with family and friends around the large dining table that invites cozy gatherings. The new section of the house features a bright, very spacious living room where you can truly relax. From every corner of the living room, you can enjoy the sweeping views over the meadows where the neighbors' cows graze peacefully, where wading birds forage, where raptors soar, and where hares dart around while deer graze calmly. The back corner of the living room is perfect for a home cinema with ample space for enjoyable and relaxing viewing. Of course, attention must also be given to the spacious conservatory with French doors leading to the garden, which can be used for various purposes—simply as a quiet place to read a book, listen to good music, or perhaps as an office space. In addition to all this beauty, there are functional spaces on the ground floor, including a spacious hall with an entrance and staircase to the upper floor, a shower room perfect after water activities in the IJsselmeer, a separate toilet, a utility room with space for laundry appliances, and a spacious cellar with standing height that is also accessible from the hall.TRANQUILITY AND PRIVACY WITH BREATHTAKING VIEWSThe pièce de résistance on the upper floor is the lounge with 7 Velux windows and a large panoramic window overlooking the IJsselmeer; the view is spectacular and endless. The IJsselmeer stretches unobstructed before you while you are surrounded by meadows, with Laaksum, the smallest harbor in Europe, visible in the distance, and on your right, the outlines of Enkhuizen, where you could, quite literally, count the number of buildings along the water on a clear day. Here in the lounge, you can truly experience Vivaldi’s Four Seasons with ever-changing nature. For the current residents, this room is a sanctuary where the busyness of the world fades away. Whether you are gazing at the drifting Frisian skies or enjoying the cows leisurely wandering through the landscape or along the dike, nature feels almost tangible here. The light streaming in through the large windows creates an atmosphere of tranquility and serenity, making it an ideal place to relax, recharge, or simply doze off. There are two bedrooms, one on the north side and one on the south side, with the latter being a favorite due to the large balcony with phenomenal views over the IJsselmeer. On clear days, you can see Enkhuizen and Medemblik across the water. This floor also has a large bathroom with a bath and separate shower, as well as a toilet. The spacious landing features several tall and deep built-in closets.A PROPERTY FULL OF POSSIBILITIESThe estate is just as impressive as the house itself. With a plot of 10,795 m², of which approximately 2,000 m² is residential area, there is ample space for outdoor living and personal interpretation. To the north of the tree line along the driveway lies a rolling meadow that beautifully reflects the characteristic landscape of Het Rode Klif. A 100-meter-long, winter-hardy green beech hedge forms a natural boundary from the neighbors' property. In this meadow, there is a variety of 14 fruit trees, including apples, pears, and plums. On the south side of the estate, there is an even larger meadow that follows the same rolling lines characteristic of the unique location at Het Rode Klif. Historically, the land was used for agriculture and remains fertile, offering plenty of opportunities for gardening or creating your own vegetable garden or food forest. Naturally, keeping sheep, goats, or horses is also an option. On the estate, there is a variety of outbuildings: a carport suitable for two cars, a spacious garage with an attached second large barn, a chicken coop, and a self-sufficient guest accommodation of 34 m², ideal for family and friends.SUSTAINABLE LIVING WITH ENERGY LABEL AThe house is fully insulated and, in addition to a solar boiler for preheating tap water, is equipped with 12 solar panels. There is underfloor heating in the new part of the house, as well as in the conservatory and bathroom on the upper floor, which adds extra comfort during the colder months. In the earlier built section on the ground floor, there are several radiators, and on the upper floor, radiators have also been installed in all rooms. In the living room, there is a pellet stove that has been installed for a year now.THE MAGIC OF THE IJSELMEER AT YOUR DOORSTEP The current residents are 100% convinced that the new residents will also be joyful every day from taking a walk from their own estate to the IJsselmeer… you simply walk down your own driveway to the dike, cross it, and then descend to one of the quiet beaches along the IJsselmeer. From these almost 'private beaches,' you can enjoy swimming, paddleboarding, surfing, or canoeing. For kite surfers, there is the popular kite surfing beach of Mirns just five minutes away by car, as well as the kite surfing beach of Stavoren, which you can reach by bike in just five minutes. For other water sports, such as sailing, the harbors of Warns and Stavoren are nearby. Living at Skarl 21 allows you to effortlessly combine daily life with water fun, all just a stone's throw from your own home. This beautiful place offers not just a house but a rare opportunity to find your own piece of peace and freedom in Friesland.SPECIAL FEATURES- Year of construction 1919/2009 - Energy label A - Directly at the IJsselmeer - Incredibly beautiful, quiet, free natural location - 240m² of living space - Spacious living room, open kitchen, and master bedroom, all with panoramic views - 3 bedrooms (4 possible), 2 bathrooms - Detached guest accommodation; kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom - Residential area of approximately 2,000m² with about 8,795m² of meadow and many outbuildings.WARNS The village of Warns is located in Southwest Friesland and is part of the municipality of Súdwest-Fryslân.
