Situated along a wide green avenue, on a fantastic free plot of over 5.600m², unique and distinguished, yet modest domain. The country house was founded in 2003 where the classical ideas of quality are guaranteed by the Belgian craftsmen who built this house. During the construction there is really nothing left to chance to achieve such an end result. The unique collaboration between the interior designers of Decoration Empire and the well-known Belgian villa builder Vlassak Verhulst has resulted in the current country house with outbuildings, in which classic and sustainable building materials have fused hand in hand with all modern conveniences and techniques. The beautifully landscaped garden has been created in a very tasteful and well thought-out manner and houses beautiful sun terraces, a heated outdoor swimming pool with fully equipped pool house and is surrounded by lots of greenery. The country house can be reached via a prominent driveway with entrance gate and offers spacious, covered parking at the front as well as a spacious indoor and heated garage for four cars. In the house are the finest materials used. For example, the parquet floors are made of 18th century antique parquet floors from manoirs in France. The beautiful floor has been selected plank by plank and laid one by one. The fireplace also dates from the 18th century and has been used for centuries in a manor house in the Loire region of France. The walls are covered with coloured fabrics created in Italy. Layout; Entrance, spacious reception hall with cloakroom and toilet. Through this presidential foyer a number of the living spaces on the ground floor are accessible, including the very beautiful and spacious living room and the reception room. Furthermore, on the ground floor there is a rustic study, the formal dining room which houses six 18th century, hand-painted Chinese wall panels. The very cozy one of a kind kitchen is equipped with a La Cornue cooking island, where it is three stars cooking! The countertop is made of 5cm solid bluestone with of course all built-in kitchen appliances and a beautiful fireplace. The storage room, laundry room, (service) entrance with hall and toilet complete this floor. From the 2nd hall are both the wine cellar and the technical room to reach, as well as the spacious guest (au-pair) bedroom above the garage with private bathroom. The central vein of the country house is the staircase, a specially designed banister is forged by one of the few remaining ornamental forges. From the spacious landing with mezzanine the 4 bedrooms varying in size can be reached. Between two (children's) bedrooms is a luxurious and complete bathroom, lots of closet space, a laundry room and a closet wall. On the right side of the house is the master bedroom wing, consisting of three wardrobes, luxury and complete bathroom and a spacious master bedroom with balcony. Through the distinguished staircase is also the second floor accessible consisting of another spacious landing with large storage space, a home cinema / recreation room and a 5th spacious bedroom with private bathroom and spacious walk-in storage. Special features; The key words for this unique domain are space, light and unprecedented (subdued) luxury. Of course there is a home automation-controlled audio and video system and one is the house both internally and externally equipped with extensive security systems. The floors on the ground floor and first floor are equipped with unique antique floors with various patterns. The (primary and secondary) schools, the vast nature, shopping facilities and railway station are a short convenient distance away. The content of the villa is over 2.700m³, the living area including the other indoor spaces is 715m² (NEN2580). In short, a once in a lifetime oppurtunity!

Villa Flevorama, an unique pearl by the seaLeaves rustle in the wind. Tormented by a seagull flying overhead. Buzz of people walking in the distance on the Waterkeringpad. Silence. At this spot, the highest point of Muiderberg, writer and poet Gerard Reve wrote one of his novels. He found peace and inspiration in and around Flevorama: a nationally listed villa, located on a sloping park-like plot and with magnificent views over the IJmeer. This 'white house by the sea' has a rich history and is ready for the next chapter with new stories.We take you back to 1885. The year in which manufacturer Heinrich Ludwig Friedrich Rincker commissioned two architects for the construction of villa Flevorama. About five years after the commission, Flevorama – which literally means 'view of Flevo' – is rising on the slope of the former Zuiderzee coast. The style can best be described as eclectic: a mix of different (neo) building styles. This style is not immediately apparent when you enter the plot in a season when the trees are still in full leaf. The villa is hidden behind a hedge and tall deciduous trees. The closer you get to the villa, the more typical elements catch the eye. Starting with the symmetrically arranged facade with beautiful plastered details wherever you look. From corner pilasters and a cordon molding to crown and window mouldings. The second floor is really striking with its processed slanting beams and the frame under the eaves. Plus the graceful dormer window with diamond-shaped windows, wind springs and plastered facade. Due to the presence of a hedge against the facade, the part to the left of the entrance appears to be a separate outbuilding. Appearances are deceiving. The conservatory built in 1992, which is partly hidden behind the hedge, connects the villa with this 'outbuilding'. This part houses the kitchen and a second living room.A living room with seas of lightAlthough the driveway suggests that the green door is the original front door, the same applies here: nothing is as it seems. Walk in here and you are immediately in the middle of the living room. The pillars create a kind of security: a seating area with a fireplace as atmosphere maker, a classic herringbone floor and stylish fitted wardrobes that frame the 'front door'. Step past the pillars and it will feel like you are standing outside. The facade, consisting entirely of windows and French doors, brings seas of light and beautiful views over the garden and the water. Imagine Gerard Reve here. Sitting at his desk with the French doors open, while a gentle breeze finds its way in. He is putting the finishing touches to his book and every now and then, musing, glances over passing sailboats. Villa Flevorama was an inspiring place for many. Perhaps you will soon place your easel in front of one of the windows here and put the most beautiful cloudy skies on the canvas.This greenhouse goes with all seasonsWe'll take you back to the front door. The original that is. This is located in the hall, on the side of the IJmeer. Through the hall you enter the conservatory, which was added later, described as a dining room on the floor plan. Having breakfast, lunch or dinner here gives you the feeling that you are sitting outside. Take the time to let the details sink in. From the recurring pillars and the dark hard stone floor to the diamond-shaped upper windows and the beautiful beam construction above you. Open all patio doors to cool off on a hot summer day. Or enjoy the cozy warmth of the stove on a bleak autumn day.The kitchen: warm and a sense of nostalgiaWhile you, your family or guests are enjoying themselves in the dining room, the adjoining kitchen is perfect for evenings of cooking fun. The space feels cosy, warm and evokes a feeling of nostalgia. The fresh green colour, the rustic tiled floor and the whites above the sink contribute to this. It was like walking into a farmhouse kitchen. Central to this room is the cooking peninsula with natural stone top. Opposite it is a large gas stove with built-in oven. Also in this room, pay attention to the details. The graceful, protruding ceiling molding surmounted by wood paneling. Or the rustic china cabinet above the counter. It's all in the details. This also applies to the adjacent second living room, which has many similarities with the dining room in the conservatory. From the diamond-shaped upper windows and the special beam construction against the ceiling to the pillars and the same breathtaking view. In contrast to the dining room, a warm, classic herringbone floor has been chosen here. A wonderful place to work, write, paint or watch the sailing boats pass by.Master bedroom with an amazing viewVilla Flevorama has a total of five bedrooms, making it an ideal family home, for example. On the first floor are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The master bedroom has two patio doors to the roof terrace. Here too, enjoy the amazing view over the sloping, park-like garden and the views over the water. Both bedrooms are wonderfully light, offer more than enough space for a double bed and have the same warm herringbone floor as downstairs. The bathroom has a bath and a vanity unit with two separate sinks. On the second floor are three bedrooms. Typical of these rooms are the diamond-shaped windows and the playful sloping walls with an exposed wooden beam here and there. Both belong to the dormer windows that are so characteristic of villa Flevorama. A villa about which several books could easily be written, but the best you can experience this pearl and its unique location. Taste the atmosphere and discover whether you will soon be adding a new chapter to the rich history here.Finally:- Muiderberg is just over twenty minutes by car from the center of Amsterdam. Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is about half an hour away.- Muiderberg is a village with plenty of amenities. From a supermarket and two primary schools to a general practice with a pharmacy, a dentist and several physiotherapy practices.- Hockey, football, tennis, sailing, horseback riding, kiting: it is all represented in Muiderberg.- Weesp station and Almere Poort station are about ten minutes away.

A RARITY… NATIONAL MONUMENT ‘MALEPARTUS’ A unique villa built in the English country house style, designed in 1929 by architect M.J. Klijnstra. The villa boasts an impressive net floor area of nearly 750 m². This exceptional residence is surrounded by a beautifully landscaped garden with spacious sun terraces, set on a magnificent plot of 3,500 m² of private land. Description The detached villa, positioned parallel to the road, is built in the English country house style with a complex floor plan and predominantly two stories under a slate-covered hipped roof. The roof features dormers of various sizes, also with hipped roofs. In 1958, a stunning multi-level living/work wing was added to part of the rear façade, executed in the same style. The façades are constructed of red brick. The windows feature steel frames with divided panes, natural stone mullions, sills, and lintels. This volume connects the garage with the main living area, which has a broader floor plan. The main entrance is located at the corner where the living area connects to the rest of the villa. The living section is two stories high, while the rear façade is largely single-story under a tall roof, with a two-story setback on the left, later extended with a spacious conservatory. Interior The ground floor retains valuable original features, including period tile and parquet floors, and a masonry fireplace in the sitting room of particular significance. The villa also contains a so-called Venetian-style room from the original construction period, incorporating several architectural elements likely dating back to the seventeenth century. This room features a beam ceiling, stained-glass windows, and a wooden window sill. Heritage Value Villa Malepartus is of national importance due to its architectural and historical value as an intact example of an English country house villa with fine detailing and diverse material use. It also holds significant ensemble value as part of the built environment along Soestdijkseweg. The house is highly suitable for combining living and working from home, or for dual occupancy. For reasons of discretion, this presentation provides only a general impression and a limited number of interior photographs. The drone footage gives an excellent overview of this remarkable location. Summary of Key Features - 3,493 m² private land - 669 m² net usable floor area (NEN2580) - 48 m² basement - 25 m² internal garage - Independent internal second residence/guest house - National monument - Independent structural survey available Timeless Beauty A compliment that certainly applies to Villa Malepartus. History has shown that this home has offered only a few privileged generations the opportunity to live at the highest standard. The only requirement from its new owners is respect and reverence for a history that began in the previous century and continues to this day. All in all, this is a unique and complete family home, offering extraordinary space and a remarkable location for those seeking a special residence. Of course, the above is only a brief description of a truly exceptional property, and further details are available on request. We are pleased to provide comprehensive information about this beautiful villa with its stunning garden on a generously sized plot.

A hidden gem on the Vecht. This description certainly applies to this beautiful country house called Zonneweelde with a breathtaking ornamental garden located directly on the river de Vecht. This characteristic, detached villa does not have a imposing appearance from the front but exudes peace, charm and modesty. Characteristic of the popular architectural style of the early twentieth century.The country house was commissioned by the Casant brothers in 1924 as two separate houses, completely symmetrical in style, designed by architect G. De Heus. In 2002-2003 the two houses were merged into 1 spacious and comfortable family home. This was done under architecture by a restoration architect with a great deal of attention to detail and a particularly high level of finishing. You don't expect the many surprises that this unique object has to offer when you drive up the path through the wrought iron gate. The house (399 m2 NEN living space) is located between the popular villages of Breukelen and Maarssen and stands on a great plot of over 3,091 m2 of land with direct access/connection to the river de Vecht. The garden is certainly one of the many surprises. This jewel has been carefully landscaped over the years by the owners, with the input of a well-known landscape architect, and shaped into a beautiful ornamental garden where you can relax in peace and privacy after leaving the hustle and bustle of the big city. Enjoy a good book, a nice glass and a snack, or relax with family and friends in the sun or natural shade on one of the several intimate terraces/seating areas. In this classic English ornamental garden you will find beautiful borders by colour with flowering plants that follow each other in bloom at different times of the year. Spring starts with Stinzen plants and a multitude of bulbs. The landscaping is well thought out with perennials, shrubs and monumental trees, truly a green and colorful oasis in the middle of the Randstad. From the house the discovery of this beautiful garden begins, at the rear with a spacious terrace on the conservatory which runs out to the large lawn, through beautiful paths, drillers, ponds and seating areas you enter various garden rooms, each with its own style and atmosphere. On the spacious plot there is of course ample parking space for several cars and there are two large outbuildings. A separate guesthouse/garage and a spacious barn with attic for all your garden supplies/storage room. We would like to take you along for a textual impression of the whole. Perhaps seeing is better than reading, as such a unique object is difficult to describe with words. Main house: From the Straatweg in this rural area, you can see the main house between the trees. You reach the plot through a private dam with beautiful wrought iron fencing. The front garden is landscaped with bushes and parking space for cars on the right, also on the right rear is the outbuilding, in the style of the main house, which now serves as a guest house. On the left-hand side, drive to the car park. A nice detail is that at the front there is a beautiful unobstructed view over the farmlands, here are cows, horses and sometimes rabbits/hares and meadow birds. The main entrance of the house was moved to the left during the merger of the two houses. A stately and imposing entrance through two wide doors gives you a warm welcome in this villa. A monumental reception hall with loft immediately indicates the atmosphere of this lovely family home. Lots of light, beautiful materials and beautiful views predominate here. The spacious reception hall gives access to the office at the front. The study has built-in bookcases and a gas fireplace and a nice bay window with a beautiful view over the front garden with a view of the opposite farmlands. There is also a spacious toilet room and a beautiful elm staircase to the upper floor. From the hall you can also reach the very spacious living room through two French doors, which is actually centrally located and therefore partly in the middle of the house. A lovely living room with a fireplace, oak floor (wide floorboards) and what immediately stands out: Atmosphere and feeling of space due to the high ceilings, special patio doors, the beautiful authentic details and the beautiful light. Through the hall and the living room you enter the fantastic conservatory. The English conservatory was designed and built by Vale Garden Houses, and is now the beating heart of the house. An incredibly beautiful space where light and view are central. Unobstructed views of the beautiful garden. During each season it is wonderful to stay here. The current owners have a large dining table in this beautiful space. Through the conservatory you reach the right part of the house. The right side of the house still has the original hall of the house from before the merger. The hall gives access to the front room with a bay window and the classic room en-suite doors to the back room. These rooms are now used as an evening/TV room. Through the hallway you reach the kitchen which is spacious and modern. Of course equipped with all conveniences and built-in appliances. The hall connects seamlessly to the conservatory which is located over the entire rear. There is also a staircase to the first floor located in the hall. Floor: Because the houses are merged, you can reach the upper floor via the beautiful elm staircase in the reception hall and the stairs next to the kitchen. In the hall next to the kitchen is the staircase to the first landing. This landing gives you access to a large bedroom at the front with balcony and a (bed) room which now serves as a guest room or extra dressing room. On the landing you will also find the bathroom, which was renovated in 2018 and is equipped with a bath, shower, toilet and sink. Walk through to the master bedroom which has access to the very spacious bathroom. This proverbial ballroom has a walk-in shower, bathtub with a view (over the beautiful garden), and a full-fledged sauna. Behind this bathroom there is also a practical laundry/ironing room that offers enough space for extra storage. When you take the stately staircase through the reception hall, you will reach the mezzanine. Here you will find an extra toilet room and a fourth bedroom, also with a balcony at the front. A spacious office has been realized over the entire width of the house between the bedrooms at the front. With some adjustments to this upper floor, extra bedrooms can be realized as desired. The house also has a cellar and 2 spacious attics, where the heating system is located. Outbuildings: There are two outbuildings on the plot. To the right of the house is an outbuilding built in the same style as the main house which is practical for extra storage space or can serve as a garage. This may also be an ideal workplace or guesthouse for an au pair or any guests/family who would like a separate stay. On the first floor of this building there is a very spacious bedroom with shower room and in the back on the ground floor a simple kitchen with a separate combi boiler. There is also a garden shed in the garden, perfect for overwintering container plants and more than enough storage for your garden tools, boat equipment and garden furniture. To the right of the house is a wooden shed for bicycles and other storage. The zoning plan allows the construction of an additional outbuilding or outdoor swimming pool. Garden: the beautifully landscaped and well-kept garden offers you an ultimate oasis of peace/privacy and relaxation. Several terraces and intimate seating areas alternate and ensure that you can find a pleasant place to relax everywhere. The back of the garden borders the riverVecht. Here you have a decent jetty for a boat. You can sail to the Loosdrechtse Plassen and to the surrounding villages of Maarssen, Breukelen, Loenen aan de Vecht, etc. Even the cities of Utrecht and Amsterdam can be reached by boat. Garden and experience: We would like to give the floor to the owner who has lived here for more than 32 years and has made wonderful memories. The owner speaks: Living outside, in peace and privacy, but still having the opportunity to walk to the flower market in Utrecht or listen to a concert in the Concertgebouw within 20 minutes! Working abroad was easy with good connections to Schiphol airport. This, in our view, historic, house with the lovely garden has brought us so many beautiful things over the past 32 years. Everything was possible: dinners for 30 people in the beautiful conservatory, barbecues for large groups, house concerts, business events, boat trips on the Vecht. And of course, gardening in peace! We have made wonderful memories here, together with our children, and we hope that the next owners will do the same.

The lot also includes a spacious outbuilding (formerly a garage) that has been converted into a fully furnished guesthouse.This delightful detached villa is beautifully situated between the villages of Breukelen and Maarssen, making it an ideal base for families with children, who can easily cycle to Breukelen and/or Maarssen. But its central location between Utrecht and Amsterdam is certainly a major plus as well. You can be in Utrecht or Amsterdam within 30 minutes.Mid Slangevegt is a typical 1930s home, carefully and robustly built with an eye for detail and featuring the many beautiful details and architectural features of that era. They certainly knew what they were building back then!The house features a distinctive pyramid roof with a beautiful “overhang” and, on the Vecht side, an eye-catching veranda. This is a hallmark of the house that many in the Vecht region will certainly recognize. From the Vecht, the house is clearly visible in all its glory. Layout: Through the large front door, you are welcomed into the vestibule (entrance hall). A large pivot door with original glasswork provides access to the central hall, which is also the heart of the house with its beautiful oak staircase.Here you will find a restroom with a shower, the stairwell closet with a small storage area, the passageway to the kitchen, and two doors leading to the former en-suite living room. The hall is beautifully adorned with large, original marble tiles. As mentioned, the spacious living room was formerly divided by the en-suite into two sitting rooms, one on the street side and one on the Vecht side. Now it is one large living room featuring a fireplace and an old oak floor. The sunroom, which was later added to the south side of the house, is accessible through the living room. From this beautiful, spacious living room, you have a stunning view of the garden, the lovely surroundings, and especially the river “the Vecht.”The kitchen is accessible from the hallway. The kitchen is now a separate kitchen-dining room with a door leading to the veranda. The kitchen features an original built-in cupboard, a cooking area (gas), a countertop with a sink, and plenty of cabinet space.Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room, which offers ample space for additional storage, refrigerators, and possibly even the washer and dryer. The boiler room is also located here. The veranda is accessible via the kitchen. Here, you can enjoy both indoor and outdoor living throughout all seasons. In early spring, you can soak up the first rays of sunshine, and in the late evening hours, you can still sit under cover. Pure enjoyment!Upper Floor: The beautiful oak staircase leads to the upper floor. Here you’ll find the master bedroom, a large additional bedroom at the front, a smaller room currently housing the washing machine, and a study that shares the dormer window with the master bedroom. There is also a spacious bathroom here, equipped with a bathtub, shower, and a vanity unit with two sinks. From the landing, a loft ladder leads to the very spacious attic.Outbuilding: The original garage has been converted into a small apartment. It features its own kitchen, a small bathroom, a spacious bedroom, and a lovely living room. Ideal for older children who want their own space or for guests. The outbuilding has its own central heating system, which is outdated. A spacious storage area in the attic is also accessible via a loft ladder.Shed: A spacious and well-maintained shed is located on the left side of the house. The shed is equipped with electricity, and an additional “man cave” seating area has been created next to it. There is ample storage space here, along with a small bar and an outdoor kitchenette. The 10 solar panels are mounted on this long, flat roof.Garden: The surrounding garden provides sunshine all day long. From the rising sun on the Vecht side to the late afternoon/setting sun from the west, you’ll always find the perfect spot here in the garden. The long Vechtkade offers ample space for mooring your boat. Of course, you can also moor your boat or an additional boat in your own private slipway, ensuring it is always safely and conveniently stored. The ideal home for water sports enthusiasts.

Is ‘living by the water’ your dream? Then this semi-detached villa along the beautiful Vinkeveense Plassen might be exactly what you're looking for. Nestled between the villages of Vinkeveen and Abcoude, this green and water-rich area is a haven for water sports enthusiasts, nature lovers, and those seeking peace and privacy. Whether you’re looking to live, work, or relax, this unique home offers it all. Once you pass through the remotely operated gate, a different world unfolds. Feels Like a Detached Home This two-storey villa is part of a distinctive cube house built in 1966. The developer himself moved into number 67 and sold number 65. The current owners carried out a major renovation in 2007, and in 2021 installed maintenance-free window frames with tilt-and-turn insulated safety glass. The exterior walls were also replastered. Around four years ago, the roof was renewed. Even better, there is an approved (transferable) permit in place for a 90m² extension, granted by the municipality of De Ronde Venen. A wonderful family home by the water, offering comfort and charm — where the exceptional location truly sets it apart.UPPER FLOOR Living Area & Roof Terrace Let’s start on the upper level, the heart of the home. From here, you’ll enjoy the very best views of the surrounding water. The expansive living room opens onto the Vinkeveense Plassen through large glass doors at the rear, offering a continuous display of life on the water – boats, skiers, surfers, birds, and in the evening, stunning sunsets. A wide sliding door opens onto a large roof terrace with decking, an electric sunshade, and a safe glass balustrade. In a word, spectacular. The living room also features a modern fireplace (gas connection available).Kitchen & Bedroom The tasteful wood-look laminate floor continues seamlessly from the living room into the open kitchen. A long dining table fits beautifully between the two spaces. The sleek, modern kitchen features anthracite fronts, with a refined combination of handles, a matching backsplash, and a countertop - all finished in stainless steel. Off the kitchen is a generous bedroom. This floor also includes a guest toilet with a washbasin in the entry area.GROUND FLOOR Sleeping & Bathing Downstairs, the spacious entry hall with open staircase leads to the main living level. The master bedroom at the rear features a walk-in closet and French doors opening onto the generous garden and the covered terrace with an open fireplace. At the front is a second large bedroom, complete with electric shutters. There’s also a third room currently used as an office. The bathroom is timelessly styled in white and grey and includes a bathtub, wide vanity with cabinet and mirrored storage, and a wall-mounted toilet. A technical room is also located on this floor.Garage The spacious internal garage, with double doors, serves as a laundry room, bike storage, and general utility space. It connects directly to the entrance hallway. The garage could easily be repurposed if desired.

Attached to the side is a large conservatory with sliding glass walls on three sides, providing a fantastic place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Electricity, water, drainage, and heaters make this a comfortable space for use in all seasons. The property borders a ring canal. A wooden footbridge leads to the expansive grass field and wooded area on the other side, owned by the water board. For a symbolic fee, this land can be rented, provided the tenant handles the maintenance. Management of the ring canal itself remains the responsibility of the water board.ABOUT THE AREA Vinkeveen During the boating season, Vinkeveen comes alive. The village has a supermarket, bakery, butcher, pharmacy, fashion store, and several charming restaurants, including The Harbour Club, located just at the entrance of your street. Primary and secondary schools are available in both Vinkeveen and nearby Abcoude, each within cycling distance from the home. Vinkeveen also has a local football club and a very active tennis club, as well as a sailing school that organizes events regularly.Boating How wonderful to go directly from your boathouse or jetty out onto the water. Within a minute you can reach the open Vinkeveense Plassen via the canal. This lake system, also connected to the Loosdrechtse Plassen, the picturesque Vecht River, and further on to Utrecht, is ideal for day trips. A boat outing to Amsterdam is always a pleasure. Moor somewhere for a drink or dinner, or do your grocery shopping in Vinkeveen – all by boat. This villa is the perfect home base for it all. Or hop on a bike and explore the countryside. The Vinkeveense Plassen feature 12 sand islands and hundreds of small plots of land (legakkers), home to a wide variety of bird species. The area combines nature and recreation in perfect harmony, with sailing, diving, waterskiing, surfing, and swimming all part of daily life. Did you know the swimming water here is among the cleanest in the Netherlands?Accessibility Via the nearby A2 motorway (exits Vinkeveen or Abcoude), both Amsterdam (15 minutes) and Utrecht (25 minutes) are quickly and easily reached by car.

Amsterdamsestraat 7 – Character, Space, and History in One Home In the heart of the historic center of the picturesque fortified town of Muiden lies a true gem: a detached monumental town farmhouse dating back to 1808. This municipal monument beautifully combines authentic charm with modern comfort in a truly unique location. Original features such as sturdy wooden beams, a distinctive façade, and characteristic stable windows lend the property an atmospheric and characterful appearance that keeps its rich history alive. This unique farmhouse was completely and carefully renovated in 2021 with an eye for detail. Historically, the house was functionally divided into a summer and winter section: the larger part was used during the colder months, while the smaller was sufficient for the summer, when life moved more outdoors. That original layout has been preserved, offering a unique flexibility today. The home can still easily be split into two separate units, each with its own electricity, gas, and heating systems. This makes it perfect for a studio, practice space, home office, or a comfortable guest accommodation. In short, a multifunctional home offering both character and comfort. Inside, you'll find generous living spaces bathed in natural daylight from windows on all sides, creating an open and airy atmosphere. The spacious, southwest-facing city garden is a rare find in such a central location — a private green oasis of peace and quiet. This exceptional property is just a stone’s throw from the historic Muiderslot castle, the river Vecht, cozy restaurants, and the marina. With Amsterdam only a 15-minute drive away, you enjoy the perfect balance: tranquil living with the vibrant city always within easy reach. Layout of the House Ground Floor: Upon entering through the hallway, you step into the bright and spacious living room with an adjoining dining area. The living room features the former entrance, which has now been transformed into a practical utility space with washer and dryer connections — neatly concealed and efficiently used. The open living space flows seamlessly into the modern kitchen, equipped with French doors leading outside. The kitchen includes a generous cooking island with an induction cooktop, a stylish designer extractor hood, and a cozy breakfast bar. Along the side wall, you’ll find a sink, built-in dishwasher, combi steam oven, and a spacious refrigerator. There is also a second exit to the garden from the kitchen. Also on the ground floor are a separate toilet with a washbasin, an individual shower room with sink, and a multifunctional room that can serve as an office or bedroom — making the house ideal for ground-floor living. Additionally, there is another room at the front of the house that can be used as a bedroom or office. First Floor: From the living room, a staircase leads to the spacious master bedroom with an en-suite luxury bathroom. The bathroom features a bathtub, a vintage-style vanity with double sinks, and a toilet. This floor also offers ample storage space through built-in wardrobes and a walk-in closet. At the front of the house, a separate staircase leads to the final bedroom, which also includes an adjacent storage area. The garden is accessible from the street side, through two entrances from the kitchen and the adjoining garden/TV room, both with French doors opening to the outside. In the garden, there is a large storage building with a covered section that can be used for bikes and more. This detached town farmhouse offers a rare combination of character, comfort, and space — ideal for anyone seeking to live in Muiden’s historic center without compromising on privacy or livability. A charming place where living, working, and relaxing come together — and where every moment feels like coming home.
