Description
Nestled along the idyllic river Gein, just outside Amsterdam, lies this exceptionally beautiful and fully renovated farmhouse of approximately 200 m², complete with a charming and spacious guesthouse of approximately 156 m². Here, peace, space, and sustainability come together in a truly unique way.
This characteristic farmhouse from 1865, situated on 2,500 m² of land with an orchard, was thoroughly and meticulously renovated in 2019 into a contemporary and comfortable family home with three spacious bedrooms, while fully preserving its authentic charm. The main residence boasts an energy label A, is completely gas-free, and equipped with modern installations such as geothermal heating and no fewer than 46 solar panels. In addition, the foundation has been entirely renewed, providing a solid base for the future.
The property offers a versatile collection of outbuildings. There is an atmospheric annex currently operating as a Bed & Breakfast, ideal as guest accommodation, a workspace, or for generating additional income. Furthermore, there is a spacious barn offering ample storage possibilities and featuring a cozy outdoor kitchen. There is also a greenhouse equipped with underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove, creating a unique space to enjoy the beautiful garden year-round, relax, or host intimate gatherings and celebrations.
What truly makes this property unique is its location. At the front, you overlook the picturesque waters of the river Gein, while at the rear you are surrounded by expansive meadows and the greenery of the Gaasperplas area. The Gein metro station, which takes you to Amsterdam city center in just 20 minutes, is only a 5-minute bike ride away (1.7 km). Here, you experience an unparalleled sense of freedom and nature every day, while all amenities and the city remain within easy reach.
The village of Abcoude is only a 15-minute bike ride away and offers shops, cozy restaurants and cafés, a cultural center, four primary schools, and sports clubs for hockey, football, tennis, golf, as well as a swimming pool.
In short: a move-in ready, sustainable farmhouse in a dream location, offering endless possibilities for living, working, and recreation.
Layout
From the road, you enter the property through a cast-iron gate, with the orchard on the right-hand side and space to park two (electric) cars. There is also room for two additional cars outside the gate.
Main Residence
Upon entering, you are welcomed by a spacious and inviting hallway providing access to the toilet, cloakroom, a front-facing bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a double washbasin, and the exceptionally atmospheric open-plan living area. The living room radiates warmth and coziness, enhanced by the beautiful oak wooden flooring and the wood-burning stove, which forms a central and inviting feature.
The kitchen is stylishly separated from the living room by an elegant steel-framed partition. The country-style kitchen is a true eye-catcher and fully equipped with modern conveniences, including a Quooker, dishwasher, induction cooktop, freezer, refrigerator, and oven. The beautiful natural stone floor (French limestone tiles) contributes to the home’s characterful appearance.
At the rear, double doors open onto the terrace, where you can peacefully enjoy the sun and the stunning views at any time of day — truly a wonderful place to unwind.
Through the living room, there is access to an additional room (the former milk room), currently used as an office but also perfectly suitable as a playroom and/or TV room.
First Floor
Via the oak staircase, you reach the landing featuring additional workspace, built-in bookshelves, and space for a washing machine and dryer. At both the front and rear of the house are two large bedrooms of approximately 32 m² each, complete with built-in wardrobes and bookshelves.
Between the landing and the rear bedroom lies the spacious bathroom with a walk-in shower and Sunshower, a bathtub, and a separate toilet. There is also a built-in storage cupboard, ideal for linen storage.
The built-in air conditioning, underfloor heating and cooling, combined with the excellent insulation, ensure a comfortable and healthy indoor climate throughout both summer and winter. The solar panels and geothermal heating contribute to remarkably low energy costs.
Guesthouse
The former pigsty with hayloft has been carefully and tastefully transformed into a highly atmospheric and fully functional guesthouse of 156 m².
Through the entrance, you arrive in the hallway, which provides access to a separate toilet with connections for a washing machine and dryer. The cozy kitchen-diner features underfloor heating and offers plenty of space for a large dining table — an ideal place to gather. Naturally, this kitchen is also equipped with all necessary built-in appliances.
At the rear are two comfortable bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom featuring a shower, toilet, and washbasin, making the property particularly suitable for guests or rental purposes. From the living area, you have direct access to the beautifully landscaped private garden with terrace and panoramic views.
On the first floor is a spacious and bright second living room with a sitting area, dining area, kitchenette, large windows, and a wood-burning stove that provides extra warmth and ambiance during the winter months.
The guesthouse is connected to gas and has its own central heating boiler, allowing it to function entirely independently.
Garden
The garden has been landscaped with great care and attention to detail and is maintained in excellent condition. The entire outdoor space feels like a green oasis of tranquility, offering abundant privacy and several spots to enjoy outdoor living.
In the backyard, there is a spacious barn and a covered outdoor area with an outdoor kitchen. Several terraces are spread throughout the garden, ensuring there is always either a sunny or sheltered place to relax and enjoy the surroundings.
A particularly unique feature is the greenhouse, transformed into a wonderful “hangout” space. Thanks to the underfloor heating and wood-burning stove, this area can be comfortably used all year round — a unique place to relax, work, or gather amidst nature.
The rear views are permanently unobstructed, overlooking expansive nature and meadows with grazing cows, creating an extraordinary sense of openness and freedom.
The guesthouse also benefits from its own private enclosed garden, ensuring complete privacy. Along the side of the property lies the orchard with a trampoline and various fruit trees, adding a playful and vibrant character to the whole.
Surroundings
A short distance away lies the charming village of Abcoude, with its historic and picturesque center. Here you will find a wide variety of shops for daily groceries, including supermarkets, artisan specialty stores, and a weekly market. The village also offers several primary schools, sports clubs, and other amenities, making it an attractive residential environment for both families and lovers of peace and open space.
The property is also located near the historic town of Weesp, renowned for its charming canals, monumental buildings, and beautiful location along the river Vecht. Here, you can enjoy a peaceful village atmosphere while having all amenities within easy reach, including a secondary school.
For relaxation and recreation, the possibilities are endless. The surrounding area is ideal for long walks and cycling tours along the water, through vast meadows and nature reserves. Boat trips towards the Vecht river are also possible. In addition, the area forms part of the historic Defence Line of Amsterdam, offering beautiful routes past forts such as Fort bij Nigtevecht.
