Welcome to the picturesque 'Land van Maas en Waal', where rural outdoor living truly comes into its own. This charming farmhouse sits on a generous plot of more than one hectare and offers beautiful, unobstructed views across the surrounding fields. Here you can enjoy peace, space and greenery every day, with ample opportunities to keep horses, ponies or other hobby livestock at home. Close to the wide river landscape, yet also near the beautiful woods of the Heerlijkheid estate: ideal for wonderful hacks and walks. In short: a unique place where living, nature and freedom come together perfectly. The house was originally built around 1958, but over the years it has been renovated and modernised in stages and has always been well maintained. The property has a generous volume of approximately 1,192 m³. Of this, around 146 m² is living area (the actually occupied living space) and approximately 176 m² is other internal space (including the former stable section and the storage/attic space). Behind the house there is a large shed, roughly approx. 12 x 20 metres (total approx. 235 m²), with a lovely sunny garden room at the front measuring approx. 3 x 6 metres (approx. 19 m²). This atmospheric garden room enjoys beautiful views towards Horssen and features sliding windows—ideal on breezier days when you still want to enjoy the surroundings. The house and the shed, including the land beneath them, gardens and yard, together account for approximately 1,400 m² of the plot. Surrounding this is a further approx. 9,490 m² of agricultural land: very suitable for use as a pony, horse or hobby livestock paddock. LAYOUT OF THE HOUSE What immediately stands out about this layout: it’s super practical and pleasantly flexible. And as with many farmhouses, the front door is not in use—everyone enters via the back door on the side. You step into the spacious utility room (ideal for coats/boots, storage, laundry, or an extra fridge/freezer). There is plenty of space here for a long table, cosy drinks, extended dinners or your hobby. The spacious utility room is not only practical but also multifunctional; it lends itself perfectly as a hobby room, playroom or workspace. From the utility room you walk through to the kitchen and the bright living room with views over the meadows and the village centre. A major plus: there is a bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor, as well as a separate toilet. This makes the house immediately life-proof (ground-floor living), but also ideal if you prefer a home office, chill-out space or guest room on the ground floor. The staircase to the first floor is accessed via the entrance at the front. The fixed staircase leads to the landing, which gives access to two bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes. In short: a simple, but above all practical layout. And then there’s an extra bonus: the very spacious internal garage / former stable area. A space you can truly use in countless ways: car(s), bicycles, motorbike, hobby area, workbench, storage—you name it. Above it is also a huge attic floor (formerly a hayloft): a vast amount of storage space, but also perfect to (in time) approach creatively—think hobby room, studio, workspace or simply enormous storage. With renovation, it is of course possible to adapt the layout to your own wishes. The former internal stable space could also be converted into additional living space. CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY This characterful farmhouse breathes atmosphere and history that perfectly suits country life, but it does call for a fresh new perspective. The house is certainly still habitable, but it no longer meets today’s standards for luxury, comfort and sustainability. This offers a unique opportunity for the new owner: with a thorough, large-scale renovation and modernisation, this could become a beautiful contemporary home, entirely to your own taste and wishes. The foundation is there; the rest is a blank canvas for anyone dreaming of rural living with all the comfort of today. LIVING IN HORSSEN Living in Horssen means enjoying a real village feel in the green Land van Maas en Waal: quiet, spacious and friendly, with the river landscape of the Waal and the Maas practically around the corner. For everyday basics, Horssen already has you well covered (including a primary school and local amenities such as a village shop, a very active community centre, a tennis club, football pitches and a GP), and for a complete range of shops, additional sports facilities and education you are quickly in the larger town of Druten. And then there’s the outdoor life: just around the corner are extensive woods where you can enjoy walking and beautiful horse rides. A lovely extra detail: hidden in that same green area is a historic duck decoy on the estate. The former decoy keeper’s house, “Kweekhoven”, is even further down the street at number 12. In other words: a special piece of cultural heritage and an oasis of tranquillity. And yet, within less than 20 minutes by car you are back in the lively city centre of Nijmegen. In short: rural living with a relaxed atmosphere, while still enjoying comfort and accessibility nearby. ACCESSIBILITY Horssen is surprisingly central and very easy to reach. Via the N322 (Maas en Waalweg) you can reach the main connecting roads within minutes (including towards the A50, the A73 and even the A15), allowing you to travel quickly in any direction. Typically, Nijmegen and Arnhem are within about 20 to 30 minutes by car, and ’s-Hertogenbosch and Eindhoven are also easily accessible. For everyday amenities and regional facilities (shops, schools, sports) you are also quickly in Druten or Tiel. Public transport connections are good too: (Breng) bus services towards Nijmegen and Druten make it easy to connect to further public transport routes. And for cyclists and walkers it’s a pleasure: you can effortlessly pick up the rural dikes, country lanes and recreational routes towards the river area and the surrounding villages.
