Description
Timeless Waterfront Living on the River Vecht, Within Easy Reach of Utrecht and Amsterdam
Properties of this calibre rarely come to market. Set along the banks of the picturesque River Vecht in the historic heart of Maarssen-Dorp, this exceptional 18th-century national monument combines rich heritage, generous living space, and breathtaking waterfront views.
Situated directly on the River Vecht, this impressive listed monument offers a unique blend of history, character, and contemporary comfort. From the living room, uninterrupted views stretch across the water, where elegant boats drift peacefully by. It is a place that offers a sense of tranquillity and escape, while Utrecht is just 10 minutes away and Amsterdam can be reached in approximately 25 minutes.
Behind its distinguished façade lies a surprisingly spacious family home of approximately 190 m². The property has been meticulously renovated with great care and craftsmanship, preserving its authentic character while seamlessly incorporating modern comforts. Solid oak flooring, a handcrafted Lodder kitchen, elegant bathrooms, and carefully selected materials create an atmosphere of understated luxury throughout.
The living room at the front of the house is one of its most captivating spaces. Here, the ever-changing views over the Vecht, the fireplace, and the beautiful period details combine to create a warm and inviting setting. At the rear of the property, the generous kitchen-diner forms the true heart of the home. A space designed for cooking, dining, entertaining, and everyday living. French doors open onto the sunny south-facing courtyard garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The location is truly exceptional. Nestled within the historic centre of Maarssen-Dorp, the property is within walking distance of artisan bakeries, wine merchants, charming restaurants, and waterside terraces. During the summer months, life along the Vecht is vibrant and full of character, offering an atmosphere that is both lively and relaxed. Despite its peaceful setting, the property enjoys excellent connections to Utrecht, Amsterdam, and the major motorway network.
With four generous bedrooms, two bathrooms, and multiple living areas, the home offers ample space for family life, working from home, or simply enjoying the comfort and flexibility that a property of this stature provides.
Schippersgracht 11 is far more than a house; it is a home with a story. A rare opportunity to own a distinguished monument in one of the most desirable locations along the River Vecht. For those seeking character, space, quality, and an exceptional waterfront setting, this is a property without equal.
