Living with vision and potential A rare opportunity to transform a listed municipal monument with character and space entirely according to your own vision and bring it up to modern standards. HISTORY AND CHARACTER This distinctive farmhouse is a listed Brabant long-fronted farmhouse with a rich history. The property was constructed in 1874 as an agricultural homestead, characteristic of the Brabant countryside where living quarters, stables and storage were traditionally combined beneath one continuous roof. The farmhouse forms part of the historic development of the hamlet of ’t Broek, an area long defined by small-scale farming, ribbon development and a strong landscape cohesion. Over the years, the farmhouse has been carefully transformed into a residence, with its original character meticulously preserved. The house is built in hand-moulded brick and features characteristic details such as timber doors, small ‘spider-head’ windows and circular windows in the side façade. The property is crowned by a partly thatched gable roof with traditional Dutch clay tiles along the lower sections. Authentic elements remain throughout the interior, including the original timber trusses. The property is designated as a municipal monument due to its well-preserved detailing, authentic architectural style and its cultural-historical and typological significance as an example of a traditional long-fronted farmhouse. In addition, it is situated within the protected village conservation area of ’t Broek, which has been recognised since 1972 for its distinctive historic structure and buildings. This unique combination of history, character and setting makes it an exceptional and atmospheric residence with a strong connection to the agricultural heritage of Mierlo. SUSTAINABILITY The property has a more traditional energy performance and holds an energy label E. This means that insulation and installations are largely based on older standards. For example, insulation of the walls and floors is limited, and part of the glazing is outdated. The home is heated by a high-efficiency (HR) gas-fired combi boiler. Ventilation takes place through natural airflow via windows and vents, in keeping with the building’s original character. At the same time, this property offers attractive opportunities for further sustainability improvements. With targeted upgrades, such as enhancing insulation and installing modern systems, both living comfort and energy performance can be significantly improved. FRONT HOUSE In practice, the front section of the house is accessed via the driveway on the left-hand side of the property, leading through the rear garden to the kitchen-living room with wood-burning stove. Here, the atmosphere and character of this long-facade farmhouse are immediately apparent. Authentic elements are abundantly present: from wooden doors with original iron fittings—typical of the building period, with slightly lower head clearance—to plaster-on-reed ceilings and robust timber structures, all contributing to a warm and time-honoured ambiance. The kitchen-living room forms the heart of the front house and connects to the working kitchen through a distinctive trapezoid-shaped opening. The tiled floor, original beams, and the inviting fireplace with mantelpiece enhance the cosy and welcoming atmosphere. From this living space, you enjoy open views over the rear garden and the surrounding countryside, where sunsets provide a daily spectacle. The kitchen-living room also offers access to a practical cellar with natural daylight, as well as, via a few steps up, to the slightly elevated sitting room. Adjacent to the kitchen-living room is the entrance hall. From here, you reach the (bed)room at the front—traditionally known as the “goeikamer”—featuring a built-in wardrobe. The hall also provides access to a toilet and a simple bathroom with shower and washbasin. Additionally, there is a practical utility area with space for laundry appliances, located in the scullery next to the kitchen. LIVING AREA AND FIRST FLOOR Adjoining the front section of the farmhouse is the former stable area, now arranged as a living space. Here you will find a charming and spacious living/dining room featuring a tiled floor, a mezzanine reaching up to the roof ridge, and exposed wooden beams. The characteristic stable windows provide pleasant natural light, while the wood-burning stove adds warmth and atmosphere. The height, layout and authentic elements give this space both character and potential. The upper floor is accessed via a fixed staircase and offers ample possibilities. The landing leads to two bedrooms, several storage areas, a technical room with central heating boiler, and a compact shower room with washbasin. A versatile floor that can easily be adapted to suit your personal requirements. OUTBUILDING / STUDIO AND HOBBY ROOM OR GARAGE Set diagonally behind the farmhouse is a detached outbuilding (former barn), which was completely rebuilt in 1999. This versatile building is currently used as a studio by the present owner—a violinist, writer, painter, and furniture maker—and upon entering, it is immediately clear why: an inspiring, an inspiring, light-filled space where one can work in complete tranquillity. The outbuilding is fully insulated and equipped with electricity, a toilet, and a wood-burning stove. The studio itself is an open and bright space with a distinctive character, complemented by a spacious open mezzanine level featuring a fireplace. From here, you can enjoy panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. At the front of the outbuilding, there is a separate workshop or hobby room with a garden door and double doors to the outside, making this space equally suitable for use as a garage. GARDEN AND OUTDOOR LIVING The garden—approximately 85 metres deep and 42 metres wide—forms part of a generous plot of around 3,910 m² and truly defines the unique character of this property. Rather than a traditional garden, it is better described as park-like grassland with mown pathways, where nature, space, and a sense of freedom take centre stage. This not only creates a highly atmospheric setting but also makes it particularly suitable for keeping small livestock or animals. TThe garden is a mature, beautifully landscaped green setting with a rich variety of planting and characterful fruit trees, including roses, medlar, Goudrenet apple, pear, walnut and cherry. Particularly noteworthy are the two very old “Mierlose Zwarten” — rare, authentic cherry trees regarded as a source of pride in Mierlo, lending the garden a unique and historic character. Scattered across the grounds are several outbuildings, including an inviting outdoor room with a fireplace and a horse stable, enhancing the versatility and rural charm of the property. The garden offers ample privacy and space for a variety of uses, such as a kitchen garden, multiple sun and shaded terraces, or the addition of further amenities entirely to one’s own preference. At the rear, the plot is framed by a row of tall, mature deciduous trees, providing a beautiful green backdrop to the landscape. The panoramic views stretch out across the surrounding fields, with the Gulbergen forming a distinctive landmark in the distance. Here, it feels as though you are looking at a different painting every day—a view that continuously evolves with the seasons, the light, and the sky. To the left of the farmhouse, the driveway provides access to the garden and the outbuilding/garage. There is also more than ample space for parking multiple cars, motorhomes, caravans, or similar. LOCATION: CLOSE TO THE VILLAGE AND NATURE Broekstraat 59 is situated in a quiet, green setting on the northeastern side of Mierlo. The street is characterised by a mix of detached homes and charming, characterful farmhouses, creating a varied and authentic streetscape with a strong sense of space, greenery, and rural living. The property forms part of the historic hamlet of ’t Broek, an area with a rich heritage dating back centuries and now designated as a protected village conservation area. The presence of long-facade farmhouses from the period 1870–1910 gives this part of Mierlo a distinctive and largely unspoilt rural atmosphere that is still clearly tangible today. Here, you live on a generous plot, surrounded by nature and tranquillity, with open countryside and walking routes right on your doorstep. At the same time, amenities are surprisingly close: both the centre of Mierlo and Helmond Brandevoort are within easy cycling distance (approximately 2 kilometres), offering a full range of shops, restaurants, and daily conveniences. This location perfectly combines the best of both worlds—peaceful rural living with everything within easy reach.
