VECHTLUST | A LIFE WELL LIVED ON THE VECHT
Nestled along the banks of the River Vecht in an exceptionally beautiful setting, Vechtlust is a characterful waterside home where tranquillity, nature and freedom come together.
Some homes are built.
Some homes are designed.
Vechtlust came into being.
Born from the water, the landscape, the changing seasons and a deep appreciation for life on the Vecht.
On one side, the river flows gently past. On the other, the open Dutch polder landscape unfolds. As a result, you enjoy two entirely different views every day, while the same feeling prevails throughout: space, serenity and a genuine connection with nature.
From the living room, the kitchen and the various outdoor terraces, the landscape constantly evolves. Morning mist drifting above the water, the first colours of spring, golden autumn evenings and reflections dancing across the river become part of daily life here.
Vechtlust offers approximately 139 m² of living space and provides a remarkably complete living experience. The generous main living floor is seamlessly connected to the outdoors. Expansive glazing draws the surrounding landscape inside, while the kitchen, featuring an Italian marble worktop, forms the natural heart of the home.
The lower floor is situated quite literally below water level and comprises a principal bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, a second bedroom, a separate home office, a spacious bathroom and a practical utility room.
Surrounding the home are multiple outdoor living spaces. A waterside terrace, a private surrounding deck with swimming ladder, private mooring, a sheltered pergola and several inviting places to enjoy the sun, the peace and the ever-changing views ensure that every moment of the day has its own favourite spot.
Vechtlust is also well prepared for the future in terms of sustainability. The houseboat is equipped with 26 solar panels, providing a combined capacity of approximately 9.1 kWp.
The location is truly exceptional. Opposite Vechtlust lies the protected natural landscape surrounding Fort Hinderdam and the Dutch Waterline. As a result, the views are not defined by buildings, but by water, trees, birdlife and the rhythm of the seasons.
Nigtevecht, Weesp, Vreeland, Loenen aan de Vecht, the Vinkeveense Plassen, Amsterdam and Utrecht are all within comfortable reach. Yet Vechtlust feels like a world of its own.
A place where the view changes every day.
And the tranquillity always remains the same.
