LUXURY COUNTRY HOME WITH A BEAUTIFUL ENCLOSED GARDEN AND ENERGY LABEL A Situated in a highly sought-after, private location on the edge of the “Silver City” of Schoonhoven, this characteristic thatched farmhouse (272 m²), originally dating from 1914, was almost entirely rebuilt in 2008. The property has been finished with great care, using high-quality materials, and features a spacious living area, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a study. The adjacent detached outbuilding (143 m²) was also rebuilt in 2008 with attention to detail and sustainability, and has been designed as a fully functional living space. It is ideally suited as a guesthouse, a relaxing lounge area for children, a home for informal care, or for operating a bed & breakfast. The estate is situated on a beautifully enclosed 2,000 m² plot completely surrounded by water, offering privacy and the tranquility of island living. The lush, professionally landscaped garden invites meaningful outdoor living: late summer evenings under the veranda or in the rear garden house, a fire in the garden, and children playing in and around the water. It is not only a unique residential experience, but also an ideal environment for children, with ample outdoor space, minimal traffic, and scenic surroundings. Schoonhoven—renowned for its rich history, charming city center, and extensive amenities—is located nearby. Its terraces, shops, schools, and cultural appeal as the Dutch Silver City make everyday life both practical and inspiring. Situated in the heart of the “Green Heart” near the River Lek, the location is ideal for walking, cycling, and enjoying nature. This rural manor combines country living with the comforts of a vibrant town. Utrecht, Rotterdam, Gouda, and Gorinchem are only 30 minutes away; The Hague, Leiden, Haarlem, and Amsterdam are also easily accessible. A PLACE WHERE TRANQUILITY, SPACE, AND OUTDOOR LIVING MEET A private bridge with a remote-controlled wrought-iron gate provides access to the fully paved courtyard with generous parking. Entry to the manor is located along the side of the property, opening into a grand reception hall with double-height ceilings, an impressive staircase, and mezzanine. From here, you access the living room with open kitchen, study, toilet, utility room, and upper floor. The expansive living area (approx. 75 m²) is truly breathtaking. Large floor-to-ceiling folding doors on two sides provide panoramic views and seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living. A glass partition divides the space into a generous lounge area and dining section. The floor features large tiles with underfloor heating. The luxury Bulthaup kitchen with island includes an induction hob with ceiling-integrated extractor, fridge-freezer, Liebherr wine cooler, steam oven, built-in Miele coffee machine, plate warmer, and oven. The raised bar table offers the perfect setting for entertaining guests. The adjacent utility room (approx. 8 m²) offers additional storage, a sink, and direct access to the garden. The front room (approx. 28 m²), with its own entrance, is currently used as a study and includes extensive built-in cabinetry, including the electrical panel. Its calming ambiance also suits use as a TV lounge or relaxation space. EVERY ROOM SPACIOUS AND BEAUTIFULLY FINISHED A sweeping staircase leads to the first-floor landing with mezzanine. From here you reach the master suite (with en-suite bathroom, wellness area, and walk-in closet), three bedrooms, a second bathroom, laundry room, and separate toilet. The entire level features solid Jatoba hardwood flooring and exposed beams. The master suite (approx. 47 m²) boasts impressive ceiling height. A mezzanine level houses a wellness area with sauna. The adjoining bathroom includes an oversized double walk-in shower, jacuzzi, underfloor heating, double washbasin with cabinetry, and extensive storage. The walk-in closet completes the space. The two rear bedrooms (each approx. 20 m²) include mezzanine levels and access to the balcony. The fourth bedroom (approx. 12 m²) is ideal as a guest room or children’s room. The second bathroom (approx. 7 m²) includes a jacuzzi, walk-in shower, washbasin with storage, and underfloor heating. Garden: A Private Oasis Surrounded by Water The expansive landscaped garden features fruit trees, magnolias, hydrangeas, and mature trees that provide a park-like atmosphere. Multiple terraces sit alongside the house, by the water, and at the fully pile-supported garden house (27 m²), offering a place to enjoy the outdoors at any time of day. A robotic lawnmower maintains the lawn, while irrigation and drainage systems ensure optimal soil conditions. Decorative lighting illuminates key trees after dusk. THE ADJACENT OUTBUILDING IS MULTIFUNCTIONAL AND FULLY EQUIPPED. The detached outbuilding also has energy label A and offers numerous possibilities for children, family, or guests. It is equally well suited for commercial use, such as a charming bed & breakfast. The rural setting combined with the appeal of Schoonhoven makes it highly attractive for guests seeking peace and authenticity. The property has its own entrance, leading into a large recreational space (approx. 60 m²)—perfect for gatherings, entertainment, or relaxation. At the rear is the spacious kitchen-diner (approx. 40 m²), featuring a new kitchen and French doors opening onto a private terrace. There is also a laundry room and a separate toilet. A fixed staircase leads to the first-floor landing, where you will find ample built-in storage and access to a large bedroom, a dressing room, a recently renovated bathroom, and a separate toilet. The dressing room can easily be converted into a second bedroom.
