Oostdam 133441 EN WoerdenVogelkwartier

With due pride we present to you this magnificent detached villa – aptly named “Eldorado”. This national heritage property is situated within walking distance of both the historic centre of Woerden and the nearby Bredius estate. Set on an impressive plot of no less than 1,280 m² of private land along the Oude Rijn, there is even the opportunity to moor your boat at your very own pier. In addition to the spacious villa, a brand-new double garage with an upper guest accommodation has been built on the grounds. Adjoining the garage, a conservatory has been installed, offering splendid views over both the garden and the river. In every detail, this home exudes the allure you would expect from such a villa. Its characterful architectural features have been carefully preserved in exceptionally good condition, while every effort has been made to adapt it into a comfortable residence that meets the needs and demands of 2026. Special attention has been given to the truly gorgeous garden that surrounds the home. Alongside various terraces, a lawn and a colourful array of flowering plants, you will find an ancient chestnut tree, a Spanish oak, weeping trees and a weeping willow. A tall, green hedge further ensures ample privacy. The historic town of Woerden has existed since Roman times, and in the Middle Ages (in 1372) it was granted city rights. Many noteworthy monuments from this period have been preserved, including Woerden Castle, the tower mill De Windhond, the Het Stedehuys City Museum and several churches. For those seeking a lively atmosphere, the centre of Woerden is an excellent destination. Enjoy a memorable meal at Stadshotel Van Rossum, Bistronoom Woerden or JanZen, or savour a glass of wine in the summer sunshine or a cappuccino on one of the many terraces in town. Woerden is nestled in the Groene Hart, just a short distance from the cities of Utrecht and Gouda, while Amsterdam and even ‘s-Hertogenbosch are easily accessible – by car or train, with the station only a few minutes’ cycle from Oostdam. In short, Woerden is the ideal town where you can enjoy all the delights of urban living without the bustle of larger cities – a safe environment in which to raise your children. It is impossible to fully describe everything this home has to offer; we would be delighted to show you around during a viewing. Please find a brief summary of the highlights below. Upon entering the hall of this delightful family home, one is immediately struck by the high ceilings and the unique atmosphere created by the careful interplay of colours and materials. On the ground floor there are three distinct living areas. First, a lounge featuring stunning wallpaper, a large fireplace and French doors opening out onto the garden. Adjoining the lounge is an atmospheric dining room, ideal for enjoying intimate meals with friends and family. In addition, a play/TV room is located at the front of the house. The spacious open-plan kitchen, which has been thoughtfully enlarged and connected to the lounge via the conservatory, is modern and features an island with every imaginable built-in appliance. From the kitchen there is also access to the wine cellar – which occupies part of the lower level and also houses the technical installations. The first floor comprises three rooms. The master bedroom boasts a magnificent view over the town and includes an en-suite bathroom. The other two rooms, currently set up as elegant studies, can of course also function perfectly as bedrooms. The second floor is similarly appointed with three bedrooms and a further full bathroom. At the rear of the garden stands the newly built garage, which provides parking space for two cars as well as storage for bicycles and garden equipment. Above the garage is a guest accommodation (alternatively suitable for housing an au pair) complete with its own toilet, bathroom and a combined living/bedroom area. To keep electricity consumption under control, 22 solar panels have been installed – generating sufficient power to even charge an electric car. Both the photographs and the floor plans provided here offer an excellent insight into the property. Should this interest you, we warmly invite you to arrange a viewing at your leisure. We will be delighted to give you a personal tour and share all the details and insider knowledge about this exceptional home and its equally remarkable location.
