An extraordinary location for a holiday home that stands out in every way—its panoramic views over the dunes and the North Sea, its refined design blending sleek modernity with rural charm. Here, you breathe in the pure sea air, soak up the sweeping scenery, and reconnect with nature. And yet, all modern comforts are just as you’d expect on the mainland. Craving a bit of liveliness? West-Terschelling and Midsland are just a ten-minute drive away—but why not take the bike through the dunes instead? The villa sits on a generous plot of leasehold land, as is common in dune areas. The good news: the lease has been paid in full until 2117 (!). To renovate or rebuild? That was the big question for the current owner—a builder with fond memories of summers spent on Terschelling with his Frisian family. In the end, he chose new construction. Together with leading (interior) architects from Leeuwarden, he brought his vision to life: comfort, space, and sustainability were the cornerstones. And with a location like this, connecting the home to its surroundings was a top priority. And yes—it deserved to make a bold statement, too. Distinctive by design The result is a bright, inviting villa where expansive windows bring the outdoors in—without compromising privacy. Perfect for stays with family or friends, the home features four bedrooms and three bathrooms spread across all levels. With its zinc roof, concrete walls, and timber cladding, the house has a bold yet timeless aesthetic. The finish—inside and out—is of the highest quality. The windows and tilt-and-turn frames are made of powder-coated aluminum, weather-resistant and double-glazed. The roof, floors, and walls are superbly insulated. Both the ground floor and lower level feature underfloor heating. Out back? A spacious dune garden with beach grass—a serene spot to catch the morning sun. And there’s room to park two cars on the private driveway. ABOUT THE VILLA Ground Floor Zee van Tijd spans three floors. The ground level features large-format anthracite tiles throughout. From the entrance hall, various rooms are accessible. Living Room, ‘dune room’, and terrace Step through a sleek glass door into the spacious and sun-filled living area. To the front—the Wadden Sea side—you’ll find an extended veranda, or ‘dune room’, flowing into a large open terrace. A movable glass wall creates a seamless connection with the surrounding dunes. With matching plank flooring inside and out, the veranda and terrace form a harmonious whole. It's a perfect spot in any weather. A cozy sitting area is positioned near the rear wall, offering breathtaking views of the dunes and the North Sea. A sliding door gives direct access to the wooden terrace. The living room also features a stylish fireplace with a built-in wood-burning stove. Kitchen The adjacent semi-open kitchen boasts sleek white handle-less cabinetry, an anthracite countertop, and custom wall units with integrated appliances. The induction cooktop includes a built-in extractor, and there's a Quooker for instant hot water. A full-length strip of glass above the worktop ensures uninterrupted views of the dunes and coastline, even while you cook. Bedroom & bathroom Just off the entrance hall is a spacious bedroom with an en-suite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and wide vanity. Also in the hall: a separate toilet with washbasin, a built-in storage closet, and two staircases—one leading up, one down. Upper floor The generous master suite on the top floor is elegantly styled with light walls and warm wooden accents. A custom-built wardrobe spans one wall, but what truly sets this room apart is the spectacular view.
