**This property is listed by a certified expat broker.**

A HOUSE TO EXPERIENCE
On the edge of Kortenhoef, amidst greenery, meadows, and water, stands this characterful detached farmhouse. A house with 239 m² of living space on 839 m² of private land, where space and atmosphere come together in a unique way.
Once inside, one room follows another, revealing how surprisingly and playfully the house is laid out. Large living spaces alternate with more intimate rooms, views through, and authentic details. A house to discover and, above all, to experience.
The property was extensively renovated in 2009 with great attention to its original character. The original barn doors, visible roof trusses, and beamed ceilings were combined with generous spaces, plenty of light, two fireplaces, and French doors leading to the garden.

SPACE TO LIVE
Through the characteristic barn door, you enter the spacious eat-in kitchen: a true living space with a kitchen island, fireplace, and French doors to the outside. The utility room is located adjacent.
From the eat-in kitchen, you reach the impressive central hall. The void, landing staircase, visible roof trusses, and overhead light make this a special space and form the heart of the house.
From the hall, you enter the very spacious living room, featuring a second fireplace, views of the water, and French doors leading to the garden. Additionally, there is an en-suite room and two separate rooms that are perfectly suited as a study, library, studio, playroom, or bedroom.
It is precisely this succession of different spaces that gives the house its distinctive character: spacious where possible, intimate where desired.
On the ground floor, there is a hand-scraped wooden floor, fitting the character of the farmhouse. The eat-in kitchen, hall, and functional spaces feature a characterful stone floor with underfloor heating.

SPACE TO LIVE
The bright landing overlooks the hall and the stairwell. Here too, the wooden floor and the visible authentic roof structure define the atmosphere.
There are three bedrooms on the upper floor. The master bedroom features a private en-suite bathroom with a bathtub, shower, double sink, and toilet. For the remaining bedrooms, there is a second bathroom with a shower, sink, and toilet.
In total, the house features four bedrooms, one of which is located on the ground floor. On the upper floor, there is the possibility to create an extra fifth bedroom if desired.

OUTDOOR LIVING BY THE WATER
The property also offers various spots and atmospheres outdoors.
On the kitchen side, there is a spacious terrace with views of the garden, the canal, and the meadows. There is a private jetty, and from here you can sail towards the lakes and the Vecht river.
On the other side lies the spacious, secluded south-facing garden, with various spots to enjoy the sun throughout the day. The garden room with fireplace and the shed are also located here.
There is also a swimming pool in the garden, currently covered with a winter cover and unused this season. It is up to the new owner to choose whether to put the pool back into use, modify it, or repurpose the space. On the property, there is ample parking both in front of and next to the double garage, concealed from view by the beech hedge.

COUNTRY LIVING, WITHOUT BEING FAR AWAY
Kortenhoef is situated in the heart of the characteristic landscape of the Gooi and the Vecht region, surrounded by water, nature, and the Kortenhoef and Loosdrecht Lakes. The forest is within walking distance, and for daily amenities, you can go to Kortenhoef itself.
Hilversum is just around the corner, and Amsterdam and Utrecht are also easily accessible. This location thus combines the feeling of country living with the amenities and dynamism of the city within reach.

A HOUSE TO EXPERIENCE
On paper, the figures are generous: 239 m² of living space, 839 m² of private land, multiple living and working rooms, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a double garage, a waterfront location, and views over the meadows.
But precisely what makes this farmhouse special is difficult to express in square meters.

The sequence of spaces.
The views through.
The light.
The wood.
The water.
And time and again, a different spot in the house or garden.

A house to step into, discover, and experience.
