Key Features
Description
This vacation villa is situated on the park Buitenplaats Horsterwold in Zeewolde, occupying a quiet yet unique location within this special residential area. The property is a well maintained holiday home featuring a full upper floor and a well positioned garden. One of the most distinctive features of this location is that the backyard directly borders the largest deciduous forest in Western Europe, offering residents an exceptional natural setting right at their doorstep.
The villa provides accommodation comprising two bedrooms and offers generous outdoor space with a garden surrounding the property. Parking is available on the premises with two dedicated parking spaces on the owner's own land. The home is positioned centrally within the park, close to the entrance and directly across from the swimming pool facility. The park itself has been designed with ample space between properties and includes various communal amenities for residents to enjoy.
The ground floor of the property features a spacious hallway with stairs leading to the upper level. The bathroom on this floor is equipped with a combined bathtub and shower, a washbasin, and there is a separate generous toilet room. The living area is an inviting space with an open kitchen arrangement. The kitchen comes fitted with various built in appliances including a four burner gas cooktop, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, and offers considerable storage space. The entire ground floor has been finished with a neat laminate flooring, providing a clean and uniform appearance.
Moving to the upper floor, one finds two spacious bedrooms, both featuring high ceilings that add character and a sense of spaciousness to these rooms. The landing area includes a utility closet housing the central heating boiler and providing connections for a washing machine and dryer. This floor benefits from substantial window surfaces, allowing abundant natural daylight to enter the rooms. Like the ground floor, the upper level also has laminate flooring throughout.
The outdoor space is particularly noteworthy. The rear garden is expansive and entirely laid to lawn, presenting opportunities for adding a canopy or outdoor shelter, or perhaps installing a jacuzzi for relaxation. At the front driveway stands a detached wooden storage shed which has been equipped with electrical power, adding practical utility for storage of garden equipment or recreational items.
The Buitenplaats Horsterwold park offers residents a range of facilities. There is a small harbor within the park, two tennis courts for active recreation, and a jeu de boules court. The surrounding area boasts numerous cycling paths for those who enjoy exploring on two wheels. The harbor of Zeewolde, with its selection of restaurants, is nearby, and the town center of Zeewolde with all its amenities is approximately four kilometers away. This creates an environment that is peaceful and natural while still having convenient access to necessary services and dining options.
For those who need to travel further afield, the location proves to be well connected. Amsterdam can be reached in approximately forty minutes by car, Utrecht in about thirty five minutes, and the historic center of Harderwijk is roughly twenty minutes away. This central positioning makes the property accessible for weekend getaways from major urban centers.
