Key Features
Description
Watervilla Tortuga Negra represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a modern water villa of outstanding quality, situated on the eastern bank of the Vecht river between the historic towns of Muiden and Weesp. This remarkable property was completed in 2019 by the renowned shipyard De Blauwe Wimpel, known for their craftsmanship and attention to detail. The villa stands out with its generous width of 7.20 meters, offering spacious interiors and magnificent sightlines throughout the property.
The architectural design of this water villa demonstrates a thoughtful integration with its natural surroundings. The facade is constructed from black red cedar wood, a material chosen for both its durability and aesthetic appeal. The natural lines of the architecture allow the property to blend seamlessly with the waterside landscape. Large aluminum window frames, including three minimalist sliding doors from the Tudor Pure View collection, create an unobstructed connection between the interior spaces and the stunning outdoor environment. The glazing throughout the property consists of HR++ and HR+++ glass, providing excellent thermal insulation while also offering protection against solar heat gain.
Entering the property via an elegant wide walkway bridge, residents and guests are welcomed into an entrance hall that includes a practical wardrobe area and a guest toilet. The living room immediately impresses with its abundance of natural light, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and spaciousness. A natural stone feature wall adds a touch of sophistication to the space, while the smoked oak wooden flooring brings warmth and character underfoot. The room-width and ceiling-height sliding doors frame spectacular views in two directions, overlooking the Vecht river on one side and the open polder landscape on the other.
The kitchen is a custom creation by Barletti, featuring black oak cabinetry complemented by a granite worktop. This culinary space is equipped with top-of-the-line Miele built-in appliances, including an oven, combination oven, refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, and espresso machine. The Bora Professional induction cooktop with integrated extraction serves as both a practical cooking solution and a striking design element. The kitchen backsplash is finished with Alphenberg leather tiles, adding a unique textural element to this sophisticated space. Warm white LED spotlights, electrically operated screens, and a comprehensive domotica system enhance both the comfort and ambiance of the living areas.
The sleeping accommodation is located on the lower level, a configuration described as sous l'eau, meaning under water. This floor houses three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, a technical room, and additional storage space. The master bedroom benefits from a walk-in closet and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. This private bathroom features a double Corian sink with under-cabinet storage and a walk-in shower. The second bathroom maintains the same high standard of finish, offering a double Corian sink with under-cabinet, a generous walk-in shower spanning the full width of the room, and a toilet.
Throughout this lower level, the flooring consists of a PU-UV cast floor with a subtle anti-slip coating in the bathroom areas for safety. The bathroom walls are finished with exclusive Pandomo wall styling, a premium plaster system that creates a seamless, modern aesthetic. Lighting and ventilation systems are controlled via the domotica system, which also operates the heated mirrors in the bathrooms.
The outdoor spaces have been thoughtfully designed to maximize enjoyment of the unique waterside setting. Terraces constructed from durable padouk hardwood surround the property, providing multiple areas for outdoor living and entertaining. The garden design emphasizes tranquility and simplicity, featuring mature planting, a decorative pond, and automatic LED lighting and irrigation systems. On the water side, a generous terrace includes a swimming ladder for easy access to the river and a mooring facility for a boat. A fully insulated storage shed, constructed in the same style as the main residence using black red cedar, provides practical storage space of 11 square meters. Security features include cameras positioned at both the front and rear of the property.
This villa has been designed with sustainability and future-readiness as core principles. The property operates entirely on electricity, with no gas connection required. Heating and cooling are provided through a NIBE heat pump working in conjunction with Triple Solar PVT panels, which combine photovoltaic and thermal solar technology. This system does not require an outdoor unit, maintaining the clean aesthetic of the property. Floor heating and cooling systems are installed on both levels, ensuring year-round comfort. The Niko domotica system controls lighting and screen operation throughout the home, while an Aquastar water softener protects the plumbing systems. A three-phase electric vehicle charging point is installed on the property, and there is parking space for up to four vehicles on the private grounds.
The property holds an A++ energy label, reflecting its excellent sustainability credentials. Additional features include high-quality insulation throughout, aluminum window frames, and a KSB sewage pump system. The rainwater drainage system has been discreetly integrated into the facade design, maintaining the clean exterior appearance.
The location of this property offers an exceptional combination of peaceful waterside living with convenient access to urban amenities. The Vecht river provides a direct navigable connection to Muiden and the lakes of Loosdrecht, making this an ideal base for water sports enthusiasts. The historic town of Weesp, with its NS railway station and comprehensive amenities, is nearby, while the A1 motorway provides quick access to Amsterdam and the wider region.
With a total living area of 148 square meters and a volume of 519 cubic meters, this residence offers generous accommodation in a truly unique setting. The property comprises four rooms in total, including three bedrooms, along with two bathrooms and one separate toilet. The combination of spacious, light-filled interiors, high-quality finishes, sustainable technologies, and an incomparable waterside setting makes Watervilla Tortuga Negra a distinctive offering in the Dutch real estate market.
