Description
Aan Matenweg 1 is a detached villa built in 1998 located in the rural outskirts of Wekerom. The property sits on a parcel of land measuring 8,113 square metres, providing ample space for outdoor activities and privacy. The house offers a total living area of 313 square metres spread over two floors and a practical basement level. The design includes a covered entrance that opens into a spacious hall. From this hall the visitor can access most rooms on the ground floor. The ground floor hosts a dedicated office space, a utility room with a meter cupboard, a small toilet with a wall mounted flush system and a decorative fountain, a bedroom with an adjoining bathroom, a staircase leading to the first floor, the basement area, and the kitchen.
The kitchen is arranged in a practical corner layout and is equipped with built in appliances such as an induction cooktop, an extractor hood, a dishwasher, a refrigerator and a combination oven. Adjacent to the kitchen is a living and dining area that benefits from a gas fired fireplace and a large bay window. The bay window provides a view of the carefully landscaped garden. A sliding door allows the living area to be separated from the kitchen when desired. The living area is bright and welcoming, and the fireplace adds a warm focal point for the colder months.
The bedroom on the ground floor is generous in size and includes a fixed wardrobe. Direct access from the bedroom leads to a full bathroom that features a bidet, a wall mounted flush system, a whirlpool bathtub, a steam shower, and a double sink vanity. The bathroom is finished with quality fixtures and offers a spa like experience. Adjacent to the bedroom is a utility room that includes connections for a washing machine and a dryer and provides direct access to the garden. From the utility room a second room on the ground floor can be reached. This second room is suitable for use as an additional bedroom, a hobby room or a work space and also includes a fixed wardrobe.
The property also contains an attached garage that is accessed from inside the house. The garage is equipped with an electric door, making it convenient to use. The entire ground floor, except for the bedroom, benefits from under floor heating, providing a comfortable indoor climate throughout the year. A practical basement level offers additional storage space or can be adapted for other uses.
The first floor is reached via a staircase that leads to a landing with a high ceiling. From the landing three well proportioned sleeping rooms are available together with a spacious storage area. Two of the rooms are located at the rear of the house, one of them includes a dormer window and a fixed wardrobe. The adjacent space is currently used for storage but is prepared for the installation of a bathroom in the future. The third sleeping room is positioned at the front of the house, also features a dormer window, a wash basin and multiple built in storage units.
The surrounding garden is one of the most significant assets of this property. The free standing location creates an open outlook over the surrounding landscape. The garden is designed with a large lawn, decorative paving, several green borders, a pond and a fountain. Mature trees and shrubs give the area a park like atmosphere. The extensive garden provides a setting for outdoor recreation, gardening or simply enjoying the natural surroundings. In addition to the garden, a separate stone garage on the grounds offers space for a vehicle as well as storage for tools or hobby equipment. The property also includes ample parking space on the land, ensuring that guests can be accommodated easily.
Although the villa is set in a quiet rural environment, essential services and daily amenities of Wekerom are within a short driving distance. The location also provides convenient access to the National Park De Hoge Veluwe and the Wekeromse Zand, both of which offer extensive opportunities for walking, cycling and other recreational activities in nature. The combination of privacy, land size, high quality interior finishes and proximity to natural attractions makes the property a compelling option for families or individuals seeking a spacious rural residence.
Technical details of the house include a roof covered with tiles, a full insulation package, and a heating system based on a gas fired combination boiler installed in 1998. The heating system works in conjunction with a gas fireplace and partial under floor heating. The property is classified with an energy performance label of C.
