Modernized Dike House with Spacious Garden and Open Views

This detached dike house is located on Middelsluissedijk in the countryside area of Numansdorp, part of the Hoeksche Waard municipality. The property offers a generous living experience with a usable floor area of approximately 180 square meters and sits on a substantial plot of 1,290 square meters of owned land. Built in 1925, the residence has undergone significant modernization in 2016, while maintaining its characteristic appearance as a traditional dike dwelling.

The exterior of the property received professional attention in 2025 when the boarded dike facade was completely renovated and rebuilt. This extensive renovation included the installation of a water-resistant layer, insulation below ground level, a drainage system, bubble wrap film, wooden framing with paneling, multiple foil layers, and insulation ranging from approximately 400 to 600 millimeters in thickness. Additionally, the painting of the window frames was professionally completed in 2025, and the main radiators were replaced during 2024 and 2025.

Access to the home is through the rear entrance, which leads into a spacious and bright hall featuring a vide (an open space extending to the upper floor), meter cupboard, toilet, staircase, and doorways to both the living room and kitchen. The living room creates a warm atmosphere through its attractive wooden floor, an impressive mantelpiece with an open fireplace, and French doors opening to the garden. From this room, occupants can enjoy views across the garden toward the adjacent pear orchard. The dining area connects naturally with the kitchen, which is equipped with a sink island incorporating cabinet space, a wall unit with refrigerator and storage, and a second wall unit containing a seven-burner gas stove including a wok burner, multiple ovens, a dishwasher, and ample cupboard space.

From the kitchen, the utility room can be reached both internally and via the garden. This practical space houses the central heating combination boiler, installed in 2022 and manufactured by Remeha, along with connections for laundry appliances. Adjacent to the utility room is direct access to a spacious room suitable for use as either a bedroom or home office. The hall also contains a hatch providing access to a cellar space for additional storage.

The first floor is reached via the staircase and features a landing giving access to three bedrooms and the bathroom. The master bedroom includes a dormer window and offers a wide, open view across the surrounding landscape. One of the other bedrooms features a playful vide that makes it particularly appealing as a children's room. The modern bathroom is fully equipped with a walk-in shower, a freestanding bathtub, a hanging toilet, and a vanity unit with double sinks.

The garden is undoubtedly one of the most notable features of this property. Facing the sunny southwest and predominantly situated to the right side of the residence, it provides an open view across the polder and the pear orchard located behind the property. The outdoor space has been attractively designed with multiple terraces, lawn areas, various fruit trees, and diverse planting, creating a pleasant environment for enjoying the outdoors in peace. The green surroundings attract numerous birds, and there is space for keeping small livestock, which reinforces the rural character of this location. The garden is easily accessible via the dike, and there is straightforward potential to create parking space for multiple vehicles.

The property includes a detached wooden garage with capacity for one vehicle. Parking is available both on the private grounds and in the public area. The home benefits from several modern amenities including fiber optic cable connection, TV cable, natural ventilation, and a smoke channel.

In terms of energy efficiency, the property holds a D energy label. Insulation features include roof insulation, double glazing, and wall insulation. Heating and hot water are provided by the gas-fired combination boiler.

The transfer of the property will be by agreement, with delivery possible in the summer of 2026. The property is offered at 800,000 euros, which is costs borne by the buyer. This price translates to approximately 4,444 euros per square meter of living space.

Situated in an open and rural location, this dike house offers a combination of historical character and modern comfort. The substantial plot size, the quality of recent renovations, and the unobstructed views make this a distinctive property in the Numansdorp countryside area. The careful attention paid to the facade renovation in 2025 demonstrates a commitment to maintaining both the aesthetic and structural integrity of this traditional dwelling type while incorporating contemporary insulation standards.

The total volume of the building measures 607 cubic meters. Additional spaces include six square meters of other indoor space, one square meter of building-related outdoor space, and 55 square meters of external storage.
