Spacious Farmhouse with Equestrian Facilities in Hellendoorn
Key Features
Description
Located along the Olthofsweg in the buitengebied (countryside) of Hellendoorn, this farmhouse offers approximately 390 square metres of living space situated on a plot of over 13,000 square metres, equivalent to roughly 1.3 hectares. The property is positioned between the Regge river and the Sallandse Heuvelrug, one of the most notable nature reserves in the province of Overijssel. The original structure dates back to 1920, though significant renovations and additions have been carried out in recent years.
The farmhouse presents itself with a characteristic rural appearance, featuring red brickwork and a roof that combines both thatch and tiles. The property includes multiple outbuildings, a spacious driveway, and surrounding landerijen (farmland) that contribute to its distinctive character. In 2020, a modern extension was added to the original building, creating a contrast between the authentic farmhouse and contemporary living comfort.
The newer section of the residence contains a generous living area combined with a luxury kitchen. This space features large window sections and sliding doors that provide ample natural light and views of the garden and surrounding greenery. The kitchen is equipped with built-in appliances and offers sufficient space for a large dining table and a comfortable seating area. This section also includes underfloor heating, double glazing in plastic window frames, and a recently installed bathroom.
The ground floor layout includes multiple entrances, halls, and corridors. There are several living rooms, the main living area with kitchen as described, a second kitchen, utility rooms, multiple bathrooms, toilets, storage spaces, and various rooms that can serve as bedrooms, offices, dining rooms, or hobby spaces. The floor plan demonstrates that a considerable amount of living space is available on the ground floor alone.
The first floor accommodates additional bedrooms, landings, and storage areas. In total, the property contains twelve or thirteen bedrooms depending on classification. The front section of the upper floor has four bedrooms, while the rear section has three. The rear portion of the first floor requires some attention but offers potential for additional sleeping quarters, workspaces, or guest rooms.
The current configuration makes the property particularly suitable for dual occupancy, multi-generational living, or as accommodation for a large family. The layout could accommodate living parents, adult children seeking independent living space within the family home, or those requiring care facilities. The property could also lend itself to use as a guest house, home-based practice, office space, or holiday rental, subject to applicable regulations and permits.
The plot extends to approximately 1.3 hectares and is divided across three cadastral numbers. The land includes a maintained garden with multiple terraces and seating areas. A canopy was installed in 2024, providing a sheltered outdoor seating area. There is also a separate covered lounge spot in the garden. The rear section of the plot has been designed as a natural garden, contributing to a relaxed and green atmosphere.
A significant portion of the plot has been arranged for horse keeping according to the Paddock Paradise principle. Previously, the property accommodated three horses and four small ponies. There are two horse stables with canopies that served as loose housing for the horses, plus a small shelter stable for the ponies. A 20 by 40 metre riding arena is connected to the paddock. From the property, direct access is available to sandy paths leading towards the Sallandse Heuvelrug, offering extensive riding opportunities.
Additional outbuildings include a freestanding wooden storage shed, a horse stable placed in 2018, and a second barn installed in 2021. These structures provide practical space for storage, feed, materials, machinery, or hobby use.
The property has undergone several notable improvements. The roof was renewed in 2020 with a combination of thatch and tiles. In the same year, the new living extension was added, the driveway was laid, and plastic window frames with double glazing were installed. Two CV boilers were replaced in 2022. Sixteen solar panels were installed in 2023. The canopy was added in 2024. The property also has two water softeners and mechanical ventilation.
The current energy label is rated G, though the listing notes that this label is not recent and does not accurately reflect the current state of the property, as various improvements have been made since the label was issued. The property has largely double glazing and features both central heating and partial underfloor heating.
The location combines rural living with practical accessibility. Hellendoorn village and the larger town of Nijverdal are within reach, offering shops, schools, hospitality venues, sports facilities, and daily amenities. The Sallandse Heuvelrug nature reserve, with its forests, heathlands, and rolling landscapes, provides opportunities for walking, cycling, and horse riding.
While the newer section of the property is modern and comfortably finished, parts of the older section, particularly the rear area and upper floor, would benefit from further attention and renovation. This aspect may appeal to buyers seeking a property where they can apply their own vision and finish the spaces according to their preferences.
The property is offered at 1,150,000 euros costs buyer (k.k.), which translates to approximately 2,949 euros per square metre of living space. The transfer is subject to negotiation regarding the completion date. The property is classified as a detached farmhouse with the specific characteristic that dual occupancy is possible.
