Key Features
Description
This truly distinctive residence, designed in the style of a head and body farmhouse (kop-rompboerderij), stands as a rare find within the heart of Schagen. Constructed in 2008 with an extraordinary level of attention to detail and finishing, this property, which is partly a municipal monument, presents a unique fusion of character, luxury, and modern sustainability. With a generous living area of approximately 266 square meters, a volume of no less than 1066 cubic meters, and situated on a spacious plot of 1947 square meters, this is a location where space, comfort, and architectural appeal converge at the highest level.
Upon arrival, the imposing facade immediately captures attention, executed with beautiful brickwork and a refined, slim joint. The elegant wooden details and characteristic round windows give the home an allure that is rarely matched. The expansive front, side, and back gardens frame the entire property and reinforce the sense of freedom and privacy. The well-maintained garden surrounds the house and is equipped with a robotic lawnmower, allowing you to enjoy the outdoors optimally without any worries regarding maintenance.
Through the double front door, you enter an impressive hall with a vide, where a stylish chandelier sets the tone immediately. The handmade staircase is a real eye-catcher and emphasizes the artisanal character of the residence. From the hall, double doors with stained glass provide access to the living areas, where atmosphere and luxury merge seamlessly. The living room is generous and light, featuring a cozy bay window at the front that offers a beautiful view to the north. The solid wood floor, smoothly plastered walls, and ceilings with ornaments and built-in spots ensure a warm and high-quality appearance.
The kitchen, like the custom work throughout the home, was realized by the renowned craftsman Ad Weel and forms a central point in the house. This space is not only stylish but also practically laid out and connects perfectly with the living room. Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room, and through patio doors, you reach the indoor veranda, where inside and outside flow effortlessly into one another. At the front of the property, there is also an office space, ideal for working from home given the increasing demand for home office solutions.
On the ground floor, there is also a comfortable bedroom with an adjoining bathroom and walk-in closet, making ground floor living possible. This feature is particularly valuable for accessibility or multi-generational living. The first floor features three spacious bedrooms, a storage cupboard, and a second bathroom. The second floor is accessible via a loft ladder and offers a practical attic storage space. The home is fully insulated and equipped with underfloor heating in all rooms, a heat pump, and no less than 58 solar panels, resulting in an exceptionally energy-efficient whole with energy label A+++. The heating system includes a combination of a heat pump, a central heating boiler, a gas fireplace, and provisions for an open fireplace, ensuring comfort throughout the year.
The detached garage of approximately 120 square meters forms a valuable addition and is furnished with a generous mancave and an attic floor. This space offers numerous possibilities, such as combining living and working or realizing a kangaroo house (a separate dwelling for family members). Storing a boat or caravan is also among the options due to the impressive dimensions and capacity of the garage. The garage itself is well-equipped with an electric door, attic, electricity, heating, and running water.
The location completes the picture. Within walking distance is the vibrant center of Schagen with a wide range of shops, restaurants, and terraces. The train station is also nearby, making cities like Amsterdam easily accessible for commuters. For relaxation, the beaches of Callantsoog and the dunes of Schoorl are a short distance away, as are extensive nature reserves and polders. Schools, sports facilities, and other amenities are within cycling distance, making this location both practical and particularly attractive. This residence is without doubt one of the most unique objects Schagen has to offer, where luxury, space, and character come together in a perfectly balanced whole.
