Light-Filled Single-Storey Living on a Sustainable Country Estate

Located on the green outskirts of Almere Oosterwold, Dorpslandgoed 't Eemgoed presents a distinctive and sustainable residential concept spanning 7 hectares. Within this setting, 82 households collectively manage the estate, develop new initiatives, and support one another as needed. The community welcomes residents of all ages and household compositions, with each person contributing in their own way to the vibrant atmosphere that characterizes this estate. The property sits directly adjacent to what will become the largest food forest in Europe.

The shared Eemhuis functions as the central hub of the community and serves as a natural meeting point for both adults and children. Residents can use this space for dining, working, exercising, hosting celebrations, accommodating overnight guests, making music, or simply enjoying coffee together. The communal grounds include vegetable gardens, orchards, animal meadows, a large play area for children, and small food forest plots. All these elements are maintained collectively so that everyone can benefit from the shared efforts.

The property itself is a fully single-storey home measuring approximately 83 square metres with a volume of 361 cubic metres. Built in 2021, the dwelling features a contemporary and notably sustainable design. The construction incorporates an earthen embankment with a planted roof, allowing the home to blend seamlessly into the surrounding landscape. The roof holds 18 solar panels with a combined capacity of 6,264 Wp, delivering a renewable energy share of 120 percent and achieving the highest possible energy label of A++++.

The mono-pitch roof design allows the ceiling height to reach 3.60 metres. In the living room, this is combined with a glass facade approximately 10 metres wide, oriented towards the southwest to capture afternoon and evening light. The positioning of the solar panels functions as a canopy that moderates high summer sun while allowing lower spring and autumn sun to enter and naturally warm the interior.

Inside, the light pine ceiling contributes a warm and natural quality to the interior space. The seamless epoxy-coated floor incorporates both underfloor heating and cooling systems, powered by a heat pump. Together with the balanced heat recovery ventilation system, these features maintain a consistent and comfortable indoor climate throughout the year. The property has no gas connection.

The open-plan kitchen is fully equipped with a Neff induction hob featuring integrated extraction, a Neff steam oven, and a Neff fridge-freezer combination. The bathroom includes a walk-in shower with heat recovery, a contemporary vanity unit, and a cupboard housing the connections for a washing machine and dryer. A separate utility room contains the heat pump, buffer tank, and heat recovery ventilation installation.

The layout is accessed via a trapezoidal front garden leading to the entrance. The central hallway provides access to all rooms. At the front of the property are the spacious bedroom, a separate toilet, and a flexible space that can serve as a study, studio, or additional bedroom. The bathroom and utility room are positioned centrally within the home.

The rear section is entirely dedicated to the generous open-plan living area and kitchen. With one designated bedroom rather than two, the living space benefits from exceptional size and versatility. This arrangement suits those who prioritize a large living area, workspace, or studio over an additional bedroom. The high mono-pitch ceiling and wide glass facade define this space as the main feature of the home, offering a light-filled and airy environment with a direct connection to the outdoors.

The naturally landscaped private garden measures approximately 70 square metres with a depth of 7 metres and a width of 10 metres. It includes a terrace, lawn, and perennial planting that transitions into the shared landscape of the estate, placing the residence within a green setting.

The property holds apartment right status (appartementsrecht) with mandatory membership of the VvE 't Eemgoed in Almere. Service costs amount to 148.17 euros per month. Parking is provided in a shared area equipped with charging stations for electric vehicles.

Key technical specifications include full insulation, complete underfloor heating, a heat recovery installation, and a warmtepomp (heat pump). The property features fibre optic cable connection, mechanical ventilation, sliding doors, and solar panels. The legal classification is existing construction (bestaande bouw) with a mono-pitch roof covered with alternative materials.

The asking price is 575,000 euros, which translates to approximately 6,928 euros per square metre of living space. The property is available for viewing and the transfer date can be negotiated. The listing notes that this represents sustainable, future-proof, and lifetime-adaptable living within the Almere Oosterwold area.

The combination of energy-efficient systems, community-oriented design, and integration with the natural environment positions this property as a residence suited for those seeking a lifestyle connected to both sustainable principles and a collaborative neighbourhood setting. The single-storey layout also supports accessibility and age-in-place living requirements.
