Monumental Villa with Pool and Luxury B&B in Warnsveld

The property "Het Waerle" is a monumental villa located on Rijksstraatweg 67 in the village of Warnsveld. This national monument dates back to 1862 and represents an excellent example of early eclectic architecture. The building features a block-shaped construction with a surrounding hipped roof, a central risalite with cordoning, a wooden cornice, and characteristic sliding windows. The property has been fully renovated in 1995 and largely again in 2020, and has been excellently maintained since.

Upon entering the villa, visitors immediately experience the grandeur of the house. The impressive hallway features a marble floor, while the en suite room contains original fireplaces, an open fireplace, and characteristic details that give the house a warm and representative appearance. On both sides of the corridor are a study, a work/office room with built-in cabinets and bookcases, and an attractive living kitchen at the rear with a view of the garden. The kitchen is fully equipped with built-in appliances and forms a pleasant central spot in the house. Additionally, there are practical spaces such as a utility room, cloakroom, technical room, and a spacious storage and wine cellar.

The first floor contains multiple spacious bedrooms, including a large master bedroom with dressing room and bathroom featuring a bathtub, shower, toilet, and double sink. The other bedrooms also have practical facilities such as fixed washbasins. Furthermore, there is a second bathroom, a laundry room, an attic storage, and additional storage space.

The second floor is arranged as a spacious living area with plenty of daylight, built-in cabinets, and a view over the old village of Warnsveld.

Behind the main house is the spacious coach house, which was carefully converted into a luxury bed and breakfast in 2021 and 2022. The B&B consists of two rooms, each with its own bathroom and a complete kitchen. This space is ideal for guests, family, dual occupancy, a home practice, or operation as a high-quality bed and breakfast.

The property also features a completely new modern all-season swimming pool from 2022 of approximately 9 by 4.5 meters, including a countercurrent function and a generous sun terrace. The pool is covered with solar slats and can be additionally heated with a heat pump. The technical facilities for the swimming pool are housed in a separate garden house.

In 2022, a stylish new outbuilding measuring 7.5 by 3.5 meters was also constructed on the property. This outbuilding offers ample possibilities for storage, hobby space, garden equipment, bicycles, tools, or other practical purposes. Thanks to the presence of a loft, additional storage space is available, making the space efficient and flexible to use.

For a monumental villa of this size, the energy consumption is remarkably favorable. An energy label B has recently been issued for the property, which is a particularly good performance given the size, construction period, and monumental status of the building. The house is equipped with comfortable and efficient heating facilities. Both the main house and the coach house have underfloor heating. In the main house, wall heating has also been applied in the front part, which ensures a pleasant and even heat distribution. In addition, 24 solar panels in the backyard contribute to a sustainable energy supply. Additionally, 10 extra solar panels are used through an energy cooperative in a solar field.

The garden is particularly beautifully laid out with multiple terraces, flower-rich borders, a large lawn, and plenty of privacy. At the rear of the garden is a gazebo with a small bridge over the Oude Berkel, a tributary of the Berkel river. A unique spot where peace, history, and outdoor living come together.

The property has a living area of 418 square meters, with an additional 26 square meters of other indoor space, 1 square meter of building-related outdoor space, and 24 square meters of external storage space. The total plot area is 3,848 square meters. The building has a volume of 1,929 cubic meters. The house contains 13 rooms in total, including 7 bedrooms. There are 2 bathrooms and 1 separate toilet. The bathroom facilities include a double sink, 2 walk-in showers, a bathtub, 2 toilets, underfloor heating, a vanity unit, and a washbasin.

The property extends over 3 residential floors and a cellar. Facilities include air conditioning, a skylight, fiber optic cable, mechanical ventilation, a chimney, TV cable, solar panels, and a swimming pool. The property is partially double glazed. Heating is provided by a central heating boiler, wall heating, an open fireplace, partial underfloor heating, and a heat pump. Hot water is supplied by the central heating boiler and an electric boiler. The central heating boiler is a Nefit HR65 from 2005, which is owned.

The property is located on a quiet road and features a front garden, rear garden, and side garden. Parking is available on the property and on public roads. There is also a practice room available indoors. The property is offered at an asking price of 1,875,000 euros costs to the buyer, which amounts to 4,486 euros per square meter of living space. Acceptance is by mutual agreement.

The village of Warnsveld is located in the municipality of Bronckhorst in the province of Gelderland. The location in the old village center offers a combination of historical charm and modern conveniences. Despite the central location in the village, the property benefits from a peaceful setting thanks to the spacious plot and thoughtful garden layout.

The architectural style of the villa reflects the early eclectic period, a movement in the second half of the nineteenth century that combined elements from various historical styles. This is visible in the balanced facade composition, the characteristic window frames, and the carefully detailed cornices. The interior preserves numerous authentic elements that have been carefully maintained during the various renovations. These include original wooden floors, fireplaces, en suite doors, built-in cabinets, and the remarkable back door with fanlight and cast-iron tree of life.

The conversion of the coach house into a B&B demonstrates the thoughtful approach to the renovation of the entire property. The work was carried out in 2021 and 2022 with great care for both the historical character and modern comfort requirements. The result is a hospitality space that meets contemporary standards while respecting the historical context of the ensemble.

The property offers various usage possibilities. The current configuration supports luxurious single-family living with the option of hosting guests in the B&B. The practice room and office spaces make the property suitable for working from home. The B&B could potentially be operated as a commercial enterprise, providing additional income. The separate coach house also offers possibilities for dual occupancy or housing family members while maintaining privacy for all parties.
