Historic City Farm from 1906 with Modern Comforts in Weert

Welcome to this remarkable city farm located at Roermondseweg 23 in the Groenewoud-Zuid district of Weert. This distinctive property dates back to 1906 and was originally built as a long-gabled farmhouse. Over recent years, the current owners have lovingly modernized the home while carefully preserving its historical character. The result is a move-in ready residence that combines authentic period features with contemporary comfort.

The exterior of the property immediately reveals its rich history. The original construction year is proudly displayed in the wrought iron wall anchors featuring a characteristic angel couple on the gable end. This traditional detail serves as a reminder of the building's agricultural heritage. The masonry work includes distinctive mouse tooth patterns, a decorative brickwork technique common in historic Dutch architecture.

The location of this property is exceptionally convenient for those who appreciate urban amenities. For daily grocery shopping, residents simply need to cross the street. The charming Maaspoort area, with its variety of restaurants, specialty shops, and retail outlets, is just a three minute walk away. From there, you can directly enter the historic city center of Weert on foot. The property also benefits from excellent road connections, with the A2 motorway linking Eindhoven and Maastricht reachable within approximately five minutes by car.

Entering the home through the raised entrance, you are immediately struck by the authentic doors and window frames that have been preserved throughout the renovation. The ground floor features a tiled floor and provides access to the modern meter cupboard, a storage and work room, a toilet room with a small sink, and passages leading to both the living room and the kitchen.

The work room on the ground floor is an ideal space for a home office setup. This room also includes a built-in closet and benefits from underfloor heating, making it a comfortable space for working from home throughout the year.

The L-shaped living room is particularly generous in its proportions, measuring approximately 45 square meters. Four large windows at the front of the property ensure abundant natural light enters the space. The high ceiling height further enhances the sense of spaciousness. The floor is finished with PVC planks laid in a Hungarian point pattern, and underfloor heating provides comfortable warmth. A fireplace with a pellet stove adds both visual appeal and supplementary heating, reinforcing the authentic atmosphere of the room.

The living kitchen measures over 23 square meters and serves as the true heart of the home. Installed in 2017, this kitchen is well equipped for cooking enthusiasts. It features a central island with a sink, dishwasher, and a comfortable seating area. The cooking section includes a six-burner gas hob, an extractor hood, and a double oven. Additional appliances include a refrigerator-freezer combination. An air conditioning unit was added in 2023, and the kitchen offers substantial storage space.

An adjoining utility room houses the laundry connections and provides additional storage. This room also gives access to both the rear garden and the cellar. The cellar has been maintained in its original state and features attractive trough vaults, a historic architectural element that adds character to the property.

The first floor is accessed via a wooden staircase from the kitchen, which can be closed off with a door. The staircase passes a gable end window and another air conditioning unit installed in 2023 before reaching the elongated landing. From this landing, you can access four bedrooms, a bathroom, and a closet containing the central heating boiler.

All four bedrooms are of more than excellent size. One bedroom faces the Groenstraat, while the remaining three each have their own dormer window, all installed in 2025 as part of the roof renovation. The mansard roof construction creates a remarkable sense of space on this floor.

The master bedroom stands out among the four sleeping quarters. Measuring approximately 34 square meters, this room is exceptionally large. During the recent renovation, the ceiling was raised to the ridge, exposing the ridge beam and authentic estate agent beams as striking visual features. This treatment gives the room an impressive sense of height and character.

The bathroom is equally spacious and well appointed. It features a double vanity with a cabinet, a bathtub, a toilet, a walk-in shower with a rain showerhead, and underfloor heating.

A loft ladder provides access to the attic space, which serves as practical storage area.

The outdoor spaces complement the living areas effectively. The front garden consists of a border with varied plantings. The main outdoor living space is found in the rear garden, which features multiple terraces, a lawn area, and diverse planting. Tall pleached lime trees provide significant privacy from spring through autumn. A pergola structure offers a sheltered spot for outdoor relaxation.

The property includes a garage with a steel up-and-over door and an adjacent carport, providing parking space for one vehicle. The garage houses the inverter for the twelve solar panels installed in 2023, which are mounted on the roofs of the garage and carport.

In terms of sustainability, the property has been progressively improved over the years. The home features floor insulation, cavity wall insulation, and roof insulation. All windows have double glazing, with the majority being HR++ glass. The central heating boiler is an Intergas combi boiler from 2022. The twelve solar panels, two air conditioning units, and the pellet stove contribute to reduced gas consumption.

This city farm offers a rare opportunity to live in a historically significant property that has been thoughtfully updated to meet modern standards of comfort and energy efficiency. The combination of authentic details such as the trough vaults, wide architraves, high window sills, and traditional brickwork with contemporary amenities creates a unique living experience in a highly convenient location.
