Elegant historic residence with extensive workshop and garden

Located at the corner of Stationsweg and Oudestraat in the heart of Neede, this distinguished property presents a rare combination of residential charm and versatile commercial potential. The building, known as ‘Aan de Voort’, dates back to around 1896 and is composed of three official addresses: Stationsweg 1, Stationsweg 1b and Oudestraat 2. The historic brick façade features segment arches above the windows, traditional window divisions with leaded glass panes and a roof covered with ceramic tiles. Some of the mortar joints have been renewed, preserving the original appearance while ensuring durability. The roof includes several dormer windows and a refined cornice that enhances the overall aesthetic.

Inside, the house retains many period details that evoke the craftsmanship of the late nineteenth century. High ceilings are complemented by ornate door and window frames, while wooden window sashes provide both character and a degree of insulation. The interior layout offers a total usable floor area of approximately 485 square metres for living purposes, an additional 165 square metres of internal space that can be used for various functions, and an external storage area of about 523 square metres. The property sits on a generous plot measuring 1,440 square metres, providing ample room for gardens, parking and future development.

The ground floor welcomes visitors with a spacious entrance hall that leads to a staircase. A small toilet with a wash basin is situated nearby for convenience. The main living area consists of a large sitting room that flows seamlessly into a formal dining room. Both rooms benefit from generous windows that flood the spaces with natural light. A set of doors opens onto a south‑facing terrace that is directly accessible from the dining room, offering an ideal spot for outdoor dining during warm weather.

The kitchen is positioned on the same level and is equipped with a built‑in cooking unit, extraction hood, oven and dishwasher. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room that contains fixed cabinetry and provides access to a separate office space, also fitted with built‑in storage. From a hallway, two additional multifunctional rooms are reachable; these are currently used for storage but could be adapted for workshops, studios or guest accommodations. A second hallway leads to an extra toilet facility. At the front of the building, two former shop units have their own entrance on Oudestraat. These spaces are well suited for hobby activities, a small business, or additional living quarters for family members.

Ascending to the first floor, a landing equipped with a built‑in wardrobe serves as the distribution point for five spacious bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms already include fixed wardrobes, while the remaining rooms offer ample floor space for flexible use. A well appointed bathroom on this level features a double sink, a shower and a wall‑mounted toilet. The floor also includes generous storage cupboards and the possibility to create further rooms if required.

Beyond the residential sections, the property incorporates a substantial workshop complex. On the ground floor of the workshop area, a large open work hall provides room for a wide range of activities. Directly connected is a second work hall that includes a storage area, an office, a toilet and a garage space. Both levels of the workshop are equipped with large sliding doors that allow easy access for vehicles and equipment. A loft space on the first floor, reachable via a fixed staircase, offers additional storage capacity.

The heating system consists of two separate gas powered boilers. A modern Remeha high efficiency combi boiler installed in 2024 serves the residential part of the building, while an older boiler from 2008 supplies the commercial spaces. The property holds an energy performance rating of C, reflecting a reasonable level of thermal efficiency. The windows are primarily wooden with double glazing, and the walls have been insulated in part, contributing to the overall energy performance.

Outside, the enclosed garden surrounds the house on three sides and includes a well maintained terrace, flower borders and mature plantings that create a private, sheltered atmosphere. The garden receives ample sunlight from the south, making it a pleasant place for relaxation. Parking is plentiful on the private grounds, with space for multiple cars as well as visitor parking on the street. A detached stone garage provides a dedicated space for one vehicle, while additional parking spots are available in the courtyard.

The location offers the convenience of central village living. Essential services such as shops, schools, public transport connections and sports facilities are within walking distance. The nearby Ter Wheeme park and the historic Huize De Kamp are just a short stroll away, providing recreational options. The larger cities of Enschede and Hengelo can be reached by car in roughly twenty minutes, expanding the range of cultural and employment opportunities.

In summary, the property presents a unique blend of historic residential charm, extensive workshop facilities and a sizable garden, all situated on a central village plot. The combination of multiple addresses, flexible interior spaces and a solid structural condition make it suitable for a variety of uses, ranging from a family home with home‑based business to a mixed residential and commercial venture.
