Key Features
Description
The property at Uddelerveen 98 in Uddel presents a distinctive opportunity for those seeking rural living combined with exceptional equestrian facilities. Situated on the edge of extensive forests, positioned between the villages of Garderen and Ermelo, this characterful freestanding farmhouse occupies a substantial plot of approximately 14,370 square meters, equivalent to roughly 1.5 hectares. The location offers a remarkable sense of privacy and freedom while maintaining convenient access to daily amenities and major roadways.
The farmhouse itself dates back to 1921 and was constructed using traditional building methods with a tile-covered roof. Over the years, the property has been thoughtfully updated with modern insulation including floor insulation, roof insulation, partial cavity wall insulation, and partial triple glazing. The residence achieves an energy label C rating, supplemented by 19 solar panels installed in 2023 and a new Remeha central heating boiler installed in 2025.
The ground floor is accessed via the traditional farm passage known as the deel. The entrance hall serves as a central reception point, providing access to the bathroom, a separate toilet, and the staircase to the upper floor. The bathroom is fully equipped with a bathtub, washbasin, and a separate shower, while the toilet features a wall-hung closet. From the hallway, one proceeds to the living kitchen, which functions as the heart of the home. This spacious and atmospheric room features various built-in appliances including a dishwasher, four-burner induction cooktop, refrigerator, and combination microwave, along with ample cabinet space.
To the right of the kitchen lies the living room, a comfortable and light-filled space with a cozy stove as its focal point. To the left of the kitchen, an adjacent living area benefits from an attractive skylight and two sliding patio doors that flood the space with natural light. This area provides access to a terrace at the front and a charming veranda at the rear, where one can enjoy outdoor dining and extend summer and winter evenings by the veranda stove.
Adjoining the kitchen, the former bakery building now serves as an office space. This practical room features an insulated roof and connections for a washing machine and dryer, making it suitable for working from home, as an additional bedroom, or as a versatile multifunctional space.
The first floor is reached via the staircase from the hall. The landing provides access to two bedrooms at the front of the property, both equipped with tilt windows. These rooms offer pleasant spaces with sufficient sleeping accommodation. At the rear, a particularly spacious master bedroom features two Velux roof windows. An infrared sauna is installed in this room and is available for transfer to the new owner.
The traditional deel section of the farmhouse has been converted to accommodate four horse boxes complete with drinking water facilities and a saddle cabinet. Access is available to a large walkable attic with an insulated roof, currently utilized as a fitness room but offering possibilities for various alternative uses.
The equestrian facilities on the property are comprehensive and professionally arranged. A multifunctional outbuilding includes a wagon shed constructed in 1996, built with a steel frame structure, brick base, and corrugated profile sheet cladding. This shed is divided into two sections, approximately two-thirds and one-third, with the smaller section featuring an electric access door. The wagon shed is equipped with heavy power connections and water supply, and partially includes a spacious attic.
Behind the wagon shed, a large loafing barn has been constructed specifically for horses, featuring lighting and an adjacent saddle room. The outdoor facilities include a generous riding arena measuring approximately 40 by 70 meters, complete with a light mast for evening training sessions. A separate lunge ring with a diameter of approximately 15 meters provides additional training options. The entire property is enclosed with quality wooden fencing from the Schuurman brand.
The garden and grounds have been carefully designed and maintained over the years. The garden surrounds the farmhouse and transitions harmoniously into the equestrian facilities. From the residence, one enjoys an unobstructed view over the front meadow where horses can graze peacefully. The surrounding yard is fully paved and characterized by a practical, well-considered layout, enclosed by a wooden fence that contributes to the well-maintained appearance and sense of privacy and security.
Approximately 8,000 square meters of grassland provide ample space for pasture turnout. A groundwater pump is present, with connections available for irrigating the paddock and sections of the meadows. The property also includes a freestanding wooden garage with capacity for three vehicles.
The surrounding area represents some of the finest landscapes the Veluwe region has to offer. With nature reserves and hamlets such as Leuvenum, Staverden, and Speuld in the immediate vicinity, along with countless equestrian routes through forests and heathlands, this location is particularly suited for those who enjoy trail riding. The proximity to the National Equestrian Center underscores the prime location for horse keeping. Simultaneously, the towns of Ermelo and Apeldoorn are reachable within approximately fifteen minutes by car, while the Randstad region lies about fifty minutes away.
Local dining options include Restaurant Boshuis Drie, which can be reached on horseback from the property and offers the possibility to stable horses, making it an ideal base for a scenic trail ride with lunch. The town of Harderwijk is located fifteen minutes away with various restaurant options.
The cadastral registration consists of two parcels under the Apeldoorn section: parcel A 6379 measuring 2,220 square meters and parcel A 6380 measuring 12,150 square meters, both in full ownership. The property is offered with acceptance terms to be negotiated.
