Characteristic detached home with panoramic meadow views in rural Willeskop

Located in the countryside between the historic towns of Montfoort and Oudewater, this characteristic detached property at Willeskop 51 offers a blend of rural living with convenient access to urban amenities. The residence is positioned along the Willeskop road, which runs parallel to the Hollandse IJssel river, providing residents with expansive views across the surrounding meadows that extend as far as Benschop and Lopik.

The surrounding area features two charming fortress towns, each with well-preserved monumental city centers offering a variety of restaurants, shops, and community facilities. Both Montfoort and Oudewater provide good access to schools, sports facilities, and active community organizations. For commuters, the A12 and A2 motorways are reachable within a ten-minute drive, connecting residents to larger cities including Utrecht, Rotterdam, and The Hague.

The property dates back to approximately 1880 and has a total living area of 149 square meters, set on a generous plot of 1,060 square meters. The building has a volume of 495 cubic meters and features a traditional gabled roof covered with tiles. The current energy rating is G, with double glazing installed throughout the property. Heating and hot water are provided by a gas-fired HR combi boiler from 2016, which is included in the sale.

The ground floor layout begins with a spacious entrance hall that provides access to various areas of the home. Adjacent to the entrance is a modern toilet room, a pantry closet, and connections leading to both the living room and the kitchen areas. The living room, situated at the front of the property, measures 35 square meters and features a beamed ceiling, wooden floorboards, and a fireplace. The front positioning allows for pleasant views over the adjacent meadow landscape.

The closed kitchen and dining area measures 15 square meters and is fitted with an L-shaped kitchen containing built-in appliances. The flooring consists of authentic farm tiles characteristic of this style of property. A side window provides views of the road and surrounding greenery. Behind the kitchen area, accessible via the hallway, is a garden room of 22 square meters. This space was extended at the rear of the property and offers potential for various uses, including the possibility of conversion to an open-plan kitchen and dining area with direct views of the back garden and meadows.

The ground floor bathroom was newly constructed in 2024 and includes a walk-in shower, a vanity unit, a heated towel rail, and closet space designed to accommodate a washing machine and tumble dryer. This modern addition contrasts with the more traditional elements found elsewhere in the home.

The first floor is accessed via a staircase from the ground floor hallway. The landing area provides access to three bedrooms, with additional storage space available in the sloped roof sections. Two of the bedrooms are positioned at the front of the property, each featuring a skylight adjacent to the front-facing window. The master bedroom is located at the rear of the property and includes a built-in wardrobe wall, again benefiting from the open views across the meadowland. The CV combi boiler is also located on this floor.

The exterior spaces surrounding the property are a notable feature. The garden wraps around the residence and includes various planted borders. A driveway leads to the detached stone garage, which has space for one vehicle and includes electrical connections. Behind the garage, an attached storage building of 16 square meters provides space for garden equipment and tools. The driveway area offers parking space for multiple vehicles.

The back garden measures approximately 500 square meters, with dimensions of 30 meters in depth and 16.65 meters in width. The garden faces southeast and is accessible via a rear path as well as through double gates. The outdoor space includes a large sun terrace adjacent to the property, an expansive lawn area, and a second terrace positioned behind the garage and storage building. The size and orientation of the garden ensure that both sunny and shaded spots are available at different times of day.

The property is offered at a price of 775,000 euros, with buyer costs applicable. The listed price per square meter of living space is approximately 5,201 euros. The property is classified as furnished and is described as being accessible for elderly residents and those with mobility limitations, though the presence of a staircase to the first floor should be noted in this context.

Additional features of the property include mechanical ventilation, a chimney flue, and TV cable connections. The listing notes that the property may be suitable for those seeking space for a home-based business or hobby that requires additional room.

The transfer date is to be agreed upon with the seller. The property is currently listed as available on the housing market.

It should be noted that the listing contains some inconsistencies in the published specifications. The construction year is listed as 1880 in the property description but as 1800 in the features section. Additionally, the summary indicates one bedroom, while the detailed description clearly describes three bedrooms on the first floor. The features section also lists one living floor, despite the clear presence of an upper level. These discrepancies appear to be administrative errors in the listing rather than reflecting the actual condition of the property.
