Are you looking for a new home to enjoy the rural life in the countryside?
Welcome to this characteristic, former farmhouse with stables and large plot.
This house is located on a quiet street, with behind the house hidden an oasis of greenery and tranquility in the village of Schimmert.
With no fewer than 17 rooms, this green gem is a rarity on the housing market.
The house offers you a cozy and comfortable homely atmosphere, a good dose of natural light and good garden contact.
In addition, there is a separate guest accommodation located on the courtyard, tastefully finished with natural materials. The old timber-framed barn will certainly be worth restoring. This is a house with many possibilities and an enormous amount of space.
Location & Environment
The location of this house is ideal for those seeking peace and serenity. It is situated at the edge of Schimmert in the neighborhood of Klein Haasdal, offering an unobstructed view over the beautiful garden and located right in the middle of the hills of South Limburg.
It is a rural setting, allowing you to fully enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside. On the other hand, you are within a few minutes of the motorway that easily connects to Maastricht (15 min), Liège or Heerlen (15 min) and Aachen.
General characteristics of the property
This former free-standing farmstead has a classic stone façade with an attractive traditional farmhouse gate. The entrance hall dates from 1926, while the oldest traces of habitation in timber framing go back to 1744. In various phases, the house has been extended and renovated, turning stables into living space. The authentic character is evident in many elements. During major renovations in the 1980s and around the turn of the century, a lot of living space has been added to the property.
With a total of 17 rooms, including 8 bedrooms, you will find enough space here for a large family in combination with a home office, B&B or for professions that require being at home.
The house is located on a spacious plot of no less than 2660 m². In addition to the beautiful ornamental garden with rose beds, part of the garden is used as a vegetable garden, while in the house meadow there are still large characteristic trees present.
During the renovations, attention was paid to sustainability and insulation. The house has energy class D, which means that the house is relatively energy efficient. Most of the glazing has been carried out in energy-efficient double glazing, partly plastic and partly characteristic wooden frames.
