Description

Welcome to this irresistible slice of history located just on the outskirts of Best, a charming area near Eindhoven in North Brabant, Netherlands. As a bussy real estate agent, I'm always on my toes with the interest this unique gem generates, and for good reason. It is not every day you get the chance to become the steward of a rare historical estate like De Burghoef. This property intertwines modern living with rustic tales from nearly four centuries ago, all nestled within the picturesque Dutch countryside.

Situated at Hoefweg 4, Best, this country home captivates immediately as you meander down the storied driveway, surrounded by lush meadows and inviting forest land. Encompassing over two and a half hectares, it's a world teeming with life—from curious squirrels to majestic owls and elusive foxes, the choir of nature never has downtime here. New residents will be continually astonished by the vibrant ecosystem that enriches daily life.

As a historical enclave, much curiosity surrounds the former functions of this farm. The current owner invested time and effort delving into the past of North Brabant, piecing together the history of the farm and the area. What stands today is a restored national monument—a conventional farm with an authentic transverse barn, a secondary barn, and a dedicated bakehouse, all lovingly rejuvenated while maintaining the original charm.

While the property shines with a preservation of authenticity, it opens endless possibilities for personalization and imprinting your own story. Despite its roots from centuries ago, modern updates provide comfort without compromising the core essence. Features like the renewed thatched roof and underfloor heating harmoniously blend history with modernity, revealing 'hidden treasures' at every corner!

Upon exploring De Burghoef, autumn truly becomes a season of shimmering colors, with nature painting the landscape with strokes of golden yellow and deep red. This aesthetic makes the property's private location even more mesmerizing, especially given the abundant privacy provided by trees and nature's bounty. Even on a stroll amongst the evergreen beech avenues, the comfort and allure of the surroundings offer an indescribable joy.

Stepping inside, the old rustic feel stretches into reality with a modern custom-made kitchen and dining quarters revealing a part of history—the pot stable of yesteryears. Yet, a marvel of this home lies in the converted hay barn—now a spacious living area enriched with an oak floor, underfloor heating, and a cozy wood stove for extra ambiance. Large windows invite light and offer views connecting indoors and outdoors effortlessly.

A rooftop loft converts what was once a hayloft into a luxurious bedroom, complete with a bathroom and dressing room. It's airy and full of character, like stepping into a loft suite with all its sophisticated and laid-back charm. At the heart of it, a gas fireplace welcomes you as warmly as an Italian estate hotel would.

The original 'good room' on the right of the hall stands testament to the heritage of the home with an authentic fireplace and carefully restored woodwork. It's a place preserved through time where nostalgia fills the air, alongside the subtle essences of a burning fireplace.

Step outside, and you'll find a harmonious ensemble of buildings—each with its story. The largest barn, a historical transverse, offers enormous potential—whether it's housing vehicles or livestock. The bakehouse and smaller charming barns continue the tale of yesteryears, remaining functional and essential components of country life.

With its idyllic setting, De Burghoef presents itself with ease to major highways like A2, A58, and A50, making travel simple and convenient for a countryside home. The Eindhoven Airport ensures international transit is within reach, and local shops and schools lie within walking distance of the estate. For anyone considering embracing Dutch country life, this is a perfection blend of tranquility and accessibility.
