Description
Nestled in the picturesque German border region, hidden among stately trees and expansive fields, this beautifully modernized country house (originally built in 1910 and extensively renovated in 2018) awaits its new owner. Set on a generous plot of 15,048 m², this property offers a rare combination of historical charm and contemporary comfort, making it a true hidden gem for those seeking tranquility, privacy, and a connection to nature.
The property is surrounded by a stunning landscape, rich in natural features and biodiversity, providing the ultimate sense of freedom and seclusion. Despite its serene setting, amenities are never far away. Located in the triangle between Wilsum, Itterbeck, and Wielen, and close to the Dutch border near the city of Hardenberg, this home offers a perfect balance between peaceful rural living and convenient access to daily necessities.
Upon entering, you are immediately struck by the open and inviting atmosphere. The exposed wooden beams contrast beautifully with the light ceilings and sleek walls, creating a warm and characterful ambiance. The ground floor is spacious and thoughtfully laid out, featuring two large bedrooms, a modern bathroom, and a generous living and dining area. The first floor offers an additional workspace, connected to the living room below via a mezzanine, making it ideal for a home office, hobby room, or play area.
The entrance hall is welcoming and practical, with a cloakroom niche and access to a modern toilet and a utility room equipped with an extra kitchenette and connections for a washing machine and dryer. On the other side of the hall, you'll find the technical room and the first bedroom, which has direct access to the bathroom. This bathroom is fully equipped with a wall-mounted toilet, washbasin, and a comfortable walk-in shower. The second bedroom is accessible through the bathroom, providing a unique and cozy connection between the sleeping quarters.
The heart of the home is the impressive, light-filled living and dining room. The spacious kitchen island is the focal point, equipped with high-quality appliances including an induction hob, oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, double sink, and a luxury wine climate cabinet. The living area offers ample space for a large seating area by the atmospheric wood stove and a generous dining area for family gatherings. From the living room, you can access the mezzanine, which leads to the additional room on the first floor.
Adjacent to the living room is a party room, divided into two sections. From here, or directly from the living room, you step onto the covered terrace, where you can relax by the outdoor fireplace or cook in the outdoor kitchen. This seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces enhances the sense of luxury, comfort, and conviviality, making it an ideal place for entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
The extensive grounds also feature a large stone barn (approximately 70 m²), currently used as a pottery studio. This versatile space, complete with a wood stove, can be adapted for a variety of uses, such as an atelier, hobby room, home office, or guest accommodation. The property is connected to the water and sewage networks, has no gas connection, and is equipped with fiber optic internet.
Sustainability is a key feature of this home. Thanks to a modern heat pump (installed in 2018), excellent insulation, triple-glazed windows, and 20 leased solar panels, the property boasts an A+ energy label and an impressively low energy demand of just 19 kWh/(m².a). This ensures optimal living comfort with minimal energy costs, making the home future-proof.
The garden surrounds the house, offering various spots to enjoy the sun or shade throughout the day. The location at the edge of the forest, outside the built-up area, provides open views and a strong connection to the surrounding countryside. The property also offers ample private parking on its own grounds.
Wilsum itself is a charming, peaceful village in Lower Saxony, part of the municipality of Uelsen in the county of Bentheim. The area is beloved by walkers and cyclists for its well-maintained routes through nature reserves and past historic farms. Nearby, you'll find cultural attractions and medieval churches, and the region is known for its Dutch-German character, reflected in the language, culture, and hospitality of its residents.
This is a unique opportunity to own a piece of history in a location where freedom and tranquility take center stage. Whether you dream of living, working, or simply enjoying the outdoors, this property offers endless possibilities. The combination of historical elements, modern amenities, and sustainable features makes this home truly special.
