Description

Welcome to the story of a not-so-hidden gem nestled in the heart of Maasmechelen, Belgium—a farmhouse that embodies the harmony of history and modern life. Located at Koning Albertlaan 228, this lovely farmhouse might just be the place you've been dreaming of if you're planning to move to this charming city.

Let's start with where this property sits. Maasmechelen is a serene town characterized by its proximity to some of the most breathtaking natural reserves Belgium has to offer, including the Hoge Kempen National Park. Living here means you are mere steps away from the beauty of Pietersheim Park, a place where you can lose yourself in nature with endless cycling and walking paths. It's not too far from urban life either; Maastricht, a vibrant Dutch city renowned for its cultural and historical richness, is just around 7 km away.

For those wondering what the climate in Maasmechelen is like, expect a comfortable blend of seasons with warm summers and moderately chilly winters—not too extreme, just right for enjoying both indoor coziness and outdoor adventures. As part of the vibrant fabric of European life, Maasmechelen offers a lifestyle that balances outdoor leisure with the thrills of urban experiences. The vicinity of Maastricht makes it convenient for international travelers and offers a touch of Dutch culture just a short drive away.

Now, about the property itself. This farmhouse, while rooted in the rich past of the 19th century, saw a major facelift in 1995 and is still standing proud in good condition. It offers three bedrooms and a single bathroom sprawled across a space of 176 square meters. A perfect fit for those who want to experience the simplicity of farmhouse life without being entirely detached from the comforts of modern amenities.

- 3 Bedrooms
- 1 Bathroom
- 176 m² living space
- Kitchen with modern appliances
- Charming oak flooring
- Spacious garden with privacy
- Large covered terrace connecting with living room
- Study room with bedroom potential
- Ground-floor utility room
- Parking for two cars
- 14 solar panels
- Gas combi boiler for heating
- Large plot of 1063 m²

This is not just a house; it's a story waiting to unfold for its next dwellers. Imagine waking up to the gentle chirping of birds in the garden, a morning coffee on the terrace, and weekend explorations of historic sites like the Castle of Pietersheim. The house itself offers a seamless blend of space and comforts with a newly installed kitchen that would delight any culinary enthusiast.

While some parts hint at their historical origins, the farmhouse gives you ample space to make it your own. Maybe add a touch of color here, an antique piece there, or transform one of the spacious bedrooms into a studio. It's the kind of home that quietly reminds you of the ingenuity of the past while making space for your personal touches.

As a busy real estate agent representing clients globally, I understand the unique needs and requirements of international buyers. This farmhouse's allure is not just in its structure but in the quality of life it promises. Imagine children playing by the castle playground, or weekends of exploration with family at the children's farm. Not forgetting those serene evenings with neighbors who are as much family as friends, swapping stories over a glass of locally brewed beer or wine.

If you're someone who appreciates a blend of tranquility with an occasional escape to bustling city life, Maasmechelen might just be the perfect fit. So whether you desire a peaceful family life, a retreat from the hustle, or an opportunity to remodel a space into your personal sanctuary, this farmhouse offers that canvas.

I'm here to help with any questions or guide you through the process of turning this farmhouse into a home. Let’s talk possibilities and discover what life in Maasmechelen can offer you.
