De Hoek 9, Hijken

Outside opportunity!

At the end of the idyllic and cozy little street, tellingly called the Corner, lies a farmhouse with detached barn that has escaped the dance of modern times. With intense pleasure and baking love, the family from father to son has embraced life here for decades. The place is accordingly. Apart from neighbors, whose location does not bother you at all, you are dependent on unspoiled greenery, views and a beautiful garden with just about every kind of fruit and vegetable, which can flourish here successfully.

In the farmhouse, time has stood still. Don't look for modernities like central (floor) heating or kitchens with steam ovens here. All the amenities are, shall we say, characterful, and can function at a primary level for years to come. The shell, on the other hand, is in pristine condition, maintenance done with love and attention over the years.

The place is a dream spot. In addition to agricultural functions, the village of Hijken has over the years acquired the function of a stopping place for characteristic living in lush surroundings. This farmhouse is at the beginning of a transformation to lush living.

The outbuilding has been virtually rebuilt, is structurally sound and offers numerous possibilities.
The house with part is naturally habitable, but can be transformed into a modern living steeple entirely according to your wishes.
For those who love authenticity, can see through functional limitations, have big dreams, seize opportunities when they arise, this is a wonderful offer.
