Ommen - Beerzerveld, Stenendijk 8

Hidden gem in the Overijssel countryside

At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, surrounded by meadows and majestic trees, lies the stylish country house Old Ambt. The driveway takes you over a private bridge and along a moat to the entrance, where two classic cypress trees welcome you.

Generous and peaceful
This 1947 municipal monument was built in English country house style and designed by architect Jan Rebel. The characteristic half-timbered gables and slate roof give the original country house of the former gentleman farmer its special appearance. According to tradition, the gable signs protect the residents from outside mischief. The authentic details, such as the 17th-century panelling, the high decorated ceilings and beautiful windows, breathe the atmosphere of days gone by.
With no less than 565 m² of living space, there is plenty of room to live, work and relax.

Allure of yesteryear
At Old Ambt, grandeur and history go hand in hand. The stately rooms each tell their own story. The Men's Library, for example, has beautiful linen-spun wallpaper and an imposing fireplace. The majestic windows offer views of the canal and the teahouse. The stylish dining room with French doors to the veranda invites long dinners. The sunny White Room offers views of the lush garden through large stained-glass windows. The former servants' room recalls days gone by. The bedroom with ensuite bathroom on the ground floor has French doors to the garden.

Luxurious outdoor living
Birds sing their highest song here, and every year the faithful stork pair returns to breed. Around the house are both sunny and shady terraces, intimate seating areas and leafy alcoves with beautiful sightlines. From the veranda, you look over a romantic rose garden. The outbuildings offer plenty of possibilities: a spacious glass greenhouse for flowers, vegetables or fruit, a spacious summerhouse with loft, a double indoor garage (also with loft), a teahouse, as well as a stable and two small meadows, ideal for keeping hobby animals such as a pony, goats or chickens.
Privacy guaranteed
The evenings here are still really dark and quiet. That tranquillity, combined with space, privacy and natural beauty, makes for an exceptional living experience. Would you like to keep horses? That is possible thanks to the adjacent extra plot that is offered along.
The house is very suitable for a large family, a home office or practice, live-in parents or a Bed & Breakfast.
