Dortherdijk 16

An offer like this can safely be called unique. Those looking for a professionally equipped and meticulously maintained horse farm will be at their beck and call with this beautiful complex.

When it was constructed more than eight years ago, however, it was not only horses that were considered; humans also got plenty of attention. The current owners saw their dream of a professional horse business come true at this beautiful and very free location in the outskirts of Eefde, near Gorssel. At the time there was only a sturdy, thatched farmhouse from 1931, which had recently been completely restored. The imposing farmhouse, built in a U-shape around a courtyard, was thereby thoroughly addressed and equipped with modern comforts.

All necessary facilities for the exercise of a horse husbandry cum boarding stable are in the period of 2012 and 2013 under the direction of the current owner newly realized. No expense was spared and that can be seen in everything. The complex and the facilities have been thought through in detail to create optimal conditions for animals and people. In that order. A stone outbuilding houses 44 horse stalls of 3.5 x 3.5 meters with wide corridors, a riding track of 20 x 40 meters with an ebb and flow floor and plenty of light, a washing area with solarium for several horses, beautiful saddle room, a blanket room and separate storage room. Upstairs is a cozy canteen overlooking the riding arena. There is also a comfortable studio apartment with its own entrance for a groom or trainee. The grounds immediately surrounding the hall are paved and stylishly landscaped. A lawn with picnic tables among the trees overlooks the illuminated 20 x 60 meter outdoor arena, also with an ebb and flow bottom. Next to it are the six-horse horse walker and a 15-meter lunging circle with ebb and flow bottom. Behind the hall is the manure yard and a large barn for hay, straw and equipment. The pastures, totaling about 4.5 acres, are divided into smaller plots - fully fenced with wooden fencing and equipped with electric fence.

Behind the farmhouse a solid, oak roofed barn with room for several cars, a garden room and storage shed arose. The rugged outdoors here goes hand in hand with all the pleasures of comfortable and cozy living. The floor area of the farmhouse covers no less than 365 m², spread over two floors. The spacious kitchen cum dining room is the heart of the house and equipped with all modern conveniences. Where the barn used to be is now the living room and the old stable doors have been replaced by a glass front, offering a wide view of the horse facilities and the beautiful surroundings. The large fireplace, authentic oak trusses and natural stone floor create a cozy, country atmosphere. Accessible from the kitchen is the laundry and ironing kitchen. In the front house there are two large bedrooms and a luxurious bathroom. Upstairs you will find five spacious bedrooms, a bathroom and a nursery. A separate wing, accessible both from the dining room and outside, houses six more solid horse stalls. In the beautiful garden around the farm, with many fruit and some nut trees, are several terraces.

In addition to horseback riding, you can fully enjoy the tranquility of the outdoors in this picturesque rural setting. Stores, schools, sports facilities, restaurants and culture are abundant in the vicinity. The Hanseatic cities of Deventer and Zutphen are nearby, as well as the A1 and A50 towards Arnhem.
