Drienerveldweg 130

Peace, space and nature - in the outskirts of Twente
In the leafy outskirts of Twente, in the popular hamlet of Driene, lies a rare complete estate. On a plot of over 3 hectares, tranquillity, nature and comfort come together. The location is ideal for families and/or nature lovers. Schools, sports clubs, shops, museums and theatres are nearby in both Enschede and Hengelo. Golf club Driene, one of the oldest golf courses in the Netherlands, is also nearby.

Deer regularly show themselves around sunset. No traffic here, just whistling birds, a winding forest path and the Esbeek River flowing across the estate. This place is in the middle of the characteristic Twente coulisse landscape, where wooded banks, forest edges and rolling meadows alternate as in a natural setting. A landscape that feels like a living painting, where space, shelter and openness are in balance - and where every season shows its own character.

The villa was designed by architect Boy Wendrich, co-founder of the renowned IAA Architects and known for the beautiful villas he designed for Twente entrepreneurs. His signature is recognisable in thoughtful, timeless designs that blend into the landscape. This can also be felt here: large windows, the use of natural materials and sightlines that seamlessly connect inside and outside.

Spacious living, designed for living
The villa offers plenty of living comfort for a family, with five full-size bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generous living kitchen. The living room with fireplace is adjacent to the terrace and offers beautiful views of the garden. The living kitchen is the heart of the house: bright, spacious and fully equipped, with an adjacent utility room. Everything is designed for comfort, convenience and a relaxed way of living.

This villa is additionally ideally suited for a home office or practice. The generous, detached double garage with adjoining workshop is ideal for hobbies, chores or extra storage space. A house with character and potential, with love and contemporary adaptations you can turn this into a dream home, completely in today's style.

Garden and nature
The estate is a true domain. In the middle of nature, at the end of a quiet, dead-end street - a unique place where peace and space come together. A private driveway, woods, meadow, a pond and the Esbeek river make the outdoor life palpable.

The garden is laid out in the English landscape style, with flowing lines, vistas and natural transitions between the various elements. The villa has several terraces, each with its own character and charm. The terrace overlooking the pond invites you to enjoy long evenings by the atmospheric outdoor fireplace.

For families, this is a true outdoor paradise. Children build huts, jump ditches and playfully discover nature. Here they grow up with freedom, adventure and plenty of room to play. For horse lovers, there are lovely riding opportunities on site and in the immediate surroundings.

Possibilities
And for those who dream of creating something new, the zoning plan also offers exceptional opportunities. A country house of no less than 5,000 m³ may be built on this site, with a ridge height of 12 metres. The spacious building plot of approximately 65 x 45 metres offers all the freedom for a modern living concept, where luxury, comfort and nature come together harmoniously.

The current owners have had a design drawn up by EVE Architects. In this plan, the building possibilities based on the current zoning plan have been carefully portrayed. The design offers insight into the potential of the site and the space to realise your residential wishes. The full design can be requested from Thoma & Bennink Landerijenbureau.
