MONUMENTAL GRANDEUR ON THE LEK
On the edge of the river Lek, overlooking the fairytale floodplains, this monumental gem is once again open to new residents after more than 50 years, whether or not in combination with home office. Because considering the floor area of almost 730 m2, former office spaces and two coach houses, this is also an ideal location for those who want to combine living with a high-quality practice, studio or office environment.

The Lekdijkhuis is an exceptionally unique property: rich in history, grand in appearance and full of future potential. A unique opportunity for those looking for space, character and development opportunities in one of the most beautiful locations in the river landscape, with cities such as Utrecht and Amsterdam within easy reach.

The current owners have lived in the Lekdijkhuis with love and respect for more than half a century. The soul of the house can be felt in every detail: from the imposing façade to the high windows, from the classical symmetry to the authentic elements that have been carefully preserved.

LIVING ON THE RIVER, SurroundED BY NATURE AND RUST
The imposing Lekdijk house is in an exceptional location on the banks of the river Lek. The lush gardens with mature trees, graceful borders, water features and intimate seating areas are an oasis of tranquillity. The surrounding landscape - the river, floodplains and vast meadows - changes with the seasons, offering a panoramic backdrop that constantly changes atmosphere.

The classic architecture, tall windows, robust shutters and refined ornaments give the house an impressive appearance. Inside, the rooms exude warmth and authenticity. The living kitchen with antique tiles, classic fireplace and a characteristic wood-fired cooker is the heart of the house. The living and sitting rooms overlook the greenery and the water. The veranda and terraces invite long evenings in peace and privacy.

SUSTAINABILITY
In recent years, substantial investments have been made in sustainability. For instance, roof and pipes have been insulated, several windows have been fitted with HR glass, a heat pump boiler has been installed and a total of 150 solar panels have been installed. In fact, gas consumption has been reduced to virtually zero in recent years.

Plans have also been developed to split energy and heating per residential unit, enabling full autonomy per unit. Further optimisation - such as battery storage - is among the future options.

A comprehensive energy report is of course available.

Come, take a walk through this stately property.

GROUND FLOOR
Via the gravel path you reach the stately entrance of the national monument.

The reception hall gives access to the spacious kitchen diner, two bedrooms with shared bathroom, an upstairs room, the master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, the lounge and the bright garden room with French doors to the veranda. To the side is a clog shed with access to both private and large parking.

The spacious kitchen diner forms the warm heart of the Lekdijk house. Original details such as antique wall tiles, a historic water pump and a classic fireplace give the room character. The wood-fired multifunctional cooker is both atmospheric and functional: suitable for cooking, baking, keeping warm as well as supporting heating.

The monumental staircase is one of the eye-catchers of the Lekdijkhuis. The gracefully designed wooden staircase with classic details elegantly connects the three residential floors and emphasises the historic character of the property. The generous staircase catches beautiful light through the high windows, giving each floor an inviting and stately entrance. Together with the present lift, this makes the property not only impressive, but also comfortable and accessible.

1st FLOOR
A central corridor connects several rooms, including the former boardroom with balcony and views over the Lek, the secretariat and several generous rooms that previously served as offices. Plans for the realisation of two compact residential units are ready, but have not yet been implemented - room for your own interpretation.

2nd FLOOR
The top floor comprises two independent living units with living and bedroom, kitchenette and bathroom. This floor is also accessible by lift.

THE PLOT
The plot totalling as much as 9,655 m2 features private parking, two carriage houses - one of which is fully self-contained with living room, bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and terrace, and the second can easily be transformed into living space.

The vast yard of the Lekdijk house feels like its own estate; a world unto itself where tranquillity, nature and elegance come together. The fairytale pond, in which the house serenely reflects, is strongly reminiscent of the dreamlike scenes from Claude Monet's paintings. Surrounded by lush vegetation and colourful seasonal plants, this is a place where every moment of the day feels like a painting.

Stroll your private grounds with the allure of country estate, along winding paths through the orchard and vegetable garden, where organic vegetables and herbs can be grown - a rare luxury in a monumental setting. Take a seat on the bench by the pond and silently enjoy the view of your impressive home, rising majestically behind the water.

And when the morning sun falls over the floodplain, you wake up in a setting that feels like a holiday: a cup of coffee in the garden, the gentle rustling of the trees and the light playing on the water. It is the essence of rural living in its most elegant form.

The solar panels in the orchard and on the coach houses collectively generate about 30,000 kWh a year. The garden has been carefully landscaped and forms a harmonious ensemble of lawns, borders, paths and mature trees.

FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES
In addition to its current living and usage possibilities, the Lekdijk house offers exceptional potential for a variety of future-oriented infill.

Thanks to the zoning plan - which allows the realisation of a total of six residential units - a multi-storey residential use is possible. But the opportunities extend further. The monumental appearance, generous layout and unique location make this property suitable for several high-quality concepts, for example:

- Bed & Breakfast - The existing independent living units and the spacious coach house lend themselves perfectly to a luxury, small-scale B&B by the river, where guests can enjoy tranquillity, nature and history.

- Combination of living and working - With several rooms, former office spaces and two coach houses, this is an ideal location for those who want to combine living with a high-quality practice, studio or office environment.

- Boutique hotel - The rich history, stately architecture and idyllic location provide a solid basis for a charming boutique hotel with monumental allure and a distinctive signature.

The scale, ambience and formal possibilities make this property a rare opportunity for a new owner with vision - a place where dreams can become reality.

HISTORY
The Lekdijk house has a rich history. The plot is described as early as 1467. Over the centuries, it was owned by influential families who played an important role in water management and local politics. Later, the famous Amsterdam stage actor Andries Snoek lived here, and for over a century the property served as a meeting place for the Hoogheemraadschap. The Royal Family also paid several visits - including King Willem III, Prince Hendrik and Prince Bernhard.

plot size
The property comprises two cadastral plots, as follows:

Plot number 175: 4,060 m²
