Straatweg, 42, BREUKELEN, Utrecht 3621 BP

In a wonderful location right on the river De Vecht, amidst the Vecht villages of Breukelen and Maarssen, stands this special, detached house (built in 1980, energy label A) with outbuildings on a more than generous plot of no less than 4, 665 m of land.Rarely do these hidden pearls become available on the open market. Along the winding banks of the famous and beloved river, the most breathtaking and beautiful estates, castles and pleasure gardens have been here since the early Middle Ages. Our ancestors were no fools and chose these beautiful places to build their residences and country houses. This place can also be called unique; peace, space, privacy, inspiration and especially nature prevail here. The location of this delightful detached house diagonally opposite the castle, Ridderhofstad Oudaen, with its spacious garden right on the river Vecht, is unbeatable. This is where you come to relax, where you want to live, let your children play in the large garden, enjoy swimming, supping and sailing in the Vecht, with a boat in front of the door and your fleet of cars on your own property. All this just below the hustle and bustle of the cities of Utrecht and Amsterdam at a 25 min distance, the villages of Breukelen and Maarssen are within cycling distance...it doesn't get any better.The house was designed and built in 1980 in a very progressive way, back then nobody thought about energy efficiency. The owners had a Danish builder come over to realise a house according to Scandinavian standards, so super insulated with a high level of comfort and completely as we now say sustainably built.On the beautiful grounds, there are several other buildings that now serve as a barn/storage room and office/atelier.
