A work of art can take on many forms. Some see ultimate beauty in a timeless painting, others in the pen strokes that turn a sports car into a classic or in the perfect composition of grapes that produce a wine of exceptional quality. That a work of art can also come in the form of a home is proven in this unique detached villa. It is with pride that we present this ultimate detached villa to you. Unique in terms of location thanks to its own water and no less than two private islands in the “Stille Plas”, with an unparalleled living area, finishes and amenities including an indoor and outdoor pool, this detached villa embodies the perfect living experience in the Loosdrecht lake district. Discreetly hidden behind mature vegetation and understated entrance gates is your own private paradise. The driveway leads you, via the beautifully landscaped garden and past the tennis court, to the impressive porched entrance. The double front door open to the welcoming, organically designed reception hall. As soon as you walk into this home, it's crystal clear, living here is golden. Follow the beautiful sight line to the fireplace and beyond where the dining room is situated and imagine the memorable evenings you will have here with family and friends: seated at a beautifully set table against the backdrop of the terrace, the garden, the jetty and Loosdrecht lakes beyond. The living kitchen checks every box. Even the most discerning chef will feel right at home here. The heart of the kitchen is formed by the impressive island with a marble worktop with pit cookers and teppanyaki plate. All built-in appliances are by Miele. The other wing of the house accommodates the spacious living room. The living room offers beautiful views of the gardens at the front, side and back of the villa. The organic shape of the living room makes it feel spacious and simultaneously intimate. A wonderful place to sit by the fireplace in the evening. A natural stone staircase leads from the reception hall to the first floor. Double French doors on the landing open to the primary bedroom. Although the term bedroom doesn't do the space justice - this room is a genuine dream, not in the least due to the stunning vistas of the “Stille Plas” nature reserve, a view that you will wake up to every day. The adjoining bathroom is designed for ultimate relaxation. A true calm space in a busy life. Its generous dimensions and high-end materials make this a bathroom fit for the best hotels in the world. And, of course, once again a beautiful view - both from the windows and of the impressive fresco painting. A unique detail that is another reflection of the abundant attention and love that went in to designing this villa. Also on the first floor: not one but two spacious dressing rooms with custom built-ins. One of the dressing rooms has a private bathroom. Haute couture you can live in. The first floor also features one of the villa's two laundry rooms. The first floor is currently laid out in such a way as to create a generous private floor for the owners.

The spa also features a pantry with a refrigerator and Quooker. The spa offers views of and direct access to the truly beautifully designed outdoor infinity pool with unique glass front. Because the outdoor pool is lower relative to the garden, the outdoor pool offers optimum privacy. The spa with the indoor pool accesses a large separate storage room on the second basement floor. Furthermore, the first basement floor features a massage room and a dressing/shower room, toilets and a state-of-the-art fitness room with a direct view of the spa area and swimming pools. The first basement floor also offers direct access to the more than spacious indoor garage. Here, even the most enthusiastic car connoisseur can see his wildest dreams come true. The garage offers room for several cars and has a separate toilet, a dog shower and a car elevator that leads to the second basement floor. Speaking of the second basement floor, this floor is all about balancing work and pleasure. From the hall you can access a beautiful, secured, wine cellar, separate toilet, pantry/laundry room, storage room with archive safe, the technical rooms and a "cave". This area currently has a beautiful bar with a seating area, an office with room for a large conference table and stage for your favorite car, accessible by aforementioned car elevator. The major surprise on this floor is the full cinema which is hidden behind an automatic sliding door. Watching your favorite series or movie is a unique experience every time. The villa is of course equipped with a state-of-the-art security system, hi-fi systems, air treatment system, air conditioning and only the best in lighting. Everything can be controlled via the home automation system. Back on the ground floor, you have access from all sides of the villa to the commanding garden, which is completely oriented to the south.

Then you can begin your day in the front yard on the fully illuminated tennis court. Drinks can be enjoyed on the stunning terrace overlooking the outdoor pool or right by the water on the panoramic jetty with a jacuzzi. The villa has a beautiful newly built and completely detached guesthouse with a living room that has sliding doors for a seamless connection with the beautiful garden, a full kitchen, a bedroom with air conditioning and a bathroom with shower, double vanity and toilet. The first floor features a sleeping loft with a beautiful view of the water. A dream spot for summer sleepovers by (grand) children. Also at the front of the villa, directly behind the entrance gate, is also a detached doghouse with a storage room. The fact that every room in the villa and every point in the garden offers an enchantingly beautiful view of the Loosdrechtse Plassen will no longer surprise you. And if you want to get even closer, simply go to your own boathouse and the private jetty with steps that lead into the water of the lake. Stille Plas lake is perfect for sailing, and leads directly to the third lake where you can moor your boat at one of the many waterfront eateries or cafes or set course towards Vecht River. Loosdrecht itself is a highly sought-after residential area thanks to its many water sports facilities, varied range of (specialty) stores and restaurants and cafes. Bustling boutique shopping street Gijsbrecht van Amstel in Hilversum is only a few minutes' drive away. The highway can be accessed via nearby Breukelen, with quick connections to Utrecht, Amsterdam and Schiphol international airport.

A hidden gem on the Vecht. This description certainly applies to this beautiful country house called Zonneweelde with a breathtaking ornamental garden located directly on the river "de Vecht". This characteristic, detached villa does not have a imposing appearance from the front but exudes peace, charm and modesty. Characteristic of the popular architectural style of the early twentieth century. The country house was commissioned by the Casant brothers in 1924 as two separate houses, completely symmetrical in style, designed by architect G. De Heus. In 2002-2003 the two houses were merged into 1 spacious and comfortable family home. This was done under architecture by a restoration architect with a great deal of attention to detail and a particularly high level of finishing. You don't expect the many surprises that this unique object has to offer when you drive up the path through the wrought iron gate. The house (399 m2 NEN living space) is located between the popular villages of Breukelen and Maarssen and stands on a great plot of over 3,091 m2 of land with direct access/connection to the river "de Vecht". The garden is certainly one of the many surprises. This jewel has been carefully landscaped over the years by the owners, with the input of a well-known landscape architect, and shaped into a beautiful ornamental garden where you can relax in peace and privacy after leaving the hustle and bustle of the big city. Enjoy a good book, a nice glass and a snack, or relax with family and friends in the sun or natural shade on one of the several intimate terraces/seating areas. In this classic English ornamental garden you will find beautiful borders by colour with flowering plants that follow each other in bloom at different times of the year. Spring starts with Stinzen plants and a multitude of bulbs. The landscaping is well thought out with perennials, shrubs and monumental trees, truly a green and colorful oasis in the middle of the Randstad. From the house the discovery of this beautiful garden begins, at the rear with a spacious terrace on the conservatory which runs out to the large lawn, through beautiful paths, drillers, ponds and seating areas you enter various garden rooms, each with its own style and atmosphere. On the spacious plot there is of course ample parking space for several cars and there are two large outbuildings. A separate guesthouse/garage and a spacious barn with attic for all your garden supplies/storage room. We would like to take you along for a textual impression of the whole. Perhaps seeing is better than reading, as such a unique object is difficult to describe with words. Main house: From the Straatweg in this rural area, you can see the main house between the trees. You reach the plot through a private dam with beautiful wrought iron fencing. The front garden is landscaped with bushes and parking space for cars on the right, also on the right rear is the outbuilding, in the style of the main house, which now serves as a guest house. On the left-hand side, drive to the car park. A nice detail is that at the front there is a beautiful unobstructed view over the farmlands, here are cows, horses and sometimes rabbits/hares and meadow birds. The main entrance of the house was moved to the left during the merger of the two houses. A stately and imposing entrance through two wide doors gives you a warm welcome in this villa. A monumental reception hall with loft immediately indicates the atmosphere of this lovely family home. Lots of light, beautiful materials and beautiful views predominate here. The spacious reception hall gives access to the office at the front. The study has built-in bookcases and a gas fireplace and a nice bay window with a beautiful view over the front garden with a view of the opposite farmlands. There is also a spacious toilet room and a beautiful elm staircase to the upper floor. From the hall you can also reach the very spacious living room through two French doors, which is actually centrally located and therefore partly in the middle of the house. A lovely living room with a fireplace, oak floor (wide floorboards) and what immediately stands out: Atmosphere and feeling of space due to the high ceilings, special patio doors, the beautiful authentic details and the beautiful light. Through the hall and the living room you enter the fantastic conservatory. The English conservatory was designed and built by Vale Garden Houses, and is now the beating heart of the house.

Garden and experience: We would like to give the floor to the owner who has lived here for more than 32 years and has made wonderful memories. "The owner" speaks: Living outside, in peace and privacy, but still having the opportunity to walk to the flower market in Utrecht or listen to a concert in the Concertgebouw within 20 minutes! Working abroad was easy with good connections to Schiphol airport. This, in our view, historic, house with the lovely garden has brought us so many beautiful things over the past 32 years. Everything was possible: dinners for 30 people in the beautiful conservatory, barbecues for large groups, house concerts, business events, boat trips on the Vecht. And of course, gardening in peace! We have made wonderful memories here, together with our children, and we hope that the next owners will do the same.
