On a very historic place where in the "Golden Age" several beautiful country houses have stood, stands this coach house of Valkenburg next to the famous country estate called: "Cromwijck". The relatively "young" buitenplaats Valkenburg was designed by architect R.G. Bosch (known from the castle / buitenplaats: Drakensteyn) and built by a renowned contractor who built it for his own occupation. The whole consists of a main house with outbuildings (completely separated and owned by the neighbors) and the coach house which we may offer. The ownership of the two separate plots is thus separated, both in distance from each other and economically and legally. The only thing that shows the joint character of buitenplaats Valkenburg is the stately, joint entrance via a bridge with beautiful wrought iron fencing which forms the entrance to both plots and the houses via the Zandpad.
Through this entrance you come to this very attractive coach house which is situated on a beautiful plot of 1,017 m2 land. A piece of vechtoever with jetty including mooring posts is present so you can moor your vessel (or future!). The house is accessible from the Zandpad through the driveway and features a stylishly landscaped front yard where ample parking for cars on site. A large lawn directly in front of the house and beautiful old tree / trees (plane tree and several weeping willows) give the extra allure and authenticity of its "old" location to the relatively new coach house.
First floor and basement: Entrance (front door is an antique door of the guest house from Utrecht), spacious and bright central hall where the staircase to the second floor is located. Also in the hall are the checkroom and a spacious and modern toilet with hand basin. Through the central hall you reach the spacious and bright living room which is characterized by the many windows around. The living room has a beautiful oak parquet floor and a large fireplace with gas fire (Italian marble). On the left side of the house next to the hall is the very attractive and luxurious living-dining kitchen which has a large island (sink area) and a very spacious back wall with appliances, cabinets and cooking area. This truly beautiful living kitchen is a pleasure to be in because of the beautiful view of the front garden and the river Vecht. The luxury kitchen is of course equipped with the necessary appliances: an induction cooking zone, dishwasher, oven, plate warmer, extremely large refrigerator with Fresh cooling zone and a Quooker. The whole is complemented by a very nice tile floor with underfloor heating, the custom cabinets and even a very cozy gas fireplace. This lovely kitchen also has views of the backyard and terrace through two windows and through two French doors in the central hall. At the rear there is access to the backyard.
Through the kitchen there is access to the basement. This has ample headroom and is located under the entire house. When you enter the basement you will be amazed by the space. Here is a second kitchen with two wine cabinets and many custom cabinets for extra storage, also here are the washing machines and dryers built. A wonderful space to give a (children's) party for example or as a separate (aupair) room. In the basement is also a large closet built which can serve as a wine cellar or is good for lots of extra storage. On the right side is a large (working) bedroom with daylight through a cuckoo and lots of closet space. A separate bathroom which is equipped with a shower, washbasin and a separate toilet may of course not be missing here. The basement is equipped with underfloor heating.
Floor: From hallway you can reach the upper floor via a beautiful wooden staircase, here you will find a landing with dormer window and on the right side two bedrooms. The bedroom at the front is a guest room and has beautiful views over the river "de Vecht". The bedroom at the rear now serves as an extra dressing room/wardrobe room and has a view over the backyard and the backyard Valkenburg.
In the middle at the front of the carriage house is the beautiful bathroom. This bathroom has large skylights for lots of light v.v. blinds and window coverings, a beautiful walk-in shower, a bathtub, double washbasins on a custom handcrafted base cabinet and a toilet. The bathroom has modern tiling v.v floor heating. On the left side of the house is the "master bedroom", a very spacious bedroom which has several dormers with beautiful views on three sides.
The attic can be reached via a trapdoor on the landing.
Garden:The English-style garden has several seats and terraces, a lovely terrace at the rear gives you plenty of privacy. Through the backyard is also the storage / shed to reach. This wooden shed gives you access to plenty of storage space for eg: the garden tools / utensils and space for bicycles. This wooden shed is also a roof for a nice seat.
The front garden with its large lawn and beautiful borders with perennial and colorful flowering plants make this garden a wonderful environment to relax and enjoy everything the vechtstreek and the river "the Vecht" has to offer. At the front of the plot is enough space for parking several cars on the property. As also mentioned earlier, there is an owned strip of the Vecht bank where you can moor your boat at your own jetty. Thus, the Loosdrecht lakes, a trip on the river Vecht and even the cities of Utrecht and Amsterdam are also accessible by boat.
