Country seat for sale near Castle Groeneveld, Baarn, The Netherlands

Utrecht, Baarn (e.o)

€1,595,000 ID: 176706

Uniquely located, directly adjoining the vast forests surrounding Groeneveld Castle, this stylish thatched villa stands on a plot of 2,387 m². It is one of those very rare locations where excellent accessibility to the amenities of Baarn, major roads and the railway station is perfectly combined with the privacy, peace and space of living in nature.
The total living area of 234 m² is divided between the villa (175 m²) and the detached outbuilding (59 m²).

Living in the forest or living on an estate?
This exceptional location truly offers both. The special atmosphere is not only defined by the surrounding forests, but also by the proximity to Groeneveld Castle, with its beloved gardens, water features and small-scale hospitality venues. Within walking distance you will also find organic farm Ravenstein, where cows still graze outdoors and the farm shop sells 100% organic beef and vegetables. 

The atmosphere inside the house is striking: as if time has stood still, yet at the same time contemporary, understated and tasteful. The thatched roof was renewed in 2015, and the roof tiles of the outbuilding were also replaced that year. The kitchen dates from 2023, with built-in appliances from 2023 and 2025.

The heated outbuilding (built in 2015) is fully laid out and equipped for (possibly independent) residential use and can serve as additional living space or as a workspace / practice area. We would be happy to inform you about the various possibilities. The outbuilding is insulated behind the timber cladding and features underfloor heating.
