In the leafy and highly sought-after residential area of Hofland-Noord, you’ll find this unique detached villa set on a generous 961 m² plot — a property you don’t come across every day. A fantastic green location offering space and tranquility. The villa was architect-designed and built for the family, and since the handover it has been a wonderful place to grow and live. Will you carry on that feeling and give this beautiful home a new future?
The enjoyment begins the moment you drive onto the private driveway: parking on your own grounds for two cars, a spacious garage, and a home that immediately gives a sense of freedom. But the real wow factor? That truly awaits at the rear. The backyard borders wide ornamental water and offers open views of the dike beyond. The garden has a calming atmosphere that takes your breath away day after day. This is one of those places where time seems to slow down. A true paradise, complete with a vegetable garden and greenhouse — perfect for anyone dreaming of fresh produce from their own garden and long summer days outdoors. A wonderful space where children can run, play football, and explore, while still offering plenty of room for a sunny or shaded terrace. It’s all possible here.
Inside, the home is just as appealing. The ground floor offers everything you need for comfortable and versatile living: a pleasant home office, a cozy breakfast area where the day begins peacefully, a practical utility room, and direct access to both the garage and the garden. On the first floor, you’ll find no fewer than four bedrooms and two bathrooms — perfect for families or guests. And as if that weren’t enough, there is an additional bedroom above the garage. Ideal as a teenager’s room, guest room, or hobby space. Sustainability has also been considered: with 18 solar panels (12 at the rear and 6 at the front), the home is well prepared for the future.
The location completes the picture. In the immediate vicinity, you’ll find everything for daily convenience: primary schools, the VeenLanden College (secondary education), supermarkets, and public transport are all within walking distance. The charming center of Mijdrecht, with a wide range of shops and restaurants, is also easily reached on foot. And with cities such as Amsterdam, Utrecht, Woerden, Hilversum, and Schiphol just a 20-minute drive away, you can enjoy peaceful living without compromising accessibility.
In short: a place where indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly — and where every day feels just a little like being on holiday.
Layout of the villa:
GROUND FLOOR
The first impression is immediately inviting. Via the spacious driveway, where you can easily park multiple cars, you reach the entrance. Inside, you step into a generous hallway with a void, allowing natural light to flood in and creating a strong sense of space. Here you’ll find the toilet with washbasin, the staircase, and access to the various living areas.
The office on the ground floor is a quiet and comfortable space — ideal for working from home, studying, or hobbies. At the front, the square-shaped living room offers a cozy atmosphere with a wood-burning stove. A recessed nook adds a playful element and is perfect as a reading corner, workspace, or children’s play area. At the rear, a door leads to the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living on sunny days.
The open kitchen is practically laid out in an L-shape and equipped with various built-in appliances, including a refrigerator, freezer, induction hob, extractor hood, corner pan cupboard, dishwasher, and oven. A pleasant place to cook while staying connected to the living space.
Adjacent is an additional room currently used as a breakfast area — a bright spot to start the day, but also suitable as a workspace or playroom. From here, you continue into the practical utility room, which includes connections for a washing machine, an electric boiler for the kitchen, and a utility sink — ideal for everyday use.
The garage is accessible from both inside and outside and features an electric roller door, a pedestrian door to the garden, and side windows for extra daylight. From the utility room, a staircase leads to the space above the garage. Here you’ll find a landing and an additional bedroom with both a large side window and a skylight — a bright and versatile room with multiple uses.
FIRST FLOOR
On the first floor, the central landing provides access to four bedrooms and the main bathroom. The bathroom is equipped with a bathtub (with shower option), a vanity unit, and a towel radiator. The toilet is separate, adding extra convenience.
All four bedrooms are well-sized and offer plenty of space for a family, guests, or an additional office or hobby room. The largest bedroom is located at the rear and features a spacious walk-in wardrobe and access to a covered balcony. It also benefits from an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower and vanity unit.
A loft ladder on the landing leads to the attic storage space, which extends across the entire floor — ideal for storing belongings. Here you’ll also find the central heating boiler and an additional electric boiler for hot water, supported by the solar panels. An added advantage is the possibility to connect the bedroom above the garage directly to this floor, making the layout even more practical.
GARDEN
The garden of this home is a wonderful outdoor retreat where you can fully unwind. Behind the house, a spacious terrace stretches out — the perfect place for a morning coffee in the sun or a relaxing evening with friends and family. The lawn offers plenty of space for playing, relaxing, or simply enjoying the outdoors.
What truly makes this garden special is the combination of ornamental water, a vegetable garden, and a greenhouse. While the water gently flows and creates a sense of calm and openness, you can grow your own vegetables, herbs, and flowers — literally harvesting the fruits of your labor. The open views across the water provide an airy feeling rarely found in urban environments. Additionally, the side and front gardens are thoughtfully landscaped, offering extra space and privacy around the home. Together, these elements create a harmonious outdoor space where indoor and outdoor living blend effortlessly. Here, every day feels like a mini holiday — right in your own home.
