Tiendweg 28

LUXURY RURAL MANOR WITH FULLY INDEPENDENT DETACHED HOUSE.

In a highly sought-after rural location on the outskirts of the Silver City of Schoonhoven stands this characteristic, thatched-roof rural manor (272 m²), originally built in 1914 and almost completely reconstructed in 2008. Finished with exquisite craftsmanship and premium materials, the residence offers a spacious living area, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a study.

Next to the main residence stands a fully independent detached house (143 m²), also rebuilt in 2008 with a focus on sustainability and detail. Designed as a fully self-contained living unit, it is ideal as accommodation for relatives, multigenerational living, or operating a bed & breakfast.

The estate is situated on a beautifully enclosed 2,000 m² plot completely surrounded by water, offering privacy and the tranquility of island living. The lush, professionally landscaped garden invites meaningful outdoor living: late summer evenings under the veranda or in the rear garden house, a fire in the garden, and children playing in and around the water. It is not only a unique residential experience, but also an ideal environment for children, with ample outdoor space, minimal traffic, and scenic surroundings.

Schoonhoven—renowned for its rich history, charming city center, and extensive amenities—is located nearby. Its terraces, shops, schools, and cultural appeal as the Dutch Silver City make everyday life both practical and inspiring. Situated in the heart of the “Green Heart” near the River Lek, the location is ideal for walking, cycling, and enjoying nature. This rural manor combines country living with the comforts of a vibrant town. Utrecht, Rotterdam, Gouda, and Gorinchem are only 30 minutes away; The Hague, Leiden, Haarlem, and Amsterdam are also easily accessible.

A PLACE WHERE TRANQUILITY, SPACE, AND OUTDOOR LIVING MEET

A private bridge with a remote-controlled wrought-iron gate provides access to the fully paved courtyard with generous parking for both the manor (Tiendweg 28) and the fully independent detached house (Tiendweg 28a).
Entry to the manor is located along the side of the property, opening into a grand reception hall with double-height ceilings, an impressive staircase, and mezzanine. From here, you access the living room with open kitchen, study, toilet, utility room, and upper floor.

The expansive living area (approx. 75 m²) is truly breathtaking. Large floor-to-ceiling folding doors on two sides provide panoramic views and seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living. A glass partition divides the space into a generous lounge area and dining section. The floor features large tiles with underfloor heating. The luxury Bulthaup kitchen with island includes an induction hob with ceiling-integrated extractor, fridge-freezer, Liebherr wine cooler, steam oven, built-in Miele coffee machine, plate warmer, and oven. The raised bar table offers the perfect setting for entertaining guests.
The adjacent utility room (approx. 8 m²) offers additional storage, a sink, and direct access to the garden.

The front room (approx. 28 m²), with its own entrance, is currently used as a study and includes extensive built-in cabinetry, including the electrical panel. Its calming ambiance also suits use as a TV lounge or relaxation space.

EVERY ROOM SPACIOUS AND BEAUTIFULLY FINISHED

A sweeping staircase leads to the first-floor landing with mezzanine. From here you reach the master suite (with en-suite bathroom, wellness area, and walk-in closet), three bedrooms, a second bathroom, laundry room, and separate toilet. The entire level features solid Jatoba hardwood flooring and exposed beams.

The master suite (approx. 47 m²) boasts impressive ceiling height. A mezzanine level houses a wellness area with sauna. The adjoining bathroom includes an oversized double walk-in shower, jacuzzi, underfloor heating, double washbasin with cabinetry, and extensive storage. The walk-in closet completes the space.

The two rear bedrooms (each approx. 20 m²) include mezzanine levels and access to the balcony.

The fourth bedroom (approx. 12 m²) is ideal as a guest room or children’s room.

The second bathroom (approx. 7 m²) includes a jacuzzi, walk-in shower, washbasin with storage, and underfloor heating.

The expansive landscaped garden features fruit trees, magnolias, hydrangeas, and mature trees that provide a park-like atmosphere. Multiple terraces sit alongside the house, by the water, and at the fully pile-supported garden house (27 m²), offering a place to enjoy the outdoors at any time of day. A robotic lawnmower maintains the lawn, while irrigation and drainage systems ensure optimal soil conditions. Decorative lighting illuminates key trees after dusk.

THE FULLY INDEPENDENT DETACHED HOUSE: MULTIFUNCTIONAL AND FULLY EQUIPPED

This stand-alone residence offers countless possibilities: ideal for parents wishing to live independently nearby, young adults transitioning to independence, or private guest accommodation.
It is also highly suitable for commercial use, such as operating a stylish bed & breakfast—its countryside setting combined with the historic allure of Schoonhoven makes it attractive to visitors seeking peace and authenticity.

The residence features a private entrance leading into a large living space (approx. 60 m²). Behind it lies a spacious kitchen/dining room (approx. 40 m²) with new kitchen and French doors to a private terrace. A laundry room and separate toilet complete the ground floor.

A staircase leads to the first floor with extensive built-in storage, master bedroom, dressing room (which can be converted into a second bedroom), a recently renovated bathroom, and a separate toilet.
