Apartment Estate Erve Den Dam

Holiday home near LANDGOED ERVE DEN  DAM  in the Hof van Twente (Goor)

For the coming months: NO  CANCELLATION FEES  !!

The holiday home at Erve Den Dam was built in 2011 in an old Twente barn from 1909, presumably the year the farm was built. The barn was renovated with mostly old building materials in order to remain in the style of the early^20th century. The tiles and other materials left over in the house were reused and supplemented. 

From a historic farm in the area - Erve Ziethof Bee, located in Ambt Delden  -  demolished before the year 2000 , a fireplace was cut from a large Bentheimer stone foundation plinth . Doors from this farm were also reused. Straight through the apartment are the oak trusses that form the basis of the building. The entire room was equipped with central heating with underfloor heating. The L-shaped room contains the kitchen with all modern comforts, such as a combination microwave, induction plate with extractor hood and dishwasher. In the full kitchen, in addition to a kettle, there  is always coffee for the Senseo machine, div. types of tea and various herbs. In the room a TV with 65 channels, radio and  internet connection; also wifi.  All windows are located on South and West, the flat skylights provide sufficient light. A private terrace on the Southwest -  equipped with garden furniture - provides sun and privacy. The bedroom contains 2 single beds of 80x200 cm with electric control, equipped with sheep's wool duvets. The beds will be made if you request this at the time of booking.  If not, you will have to bring all the bedding yourself. (pillowcases, bottom sheets and single duvet covers)  The bathroom has a shower, toilet and a spacious sink.  Shower towels, washcloths, tea towels and kitchen towels are provided. The utility room contains the central heating system, wardrobe, a  washing machine with clotheslines above,   vacuum cleaner and storage space.  In a small shed there is space for bicycles that can be charged there.  Surface of the house approx. 65 m2.

The farm itself from 1909 was renovated between 1970 and 1976.  From the year 2000, the entire complex has the status of an estate within the meaning of the Nature Conservation Act 1928, after various adjacent lands had been purchased to a total of  more than 6 ha.  The estate status requires that 1/3 of the land must be planted or forested. Many hedges were also planted. The grounds consist of meadows,   an orchard, various pieces of forest and sheep pastures, a total of more than 6 hectares. Over the years, gardens were laid out by colour. Once a year, the garden was open to members of Groei en Bloei – Hengelo department. In the October 2011 issue of the magazine  Groei en Bloei an extensive report about the garden was published (page 44). The garden could also be visited through the Dutch Garden Foundation. Dogs are welcome but they must always be on a leash outside the house because of grazing sheep. The house is wheelchair friendly and all on one level.
In addition to its own grounds, there is plenty of privacy and a completely green view over the landscape.

Apart from the rental as a holiday home, this house can also be rented for a  longer period.  Please contact real estate agent Elst & Co in Hengelo for this.
