Historic farmhouse with unobstructed views, guest accommodation and impressive barn on a generous plot in Finsterwolde

Set along a charming rural lane, surrounded by expansive farmlands and centuries-old trees, this exceptionally atmospheric and fully renovated gentleman’s farmhouse is a rare find. Hoofdweg 34 in Finsterwolde is a spacious country residence comprising a main house with integrated apartment, a multi-purpose barn with soaring roof height, a beautifully landscaped park garden with a 10x10 metre veranda under a traditional haystack frame, and breathtaking open views to the rear. The entire estate exudes tranquillity, quality and authenticity.

Originally built in 1850, the main residence was reconstructed in 1892 after destruction. The front façade of this monumental home is a tribute to the rich architectural tradition of Groningen. Its symmetrical front elevation with natural stone steps, ornate brickwork, decorative plasterwork and tall windows framed by elegant cornices proudly displays the craftsmanship of a bygone era. In recent years, the property has been fully renovated with great respect for its original features and with a refined sense of style. Numerous sustainability measures have been implemented, including a renewed and insulated roof, interior wall insulation finished with plasterboard, double glazing and a hybrid heat pump with modern central heating system. These features have significantly improved energy efficiency without compromising comfort. During the comprehensive renovation, old oil tanks were removed and the chimney in the kitchen dismantled to create space.

The total usable floor area of the main house is approx. 333 m², supplemented by approx. 860 m² of internal barn space, a 72 m² basement with standing height, and a total plot size of 5,873 m². Behind the stylish façade lies a home where atmosphere, comfort and history merge seamlessly.

Location
Finsterwolde is a ribbon village in the Oldambt region, bordering the nature reserve De Tjamme and located near Blauwestad and the Oldambtmeer lake. The setting is rural yet surprisingly central: Winschoten is just a 10-minute drive, and Groningen city can be reached within 30 minutes. The area is ideal for cycling enthusiasts and water sports lovers alike.

Layout
Entrance and Hallway
The imposing front door with wrought iron details opens into a stylish reception hall with marble flooring, wainscoting and high ceilings with refined plasterwork. This stately corridor forms the central axis of the home, granting access to the front and rear living rooms, kitchen, utility room, bathroom, cellar, toilet and a storage room. A side door leads to the barn and former stables.

Living Room (Front Room)
Located at the front of the house, the charming living room radiates grandeur, thanks to its high ceilings, tall sash windows, deep window sills, original wooden floors and a historical fireplace with antique stove. Classic wallpaper, rich detailing and views of the mature trees in the front garden enhance the warm, welcoming atmosphere. This room, like the adjacent formal dining room, features a gas heater and has been insulated from below via the cellar.

Dining Room (Reception Room)
This impressive space features deep-set windows on two sides, an ornate mantelpiece, elegant wallpaper and a blue-toned painted ceiling with decorative mouldings. The built-in wall includes a box bed and three cupboards, creating both charm and functionality. Perfect as a formal dining room or private library.

Kitchen-Diner
The spacious kitchen harmonises perfectly with the home’s overall style and is fitted with a black natural stone floor, traditional wooden cabinetry, a classic AGA cooker with halogen hobs, electric grill and ovens, and a tiled hearth. Double windows ensure ample daylight and views of the greenery. The kitchen forms part of the oldest, lower-level central section of the house.

This central part also contains the bathroom, utility room, pantry and guest toilet, as well as access to the cellar. The tiled floors in this section benefit from underfloor heating.

Bathroom, Utility Room and Laundry
The ground-floor bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, toilet, washbasin and shower. The utility room, accessible via the kitchen, features the original tiled floor, a traditional pump, double sinks and connections for laundry appliances, offering ample storage space.

First Floor
The upper floor was completely renovated during the refurbishment. Old subfloors were removed and rebuilt, creating a large loft-like space. This floor now accommodates a charming office/sitting area, two bedrooms, a stylish bathroom and a separate toilet. The luxurious bathroom features a freestanding bathtub under a skylight, a spacious walk-in shower and a custom vanity unit. The combination of timber elements with natural stone wall tiles provides a serene and elegant ambiance. Five recently installed Velux skylights with double glazing ensure abundant daylight. Heating is provided via the hybrid heat pump.

Self-Contained Apartment – Characterful and Independent
Situated on the western side of the barn is a fully self-contained apartment with a private entrance. This cosy living space exudes rustic charm and has its own central heating system. The inviting living area features a gas stove, timber-panelled walls, exposed beams and a mezzanine. The kitchen is equipped with a ceramic sink, electric hob, metro-style tiling and wooden cabinetry. The bathroom includes a bathtub with shower, washbasin and washing machine. A separate toilet is tucked beneath the staircase. The mezzanine floor offers two intimate sleeping nooks, a wardrobe and access to the barn’s entresol. This apartment is ideal for guests, live-in care, or as a high-quality B&B.

Orangery and Barn – Impressive and Versatile
The former rear section has been transformed into a multi-purpose space with exposed brick walls and visible timber beams. Translucent roof panels allow for soft daylight. Currently used as an atelier and reception room, it includes a bar setup, zinc countertops and a seating area — suitable for workshops, exhibitions or intimate events. From here, one can access the courtyard and the adjoining barn.

The adjacent barn is truly imposing in both scale and character. It is divided into a traditional stable and an open barn area. The stable includes a former cattle barn with kitchenette, the self-contained apartment and an orangery with natural stone water feature, toilet and translucent solar panels.

From the orangery, one steps into the garden and orchard with various old Dutch fruit trees. A large rainwater-fed pond adds to the idyllic setting.

With a ridge height of over 12 metres, original trusses and a mezzanine level, the barn offers extraordinary potential. The open floor area of approx. 800 m² accommodates a wide variety of uses: art gallery, workshop, camper storage, small-scale livestock keeping or event space. Creatives and entrepreneurs alike will find their freedom here.

The roofs of the orangery and hay barn are equipped with 29 and 9 solar panels respectively, contributing to a more sustainable energy supply.

Garden and Haystack Veranda
At the rear of the property stands a picturesque open haystack structure with galvanised steel roof, sheltering an outdoor kitchen, firepit, bar and several seating areas. This inviting outdoor room provides protection from sun and rain and is ideal for al fresco dining or relaxation. The garden is deep, lush and private, bordered by mature trees that ensure privacy without compromising the view. A glass tea house, garden shed and various sun and shaded terraces complete the outdoor experience. Indoor and outdoor living blend effortlessly.
