#homes the netherlands

Such a lovely, welcoming estate that they call a textile villa. I don't know what that is, except that the owner worked in textiles. The home was built in 1906 in the Netherlands, as a country home, but the family loved it so much that they decided to stay permanently, so the owner built an office wing and worked from home in 1916. 3bds, 3ba, 6,404.53 sq ft, Price On Request (Must be staggering.)

The house is just as lovely as ever. I don't think I've seen a wallpapered sun porch before. The flooring is orignal.

Isn't this a beautiful sitting room? Look at the unusual fireplace. The mirror is set into the actual hooded mantle and the bricks make a red & black striped pattern.

That light fixture! It doesn't come furnished, but those soft green velvet chairs just make you want to settle in.

Muraled wallpaper in this room is so inviting. And, look at the chandelier.

Spacious kitchen in soothing green tones. Look at that stove and matching hood.

The dining room has built-in storage with a fireplace on one wall. I love the soft pink and how the wallpaper ties in with the furnishings.

They chose to ignore the orange tile on the fireplace, keeping it original rather than replacing it. My mother was a designer and it's not unusual to simply ignore certain elements like carpet color, etc. and proceed with the chosen color scheme. But, note how the flames and a few orange glass bottles pull those colors in.

This rustic lounge is amazing. The plants complement the colors of the velvet fabrics.

The wonderful wallpaper extends out to the hall.

A surprise at the top of the stairs- I didn't expect a library. What a great idea.

Very spacious primary bedroom with an original built-in cabinet. How cozy. Love the fireplace and how they closed it off with decorative tile.

Big, beautiful remodeled bath.

The stylized vintage/modern soaker tub was the perfect choice.

Love this spacious rosy room with a door to a pretty porch.

This home is so beautiful. (And, it's not gray or white.) Look at this wonderful little retreat-for-one to sit, read, and relax beneath a gorgeous chandelier.

They kept the original tile in the back hall off the kitchen and prettied it up with beautiful wallpaper.

And, we're back at the sun room/conservatory with the doors open to the patio.

Beautiful patio and gardens.

The approx. 12.9 acre grounds are partially open to the public to enjoy, with boundaries. A number of places are private, fenced off, and expressly closed to visitors. The fen, for example, they kept to themselves, to swim and relax at the water's edge (well, it is their home, so is there an electrified fence or what?). The current owners are on good terms with the residents of the town: “They have seen how the metamorphosis of the estate and the villa took place and appreciate that they are allowed to walk and cycle here.”

Would you, as the new owner, allow them to continue? (They damned well better throw me a welcoming party first.)

The elderly on the bench, retirement home Alkmaar, Netherlands, 1953 - by Éva Besnyö (1910 - 2003), Hungarian/Dutch

[hometoursandotherstuff]

I love this one- give me an old house with art, and I'm there for it. This bright yellow 1870 home with the green doors is in Kampen, Netherlands, has 3bds, 3ba, 1,722.23 sqft, $549,885.

Open the front door and the first thing you see in the long hall is a mural.

Open this door to go up to the 2nd floor.

We emerge into a cute, cozy apt.

There's a roomy 1/2 bath with lovely vintage tile.

Then, we enter a spacious, bright living room with a vintage wood stove installed in a fancy mantel. Look at all the little doors. How cute is that?

Then, right around the corner from the living room, there's a cozy dining area.

Outside the kitchen there's a cute little china shelf and cabinet. Also, look at the leaded glass window.

This is like a family room area with a brick wall and cute window. Also look at the original wide board floors.

The roomy vintage kitchen is sweet. Love that light fixture.

Big exhaust hood in the corner. Nice cabinets - some have cute mismatched curtains.

Vintage tile backsplash and brass faucet.

And, look at the kitchen sink.

So cute.

The kitchen door opens to this lovely rooftop deck and it's also the view from the kitchen windows. There's even a little storage shed.

Stairs to the uppermost level.

Look at this bedroom- it has a bowl sink and a little sleeping nook with storage underneath. This would be so much fun for a child.

There's also shelving and a large drop leaf table.

This bedroom is very pretty. Lovely beams and a pitched ceiling.

There's also a nice tile bath up here.

This room would make a cute art studio.

There's also a little bedroom tucked in here.

And, a little office nook. There's a lot going on up here.

Behind the green doors in the front there are 2 garage areas.

Down the street.
