LOCATION – THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
This country estate enjoys an exceptional position in the rural outskirts of Asten-Heusden, between Eindhoven and Venlo: complete privacy, surrounded by greenery and meadows, yet strategically located between several larger cities and the innovative heart of Brainport Eindhoven.
Within minutes you reach the A67 and N279, ensuring excellent access to Helmond, Deurne, Venlo, Roermond and Eindhoven. The High Tech Campus, ASML, TU/e and international schools are approximately a 25-minute drive away. Daily amenities, sports clubs and (primary) schools are easily accessible by bike. The rural setting offers a rare tranquillity and spaciousness that is becoming increasingly scarce in this region.

EXCEPTIONAL VALUE – M², M³ AND HECTARES RARELY FOUND ELSEWHERE
In sought-after Brabant high-end villages such as Oisterwijk, Vught, Son en Breugel and Nuenen, the average square-metre prices have been considerably higher for years:
Oisterwijk: €5,200–€5,400 per m²
Vught: €5,000–€5,500 per m²
Son en Breugel / Nuenen: €4,000–€4,500 per m²
By comparison, the average price per m² in the municipality of Asten (including Heusden) is around €3,500–€3,700 per m².
The difference is clear: in many of these premium villages you typically buy homes of 250–300 m² on plots of 600–1,000 m². Here, you get significantly more: approx. 450 m² of living space, approx. 1,650 m³ of volume, over 1.7 hectares of private land, two large multifunctional outbuildings, dual residential zoning, an A energy label and virtually cost-free energy use.
The combination of scale, privacy, authenticity, versatility and energy performance makes the value-for-space-and-quality of this domain practically unmatched in the region.
SUSTAINABILITY
The farmhouse has an A energy label (valid until 06-07-2032). The 48 high-efficiency solar panels on the outbuilding (double garage) cover nearly the full electricity demand, generating approx. 16.8 MWh per year. In 2025, the boilers were replaced with two new Daikin hybrid heat pumps, further optimising energy use.
During reconstruction, the entire roof was renewed with clay tiles and thatching. The wooden roof boards with 14 cm of insulation provide a sleek finish and extra daylight through Velux roof windows. Acoustic ceilings add extra comfort to the living areas.
The floors have optimal insulation and underfloor heating, combined with wooden flooring and high-quality finishes for an exceptionally pleasant indoor climate. The farmhouse also features optimal wall insulation and HR++ insulated glass throughout. All pipes and connections are neatly concealed behind accessible panels.
The left and right wings of the farmhouse are separated by double sound-insulated doors on both ground and first floor.
INTRODUCTION
This impressive Brabant long-façade farmhouse — in every respect an estate — is set in a landscape where peace, space and freedom take centre stage. Completely rebuilt in 2011 with a focus on authenticity and character, where thatch, original materials and subtly integrated modern elements create a remarkably harmonious atmosphere. Inside, every space feels light, warm and elegant, with an interior by Doret Schulkes that blends rural grandeur with contemporary luxury.
The 1.7-hectare domain radiates refined spaciousness: wide views, natural silence and a layout that invites enjoyment — in privacy, with family, or with guests. The two separated residential wings and high-quality outbuildings provide a highly flexible foundation for living, working or hosting at an exclusive level.
Sustainability is seamlessly integrated, with new heat pumps (2025), optimal insulation, HR++ glass and 48 solar panels that make the estate nearly energy-neutral, in line with its A energy label.
The location combines the best of rural living with the convenience of Brainport Eindhoven and cities like Helmond and Weert within close reach. A place where silence becomes a luxury, space feels natural, and every evening ends with a sunset like a painting.
