Tour
Ground Floor
As you enter the rear house, the grand scale and clear layout immediately stand out. The living floor is designed as an open space, with exposed wooden beams and a mezzanine adding extra height and a remarkable sense of volume. The living room is on the garden side, with multiple French doors and large windows allowing constant natural light and beautiful views of the greenery. The fireplace forms the warm heart of the space, bringing atmosphere and comfort.
Adjacent to the living room is the dining room, which in turn opens onto the spacious kitchen. The kitchen is functionally arranged, with ample work and storage space, a sturdy wooden countertop and views over the surrounding fields. A second dining area has also been added here, ideal for both everyday use and long dinners by the fireplace.
On this floor there are also various practical spaces such as a utility room, storage and a guest toilet.
Sleeping Floor
In the rear house there are three bedrooms. The master bedroom is generously sized, with multiple windows and direct access to a private bathroom with a bathtub, walk-in shower, double sink and daylight via a skylight.
The two other bedrooms share a second bathroom and are ideal for children, guests or as a workroom. Both bathrooms date from the 1990s and are functionally designed.
In the front house there is a fourth, very spacious bedroom featuring characteristic details such as exposed beams and high ceilings. Adjacent is a cozy “opkamer” currently in use as a workroom, but equally suited as an extra bedroom or hobby room.
Outdoor Space
The garden surrounding the farmhouse is roomy, green and enclosed. Mature trees mark the boundary and offer shelter and privacy. From the house there is an unobstructed view of the surrounding landscape; the openness of the fields is in beautiful contrast to the enclosed garden.
At the rear sits a wooden shelter barn, arranged as a sheltered outdoor spot for long summer evenings around the table. Planting is informal and thoughtfully composed, with perennials, old roses and simple borders of stacked stones. Here and there there are signs of use: a croquet set on the lawn, wood stacks, a seating spot under the trees.
At the back of the plot there is a private jetty on the Vecht. The bank is overgrown, the water calm, the view wide open. Here all elements are focused on peace and space — not a frame, but open connection with the landscape.
What stands out is how natural the garden feels in relation to the house. Nothing has been overly landscaped, everything is functional and balanced. The outdoor space is part of everyday use, not decoration, but an extension of the house.

De Melk Koe
Sometimes a place comes along that has it all: peace, space, and the immediate presence of water. Dammerweg 10 is one such place.
Here, you live in a farmhouse that feels autonomous, surrounded by greenery, yet close to the amenities of Weesp and Bussum.
The location along the river Vecht makes this home truly special. There’s room for relaxation, long days spent outdoors, and life in and around the water. The garden, with fruit trees and mature planting, blends seamlessly into this setting. It’s a property that has grown in balance, offering plenty of space to live, work, and enjoy.
This is a stunning place, with the charm of rural life and the comfort of accessibility. A home that brings peace, while keeping you connected to the world around you.
This residential farmhouse combines historical character with functional space. The front house dates back to the mid-18th century and reflects this in its structure and details: a facade stone bearing the year 1747, traditional shutters, and robust brickwork. The symmetrical facades and deep roofline give the building a clear structure.
Behind the front house lies the former barn, now converted into full residential space. A row of roof windows reveals the new function of this volume, without detracting from its original form. Old and new are well balanced here; the contrast between the brick facades and the white-plastered extension enhances the overall clarity.
Inside, exposed beams and a high roof structure create a spacious atmosphere. The layout is straightforward and oriented toward outdoor contact. Large windows offer views of the surrounding greenery, and multiple French doors connect the living spaces to the garden.
The riverside location with a private mooring completes the ensemble. What stands out here is the sense of peace, space, and the sheltered setting, without losing sight of the nearby city.
The rear section has been transformed into a full-fledged living space, with a clear layout and generous proportions. The open floor plan is supported by visible trusses, with a mezzanine that adds extra height and depth to the space. The design is logically structured around sightlines and natural flow.
The living room faces the garden and benefits from large windows and several sets of French doors. Light and views are constantly present. The fireplace forms a central feature — practical in use and atmospheric in style. Multiple seating areas make the space flexible, from informal gatherings to more intimate moments.
The dining room adjoins the kitchen, which is functionally equipped with ample workspace and storage, a sturdy wooden countertop, and views over the surrounding landscape. A second dining table is located in the kitchen near another fireplace, making the space suitable for both everyday use and long dinners.
Everything on this living floor is designed in proportion to the house’s scale. There is space, but no emptiness. Sightlines, materials, and finishes are all in balance — subtle, functional, and pleasant to live in.
The rear section contains three bedrooms, including the master bedroom with direct access to its own bathroom. The room is spacious, features multiple windows, and offers views of the surrounding greenery. The bathroom includes a bathtub, walk-in shower, double sink, and natural light via a skylight.
The other two bedrooms are located on the same side of the house and share a second bathroom. Both bathrooms date from the 1990s and are functionally laid out, in line with the renovation period.
In the front house, there’s a generous bedroom that directly connects to the raised “opkamer,” currently used as a workspace. Original beams, window frames, and ceiling heights have been preserved here, giving the space both character and calm.
The garden surrounding the farmhouse is spacious, green, and secluded. Mature trees mark the boundary of the property, providing shelter and privacy. From the house, there is an open view of the surrounding landscape; the openness of the meadows contrasts beautifully with the enclosed feel of the garden.
At the rear of the property stands a wooden barn, arranged as a sheltered outdoor space — perfect for long summer evenings at the table. The planting is informal yet carefully composed, featuring perennials, old roses, and simple borders of stacked stones. Scattered around are subtle signs of use: a croquet set on the lawn, stacks of firewood, a quiet seating area under the trees.
At the back of the plot, a private jetty extends onto the river Vecht. The bank is overgrown, the water calm, the view expansive. Every element here points to peace and space — not framed or enclosed, but in open connection with the landscape.
What stands out is the natural integration of the garden with the house. Nothing feels overly designed; everything is functional and in harmony. The outdoor space is not a backdrop, but a natural extension of daily life in the home.
