Brinkstraat 17, Anloo

Attractive and preserved family home in the beautiful ash village of Anloo. Anloo has the oldest church in Drenthe (11th century) and is known for the Etstoeldag, where a 17th-century court session - an Etstoel - is reenacted.

The village with its 400 inhabitants has an elementary school, an inn, a real Italian restaurant and a well-developed social structure. Most primary amenities can be found in Annen, located 2 km away. Assen and Groningen are easily accessible from Anloo. Nature is present in abundance.

The house was originally built in 1960 and has been adapted to the demands of the time over the past 65 years, without losing its character. Brinkstraat 17 is located in old Anloo, near a brink and with historic buildings around it, as one would expect from a Drenthe esdorp. Wherever possible, the house has been adapted to current sustainability requirements, but with an eye for character and functionality.

With a spacious and inspired layout on the first floor and four bedrooms upstairs, it's a true family home that won't quickly become too small. Storage space for Christmas and camping gear is available in the basement and attic of the main house, as well as in the attic above the porch. The house is in excellent condition and can be moved into without any problems.

Entrance in side wall. Hall with staircase, meter cupboard, storage room, basement access (dry, headroom 1.74m and approx. 9m²), access to the living room (30m²) with wood stove and lockable study (4.5m²). Tussenhal with access to toilet with fountain and storage room with WMA. Finally, the garden-oriented living kitchen (20m²) with French doors. This space was until 2010 a barn that has been completely converted into a kitchen diner. The kitchen layout also dates from that time, except for the dishwasher (2023).
The floor has on the landing four bedrooms, a master bedroom with closets(11m²), two bedrooms of about 7.5m² and a children's bedroom of over 5m². The spacious bathroom has a toilet, double sink and shower. A loft ladder on the landing provides access to the attic.

In the backyard we find under the canopy a lovely porch with partly glass walls a wood stove, so that you can relax well into autumn, and above it a storage attic. Next to the house (west side) is space to store (electric) bikes under a shed.

All in all, a comfortable, cozy family home in a historic village center in a beautiful setting, immediately move in, and with all amenities a short distance away.

PS For those who can't get enough, the neighboring house at no. 15 is also for sale.
