Zuid-Holland, Nieuwe-Tonge, Netherlands

At Battenoordsedijk 17 in Nieuwe-Tonge, you will find a rare and architecturally distinctive residence. A white, detached villa that rises like a work of art in the expansive landscape of Goeree-Overflakkee. The property is set on a magnificent private estate of five hectares, featuring water features, varying elevations, and natural banks. The result is a place where tranquility, space, and architectural vision converge into a harmonious overall experience.

What immediately stands out is the impressive glass façade, measuring 15 metres wide and 4 metres high, effortlessly connecting the interior with the surrounding landscape. Here, you do not merely look at nature—you live with it. Built in 2013, the home was designed with sustainability, light, and simplicity in mind. Every detail contributes to the serene atmosphere that this residence radiates.

Upon entering, you step into a generous open-plan living space where living, cooking, and relaxing blend seamlessly. The BAVA lighting is not only a visual feature but also incorporates an advanced ventilation system that provides fresh air 24 hours a day. The floor is equipped with an advanced heating and cooling system, consisting of over 3,200 metres of piping divided across 35 zones. Three heat pumps ensure a comfortable indoor climate throughout every season.

Tour of the property
The living room forms the impressive heart of the home. The frameless glass façade allows uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape. Two large sliding doors provide direct access to the terrace, blurring the boundary between indoors and outdoors. The high ceiling and continuous circular skylight create a striking sense of space and light. At the centre of the room is a fireplace with heat exchanger—both atmospheric and efficient.

The living area connects directly to the central hall and an intermediate hallway leading to the master bedroom and the atelier. As such, this space functions not only as the spatial but also the functional centre of the home.

The kitchen is seamlessly integrated into the open-plan concept. This high-quality Bulthaup kitchen features a cooking and prep island with a composite worktop, complemented by a practical wall of cabinets. Appliances include an induction hob, Quooker, combi-oven, steam oven, large refrigerator, separate freezer, dishwasher, and ample storage space.

The master bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious bathroom with a freestanding bathtub, double vanity unit, and walk-in shower. A mosaic artwork covering the entire wall adds a vibrant focal point. Light, views, and tranquility are paramount here.

At the front of the property is a spacious, light-filled atelier overlooking the estate. This inspiring space includes a kitchenette and, thanks to its location and connection to the intermediate hallway, offers both peace and independence while maintaining a connection to the main house.

In the other wing of the home, a fully equipped guest suite has been realised, featuring its own bedroom and a generous bathroom with bathtub, walk-in shower, and wash basin. Guests can enjoy complete privacy, while remaining directly connected to the main residence. Adjacent to this is a separate office with its own entrance, pantry with refrigerator, and separate toilet. This space is highly suitable for working from home and can also function as a practice space, guest accommodation, or care unit.

Basement level (-1)
Beneath almost the entire house lies a full-fledged basement level, which far exceeds standard expectations in both size and finish. Via an illuminated driveway, you access the basement through an electric door leading to the internal garage. With a ceiling height of approximately three metres, this level is set up as a workshop, storage space, car garage, and technical area.

It also houses the distribution system for the underfloor heating, a central vacuum system, and an electric vehicle charging point. Everything is professionally designed with sustainability and practicality in mind. A fixed staircase connects the basement to the living areas.

The estate
Surrounding the villa is a uniquely landscaped estate featuring lakes, sandy areas, reed zones, and height variations that combine privacy, biodiversity, and natural beauty. Once the lowest point of Battenoord, the land was raised using 100,000 cubic metres of soil. The deep lakes and rolling banks make swimming, walking, and enjoying nature an everyday privilege.

Additional features
The property is not connected to the municipal sewer system, but instead has its own professionally installed wastewater treatment system. Underground, a large tank with a purification unit processes wastewater in an environmentally friendly manner. This independent system contributes to the self-sufficiency of the estate.

Battenoordsedijk 17 is also designated as a registered estate under the Dutch Natural Beauty Act (Natuurschoonwet 1928 – NSW). This status offers significant fiscal benefits for buyers, such as exemption from transfer tax at purchase, as well as favourable arrangements regarding income and wealth tax (Box 3). Additionally, under certain conditions, there are advantages relating to gift and inheritance tax. The NSW status not only helps preserve the unique character of the estate but also makes it financially attractive for long-term ownership.

This villa is not a conventional home, but a rare, fully integrated concept.
A place for those seeking space, tranquillity, inspiration, and independence. A harmonious interplay of architecture, technology, and landscape—ready for a new owner who appreciates and wishes to continue this exceptional living experience.
