Nijetrijne Veendijk 5 Live freely in a former miller’s house on open water at the edge of the De Rottige Meente nature reserve, on a plot of over 2.5 hectares. In a unique location on open water, at the edge of the De Rottige Meente nature reserve, stands this former miller’s house. Originally associated with the nearby “De Rietvink” mill, this house, consisting of a front house, a rear extension, a sleeping area, and the barn, has been expanded over the past decades into a delightful family or holiday home in an exceptionally beautiful location. Here, you are one with nature. The bike path that runs past the mill and the house is a popular cycling and walking route through the De Rottige Meente nature reserve, a favorite destination for nature lovers and bird watchers. To reach Veendijk 5, visitors walk along the Helomavaart to the miller’s house, which can be seen from afar next to the mill. Here, most things are done on foot, by bike, or by boat. Cars can be parked in the spacious parking lot at the bridge over the Helomavaart in Munnekeburen. From there, it is about 800 meters of cycling, walking, or boating to the house, through the beautiful nature reserve. Owners and residents can park next to the house, but the idea is to use the car as little as possible. The surroundings are peaceful, with only the sounds of nature and the picturesque view of the peatlands, reed beds, and the Helomavaart. Miller’s House The property consists of no fewer than five parts. On the dike side are the white miller’s house and the white barn, connected by a box-shaped entrance.

The whole is charming and equipped with all conveniences. This is not a place for excess, but a place where 'less is more' sets the atmosphere. The property has 5 bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, dining room, large barn, laundry room, and a bathroom. The view at the back is breathtaking, with reed beds and the green landscape in the distance.

Outdoors What is unique about this place is that the house is located by water on both the front and back sides. At the front, the Veendijk runs along the house with the bike path and the Helomavaart, a waterway that forms an important connection between various Frisian lakes and the Weerribben-Wieden National Park. The Veendijk runs along the water and offers a beautiful view of the surrounding nature. The dike not only functions as protection against flooding but is also an important element of the historical landscape of the region. The Helomavaart is ideal for water recreation, such as boating, canoeing, and fishing. There is a dock by the canal with space for a boat. At the rear lies the beautiful De Rottige Meente nature reserve, a protected nature area known for its rich biodiversity and breathtaking beauty. This area consists of peat bogs, reed beds, and open water, and is home to a variety of birds, plants, and other animals. It is a popular destination for walkers, cyclists, and bird watchers. It is particularly notable that this former miller’s house includes almost 2.5 hectares of its own land with characteristic reed land, shrubs, and water. The freedom here is immense, as the water and reed lands are also part of this estate. Location Located in the De Rottige Meente nature reserve, near the village of Nijetrijne in the municipality of Weststellingwerf, Friesland, this property offers the perfect balance between rural living and proximity to urban amenities. With driving times of about 20 minutes to Heerenveen, 40 minutes to Zwolle and Leeuwarden, and within an hour to the Randstad, this location is ideal for those who want to enjoy the tranquility of the countryside without giving up the conveniences of the city.
