Farmhouse full of charm with workshop and romantic orchard

On a quiet country road, surrounded by fields and fields, with the village center of Bassevelde to the west and Assenede to the east, 24 kilometers from Ghent, lies this über-charming farmhouse. A new part was added to the existing building around 2000, yet the original charm was beautifully preserved throughout. You step into the authentic part, with right in front of you the handy laundry room. Here you can even do your laundry with a view of greenery! The door on the left leads to the sitting room, with a lovely view of the fruit trees in the huge garden. Climb the stairs and you come to the voute or upstairs room, which now houses the office, or which could also become a great playroom or relaxation area. Go up the stairs and you'll find a nice bedroom on both the left and right. Rounding the corner takes you through a built-in cabinetry to the bathroom with romantic, freestanding tub and shower. Right in front of you is the third bedroom. Large dining room, with enough room for a robust farm table, and next to it the equally charming country kitchen with beautiful floor tiles from a former school and - the dream of many - a real AGA stove. The cute tile floors and exposed beams in the ceiling give an irresistible cachet to this place. The lush garden has a total area of no less than 3051 m2, including 1581 m2 of orchard. Artists live it up in the studio in the outbuilding, and the second outhouse is perfect for unforgettable children's sleepovers.
