DESCRIPTION
The farm dates back to its original construction in 1800, but there has been habitation on this site since as early as 1300 (see explanation below this text). Since 2015, the entire property has been renovated with a lot of taste, luxury and craftsmanship, almost entirely new and made sustainable. With a sense for style and detail, the farmhouse has been transformed into a beautiful home with an equally charming B&B, which was built entirely new in 2020. The garden is beautifully laid out with various seating areas, each offering optimal privacy and a stunning view. The adjoining pasture of almost 1 hectare is ideal for hobby farming with small livestock.

ENVIRONMENT
Located directly next to the natural area De Onlanden and near Leekstermeer, yet still close to the friendly city of Groningen. This is without exaggeration a unique location. Open views are rare to guarantee in the Netherlands, but here — right in the middle of a protected natural landscape. Roderwolde has approximately 350 inhabitants and has a day care center and primary school. Due to the absence of major through roads, it is here pleasant to live quietly. Characteristic for Roderwolde are the distinctive old farms and the historical mill Woldzicht from 1852. The location between Roden and Groningen is ideal, with beautiful walking and cycling routes in the immediate vicinity. For water sports enthusiasts, the Leekstermeer area is within short distance.

Noteworthiness
Explanation of Construction Year
It has come to light through the municipal archive of Roderwolde that people have been living at Achtersteweg 6 since 1300. Therefore, the house is one of the oldest houses in Roderwolde. Around 1830, the church of Roderwolde was moved to its current location on Hoofdstraat, and the cemetery is located outside the village and can be seen from the back of the house. The then owner helped in tearing down the church that had been built with so-called convent mopps. He used these mopps to build his house. In the entrance hall, they can still be seen in the hallway and bathroom. Besides many whole stones, also a lot of half stones were used. At that time, materials were expensive and were recycled in this way to save money.
The cloister mops were from ‘De Kleibosch’ located at the edge of the stream valley of the Peizerdiep. It is a very wet forest, if you walk along the winding paths through the forest, you see remnants of old clay pits everywhere. Once the clay excavated here was used for making cloister mops and roof tiles, which were baked on site. The first stones were baked by monks in the year 1100. Read the full description
