Neck

Living in expansive Neck - overlooking the iconic mill

In a place where time seems to stand still, with the green meadows of the Wijdewormer as the daily backdrop and the Neck mill (1631) as the highlight, this charming home is ready for a new lover. A characteristic house with sunny garden, spacious guest house and a view that never gets boring.

Built in the 1930s, this detached house has been carefully modernised over the years, without losing its authentic character. The property exudes space, tranquillity and rural living, less than 20 minutes from Amsterdam.

An atmosphere of the past, with the comfort of today
You enter through the original front door, which leads to an entrance hall with stained-glass details, a nod to the past. The living room is wonderfully light thanks to the generous windows and conservatory, with a wood-burning stove as an atmospheric eye-catcher. From your favourite chair, you look out over the vast polder landscape, with the historic windmill as your daily view.

The kitchen is rustic in style but modern in use: a 5-burner gas cooker, dishwasher, oven and more are ready to bring culinary ideas to life. The utility room with white goods connections and separate toilet completes the picture.

Space for the whole family and guests
Upstairs are three bedrooms, an extra room for work or hobby, and a well-kept bathroom. The bathroom has a bath with shower, washbasin and toilet. A loft ladder leads to the attic, where there is no shortage of storage space. At the front, you look out over the Wormer and Jisperveld - a protected nature reserve where silence and bird sounds prevail.

In the deep backyard of over 900m², you will find several seating areas, a terrace with a cover through a sunshade and plenty of greenery. External storage space can be found in the shed at the side of the house, and the shed for firewood and barbecue can also be found on the terrace. And as if that were not enough, the plot also boasts a fully-fledged guest house of approx. 32 m² with its own bathroom, living room and bedroom. Ideal for lodgers, older children or working at home.

Sustainable in a characteristic jacket
The current owner has equipped the property with solar panels and air-conditioning installations on both floors of the main house (2018) and in the guest house (2024). The air conditioning is switched on for both cooling and heating, and the bathroom and toilet have electric heating elements. In this way, the house can be heated very cost-effectively.

Neck is a hamlet full of history, where the landscape plays a leading role. Once an important fishing village on the inland sea “Wormer”, it is now a very popular place to live. The hamlet has a primary school with out-of-school care, and the residents of the village are closely knit. The village character sets the tone in Neck. Several supermarkets in Purmerend can be reached within 10 minutes' cycling time.

In the village itself, both the adjacent restaurant Mario and La Storia are very popular. The football club, korfball club and tennis club are also nearby.

Via the A7, you can quickly reach Purmerend, Amsterdam or Schiphol Airport. And with a bus stop in front of the door, you are also easily accessible by public transport.
