Mixed building for sale - Ranst RBU11194

A place that breathes history and promises a future

In the rural village of Ranst, nestled between fields and forests, you’ll find this authentic farmhouse on a beautiful plot of approximately 6,719 m². A true haven of peace, where charm and opportunity go hand in hand.

Originally built in 1857, the farmhouse has been carefully expanded and adapted over the years, always with respect for the soul of the building. Think exposed beams, natural materials, and cosy spaces where history still whispers. Today, it’s a move-in-ready home with warm character and exceptional potential.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a spacious living area with a charming bar – perfect for those who appreciate atmosphere and authenticity. The country-style kitchen connects seamlessly and is fully equipped for real cooking enthusiasts. On the ground floor, you’ll also find a home office, a practical laundry room, storage space, a separate guest toilet, and access to the cellar.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a large master bedroom with ensuite bathroom. A second bathroom and an additional toilet are located off the hallway.

The surrounding garden is a green oasis, ideal for relaxation. At the rear of the property stands a large outbuilding waiting for a new purpose. Workshop, horse stables, guesthouse – the possibilities are endless.

Bonus: adjoining B&B with room for expansion

Next to the main house lies a beautifully renovated former barn of approximately 390 m², currently operating as a licensed B&B. It features five luxurious guest rooms, each with private bathroom and toilet, a welcoming reception area, and a spacious open kitchen. A tranquil setting where guests can enjoy comfort, nature, and silence.

Behind the B&B are two large hangars, ideal for those dreaming of further expansion – whether for horses, additional guest facilities, or a return to the agricultural roots of the property.
