Traditional agricultural farmhouse

Havelte, Drenthe, The Netherlands view map

The farmhouse was built as a traditional agricultural dwelling with an attached farm section. It features a large, sloping thatched hipped roof with an owl board (the triangular wooden hatch at the top of the roof for ventilation and owls).

The large, dark green doors (rear barn doors) formerly provided access for horse and carriage.
Today, the property is used for residential purposes.

It is a very handsome building; I especially like the owl door! And the thatched roof and the nod to tradition. Very well captured. VV
