Situated in De Cocksdorp, surrounded by the forest of Krimbos and the shores of Texel, this modern thatched home offers both stunning architectural features and raw natural beauty. Showcasing Dutch minimalism with playful touches, this home is uniquely positioned along the Wadden coastline, whose pristine beaches and grass-topped dunes are idyllic for a family retreat. An expanse of glass windows allows the light to fill the stylishly designed living space – perfect for spending your mornings with a breakfast spread of muesli and coffee before lounging in the swing seat with your new read. After a leisurely morning, head out for a walk along the dunes, up to the northern tip to see the Texel lighthouse – this area is rich with diverse bird species. We recommend the twenty-minute drive to Ecomare where you’ll find a wildlife sanctuary of seals. This home covers the bases for every member of the family – after that afternoon stroll, indulge in a sauna session or play some games in the garden before cosying up on the linen sofas, the statement fireplace softly crackling. The open-plan kitchen and dining room layout provides a perfectly sociable setting for preparing indulgent dinners. The plush and tranquil bedrooms have starry views out the glass windows, so you can fall asleep under the soft glow of the night sky.
