  Description

  We are a Dutch-South African family with three kids working towards a self sustainable lifestyle. We just bought this former chicken farm in Holland and are busy making the house homely. We are planning to grow vegetables and have some chickens, however we still need to finish an outside chicken coop. There are also some fruit and nuts trees. We have a dog.
  
  The plot is 4500 m2. Setting is beautiful, with views of the woods and fields.
  
  It is less than 2 km from the village with a supermarket, some restaurants and cafés.
  
  Walking distance from the woods, with a lake to swim in.
  
  - We used to live in South Africa on a small holding, we moved back to the Netherlands -
