Strawbale house near to Tongeren-B and Maastricht-NL

Dear home exchange friends!

Welcome in our house, one of the first strawbale houses of Belgium, built in 2003 with the natural materials wood, straw and clay. We have renovated our house in the summer of 2022. It is a very cosy and warm house, open to the first floor. We have many big windows to our beautiful garden, where you can eat on the terrace and swim in our swimming pond.
On the ground flour there is a kitchen with a coocking island, a dining room, a living room. All these funtions are compacted in one open space without walls and doors. Also on the ground flour: one bathroom, two toilets and a scullery.
On the first floor we have one very big master bedroom with a library, a sitting area with sofa and a long desk. There are 2 more bedrooms .
We have a big, nice modern garden with a natural swimming pond, built in 2022.
You can use our bycicles.
We like music, so you will find a piano and some guitars.
