Bruinhorst

Bruinhorst is a country house in Ederveen featuring a balanced symmetrical layout with a separate coach house positioned along the Luntersekade. The structures display classic Dutch residential architecture with regular proportions and well-ordered formal design.

The property first appears in tax documents from the 1600s but underwent significant reconstruction in the late 1800s. This renovation transformed the original fortress-like structure into a refined country residence suited to contemporary tastes.

Today the house serves the Katholiek Apostolische Kerk and remains integrated into local community life. Visitors walking the grounds can sense how the building continues to function within the village rather than existing as a museum piece.

The house sits along a quiet country road and is readily visible from outside, making it easy for visitors to view and photograph the facade and coach house. Since it remains a private residence in active use, visitors should respect the property boundaries and keep to public areas.

The wrought-iron entrance gate features an unusual ornamental touch with two lanterns that separately display the words Bruin and Horst on each side. This split lettering creates a distinctive visual separation of the two parts of the property name.
