Houdringe, National monument building in De Bilt, Netherlands.

The Houdringe building exhibits a rectangular layout with side wings and features a flat roof above two floors in classicist architectural style.

The construction of Houdringe, designed by architect Abraham van der Hart, replaced an older structure and was completed in 1779 by the Utrecht regent family Van Westrenen.

The interior contains original elements from 1780, including marble fireplaces, painted ceilings, and stucco work that represent Dutch architectural craftsmanship.

Located at De Holle Bilt 22, the estate functions as an office building, while the northeastern park section remains open for public access.

The entrance features a 1902 gatehouse and an 1858 brick playhouse, with landscape design contributions by Jan David Zocher Jr from before 1924.
