Scheybeek, Historical estate in Beverwijk, Netherlands.

The rectangular main building features two stories above a basement, with a slate-covered gabled roof and an adjoining garden hall from 1744.

Laurens Joosten Baeck, an Amsterdam sugar merchant, constructed the initial structure in 1625, establishing it as his residential estate.

The garden hall contains an allegorical ceiling painting from 1744 by Fabritius Dubourg, representing classical artistic traditions of the Netherlands.

The estate includes multiple architectural sections: the main house, a garden hall with rounded corners, and a 19th-century kitchen extension.

Dutch poet Joost van den Vondel wrote several poems during his stay at Scheybeek, drawing inspiration from the estate and its surroundings.
