Leusderend, landgoed in Leusden, Nederland
Leusderend is an estate in the Dutch municipality of Leusden that arranges three new pavilions around a central courtyard, with a historic villa and meeting place with restaurant at its center. The grounds are surrounded by forests, sports fields and walking paths, offering a mix of modern office spaces and green outdoor areas for work and relaxation.
The main building was constructed between 1916 and 1917 by architect M.J. Klijnstra and initially used as a country estate by the De Beaufort family. After the Second World War, the property was acquired in 1937 by the Salesians of Don Bosco, who operated it as a school and boarding house before it was transformed into a modern business park in the 1990s.
The estate takes its name from its location at the far edge of the historic Den Treek area, reflected in the name 'Leusder-end'. Today, businesses and visitors use the grounds as a place for collaboration and exchange, where personal connections between residents develop and are maintained.
The grounds are easy to reach and located near the A28 highway along a side road that keeps it away from busy streets. Bus stops are nearby, Amersfoort train station is accessible, and parking is available for around 500 cars plus bicycle stations for easy arrival by various means.
During the Second World War, the building was occupied by German troops and used as a munitions storage facility, reflecting its eventful history. After liberation, the estate was restored and now serves as a successful bridge between past and modern working conditions.
