Luxury holiday home in Nieblum on the island of Föhr

As soon as you arrive on the island of Föhr and leave the busy mainland behind, you know: Here I can relax and let go. When you cross the threshold of the majestic commander's house, you will already be fascinated by the spacious and historic domicile. It was built in 1751 by Commander Jacob Harrsen, the head of an established family of seafarers from Föhr.

With its light wooden floors, quaint wooden beams and hand-painted ceiling paintings, the lavish Frisian house is something very special. Carefully restored, the historic elements have been given a facelift and were combined with selected objets d'art and great attention to detail. Fine textiles, friendly, bright rooms and modern comforts make the large thatched house a feel-good place that allows you to enjoy your island getaway with all your senses. The heart of the property is the extensive and lushly flowering garden. The beautiful and well-kept garden area of about 1000 square meters is protected from prying eyes and invites you to spend a relaxing vacation there. Amidst the blossoms you will find a furnished terrace, comfortable loungers and even a beach chair where you can unwind in style.

The 146 sqm large and representative first floor of the Commander House has a luxuriously furnished living room with an antique tiled stove and a fully equipped kitchen in a cozy country style. The adjoining dining room with its historic ceiling paintings provides an impressive direct view into the spacious garden. In addition, the idyllic and cozy fireplace room and two bedrooms can be found on the first floor.

On the upper floor, which extends over an area of more than 100 square meters, a total of 3 bedrooms offer enough space for guests. A luxuriously equipped bathroom and an infrared sauna guarantee wellness moments. A light-flooded office to work undisturbed and a wonderful leisure room for yoga or family table tennis allow space to meet a wide variety of needs. The lush garden of over 1000 square meters, protected from view, has a furnished terrace with deck chairs and beach chair.

Throughout the house there are well-maintained wooden floors - the first floor is painted in Flemish style, while the upper floor is painted white in Swedish style. Furniture and accessories have been carefully selected and are matching the maritime character of the house.

Special details such as the beautiful old Frisian tiles and the lovingly restored tiled stove in the living room will take you on a journey into history. Fearless captains and proud commanders from Föhr sailed around the world and brought prosperity to the island through trade and whaling.

The spacious garden was designed by a renowned garden architect. The sunny terrace is surrounded by a true splendor of flowers. You will find few places on Föhr where you can relax in such style and tranquility.
