Description of the property

This monumental square-shaped farm, dating from the second half of the 18th century, once belonged to the Benedictine Abbey of Saint Lawrence in Liège and is commonly known as the "Stas Farm." In addition to its striking presence in the heart of the village of Neerhespen, the farm is a fine example of typical Hesbaye architecture. The complex consists of a symmetrical two-story farmhouse, an impressive longitudinal barn, stable wings, and a characteristic gatehouse.
The impressive whitewashed brick façades rest on a tarred plinth and are topped with beautiful gabled roofs covered in red and black tiles. The house has five bays, with finely crafted blue stone door and window frames. Inside, the building still exudes the atmosphere of bygone days. Particularly remarkable are the original ceiling structures (and their equally remarkable names): the main and secondary beams, oak roof trusses, and – not to be forgotten – the unique vaulted "bohemian-style" potato cellar. The farm also features a walled vegetable garden with an authentic bread oven and an adjacent pasture.
The Miss Miyagi sister organization explored the redevelopment potential of the Saint Lawrence Abbey Farm. The building could accommodate various functions: a co-housing project, an event venue focused on day experiences, or a care project including a therapeutic farm and a social workshop. It is also entirely possible to continue using the house and stables as they are, while demolishing the old pigsty to replace it, for example, with a riding arena.
Its central location in the village, generous proportions, and historic character make this property a unique opportunity for anyone looking for an extraordinary project with real heritage value.
