An Old Smokehouse Transformed Into a Modern Industrial Home

In a charming street in an old village in the Netherlands, you can find this beautiful home with modern industrial interiors that showcase the building’s history. In 2016, the former smokehouse underwent a remarkable transformation, evolving from a raw studio with a gallery into a luxurious residential loft spanning an impressive 268 m².

The space now features a charming eat-in kitchen, a welcoming living area, three bedrooms with an en-suite bathroom, and a well-appointed office. The outdoor spaces at the front and side are intimate, cozy, and surrounded by greenery. While the renovation has revitalized the building, it has retained its original character; the industrial, lived-in finish remains true to the smokehouse’s heritage.

The large space on the ground floor is divided by a long industrial glass wall, that lets through light and creates an open feeling while also creating two clear rooms.

This space used to be the director’s office, and the current owners have restored it to its former function. The room features its original yellow tiles.
