The Dike House lies on a beautiful rural parcel by the Reitdiep water. It is a country house that harmonizes with its surroundings in several ways, and is characterized by various features: it is a house on the old dike, with a barn and a modern living area.

On the public side, the parcel is screened off by a hedge, and the building appears to be no more than a barn with a jerkin head that thus fits in neatly with the agrarian buildings in the environment. This closed front protects the house, guaranteeing privacy.
