A typical little Zeeland farmhouse from the end of the 18th century, situated on the peninsula Walcheren, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

One can see a hand-driven water pump at the left side of the front wall of this house. This water pump is no longer used for consumption water however, but has remained intact due to the ornamental effect.

A lovely photo of this very well cared for property.
I love the espaliered fruit trees :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

My first thought was the TV show "Home Improvement." Not that the home needs any improvement, but I could envision Wilson W. Wilson, talking to Tim.
A home anyone would be proud to live in SEA.
Great shot.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

I looked up Walcheren, Zeeland, The Netherlands on Google Earth, and the entire peninsula appears to be intensively cultivated. So I'm glad this relic remains in such a busy and fragmented landscape. The house is clearly a labor of love and it's wonderful to see these places here and there, kept pristine not just for their connection to the land, but because they're still nice places to live. Your portrait of it is bold and eye-catching too.
