Occo Reintiesheerd is of great scenic and heritage value. The large historic ‘head-neck-body’ farmhouse is situated on a high piece of former farmland.

At Occo Reintiesheerd, the residential function is being accommodated in the farm’s side barn. In this way, Het Groninger Landschap is buying time so that, in a few years’ time, it can reassess the damaged front building.
