A modern apartment in the heart of Mechelen
Mechelen is a village in the hilly Heuvelland, where the streets are quiet and the surrounding countryside is beautiful. This apartment on Heerenhofweg 22A sits right in the middle of it, with the village centre just around the corner. Built in 2012, it is a modern home with an energy label A, which is an efficient label. The asking price was €450,000. For context, there were at the time apartments in Gulpen-Wittem listed in the wider municipality. This home has not been online since 9 November 2026.
Inside the apartment
The apartment has four rooms, including two bedrooms and one bathroom. The living area was 97 m² according to the agent, while the BAG registration listed it as 98 m². The agent did not mention a garden, balcony or garage, so the outdoor space was limited to what the building offered. The home was built in 2012, so it is relatively new, and the energy label A reflects that era of construction.
