Buitengebied Baarle-Nassau, Baarle-Nassau
NeighbourhoodThis detached house on Schaluinen sits in the rural Buitengebied of Baarle-Nassau, surrounded by fields and peace. With 283 m² of living space on a generous 3900 m² plot, it offers plenty of room for a family. The home was built in 1972 and has an energy label C. At €942,500, it is the most expensive of the 45 homes currently for sale in the neighbourhood, with a price 233% above the local average of €283,089, so it is on the high side compared to other detached houses in Baarle-Nassau.
The Buitengebied is a thinly populated rural area with just 124 addresses per km², making it one of the least urbanised parts of the country. Most homes are owner-occupied (79%) and the majority were built between 1970 and 1990. The population is older, with a third aged 65 or over. One resident describes it as 'incredibly peaceful, wonderful', living in a former monastery converted into apartments: 'Around the monastery lies a spacious park with large trees and lawns where I can relax wonderfully.' They add that by bike they reach the cosy centre of Baarle-Nassau in 10 minutes. This is based on a single review, so it gives a personal impression of the Buitengebied Baarle-Nassau neighbourhood.
For daily shopping, the nearest supermarkets are Albert Heijn (about a ten-minute walk), Aldi and Jumbo, all within a couple of streets away. Primary school BS de Uilenpoort is a ten-minute walk, and secondary school De la Salle is also within walking distance. The area is quiet, so you'll likely drive for most errands. The nearest train station is 19.7 km away, so a car is essential. The municipality of Baarle-Nassau covers both Dutch and Belgian territory, giving the area a unique character.
At the time of writing, the home is listed through several channels, including Buitenstate Makelaardij and Schalk Makelaardij.

Living here is incredibly peaceful, wonderful. I live in a former monastery (Woonpark de Grens), converted into rental apartments. Around the monastery lies a spacious park with large trees and lawns where I can relax wonderfully. The park is sheltered, which I like, no hustle and bustle around me. By bike, I'm in the cosy centre of Baarle-Nassau in 10 minutes. And by car, I'm in Turnhout in 10 minutes, ideal.

About Schaluinen 1A, Baarle-Nassau
The asking price of €942,500 is 233% above the neighbourhood average of €283,089 and is the highest of the 45 homes currently for sale in Buitengebied Baarle-Nassau. However, this home is much larger than average (283 m² vs 103 m²) and sits on a 3900 m² plot, which explains the premium. Whether it is fair depends on how you value the space and rural setting.
The home has energy label C, which is average for the neighbourhood, 40% of homes here also have label C. Label C means the home is reasonably efficient, but not as economical as A or B labels. You can expect moderate energy costs, but no specific amounts are given in the listing.
The plot measures 3900 m², which is very spacious for a detached house. The listing does not specify how the land is used, whether it is garden, woodland or pasture, so you would need to see it in person. The size offers plenty of possibilities for outdoor living, gardening or even keeping animals, subject to local regulations.
Buitengebied Baarle-Nassau is a quiet rural area with mostly owner-occupied homes. About 31% of households have children, and there are primary and secondary schools within walking distance. The resident review mentions peace and nature, but also that the centre is a 10-minute bike ride away. It is a car-dependent area, so families would need a vehicle for most activities.
The nearest supermarkets, Albert Heijn, Aldi and Jumbo, are all about 1.5 to 1.7 km away, a 15-20 minute walk or a short bike ride. A GP is 3.4 km away, and restaurants are 2.2 km. For more extensive shopping or services, you would likely drive to Baarle-Nassau centre or Turnhout in Belgium.
The nearest train station is 19.7 km away, so public transport is limited. The area has a low address density (124 per km²), meaning bus services are probably infrequent. A car is essential for commuting or getting around.
The asking price per m² is about €3,331 (€942,500 / 283 m²), which is higher than the neighbourhood average of €2,884 per m². This reflects the large plot and the fact that it is the most expensive home in the area. However, the home is also much larger than average, so the price per m² is not directly comparable to smaller homes.
The listing does not provide details about the condition of the home. It was built in 1972 and has energy label C, which suggests it has some insulation but may need updates. A viewing would be necessary to assess the state of the roof, windows, heating system and interior.
