Baarn as a corner house market: what you'll find here
Baarn is not your average Gooi commuter town. The combination of villa-style housing, 1930s terraced houses and post-war expansion neighbourhoods creates a varied offering. Corner houses fit well into this streetscape: the wide plots and the space between buildings mean that corner positions here more often than elsewhere actually yield extra land, not just a side wall.
The supply of corner houses in Baarn is predominantly in the upper mid-range segment. This attracts buyers who consciously choose more light, their own driveway or a larger garden, and who are willing to pay extra for it. Current numbers and average asking prices can be found in the overview at the top of this page.
The market is tight. Corner houses are by definition scarce (every street has only two) and in Baarn a corner house rarely stays on the market long. Anyone serious about buying needs to be able to act quickly.

Points to watch out for with a corner house
- Side wall and insulation. A corner house has two external walls. Check the insulation values carefully. Poorly insulated side walls lead to higher heating costs and can cause disputes over cost distribution in an HOA complex.
- Property boundary and easements. The extra land along the side is not always free to use. Request the cadastral extract and check whether there is a right of way or a neighbour's path attached to it. This occurs in Baarn with older plots bordering paths towards the Baarnse Bos.
- Planning permission for extensions. A side extension or garage on the corner position is attractive, but requires a permit once the building envelope is exceeded. Check the zoning plan via the Environmental Desk before making plans.
- Parking pressure on the corner. Corner plots often border a junction or side street. Find out if there is a parking ban directly next to your future driveway, and whether the municipality has plans for street redesign.
- Financing and valuation. Banks sometimes value corner houses more conservatively if the extra land has no formal residential designation. Have the valuer explicitly mention this in the report.
- React quickly and use push notifications. Corner houses in Baarn are scarce. Install the free Buurtje.nl app (App Store) or Buurtje.nl app (Google Play) on your phone. The app is free and sends a push notification as soon as a new corner house appears that matches your search criteria.
- Ask about the HOA contribution for apartments on corner positions. In multi-storey buildings, the corner unit sometimes bears a larger share of the facade maintenance costs. Read the deed of division carefully.
What determines the price of a corner house in Baarn?
Corner houses in Baarn structurally cost more than mid-terrace houses of comparable size. This has a number of concrete causes:
- Extra land along the side wall (garden, driveway or storage).
- More windows and daylight, creating through-light effects that buyers appreciate.
- Higher energy bills as a counterbalance (two external walls, more heat loss with poor insulation).
- Location in the neighbourhood: a corner house on a quiet residential street performs better than a corner house on a through road with traffic noise.
- Condition of the side wall and any existing extension.

Neighbourhoods in Baarn worth considering
Not every neighbourhood in Baarn has the same character or the same density of corner houses. Below is a brief sketch.
- Baarn-Noord, Eemdal en Eemland (resident score 8.6/10). This is the most highly rated residential area in Baarn. Quiet streets, lots of greenery, proximity to the Eem. Corner houses here are popular with families seeking space away from the bustle of the centre. Limited supply, high demand.
- Wijk 00 Baarn (resident score 7.4/10). The central part of the municipality, with a mix of building types. Corner houses in this area are more often located on wider streets with some traffic pressure. Advantage: shorter distance to amenities and the station.
- Buitengebied (resident score 5.5/10). Rural homes, separate from the village centre. Corner houses here are less common in the classic sense. Those looking here are more often considering detached or semi-detached. The low resident score reflects the lack of amenities, not the quality of the homes.
Also consider Utrecht?
If you can't find something quickly enough in Baarn, you'll logically look at the region. Utrecht has a wider range and more turnover. The price level is different, but the choice is greater. View the current supply of corner houses in Utrecht as a supplement to your search. Renting is also an option as a bridging solution: see corner houses for rent in Baarn for what's available.
Buying a corner house in Baarn requires patience and speed at the same time. Patience because the supply is limited. Speed because buying a corner house here rarely gives you weeks to think it over. Make sure your financing is in order and your search criteria are set up properly before the right house appears.
Frequently asked questions
What does a corner house in Baarn cost?
Corner houses in Baarn predominantly fall into the upper middle segment. Exact prices fluctuate quickly due to the tight market. Current asking prices can be found in the overview at the top of this page. Corner houses are structurally more expensive than terraced houses due to the extra land, additional daylight, and the rarity of the type.
How can I quickly find a new corner house in Baarn?
Set up a search alert via the free Buurtje.nl app. The app sends a push notification as soon as a corner house in Baarn becomes available that meets your criteria. You can download it for free from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). This way you won't miss any new listings.
What legal aspects should I consider for a corner house?
Always request the cadastral extract. Check whether there is an easement or right of way on the plot, especially along the side. In Baarn, this occurs for plots bordering old paths or forest paths. Also check the deed of division if it concerns an apartment in a corner position: the cost distribution for facade maintenance can be unfavourable for the corner unit.
Which neighbourhood in Baarn has the best living environment for a corner house?
Baarn-Noord, Eemdal and Eemland scores highest with a resident rating of 8.6/10. Residents appreciate the tranquillity, greenery and proximity to the Eem. The central part of Baarn (Wijk 00, score 7.4/10) offers more proximity to amenities. The rural area (score 5.5/10) is rural but has few amenities nearby.
Is parking a problem with a corner house in Baarn?
That depends heavily on the location. Corner plots often border an intersection or side street, where municipalities sometimes impose a parking ban directly next to the driveway. Ask the seller about any parking restrictions and check whether the municipality has plans for redevelopment of the immediate surroundings. A private driveway or garage on the corner plot resolves this in most cases.
Better stay away, then you don't have to witness or experience the dull misery. Nobody misses anything!
Auto-translated to English by AIGreetings from outside. Sometimes have a chat about fireworks, rubbish, dreary weather, cleaned up. Beautiful houses and complex. Lots of nature. I'm busy sowing flower beds for even more wild flowers. It's not in the centre but for me it's fine by bike. I feel safe because I live alone on a gallery, you can't just walk in. There are no busy roads in the immediate vicinity. People know me (in my previous home I never spoke to or greeted anyone). There's no litter. It's a nice house, fairly new, nice interesting architecture. Facilities are easily accessible by bike, or for example with the elderly bus. I can still take the little dog out at night/dark if necessary. It's just that contact doesn't go much further than greetings and a short chat. I've never had to leave my keys inside, except once when I could call the neighbour. My friend had a spare. There's a lot of green... a pond, planting with reeds. Trees. Accessibility? When I cycle, I'm not directly on a busy road. It's really a residential area, meaning shops are not within walking distance. More like cycling distance. I've never heard of any break-ins or anything. People check on me... if I'm okay etc. I also get stuff from neighbours that I can either use or pass on to a give-away shop. Win-win. The communal hall is cleaned every week. When it snowed, someone cleared it. I maintain the flower beds, sow seeds etc. But someone else pruned the ivy from the flower bed by the front door, on their own voluntary initiative. Across the street there are occasional parties with young people, but I don't mind that / it's fun. Go for it. Different cultures live here but no one bites each other. In the hall, people put things they no longer want. You can take them. Recently someone got married, with a flower arch... I spontaneously took a photo. Also of a couple living there. Spontaneous. Nice. I can leave my bike outside. That's all I know. I only have one reason to leave: if I might start living together again.
Auto-translated to English by AIApart from the occasional unsafety in this little village, I couldn't have wished for a better place on earth to live. Villages are always so cosy, and this one is no exception. Everything is accessible and everyone is well provided for. Baarn is beautiful!
Auto-translated to English by AINot much happens in the neighbourhood, but it's always cosy. There's a supermarket and some small snack bars and bakeries. Everyone looks out for each other, without too many arguments or fights. There's police occasionally, it's clean. People can easily reach a school and it's just cosy :)

Community centre and associations also present. Supermarket within walking distance. Also a nice park that is closed at night. And yes also a cemetery and a funeral home in the neighbourhood. Medical centre also there with pharmacy, physio and dentist and GPs. Accessible for everyone. From young to old lives here. People know each other, or not, but that is usually what the person wants themselves. Parking is a bit of an issue, but there is usually a spot. Most houses were built just after the war. Grew quickly until 1980. After that time buildings were replaced or renovated. 3 emergency homes for refugees since this year. This neighbourhood is absolutely not boring or quiet... 24 hours there is movement... I wouldn't want to leave here soon. Public transport unfortunately gone, but maybe that will come back a bit. All in all you can be born here and die. Only downside is that there are hardly any things for young people aged 14 to 21. They then look further than the neighbourhood. But complain about this neighbourhood no I cannot do that. A few more bins and a better mentality in cleaning up could sometimes use a lesson here, but that is more for the municipality.... Also the preservation and protection of greenery could be better from the municipality.
