Bloemendaal and corner houses: what you'll find here
Bloemendaal is not a municipality where you can quickly pick up a corner house. Supply is limited, the housing stock is largely owner-occupied, and the municipality attracts buyers who know what they are looking for. Corner houses here are rarely on the market for long. They are often detached or semi-detached houses with an additional side plot, sometimes part of a small-scale 1930s or post-war row in Overveen or Vogelenzang. For current numbers and the current supply: see the overview at the top of this page.
The type of buyer looking here is usually well-informed and financially strong. Corner houses in Bloemendaal are not starter homes. They are in the higher segment, where the location (dune edge, wooded area) and the extra outdoor space on the side partly determine the price. View all homes for sale in Bloemendaal for a complete picture of the available supply.
What you need to know before bidding on a corner house here
- Easements on the side strip. Corner houses border public areas or a path. Check with the notary whether there are easements on the side plot, for example a right of way for neighbours or the municipality.
- Side facade and maintenance. An extra facade means extra maintenance. Always request a structural survey, specifically focused on the condition of the side facade, roof edge and any extensions.
- Zoning plan and extension possibilities. Bloemendaal has strict aesthetic requirements. If you want to build on the side plot or add a conservatory, check with the municipality in advance what is permit-free and what is not.
- Response speed. In this market, corner houses sell quickly. Ensure your financing is arranged in advance (mortgage offer or financing statement) so you can act immediately.
- Set up a search in the Buurtje.nl app. The app is free and sends push notifications as soon as a new corner house becomes available in Bloemendaal. Download it via the App Store or Google Play.
- Pay attention to the WOZ value of the corner position. Corner houses are sometimes assessed higher than mid-terrace houses on the same street, due to the larger plot area. This affects municipal taxes and OZB.
- Ask about the HOA situation for stacked corner houses. Not every corner house is ground-based. For apartments in a corner position, the usual HOA obligations apply. Check the reserves and the multi-year maintenance plan.
Price level: what drives the value of a corner house in Bloemendaal
Corner houses in Bloemendaal are in the higher segment of the Dutch housing market. This has several causes. The municipality has little new construction, the location near the dunes and Zuid-Kennemerland National Park is sought after, and the housing density is low. Corner houses add an extra factor: the side plot and extra light make them more attractive than comparable mid-terrace houses on the same street.
Factors that further push the price up or down:
- State of maintenance of the side facade and roof.
- Presence of a garage or carport on the side plot.
- Location relative to main roads (corner houses on busy intersections are less desirable).
- Year of construction and energy label.
- Whether the side plot is buildable or carries an easement.

Nothing found? Also look at Zaanstad
The supply of corner houses in Bloemendaal is limited. If you are considering a larger search area, you can look to surrounding municipalities. Corner houses in Zaanstad are generally in a lower price segment, with a different type of housing (many post-war expansion neighbourhoods). This makes the municipality interesting for buyers who want more volume for the same budget. Keep in mind that the housing market dynamics and neighbourhood characteristics there are significantly different from Bloemendaal.
Considering renting as an intermediate step? Then view the supply of corner houses for rent in Bloemendaal, although that supply is even tighter than the owner-occupied market.

Enjoying, just fantastic to be able to live here.
Auto-translated to English by AIOverveen is a good and pleasant neighbourhood to grow up in. The traffic situation is safe enough for children to walk to their primary school on their own without any problems. There are plenty of primary and secondary schools in the area and they are also easily accessible. Even if you don't study in Overveen, there are enough facilities to easily take you to major transport hubs. Very well located. Close to the beach and Haarlem. So a pleasant environment.

Auto-translated to English by AIOur neighbourhood is not very good with each other. Sometimes fun things are organised but you have to be on good terms with certain people to actually have a good time there. Unless you go with your own friends.
