End-of-terrace houses for sale in Hellendoorn
End-of-terrace houses in Hellendoorn are scarce and sell quickly. On this page you will find practical information to search effectively and act fast.
Hellendoorn is not the Randstad, but the market behaves as if it is
Hellendoorn lies in the Twente countryside, between the Sallandse Heuvelrug and Nijverdal. It is a municipality where owner-occupied homes are the norm, the housing market is tight, and corner houses sell quickly. Anyone wanting to buy a corner house in Hellendoorn will notice that supply is limited and competition is real. Most supply is in the mid-range: terraced houses with an extra side facade, often from the 1970s to 1990s, sometimes newer in the expansion neighbourhoods around Nijverdal.
Corner houses here attract buyers looking for space: a side garden, an extra driveway, or simply more light. This makes them popular with families and movers. See the current supply and associated figures at the top of this page.
More about the municipality, neighbourhood data and resident reviews can be found on the reviews and neighbourhood data of Hellendoorn page.
What you need to know before bidding on a corner house
- Foundation and side facade. A corner house has more external wall than a mid-terrace house. Have a structural survey carried out with specific attention to the side facade and the foundation at the corner position. Moisture ingress via the side facade is a common issue.
- Boundary and fences. The side boundary of a corner house often borders a pavement, path or neighbourhood path. Check the cadastre for the exact boundary location. Fences, hedges or extensions that just cross the boundary can cause legal trouble.
- Zoning plan and extension. Many buyers choose a corner house precisely for the expansion possibilities. Check the zoning plan of the municipality of Hellendoorn: not every side may be built on, especially if the house borders a public road.
- Buildings insurance. A larger external surface area means a higher rebuild value. Recalculate this upon purchase, because a standard estimate will underinsure you in case of damage.
- Speed of response is crucial. Corner houses in Hellendoorn rarely stay on the market for long. Set up a search and use the free Buurtje.nl app for push notifications as soon as new supply appears. The app is free to download from the App Store and Google Play.
- Parking on own land. A driveway or garage is more common with corner houses than with mid-terrace houses. Check whether the driveway is formally permitted and whether an exit permit has been issued by the municipality.
- Viewing on a weekday. Schedule a second viewing on a weekday morning. Then you will see the traffic, noise from the side street and the light on the side facade in realistic conditions.
Price level: what determines the value of a corner house in Hellendoorn
Corner houses in Hellendoorn generally fall into the mid-range. They are structurally slightly higher in price than comparable mid-terrace houses on the same street, due to the larger plot and extra outdoor space. Current asking prices and market movements can be seen in the overview at the top of this page.
Factors that drive up the price of a corner house:
- Presence of a driveway or garage
- Side door with direct access to the back garden
- Location on a quiet side street rather than a through road
- Recent renovation of the side facade or roof
- Favourable energy label
Banks are stricter about minimum floor area for financing with smaller homes (generally under 40m² is considered critical), but this rarely plays a role with corner houses in Hellendoorn. However, a valuation by an experienced local valuer is recommended, because comparable transactions in smaller municipalities are scarcer.

nice fun neighbourhood where people help each other in good and bad times. Only there is little in the area like supermarket etc, no public transport.
Auto-translated to English by AIResidents of Marle are proud of their neighbourhood. They put their shoulders to the wheel to strengthen the community together. A thorn in the side is the shortage of affordable homes for starters and lifetime homes. Housing construction, public transport and more public lighting would help the neighbourhood to keep young people on board. This has a positive effect on the school and the extensive club life that Marle has. What a pity is that the differences from the land consolidation are still clearly visible, part of Marle still has old ash trees and winding roads and the other part is more rigid and clearly has fewer ash trees and green verges.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe street is restless and busy, but otherwise it's a nice, tidy neighbourhood. I know many people and if something is up, we can always ask or inform each other without constantly knocking on doors. However, little is organised.
