End-of-terrace houses for sale in Loon op Zand

Loon op Zand is not a municipality where you can sit back as a buyer. Supply is limited, demand exists, and corner houses change hands quickly. If you want to buy a corner house in this part of North Brabant, it is wise to prepare well, because it concerns a specific type in a market with little room for hesitation.

What makes the supply of corner houses in Loon op Zand special?

Loon op Zand is a small municipality with three centres: Loon op Zand itself, Kaatsheuvel and De Moer. The share of owner-occupied homes is healthy, but the total supply at any given time is limited. Corner houses are in the upper middle segment of the local market. This means you don't have much choice, but also that the quality of the supply is generally reasonable. Families and movers are the most common buyers. First-time buyers who deliberately choose a corner house must take into account a higher threshold than with a terraced house.

Buying a corner house in Loon op Zand: practical tips

• Check the property boundaries before making an offer. Corner houses border two public sides. That sounds nice, but it also means that the municipality or an HOA sometimes has rights to the side strip. Request the cadastral map and check if there is an easement on it.
• Pay attention to the side wall. With corner houses, the side wall is often not insulated or is in worse condition than the front wall. Always request a structural survey, even if the house looks good.
• Ask about the boundary. Who is responsible for the fence or hedge on the side? This is often less clear with corner houses than with terraced houses. Record it in the purchase agreement.
• Parking on own land. Many corner houses in Loon op Zand have space for a driveway or garage on the side. Check whether this is permitted and whether the driveway meets municipal requirements.
• Respond quickly. Corner houses in Loon op Zand are rarely on the market for long. Make sure your financing is already in place (mortgage offer or proof of financial advice) so you can bid immediately.
• Set up a search alert via the Buurtje.nl app. The app is free and sends you a push notification as soon as a new corner house becomes available. This way you won't miss any listings. Download from the App Store or Google Play.
• Know what banks do with small corner houses. Banks look strictly at homes under 40m². Corner houses in Loon op Zand are rarely that, but with compact 1970s corner houses, the appraised value can be disappointing. Have this estimated in advance.

Price level and what determines the price

Corner houses in Loon op Zand fall into the upper middle segment of the local market. Specific amounts are in the overview at the top of this page. What influences the price:

• Location within the centre (Kaatsheuvel has more supply than the centre of Loon op Zand itself)
• Presence of a garage or driveway
• Year of construction and condition of the side wall
• Garden on two sides versus a narrow strip
• Energy label (increasingly weighted in appraisals)

Renting a corner house is also an option if buying is not possible now. For that, see the supply of corner houses for rent in Loon op Zand.

Neighbourhoods to watch

Loon op Zand has two neighbourhoods with resident ratings available. More atmosphere info and reviews can be found on the municipality overview page of Loon op Zand.

• Kaatsheuvel-Oost (resident rating 9.0/10). The best-rated neighbourhood in the municipality. Quiet, green, predominantly family homes. Corner houses here are sought after and rarely become available.
• Kaatsheuvel-West (resident rating 7.4/10). More mixed in terms of housing type and age of buildings. Slightly more accessible than Kaatsheuvel-Oost, with more chance of supply. Good for buyers who want a bit more flexibility in their choice.
