End-of-terrace houses for sale in Meierijstad

Meierijstad: a municipality of villages, and corner houses that fit in

Meierijstad is not a city with a single centre but a municipality consisting of several villages: Veghel, Schijndel, Sint-Oedenrode, Erp and smaller hamlets. This makes searching for a corner house here different from in a regular city. You don't just choose a house, you also choose a village with its own character, its own amenities and its own housing market. The supply of corner houses is spread across these villages, and that requires a targeted approach.

What you need to know about the market for corner houses here

Corner houses are popular in Meierijstad among families and home-movers. They offer more outdoor space than a mid-terrace house, are often on a larger plot and provide more light from the side. That makes them attractive, but also scarcer. In a municipality like Meierijstad, with a relatively balanced sales and rental market, the supply of corner houses is limited and competition is real.

Corner houses fall into the upper mid-range segment. You pay a premium compared to similar mid-terrace houses, especially if the side strip is large or if the house is on a quiet street. For current price indications: see the overview at the top of this page.

The type is suitable for buyers who prioritise space over location and who are willing to wait a bit longer for the right property. Want to stay flexible? Also check the options for renting corner houses in Meierijstad as a temporary alternative.

Practical tips for buying a corner house in Meierijstad

• Check the property boundary of the side strip. With corner houses, the side strip is sometimes not fully owned by the seller. Request the cadastral extract and compare it with the actual situation. Discrepancies are more common than you think.
• Pay attention to the zoning plan for the side. Many buyers want an extension or shed on the side facade. Whether that is allowed depends on the zoning plan and the distance to the property boundary. Check this before making an offer, not after.
• Ask about the insulation of the side wall. An extra wall means extra heat loss if it is not well insulated. In older corner houses, this is a common point of attention during a structural survey.
• Take into account a higher HOA contribution in apartment complexes. Corner houses in a block with an HOA sometimes pay a higher contribution due to their larger facade surface area. Ask the seller about this.
• Respond quickly, but not hastily. Corner houses in Meierijstad sell quickly. Make sure your financing has been pre-calculated so you can make a serious offer immediately without a financing contingency as a hurdle.
• 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 that meets your criteria comes on the market. This way you won't miss any listings. Download it from the App Store or Google Play.
• Compare the WOZ value with the asking price. With corner houses, the WOZ value can lag behind the market price due to the premium for plot size. Use this as a reference point in negotiations, not as an absolute measure.
