Homes for sale in Noord-Beveland

Buying a home in Noord-Beveland: the housing market in 2026

Noord-Beveland is the island in Zeeland where you can smell the Oosterschelde when you open your front door in the morning. With fewer than 8,000 residents spread across villages such as Kamperland, Wissenkerke and Kortgene, it is one of the least densely populated municipalities in the Netherlands. This attracts a specific type of buyer: people who consciously choose space, quiet and outdoor living. Many buyers come from the Randstad or from surrounding Zeeland municipalities and are looking for a permanent home or a second home near the Veerse Meer and the North Sea.

The housing market on Noord-Beveland is notably owner-occupied: 73% of the more than 4,700 homes are owner-occupied, while only 24% are rental. The average WOZ value is €302,000, but actual selling prices are higher. In the past twelve months, 168 homes were sold at an average purchase price of €454,316, with a range from €150,000 to as much as €2,250,000 for the most expensive properties. The latter segment mainly consists of detached homes on the water. At the top of this page you will find the current supply and the most recent market figures. On Buurtje.nl you can view the neighbourhood scores and resident reviews for each property, so you get to know not only the house but also the surroundings well.

The best neighbourhoods to buy a home in Noord-Beveland

Noord-Beveland has six recognisable cores, each with its own character. From lively Kamperland with its tourist appeal to quiet Kats on the Oosterschelde: the differences are greater than you would expect on such a compact island. Below are the most important neighbourhoods for buyers.

Kamperland, the tourist heart of the island

Kamperland is the largest core and attracts many buyers who appreciate the proximity of holiday park De Banjaard and the beach. You will find a supermarket, primary school and catering establishments, which for Noord-Beveland means a lot of amenities together. The housing supply is diverse: from 1960s terraced houses to newer detached homes. Residents give Kamperland a solid pass on Buurtje.nl for the living environment, although it is sometimes noted that it can get busy in high season due to tourists. Prices here are slightly above the municipal average, partly due to the proximity to the beach. View the housing supply in Kamperland for the current situation.

Kortgene, village living on the Veerse Meer

Kortgene is located directly on the Veerse Meer and has a cosy village centre with a small harbour. It is popular with movers and over-55s who enjoy water sports. "We have lived here for ten years and the view over the lake remains special every day," writes a resident on Buurtje.nl. The neighbourhood score of Kortgene is high: residents particularly appreciate the peace and green spaces. Homes on the waterfront are more expensive, but in the village centre you will also find affordable options. View what is for sale in Kortgene.

Wissenkerke, the administrative centre

In Wissenkerke you will find the town hall, a GP practice and several shops. It is the most 'complete' core in terms of daily amenities and therefore popular with families. The housing stock mainly consists of single-family homes from the 1970s and 1980s. Prices here are generally slightly lower than in Kamperland or Kortgene, making it interesting for first-time buyers looking for a home on the island. Residents score Wissenkerke well on safety and child-friendliness. Discover the available homes in Wissenkerke.

Colijnsplaat, authentic fishing village

Colijnsplaat on the north side of the island has an active fishing harbour and its own character, separate from the tourist bustle in the south. Homes here are relatively affordable and you will find characteristic village houses. Residents appreciate the community spirit and the direct location on the Oosterschelde. The level of amenities is limited: for larger shopping trips you drive to Wissenkerke or to Goes on Zuid-Beveland. View the supply in Colijnsplaat.

In addition to these cores, Geersdijk and Kats are also worth exploring. Geersdijk is centrally located on the island and offers quiet living at lower prices. Kats is the smallest village, located on the Oosterschelde, and appeals to buyers seeking maximum peace.

What to look out for when buying a home in Noord-Beveland?

Firstly: look carefully at the difference between the cores. The price per square metre can vary significantly between Kamperland and Colijnsplaat, while the distance as the crow flies is only a few kilometres. Visit the villages at different times, also outside the tourist season, to get a realistic picture.

Secondly: take into account limited amenities. Noord-Beveland has no secondary school, no hospital and no train station. For all that you rely on Goes, accessible via the Zandkreekdam. The travel time is fifteen to twenty minutes, but in bad weather or in summer the road can be busier. Information about municipal plans and amenities can be found on the website of the municipality of Noord-Beveland.

Thirdly: the supply is limited and homes can be gone quickly. With 168 sales in the past year and a relatively small supply, speed is sometimes required. Compare neighbourhoods based on neighbourhood data on Buurtje.nl before you go viewing, so you can search purposefully. Also consider a rental home in Noord-Beveland as a temporary alternative while you explore the market.
