Buying a house in Sliedrecht: the housing market in 2026
Sliedrecht lies on the Merwede in the Drechtsteden, a region in South Holland that has become increasingly popular in recent years among buyers who find the Randstad too expensive but are looking for good connections. With over 26,000 residents, Sliedrecht is a compact municipality where you can be at the water within five minutes from the centre. The largest employers are in the dredging industry (think Van Oord and Boskalis), but many residents also work in Dordrecht or Rotterdam, which is easily accessible via the A15 and the train station. Of the more than 11,200 homes in Sliedrecht, 58% are owner-occupied and 42% are rental properties. The average WOZ value is €303,000, but actual transaction prices are higher: in the past year, 205 homes were sold for an average of €444,002, with a range from €165,000 to €1,875,000. This indicates that both affordable apartments and spacious villas on the Merwede change hands. Supply is limited; homes sell relatively quickly.

Buurtje.nl aggregates homes from more than 1,500 sources and adds neighbourhood scores and resident reviews, so you can assess not just the home but also the neighbourhood.

Quiet, only the Torbeckelaan is sometimes a racetrack
Auto-translated to English by AIWhere we live it's great. Only pity about the buses here on Thorbekelaan, not nice noise and a lot of dirt. Otherwise it's still quite quiet here.
Auto-translated to English by AINice neighbourhood with lovely people, but too little mutual contact. Now that activities are being organised (front garden flea market, neighbourhood BBQ, etc.), the sense of community is increasing and more and better contacts are emerging. The number of participants in activities is growing.
Auto-translated to English by AIIt's very pleasant to live here, there is plenty of play space for children of all ages. Accessibility of the neighbourhood is very good, also for service providers. I feel at home and you can turn to many people if something is wrong. Unconsciously, we all look out for each other and keep an eye on whether any strange things happen.
Auto-translated to English by AII'm very happy with my neighbourhood, but I miss play facilities even though they exist. What I mean is that they are outdated, not suitable for small children, and there is too little variety. If every playground only has a slide, it becomes less challenging for a child. When my son (now 2) discovered that playing outside is great fun, we went out. But there was absolutely nothing for him to do in my neighbourhood.
