Homes for sale in Vredehof Noord, Vlissingen

House prices and market figures Vredehof Noord, Vlissingen

Vredehof Noord is a pronounced owner-occupied neighbourhood: as much as 85% of the housing stock is owner-occupied, compared to only 13% private rental and no social housing. That says something about the character of the neighbourhood: people consciously choose to live there and stay there. The average WOZ value is €315,000, which is well above the district average of the Middengebied (€220,000) and also clearly above the municipal average of Vlissingen (€230,000). Vredehof Noord is thus one of the more expensive neighbourhoods in the city.

Looking at the actual transactions of the past year, 9 homes were sold with an average purchase price of €231,444. Prices ranged from €179,500 to €492,500, indicating that both entry-level homes and larger, more expensive properties come onto the market. With an average living area of 81 m², this works out to a price per square metre of approximately €2,858. That is steep for Vlissingen, but explainable given the higher WOZ values and the owner-occupied character of the neighbourhood. Supply is limited: with 231 homes in total and a low turnover rate, buyers need to be able to act quickly.
