Zuidplas is growing, but the supply of corner houses remains scarce
Zuidplas is one of the fastest-growing municipalities in the Netherlands. New neighbourhoods such as Westergouwe are being completed at a rapid pace, but that does not mean corner houses are readily available. This type of home is rarer than terraced houses: there are by definition fewer of them, and buyers know that. Anyone wanting to buy a corner house in Zuidplas faces a market where acting quickly makes the difference.
The supply consists of a mix of new-build and existing homes. New-build projects sometimes offer corner houses via a lottery or registration, while existing corner houses on the open market are usually snapped up quickly. The type attracts a diverse range of buyers: families who appreciate the extra side wall and larger garden, but also people who consciously choose more privacy and their own driveway.

What to look out for with a corner house in Zuidplas
- Boundary and fence: With a corner house, your plot borders public space or multiple neighbours. Check the purchase agreement and land registry for the exact boundary. Council land that looks neat is not automatically yours.
- Side wall and insulation: An extra external wall means more wall surface that can let in cold. For an existing home, always have a structural survey carried out with specific attention to the side wall.
- Parking on your own land: Corner houses in Zuidplas sometimes have space for a driveway, but this is not a given. Ask the municipality about the permit requirement for a driveway on the pavement.
- HOA obligations for new-build: In new-build neighbourhoods such as Westergouwe, corner houses may be part of an HOA. Check whether a contribution is required for communal outdoor space, even if you effectively occupy a detached position.
- Response time: Corner houses rarely stay online for long. Set up search alerts and respond within 24 hours. Use the free Buurtje.nl app for push notifications as soon as new listings appear: available via the App Store and Google Play, completely free.
- Zoning plan and extension: The side wall offers potential for an extension, but not every municipality allows this without question. Check Zuidplas's zoning plan before making plans.
- Financing for small floor areas: Corner houses are generally more spacious, but for compact corner houses (under 40 m²), banks scrutinise financing more strictly. In Zuidplas, this is rarely an issue, but keep it in mind for smaller urban types.
What determines the price of a corner house in Zuidplas?
Corner houses in Zuidplas fall into the upper mid-range segment. This has several causes. Firstly, the supply is structurally limited. Secondly, the plots are generally larger, which drives up the land value. Thirdly, location plays a major role: a corner house in a new-build neighbourhood with good access to the A12 or A20 is valued differently than a home on a busy corner in an older residential area.
Other factors influencing the price: the condition of the side wall, the presence of a garage or driveway, the energy performance (label A or higher is now the norm for new-build) and whether the home is part of an HOA. Current price indications can be found in the overview at the top of this page.

Not found in Zuidplas? Rotterdam is just around the corner
The supply of corner houses in Zuidplas is limited. If you are flexible on location, Rotterdam is a logical next step. The municipality borders Zuidplas and offers a much larger and more varied supply, from 1930s corner houses to new-build. View the current supply of corner houses in Rotterdam as an alternative.

Frequently asked questions
What does a corner house cost in Zuidplas?
Corner houses in Zuidplas generally fall into the higher mid-range segment. The price depends on the neighbourhood, year of construction, plot size, and the condition of the side facade. Current price indications can be found in the overview at the top of this page.
How can I quickly find a corner house for sale in Zuidplas?
Corner houses sell quickly. Install the free Buurtje.nl app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). The app sends you a push notification as soon as new listings appear, so you can respond immediately.
What legal aspects should I consider with a corner house?
Always check the exact property boundary in the land registry. With corner houses, the plot often borders municipal land, which does not automatically mean that land is yours. Also check whether a Homeowners' Association (VvE) applies, and ask the municipality about permit requirements for any driveway or extension on the side facade.
Which neighbourhoods in Zuidplas are most popular for corner houses?
Nieuwerkerk aan den IJssel district 04 scores 8.2/10 among residents and is popular with families due to its tranquillity and accessibility. Moordrecht district 03 (7.8/10) has a more village-like character and consists more of existing housing. Both neighbourhoods have a solid reputation.
Is there ample parking space for corner houses in Zuidplas?
This varies greatly by neighbourhood and construction period. New-build neighbourhoods like Westergouwe are designed with parking on private property in mind, but a driveway is not always standard. In older centres like Moordrecht, street parking is the norm. Always ask the municipality about permit requirements if you want to create a driveway.
I've been living in Nieuwerkerk for 4 years now. I enjoy walking and buying food at the Reigerhof. What I do notice is that Nieuwerkerk is a place for white people. The white privilege is insane, but as soon as you bring your brown boyfriend to your house, you get stared at a bit strangely as if something shady is going on. Now I am white myself and I do fit in here a bit, but the general inclusivity could use some improvement. Also, the train station is abnormally ugly and the trains always have delays, but hey, that's the fault of the cash-grabbing NS. I would also like to express my appreciation for Hitland. I am very happy with the fact that I have the opportunity to hop on my bike and cycle to a forest for some privacy and nature.
Auto-translated to English by AII have lived here my whole life and really like it. As a child you could play well here and now as a student it's easy to travel from. The neighbours are nice and friendly. Fortunately, mostly native Dutch people live in the neighbourhood.
Auto-translated to English by AIThe neighbourhood is welcoming, open and always there for each other. I feel safe here and we solve problems together!
Auto-translated to English by AIEverything in the neighbourhood is well organised and kept clean. The gardens are usually tidy. Within 5 minutes you are at the shopping centre and the station. Schools are also nearby.
Auto-translated to English by AIVery nice people, very helpful and often throw parties. I think the neighbourhood itself is quite far from the train and metro, namely a 20-minute walk and a 50-minute walk.
Auto-translated to English by AIOur neighbourhood is very cosy, old and new are celebrated together, always hello and good morning and everyone knows each other. There is just no school in this area so you have to cycle a bit, that's why I gave a failing grade. My neighbourhood is very close to the sports fields which is super handy.
