Description
This house for sale in Hoogstraten has seven bedrooms, a private pool and 33 solar panels with a 40 kWh battery on a 954 m² plot in Meerle. It stands on a quiet dead-end street among other detached homes, with forest close by. Built in 1986 and renovated in 1997, it is a large family house in good condition.
The House: 304 m² of Family Space
You step into a tall, open hallway with a spiral staircase, and the house opens up from there. The living room is open-plan, with big windows facing the garden and a Flam wood-burning stove glazed on three sides. A dining area sits next to it. The kitchen is separate but open, with a central cooking island, built-in appliances and a small dining nook for everyday breakfasts. Sliding doors lead from the living area straight onto the covered terrace.
Three bedrooms are on the ground floor, which gives you options: guest rooms, a home office, a playroom, or a bedroom for a relative who prefers to avoid stairs. This level also has a bathroom with a bathtub and double washbasin, a separate toilet, a laundry room with washing machine connections and a storage room with built-in cabinets.
Upstairs there is a generous landing and four more bedrooms. The master suite has a walk-in closet and air conditioning, and another bedroom looks out over the garden. The upstairs bathroom has a jacuzzi bathtub, a closed shower, a toilet and a double washbasin. Dormer windows bring extra light to this floor. A small utility room holds the heating system and an additional electric boiler, and it gives access to the attic for storage.
Garden, Pool and Covered Terrace
The plot is 954 m². There is a large front garden and a private rear garden with a swimming pool and a garden shed. The covered terrace looks over the whole garden and pool area, so it works for dinners outside even when the weather is mixed. A private driveway provides on-site parking.
The street is a dead end with local traffic only, and the neighbours are all in detached houses. That is a real plus when children are cycling or you want to swim without being overlooked.
Solar Power and Running Costs
The energy setup is what sets this home apart from most family houses in the area. It has 33 solar panels of 400 Wp each, connected to an off-grid system with a 40 kWh battery bank. According to the seller, the house can run almost entirely on solar energy for roughly nine months of the year, depending on the weather.
The rest of the system backs this up: full thermal insulation, thermopane glazing and a high-efficiency gas combi boiler. Underfloor heating covers both floors, and air conditioning units can heat as well as cool. The energy label is C. Ask for recent consumption figures when you view, so you can see how the numbers look over a full year.
Living in Hoogstraten and Meerle
Meerle is a village in the municipality of Hoogstraten, close to the Dutch border in the north of Antwerp province. The setting is rural Kempen: forest at the edge of the neighbourhood, flat roads and local shops and schools in Meerle itself. The town of Hoogstraten, known for its Sint-Katharinakerk and its strawberries, is a short drive away for larger errands.
Breda in the Netherlands is about half an hour away by car, and Antwerp is roughly 45 minutes to an hour, depending on traffic. Both Brussels Airport and Eindhoven Airport are roughly an hour or a little more by road. That makes the house practical for a family that splits time between Belgium and abroad, or for anyone looking for a second home in Belgium that is still within reach of a major city.

Frequently Asked Questions
How self-sufficient is the house on solar power?
The seller reports that it can run almost entirely on solar energy for about nine months a year, depending on weather. The system combines 33 panels with a 40 kWh battery, and it is worth reviewing the yearly figures during a viewing.
