Description
Alright, thanks for getting in touch. I’m currently juggling quite a few clients (the property market in this area gets busy, especially among overseas buyers!), so apologies if this is a bit rushed, but let me give you a clear, honest picture of this bungalow at Withuisstraat 34, 3790 Voeren, Belgium.
This is a detached bungalow, so all the living happens on one floor, which always makes life a bit easier, especially for families with young kids, retirees, or anyone who doesn’t want to bother with stairs anymore. The house itself was built back in 1969 but received a significant renovation just about five years ago, so while you’ll notice some touches that reflect its age, most of the main systems and finishes are up to date. You won’t be walking into a fixer-upper, but it’s not that hyper-new construction feel either – more like a settled, well looked-after home that’s ready for your own personal twist if you want.
Let me start by talking about the area, since most of my clients are either expats or coming from overseas and really want to know what’s it like to live here. Voeren is in the eastern part of Belgium, right at the border of the Netherlands, so it’s very international in feeling. In fact, you’re only about a 10-minute drive from Maastricht, which is a major town over the border in the Netherlands, with great shopping, cultural events, universities, and a vibrant expat community. The area around Moelingen, where the property sits, is really beautiful – you get those rolling hills, loads of green countryside, small picturesque villages all scattered around. Lots of people who move here are drawn by the combination of rural peace and easy access to urban life.
The climate is what you’d expect in this part of Europe: summers are usually mild to warm—think 20–25°C—not super hot, but just right for enjoying your garden or the lovely walking and cycling trails everywhere around. Winters don’t tend to get extreme, though you’ll see some frosty mornings. Rain is regular, to be honest, so it’s good the house has a big, covered terrace—you can spend time outside even on drizzly days.
Living in Voeren is a bit of a different pace compared to the big city. People know their neighbours; it’s quite safe for kids to play outside, and you can find fresh local produce at nearby farms. If you fancy a day out, you can travel to Maastricht for international shops, dining, or museums, or stay local and enjoy the natural reserves and historic villages—great for hiking and cycling enthusiasts. Being so close to the border, you also have quick access to the Belgian towns of Liège and Tongeren or even into Germany, which means if you’re working across borders or just enjoy hopping around Europe, this is a very practical spot.
Now, a little about bungalow life, for those new to it: having everything on ground level really changes things. No lugging laundry baskets or groceries up flights of stairs. Wheelchair- and stroller-friendly if you’ve got accessibility concerns, and also easier to heat (or cool) efficiently. There’s a real sense of connection with outdoors too—since every room is just steps from the garden or terrace.
The property itself offers:
- Detached bungalow style
- All living space on the ground floor
- 3 bedrooms
- 1 modern bathroom (walk-in shower)
- Separate guest toilet
- Recently modernized kitchen (induction cooktop, combo oven/microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer)
- Large utility room with washing machine connection
- Attic storage space (via retractable stairs)
- Spacious living room with gas fireplace
- Big windows for garden views and daylight
- Double garage (36 m²) accessible from garden
- Landscaped garden plus covered terrace (with electric sunshade)
- 24 installed solar panels
- Floor and facade insulation, HR++ double glazing
- Gas central heating (new from 2020)
- Living area approx. 117 m², plot 679 m²
One practical word: while the energy costs should be low thanks to all the upgrades—solar panels, insulation, new heating—you might want to check about flood risks in this region. It’s not uncommon, since there’s a lot of rivers and valleys around, but the owners have been upfront and there’s no signs of past problems at this address.
About renovations—since so much was updated only 5 years ago (kitchen, windows, insulation), you won’t have to start tearing things apart right away. Maybe there’s some cosmetic aspects you want to refresh or adjust to your taste, but there’s no massive projects hanging over your head when you move in. The main thing you get is solid bones and a good, private plot—plenty of space to grown veggies, add a kids’ play area, or just enjoy outdoor living. The double garage means storage isn’t an issue, and you could even use that extra space for hobbies or to park your classic car (believe it or not, classic car clubs are popular here).
For families, it’s a great spot: there’s local schools in the village, and for international schooling, Maastricht opens up a lot of options. You can walk or take the bike to nearby bakeries, or head into Maastricht for shopping sprees or long dinners. For retirees, the quieter pace and nature make it appealing—and the bungalow means no steps to worry about.
Summing up, if you’re looking for a move-in ready house with lots of space, easy access to the best of Belgium and the Netherlands, and a true countryside lifestyle, this is a solid choice. There’s potential to personalize, good energy performance, and it’s already got the important upgrades ticked off.
I hope this gives you a realistic idea what this bungalow could offer—I do my best to keep it honest so there’s no surprises. If you want to know about the neighborhood, schools, or possibilities for remote work here, just let me know!
And again, excuse any typos—just another busy day matching buyers to their next home.
