Alright, as a bussy agent for a large global real estate group, I’m gonna walk you thru this property in Bilzen-Hoeselt, Belgium (Bosstraat 26) – and just to let you know, I get a lot of interest from overseas and expat clients, so I’ll give you a fair idea what it’s actually like living around here too, not just what’s inside the walls. There’s a lot to cover, so let’s get to it. First of all, this house is a semi-detached, so you do have neighbours on one side, just so you know. The street is very quiet, tucked away in Rosmeer which is more of a village feel than a proper city, so you’re not gonna see heavy traffic out front or hear any nightlife at 2 am. It's not ultra-remote either – just comfortably out-of-the-way. You get the feeling you’re in the countryside, but you still can get anywhere pretty fast. This property might grab you if you like a mix of open-space living outdoors and a comfortable indoor life. There are no big fences, feels natural, and the views from the main windows are green. Let’s talk basics -- house was renovated 2019, so for Belgium the place is in pretty good shape. No giant project looming over you, but as always, any home will need upkeep. The roof, windows, heating, and electricity all up-to-date but don’t expect ‘brand new showroom’ gloss inside, it's not that kind of house. What you do get: warm, inviting spaces that are actually livable, and the renovation was done with energy use in mind (which in Belgium, makes your bills much easier to handle, trust me). About living space, 145 m² in total, set on a plot just below 600 m². Perfect size if you need a bit of garden and don’t want to spend your whole weekend on lawn work. If you’re a small family, this fits nicely, but also works fo ... click here to read more

Alright folks, sorry for the shorter reply but honestly, I’m running all over the place today with viewings and calls, but I’ll do my best to paint a good picture for you because I know, especially for buyers overseas, how important it is to get a really clear sense of what you’re looking at—both in and out of the house. If you’re considering the region around Lanaken, honestly, it’s got a lot going for it for both families and people just wanting that balance between town life and accessibility to other big centres like Maastricht or even further into Belgium – you can really see why people from abroad keep coming here. Let’s start with the house itself at Stationstraat 137. You’ve got a house that doesn’t just feel like every other house on the market – it was built in the late 30’s, so you get those solid lines and a bit of personality, and then over the years there’s been some work put in to make it a comfortable house that actually feels good to live in (not always the case with houses of this age). Now, it’s not a perfect “brand new” house, but it’s in good condition, so you won’t need to rip everything out and start again. The last few owners have already done the big stuff and there’s a nice mix between those tougher older materials and some of the newer fitting (a bit industrial, a bit homey). You get four bedrooms here, so if you’ve got kids, or need a home office plus a guest room, it gives you a decent spread. Living here gives you a pretty decent amount of day-to-day space. The hallway when you walk in opens right up, so you don’t feel cramped. The lounge/dining has those big sliding doors onto the garden, which is great in the summer – and you actually get sun thanks to the south-east facing garden. Th ... click here to read more

Alright folks, sorry for the shorter reply but honestly, I’m running all over the place today with viewings and calls, but I’ll do my best to paint a good picture for you because I know, especially for buyers overseas, how important it is to get a really clear sense of what you’re looking at—both in and out of the house. If you’re considering the region around Lanaken, honestly, it’s got a lot going for it for both families and people just wanting that balance between town life and accessibility to other big centres like Maastricht or even further into Belgium – you can really see why people from abroad keep coming here. Let’s start with the house itself at Stationstraat 137. You’ve got a house that doesn’t just feel like every other house on the market – it was built in the late 30’s, so you get those solid lines and a bit of personality, and then over the years there’s been some work put in to make it a comfortable house that actually feels good to live in (not always the case with houses of this age). Now, it’s not a perfect “brand new” house, but it’s in good condition, so you won’t need to rip everything out and start again. The last few owners have already done the big stuff and there’s a nice mix between those tougher older materials and some of the newer fitting (a bit industrial, a bit homey). You get four bedrooms here, so if you’ve got kids, or need a home office plus a guest room, it gives you a decent spread. Living here gives you a pretty decent amount of day-to-day space. The hallway when you walk in opens right up, so you don’t feel cramped. The lounge/dining has those big sliding doors onto the garden, which is great in the summer – and you actually get sun thanks to the south-east facing garden. Th ... click here to read more
