This villa for sale in Kalmthout stands on a fully fenced 1,281 m² plot, with a south-facing terrace and a double garage inside the house. Built in 1986 and in good condition, it gives a family about 340 m² of living area on a quiet, green street in the north of Antwerp province, close to the Dutch border. ### Inside the House: Two Floors and Flexible Rooms The front door opens into a wide entrance hall with a guest toilet. To one side is an office that can double as a bedroom, useful if you work from home or someone needs a room without stairs. On the other side is the living room, about 60 m², lit by large windows and warmed by a central see-through fireplace. Sliding doors lead straight onto the south-facing terrace, so on a dry evening the room effectively continues outside. The semi-open kitchen has an oven, fridge, double sink and gas stove, with a storage room next to it for everything that would otherwise clutter the worktops. Also on the ground floor: a bathroom with bath, double washbasin and toilet, and a separate laundry room with connections for a washing machine and dryer. The double garage connects to the house from inside, so unloading the shopping in the rain is a short walk. A solid wooden staircase rises to an open landing and three bedrooms, each with room for beds and wardrobes. A further large room upstairs is still open to your ideas. The seller describes it as a possible main suite with private bathroom and walk-in closet, or alternatively a playroom, gym or hobby room. There is one bathroom at the moment, so a suite would be a project of your own. A recently installed central heating boiler means one major system is already up to date. ### A Fully Fenced Garden on 1,281 m² The garden is the ... click here to read more

This renovated villa for sale in Lanaken sits in the Gellik district on a 1,492 m² plot, with 292 m² of living space and four bedrooms. Two bedrooms and a full bathroom are on the ground floor, so everyday life happens on one level. A separate upper floor with its own staircase gives you room for guests, an office or grown-up children. The house was renovated in 2022 and has solar panels and a 10.2 kW home battery, so there is no long to-do list waiting for the new owner. ### A Single-Level Villa with a Flexible Upper Floor You enter through a roomy hall with a large cloakroom and a guest toilet. The living area runs open-plan from a dining space to a sitting area, with space for a big table and a proper sofa corner. The fully renovated kitchen opens straight onto the terrace and garden, so you can carry breakfast outside without crossing another room. Behind the kitchen is a utility room with extra storage, a fridge and a built-in microwave. It also has a side entrance, handy when you come home with muddy boots or a boot full of shopping. The laundry room has a wide countertop, a sink, built-in cabinets and connections for a washing machine and dryer. From there you reach the garage, which holds one car. The ground floor has two bedrooms. The first is large and has an adjoining room that the current owners use as an office or dressing room. The second bedroom is at the back, looks onto the terrace and has air conditioning. The ground-floor bathroom has a walk-in shower, a bathtub, a double sink and a toilet. Upstairs you find three separate rooms and a bathroom with a shower, sink and toilet. The staircase starts in the garage, which keeps this floor apart from the main living area. It could work as extra bedrooms, ... click here to read more

This detached villa for sale in Hamont-Achel stands on 1,932 m² of land with a permitted 120 m² workshop beside the garden. Built in 1989 and well kept, it has 329 m² of living space over three levels, and the Dutch border is only a few minutes away. It suits a large family, or anyone who needs real room for tools, vehicles or a small business next to the house. ### A Family Villa on Three Levels The ground floor starts with a wide entrance hall, a guest toilet and the staircase up. Two separate living rooms sit off the hall. One can serve as the everyday room and the other as a quieter sitting room. The seller notes that one could also become a ground-floor bedroom, which is useful if stairs become a concern later. The kitchen connects directly to the living areas. The integrated garage is currently used as an office and can go back to being a garage. Upstairs are three bedrooms. The main one has a west-facing balcony over the garden, so evening light reaches it. The family bathroom has a shower, bathtub and vanity unit, with a separate toilet next to it. A storage room on this floor could be turned into a fourth bedroom. A fixed staircase leads to the attic, which has another bedroom and a lot of storage, and the basement adds more. The listing counts four bedrooms, but the layout gives you room to go beyond that. ### The Workshop, Carport and Garden The 120 m² workshop (8 x 15 m) was built in 1996 and is described as permitted. That is rare on a private house plot. It could serve as a joinery or mechanics space, a place for a hobby, or storage for a trade. Check the permitted use with the municipality before you plan anything commercial. Other outbuildings include a wide double carport, a bicycle store, a covere ... click here to read more

This villa for sale in Maasmechelen, Limburg, was built in 2024 and stands on a 710 m² fenced plot with solar panels and a heat pump. You can move in without picking up a paintbrush. The house has 243 m² of living space, three bedrooms upstairs and a ground-floor room that could become a fourth. The rear garden faces southeast, so the morning sun reaches the terrace area first. For a family that wants a modern Belgian house with the technical work already done, this is a straightforward choice. ### The House: 243 m² of Modern Living Space The entrance hall opens straight onto the main living area. Living room, dining space and kitchen share one open plan, and large windows and sliding doors bring in daylight and lead out to the garden. The kitchen is the room you will notice first. It has a ceramic worktop with thickened edges, an induction hob, a Novy extractor hood, an oven, a microwave, a dishwasher and a Bauknecht fridge. A Quooker boiling-water tap and power outlets built into the worktop are already installed. A discreet door leads to a utility room, which can also be reached from outside, so muddy boots and garden tools never need to cross the living room. Next to the living area is a room currently used as a playroom. Plumbing for a shower is already in place, so it can be converted into a ground-floor bedroom with its own bathroom. That helps if grandparents move in or guests stay for a while. The ground floor also has a technical room and a separate guest toilet. ### Bedrooms, Bathroom and Technology Three bedrooms sit on the first floor, two of them with built-in wardrobes, and USB outlets are fitted in the bedrooms. The bathroom has a double washbasin, a heated mirror, a large walk-in shower and a bath ... click here to read more

This villa for sale in Dilsen-Stokkem, Limburg, pairs 266 m² of living space and an EPC A rating with a west-facing garden of 1,015 m². Built in 2007, the detached house has been looked after with real care. It has three bedrooms, a dressing room, a double garage and a fenced garden with automated gates. Everything is in good condition, so you can move in and start living rather than planning works. It suits a family that wants room to spread out. It also works for a buyer looking for a second home in Belgium who wants low running costs and a house that can be left in good order between visits. ### The House: 266 m² Over Two Floors You enter through a tidy hall with a guest toilet and an open wooden staircase. The ground floor is built around light. Large windows run along the garden side, and the living room, kitchen and dining area flow into one another without walls cutting them up. The living room has a wooden floor and a gas fireplace, which makes it the obvious place to be on a grey Limburg evening. The kitchen is fully fitted with plenty of storage and a breakfast nook. The appliances are Siemens, Bosch and Novy. Next to it, the dining area has wide glass panels facing the garden, so you eat with the lawn and borders in front of you. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a separate dressing room. The bathroom is modern, with a wide vanity unit and double sinks, which helps on busy mornings. There is a separate toilet on this floor too. ### A West-Facing Garden of 1,015 m² The garden has been laid out with hedges, flowering borders, a proper lawn and several places to sit. A terrace sits right against the house for outdoor meals. Further down the garden, a pergola gives you a quieter, more private corner. Because ... click here to read more

This detached villa for sale in Lommel, Limburg, has 371 m² of living space on a 1,450 m² wooded plot, five minutes from the Dutch border. Built in 1998 and in good condition, it stands in a quiet villa park among mature trees, with a southwest-facing garden around the house. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a hobby room and parking for several cars make it a practical base for a family, or for anyone who needs space on both sides of the border. ### A Villa Park Setting in Lommel The house sits in a forested villa park, so the first thing you notice is how little you hear. Neighbours are there, but the plot size and the trees and shrubs along the boundaries keep each house to itself. The garden faces southwest, which means sun on the terrace side from the afternoon into the evening. An irrigation system keeps the planting going through dry spells, a real help on a plot of this size. For anyone working in the Netherlands or with family there, the border is about five minutes away. That is a rare thing to find in a house with this much room. ### Inside: A Ground-Floor Bedroom, Two Upstairs and a Hobby Room The living room is built around a wood-burning stove and an open fireplace. Large windows look straight onto the garden, so the room stays light even when the trees are in full leaf. Next to it is a country-style kitchen with built-in appliances, plenty of cupboard space and enough worktop for real cooking. One large bedroom and a full bathroom are on the ground floor. The bathroom has a shower, bath, double washbasin and toilet. That layout suits guests, grandparents, or anyone who would rather not climb stairs every day. An indoor garage with a sectional door connects directly to the house, so you can unload the sh ... click here to read more

This villa for sale in Lanaken sits on a 1,250 m² plot in Smeermaas, a few minutes from Maastricht, and is ready to move into. Built in 1968 and substantially renovated in 2021, the house has 222 m² of living space, four bedrooms and a garden screened by beech hedges. Smeermaas lies right on the Dutch border, so the centre of Maastricht is a short drive away while your own street stays quiet and green. ### The House: 222 m² Over Three Levels The ground floor is organised around a large living room with room for both a sofa area and a full dining table. Wide windows face the garden, and a wood-burning stove gives the room its winter focus. The kitchen next door has a natural stone worktop, an induction hob, a dishwasher, a fridge, an oven and a combination oven. It looks onto the garden and opens straight to the terrace, so breakfast outside needs no planning. A laundry room and a separate office complete the ground floor. The office is a real room with a door, which matters if you work from home. Sun screens are fitted on both floors. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, including a spacious main bedroom with air conditioning and big windows over the garden. The bathroom was renovated in 2022 and has a bath, a shower, a washbasin, a toilet and a bidet. There is also an extra room that works as a study, hobby space or additional bedroom. A fixed staircase from that room leads to the attic, which is already set up as the fourth bedroom. A basement storage area keeps tools, garden equipment and the technical installations out of the living space. ### Garden and Terraces on 1,250 m² The plot is large by the standards of this area, and the planting does the work of privacy: beech hedges, mature trees and mixed borders gi ... click here to read more

This detached villa for sale in Ravels sits on a 1,350 m² southwest-facing plot, with a 120 m² upper floor and a drive-in basement. Built in 1972, it has 370 m² of living space, three bedrooms and open meadows behind the garden. It suits a family that wants room for work, hobbies and guests, and the asking price is €585,000. ### The Villa: 370 m² With 1970s Character The entrance hall leads into a living room with parquet flooring and a fireplace. Large windows face the front garden and the quiet street. The dining room sits in the middle of the ground floor and links the lounge to the kitchen, so the whole level reads as one connected space. The kitchen has a generous worktop, a breakfast nook and all the appliances. From the dining area you look straight out over the garden. The night hall gives access to three full-size bedrooms. Two have custom-built wardrobes, and all three overlook the rear garden, so you wake up to daylight and greenery. The main bathroom has a bathtub and custom cabinetry. A separate shower room and an extra toilet in the hall take the pressure off busy mornings. The house dates from 1972 and the period shows in the details: oak floors, distinctive brickwork and a layout drawn up by the original owner. The condition is good, and the style is unmistakably 1970s. Whether you keep it or update it room by room is your call. ### Upper Floor and Basement: Room to Grow The upper floor is the surprise. It measures about 120 m² and has views in every direction over the surrounding fields. It is currently open to your plans: a studio, a home office, a hobby room or extra bedrooms would all work. Water supply and drainage are already in place, so adding a bathroom up here would be straightforward. Th ... click here to read more

This villa for sale in Oud-Turnhout sits on a 2,183 m² southwest-facing plot beside a nature reserve, with an outdoor pool and a full basement. The house is big at 301 m², in good condition, and ready for a new owner's taste. The garden wraps around it, and the plot borders the reserve. The asking price is €649,000. ### The Villa: 301 m² and Four Bedrooms You enter through a spacious hall that opens into an L-shaped living room. It has a parquet floor, an open fireplace and large windows facing the garden, so it stays bright on grey Belgian afternoons. A veranda with sunshades is attached to the living room, a sheltered spot for morning coffee while you look out over the lawn. The kitchen is closed and fully equipped. It connects to the dining room and has a back door straight onto the terrace. Three bedrooms are on the ground floor, together with the bathroom (shower, bath, toilet and washbasin), a separate office and a hobby or storage room. A fixed staircase from the laundry room leads up to the attic, where a fourth bedroom is already finished and heated. The rest of the attic is storage. Four bedrooms share one bathroom. If you are a larger family, a second bathroom is worth budgeting for. ### Full Basement, Garage and Workshop Space The full basement is the practical backbone of the house. It holds a garage, the technical room and several multipurpose rooms that could become a workshop, fitness room, hobby space or plain storage. A direct door leads to the garden, so tools and garden furniture never have to pass through the living areas. ### Garden, Pool and the Nature Reserve Next Door The garden is landscaped and runs around the whole house. It has an outdoor swimming pool and several garden sheds. Becaus ... click here to read more

Saturday morning. The kitchen window is cracked open, and the only sounds are wood pigeons somewhere deep in the beech hedge and the faint creak of the veranda door catching the breeze. No traffic. No neighbors peering over the fence. Just 4,335 square meters of park garden stretching back toward open meadows, and the particular quiet that only comes when you're far enough from everything to actually exhale. That's Olmsebaan 204. And once you've stood in that garden, it's hard to imagine being anywhere else. This four-bedroom villa in Meerhout, in the green heart of the Campine region of Antwerp Province, sits on one of those rare plots where the garden doesn't end — it just becomes the countryside. A side gate opens directly onto the meadows behind, and there's no fence, no wall, no development blocking the view to the horizon. The mature tree embankment at the rear gives you total privacy from behind, while the south-facing orientation means the garden holds the sun from mid-morning until the last light of the evening. In June, that's a very long time. The villa itself was built in 1979, and you can feel the confidence of that era in the structure — solid, wide, set well back from the road behind a private driveway with an automatic gate. But the interiors have been carefully modernized over the years, and what you get now is something better than either original or contemporary alone. The oak woodwork that runs through the ground floor has been whitewashed to a pale, almost Scandinavian finish. Large windows — and there are a lot of them — pull the garden inside in a way that makes the 279 square meters of living space feel even more generous than it already is. Come in through the entrance hall, with its gallery ... click here to read more

On a still Sunday morning, the only sound you'll hear from the south-facing terrace of Baversstraat 261 is birdsong and the occasional distant church bell drifting in from Tongeren's medieval center, about ten minutes down the road. The garden stretches out ahead of you — nearly 3,700 square meters of it — with no rooftops visible on the horizon, no developer's crane in the distance, just open Flemish countryside rolling away under a wide Belgian sky. That view isn't going anywhere. The land beyond the plot is protected, meaning what you're looking at now is what you'll be looking at twenty years from now. This is a proper detached villa. Not a semi, not a townhouse with a postage-stamp yard, but a 303-square-meter freestanding home on a genuinely large private plot in one of Belgium's most historically compelling corners. Built in 1969 and kept in good condition throughout the decades, the house has the kind of solid bones you don't find in modern builds — wide rooms, real proportions, a layout designed when space wasn't rationed. Walk inside and the living room immediately makes its case. At nearly 49 square meters, it's the sort of room where a large family doesn't feel crowded, where a crowd of weekend guests can spread out naturally. Light floods in through generous windows that face the garden, so even on a grey Limburg afternoon — and yes, Belgium has those — the interior stays bright and connected to the outside. The kitchen, in warm light oak, runs to over 25 square meters. That's a working kitchen, not a display kitchen. You can actually cook a Sunday stoofvlees in there, with room to spare while someone else uncorks the local Haspengouw wine at the island. The adjacent dining room at 23 square meters keeps e ... click here to read more

Stand on the upper terrace on a still Tuesday morning and the Zuid-Willemsvaart canal is a mirror. Herons pick their way along the bank below. The only sound is the occasional low chug of a barge making its way south toward Maastricht, fifteen kilometers down the road. This is what Gerstenbosweg 14 feels like before the rest of the world wakes up — and that feeling doesn't wear off. Built in 2017 to a high specification, this detached three-bedroom villa in Lanklaar sits in one of the quieter corners of the Belgian-Dutch border region, a pocket of Europe that most international buyers haven't discovered yet. That's changing. The Maas Valley and the Kempen have been quietly drawing cyclists, nature lovers, and weekenders from Antwerp, Brussels, Cologne, and Amsterdam for years, and property prices here still reflect what the region was rather than what it's becoming. At 197 square meters of well-organized living space on a 460-square-meter plot, with an EPC-A energy rating and canal views from the first floor, this is the kind of find that doesn't sit on the market long. The villa is arranged across two levels in a way that actually makes sense for how people live on holiday. All three bedrooms — the master at 18 square meters with direct access to the bathroom, and two further rooms of 13 square meters each — sit on the ground floor, away from the heat of the afternoon sun and the noise of the terrace above. The bathroom has a double washbasin, walk-in shower, and large mirror with drawer storage. There's also a separate guest toilet, which matters more than you'd think once you have a house full of family or friends. The integrated double garage, 41 square meters with an automatic sectional door, utility sink, and til ... click here to read more

Step out onto the master bedroom balcony on a Saturday morning in October, coffee in hand, and watch the mist lift slowly off the meadows that run all the way to the treeline. That view — unbroken, unhurried, nothing but green — is the quiet headline of this property. Everything else is detail. Set on Leeuweriklaan in the prestigious villa district of Aarleheide in Poppel, this 300 m² four-bedroom villa sits on a generous 1,800 m² plot in one of Belgian Kempen's most coveted corners. Ravels municipality has long attracted those who want real countryside without sacrificing proximity to cities — Brussels is under two hours, Antwerp just 60 kilometres south, and the Dutch city of Tilburg is a 20-minute drive across the border. For international buyers looking for a second home in Belgium that genuinely delivers on the "escape" promise, this part of north Antwerp province delivers in ways that the more advertised coastal towns simply can't. The neighbourhood itself sets the tone the moment you turn into the street. Wide plots, mature trees, long driveways. No terrace houses, no apartment blocks. An electric entrance gate opens onto a broad driveway flanked by clipped hedging, and the scale of the property becomes clear immediately. A double garage with newly fitted electric doors and a double carport sit to one side, with a detached shed handling overflow storage — bikes, kayaks, garden tools, whatever life accumulates. Inside, the entrance hall is proper rather than perfunctory: a cloakroom, a guest toilet, and an adjacent flexible room that the current owners use as a home office but could just as easily become a playroom, treatment room, or study depending on who moves in next. The villa has that adaptability built in ... click here to read more

On a quiet Sunday morning in Lommel, with the window above the kitchen breakfast nook cracked open, you catch the faint rustle of pine trees from the Sahara nature reserve a short bike ride away. The smell of fresh coffee fills a kitchen big enough to actually cook in. That's the kind of morning this house was built for. Standing on Pieter Paul Rubensdreef — a tree-lined avenue in one of Lommel's most established villa parks — this five-bedroom home sits on a 1,588-square-metre plot and covers 423 square metres of interior space across two floors, plus a full basement and attic. Built in 1977 with an emphasis on durability over trends, it has aged well. The bones are solid, the materials were chosen to last, and the layout still makes sense for how families actually live. Walk through the front door and the entrance hall does something most modern homes forget to do: it makes you pause. The marble floor catches the light in the afternoon. There's a cloakroom to your right, a guest toilet tucked neatly away, and a dedicated home office just off the hall — genuinely separate from the living areas, which matters more than people expect until they're two years into working from home. The living room and dining room flow naturally from here, both laid with warm parquet that's far easier to love on a grey November day than polished concrete. The open fireplace in the lounge isn't decorative — it's the room's centrepiece, the thing that makes the space feel lived-in and real rather than staged. Five bedrooms give a family real breathing room. Each one has parquet flooring, and there's genuine flexibility here: one space could become a sixth bedroom with minimal effort. The two bathrooms are generously fitted — double sinks, ... click here to read more

On a quiet Sunday morning in Neerharen, the only sounds coming through the upstairs bedroom window are birdsong and the distant church bells drifting over from Maastricht. The garden below is already dappled with light, and the coffee is on. That's the kind of morning this address delivers — and it does it with almost unfair regularity. Reistraat 74 sits in the Goudkust residential area, one of those neighbourhoods that locals quietly keep to themselves. Tree-lined, unhurried, and genuinely green in a way that most suburban developments promise but rarely deliver. The 708-square-metre plot wraps around the villa with mature lawns, established trees, and a full perimeter fence secured by an electric gate. Children can play outside without supervision anxiety. Adults can eat dinner on the terrace without a neighbour's window staring back at them. Both things matter more than most property descriptions acknowledge. The villa itself is 251 square metres spread over three floors — twelve rooms in total, including three generous bedrooms. A fourth is achievable without significant structural work, which opens up real flexibility for a home office, a guest suite, or a room that changes purpose as the years go by. The renovation that's been carried out here isn't cosmetic. Roof, electrical systems, drainage, windows, doors, both bathrooms, the kitchen, utility room, air conditioning, and central heating have all been replaced or substantially upgraded. The Vaillant eco tec 30kW gas boiler was installed in 2023. Triple glazing and floor-to-ceiling roof insulation give the property an energy label C — solid performance for a home of this scale and era. The building is also certified asbestos-free, which matters to buyers who've ... click here to read more

Picture yourself sipping morning coffee on a sun-drenched southeast-facing terrace, surrounded by 1,000 square meters of private gardens, while planning your day's forest hike through the pine woodlands that stretch for miles beyond your property line. This is daily life at this versatile 363-square-meter villa in Lommel, where the Belgian Kempen region's natural beauty meets contemporary family living. Built in 1989 and meticulously maintained, this home serves families who value both connection to nature and professional functionality, with a dedicated office entrance that seamlessly blends work-from-home requirements with vacation property potential. Lommel's position in northeastern Belgium creates a unique vacation home proposition for international buyers. The town anchors the Bosland region, home to Europe's largest accessible forest network, with over 4,500 hectares of walking and cycling paths literally minutes from your door. Spring brings wildflowers carpeting the forest floor and the return of songbirds to the surrounding pines. Summer means long cycling expeditions through interconnected trails, family picnics by forest lakes, and evening barbecues that stretch past sunset. Autumn transforms the landscape into a tapestry of amber and gold, while winter offers crisp forest walks and cozy fireside evenings in the 50-square-meter living room with its working fireplace. The property's layout anticipates how modern families actually use vacation homes. The ground floor flows naturally from the spacious entrance hall through to the open-plan kitchen equipped with induction cooking, steam oven, and granite work surfaces. Sliding doors connect the living space to a 25-square-meter covered veranda, creating an indo ... click here to read more
