Living where tranquillity, space and character come together

Set amidst the vast polder landscape of Zeeuws-Vlaanderen, tucked away in the idyllic hamlet of Het Eiland, lies this beautifully renovated detached house. A place where the silence is broken only by the song of birds, where the seasons unfold in all their splendour, and where every day begins with a breathtaking view over the vast polders.

This characterful house was completely renovated and modernised between 2020 and 2022 with great care and attention to detail. High-quality, sustainable materials were chosen that blend seamlessly with the property’s authentic character. Set on a generous plot of 940 m², just 500 metres from the Belgian border, this property offers a unique combination of rural tranquillity, space and comfort.

From the sunny garden and the spacious roof terrace, you can enjoy panoramic views over the characteristic Zeeuws-Vlaanderen landscape. The south-west-facing garden invites you to spend long summer evenings on one of the charming terraces and the fully equipped garden shed complete the outdoor living experience.
