Kasterlee

Kasterlee is a beautiful, forest-rich municipality in the heart of the Kempen that combines nature and quality of living in an exceptional way. With more than 2,000 hectares of forest, Kasterlee is one of the greenest municipalities in Flanders. The municipality encompasses the centres of Kasterlee, Lichtaart, Tielen and the Retie hamlet, each with their own charm and amenities. Kasterlee centre at the Markt offers cosy hospitality, the Colruyt and Delhaize, primary schools De Notelaar and Het Kompas, and the popular municipal swimming pool De Beeltjens that attracts families from across the region. The extensive forests of the Gemeentebos, the Lichtaart heathland and the Kempen Ridge invite year-round walking, cycling and horseback riding. The Kempen Cycling Route (F105) crosses through the municipality.

The property market in Kasterlee is stable and attractive, with a steady price increase of 3-5% per year driven by growing demand for forest-rich living. The combination of an exceptional green environment, good schools and smooth accessibility via the E34 (Kasterlee exit, 5 min) makes the municipality popular with families, over-55s and nature-loving remote workers. From renovated farmhouses at the forest edge in Lichtaart to modern new-build villas in the Dennenlaan district — the supply is diverse but limited, which supports prices. De Steenboer knows the Kempen property market through and through and guides buyers and sellers in Kasterlee with the personal approach that characterises us. We know which forest plots are protected, which neighbourhoods are emerging and where the best opportunities lie.
