Pulderbos

Pulderbos is the most exclusive and residential sub-municipality of Zandhoven, known for decades for its expansive villa neighbourhoods, wooded avenues and a remarkably green, park-like living environment. The village breathes tranquillity and class: the Liersebaan and Oude Liersebaan are flanked by stately homes on spacious plots — often 1,000 to 3,000 m² — surrounded by mature beeches, oaks and rhododendrons that dominate the streetscape. The Kapellei and Hoekstraat offer an even more exclusive segment with villas in park-like gardens. Pulderbos has its own primary school (Het Paleis), an active youth movement (Chiro), a tennis club (TC Pulderbos) and an equestrian association that support social life. The Pulderbos Walking Path (8 km) winds through the village and showcases the green richness of the area.

The property market in Pulderbos belongs to the higher price segments in the region, comparable to Schilde and Brasschaat, reflecting the exclusivity and appeal of the location. Villa properties with plots of 1,000 m² and more are the rule rather than the exception here — the average selling price is 30-40% above the Zandhoven average. Buyers are often dual-income households, couples 40+ and families who deliberately choose space and greenery near Antwerp. De Steenboer guides sellers in Pulderbos in optimally positioning their property: the right photography, the right network and the right pricing strategy in a segment where discretion and quality take priority. We advise buyers on the best fitting location within this sought-after villa area just 20 minutes from Antwerp.
