Apartment with South-Facing Balcony Near the Beach in Cadzand-Bad
Key Features
Description
This apartment is located at De Lopinge 91 in the coastal village of Cadzand-Bad, situated in the municipality of Sluis in the province of Zeeland. Cadzand-Bad is well known for its wide sandy beaches, its proximity to the Belgian border, and its pleasant seaside atmosphere that attracts both permanent residents and holidaymakers throughout the year.
The apartment occupies a quiet position on the first floor of the building while being centrally located within Cadzand-Bad. From the property, it takes only a few minutes on foot to reach all daily amenities. The nearby shopping gallery houses a fish shop, a delicatessen selling cold cuts, a bicycle rental service, a drugstore, a supermarket, several restaurants, and an ice cream parlor. The marina with its characteristic wooden square and the Walk of Freedom is also within walking distance. Perhaps most notably, the wide sandy beach of Cadzand is reachable within minutes, where visitors can enjoy the various beach pavilions such as De Piraat, which offers food, drinks, and views of the sunset over the North Sea.
Access to the apartment is via a communal entrance hall and a staircase leading to the first floor. Upon entering, residents find themselves in a hallway that provides space for coats and outerwear. The living room immediately impresses with its abundant natural light, thanks to large windows that span the full width of the apartment. This through-living arrangement with a spacious outlook gives the room an open and airy feeling.
From the living room, a door leads to the south-facing balcony, which measures 5.48 meters by 2.88 meters, providing approximately 15.75 square meters of outdoor space. The view from both the living room and the balcony is predominantly of trees and greenery, creating a pleasant and peaceful setting. Adjacent to the private balcony is a large communal terrace that is directly accessible, which makes the overall outdoor area feel even more open and spacious. The balcony is equipped with a windbreak, allowing residents to enjoy sitting outside early in the spring season.
The kitchen within the apartment is fitted with various appliances, including a four-burner induction cooktop, an extractor hood, a large and a small sink, a combination microwave, a separate refrigerator and freezer combination, and a washing machine. From the entrance hall, residents can access the bathroom, which contains a shower and a washbasin, as well as a separate toilet room that includes a small sink.
The second floor of the apartment is reached via a fixed staircase in the living room. On this level, there is a spacious landing that was previously used as a bedroom. From this landing, two bedrooms are accessible. The second bedroom was created by installing an intermediate floor in the void space, which added extra square meters to the living area. This bedroom also features a side window for additional light and ventilation.
A notable feature of this apartment is the private lockable storage room located in a freestanding stone building on the grounds next to the parking area. This storage space is particularly useful for keeping beach equipment, bicycles, or electric bikes. Only a limited number of apartments in the complex have the advantage of a private storage facility.
The complex is well maintained by the homeowners association. An extensive renovation project for the De Lopinge complex is scheduled for completion in winter 2026. This renovation includes the replacement of flat roofs including roof tiles, as well as painting of window frames, doors, and balcony railings. The apartment itself has received several recent updates: double glazing, a double-insulated roof, a new terrace door installed in 2025, two new casement windows with ventilation slots on the upper floor to be installed in 2026, and all walls were plastered in 2021. A ceiling fan has been installed to provide cooling during warm summer days.
Hot water is supplied through an electric boiler, and heating is provided by electric radiators controlled by a room thermostat. The property has an energy label E, which reflects the building age of 1977 while also acknowledging the insulation improvements that have been made.
The apartment is offered for sale with almost the entire inventory included, which could be advantageous for buyers looking for a turnkey solution, whether for permanent residence or as a holiday home. The building-bound outdoor space is listed as 16 square meters. The external storage space measures 4 square meters. The total volume of the apartment is 194 cubic meters.
Financial aspects include a VvE contribution of 659.23 euros per quarter, which covers green maintenance, insurance, cable television, internet, and other communal services. An additional VvE contribution of 55 euros per quarter applies for the private storage room. Parking is available directly in front of the building for permit holders, and there is a communal bicycle storage facility on the premises.
The homeowners association is properly organized, as confirmed by the VvE checklist: the association is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, holds annual meetings, collects periodic contributions, maintains a reserve fund, has a maintenance plan in place, and has building insurance coverage.
