Why sell in Beernem?

Local market highlights

Beernem railway station offers direct connections to Bruges (approx. 15 minutes) and Ghent (approx. 30 minutes), making the municipality attractive for dual-income households who work in the city but wish to live outside it.

With a median price of €327,500 in Q4 2025, house prices in Beernem are noticeably lower than in the neighbouring municipality of Bruges, offering buyers the opportunity to get more property for their budget.

The limited transaction volume of 37 house sales in a single quarter means the market is relatively illiquid - as a seller, accurate pricing from the outset is essential to avoid a prolonged time on the market.

The sub-municipality of Oedelem has its own village character with local shops and amenities, whilst Sint-Joris is more rurally oriented - the choice of sub-municipality influences both the price and the profile of prospective buyers.

The Bulskampveld, a large woodland area within the territory of Beernem, is an asset for families with children and active buyers - properties in the vicinity of this recreational area are generally sought after.

The price correction of 27.2% compared to the previous year warrants careful interpretation: at low transaction volumes, outliers can significantly distort the statistics, and a local estate agent is better placed to assess what a specific property is realistically worth.

Real estate market in Beernem

The property market in Beernem showed a notable evolution in the fourth quarter of 2025. The median price for houses stands at €327,500, with a price range between €257,000 and €420,000 for the middle half of transactions. This represents a significant decline compared to the median price of €450,000 the previous year, amounting to a correction of 27.2%. This figure warrants some nuance: with only 37 transactions in the quarter, the volume is limited, meaning individual sales can have a considerable impact on the statistics. Buyers who have been following the market for some time may see this as a favourable entry point. For sellers, it is important to maintain realistic price expectations and to seek proper guidance from an estate agent with local knowledge. The correction in the figures does not necessarily mean that every property has decreased in value, but rather that the market has become more selective. Well-located and move-in-ready properties remain in demand, whilst properties requiring renovation allow for greater negotiating room. Beernem primarily attracts families looking for space, tranquillity and greenery, whilst still wanting to live within easy reach of urban amenities. The wooded character of the surroundings - including the Bulskampveld as a green recreational area - makes the municipality particularly appealing to those who wish to live in the countryside without being far from city facilities.
