Why sell in Hemiksem?

Local market highlights

Hemiksem is located less than 15 kilometres from the centre of Antwerp and is accessible via the N177 and the Kennedy Tunnel, making the municipality popular with commuters who wish to live outside the city.
With a median house price of €307,250 in Q4 2025, Hemiksem is notably below the Antwerp average, offering entry-level opportunities for young families and first-time buyers.
The low number of transactions (22 houses in Q4 2025) means the market is relatively illiquid: sellers must price realistically to avoid lengthy time on the market, while buyers must act quickly when a suitable property becomes available.
The price spread of €250,500 to €395,000 (Q1-Q3) demonstrates that Hemiksem encompasses both modest terraced houses and more spacious semi-detached and detached properties, particularly in the more residential neighbourhoods towards the hinterland.
The location along the Scheldt and the proximity of green buffer zones make Hemiksem attractive for those who place a high value on outdoor space and a peaceful living environment, without being far from urban amenities.
The slight price decline of 2 per cent compared to the previous year offers buyers some room for negotiation, though the limited supply means that well-located properties in good condition hold their value well.

Real estate market in Hemiksem

The property market in Hemiksem is relatively limited in volume, which is typical of a small municipality. In the fourth quarter of 2025, 22 house transactions were recorded, with a median sale price of €307,250. This represents a slight decline compared to the previous year, when the median stood at €313,500 - a difference of approximately 2 per cent. House prices range between €250,500 and €395,000 for the middle segment (Q1 to Q3), indicating that both starter homes and more high-end properties come to market. Flats sell for an average of €250,000. For buyers, Hemiksem offers a realistic alternative to the considerably more expensive Antwerp market. The municipality is easily accessible via the N177 and the nearby motorway connections towards Antwerp and Brussels. The Scheldt bridge and the tunnel also connect the municipality to the right bank. For families, the presence of local schools, sports facilities, and green spaces along the Scheldt embankment is an additional asset. Sellers would do well to take into account the limited transaction volume: a correctly priced property will attract the right buyer far more quickly than an overpriced asking price that lingers on the market for months. In that respect, a local estate agent with knowledge of the specific Hemiksem market is by no means a luxury.
