Buying a home in Bedrijventerrein Kerkerak, Sliedrecht.
Bedrijventerrein Kerkerak is where Sliedrecht works—a mix of small manufacturers, logistics companies, and craft businesses alongside the Hollandse IJssel. If you're buying here, you're looking at industrial and semi-industrial properties, not family homes; this is for people who want to live close to their business or invest in commercial space. The waterfront location means good access to inland shipping routes, and the area stays quieter than you'd expect because most activity is daytime-based. You'll have straightforward road links to the A15 highway and Utrecht.
