Buying a home in Genne-Overwaters, Hasselt.
You're looking at a genuinely quiet rural corner where detached family homes sit on spacious plots with room to breathe. Most neighbors are serious about privacy and self-sufficiency—gardens, sheds, the occasional hobby farm. It's fifteen minutes by car to Hasselt town center for shops and services, or straight onto the A28 if you need further out. This isn't a place for walkable weekends; you'll need a car, but the trade-off is proper space and neighbors who respect distance.
