Features such as bird nesting boxes, green roofs, and green façades are planned to support urban biodiversity.
Deurne alderman of the municipality Marjan Vrijnsen-de Corte said: “With these 53 social housing apartments, we are creating affordable housing for people who desperately need it.
“At the same time, I understand that the neighbourhood would have liked to retain the existing green space and play areas. I believe that 53 households will soon find a home here in a beautiful location, carefully integrated into the greenery, where it is pleasant to live, work, and play.”
The apartments will also be equipped with an air-to-water heat pump, large windows, underfloor heating, and ventilation systems.
Insulation has been planned to maintain indoor air quality and improve energy efficiency.
Bergopwaarts interim director Hans Vedder said: “This project demonstrates what’s possible when we collaborate with the municipality, construction partners, and local residents. We’re starting now and not only building homes here, but also working on a future-proof neighbourhood where everyone can live comfortably.”
Full construction work begins immediately, with completion anticipated by late 2026.
The surrounding green areas are being developed in partnership with Ducot Engineering & Advies to serve local community needs.
