Water and nature play an important role in the perception of residential happiness. These elements are also frequently found in Othene. It is not only the green and water-rich character that makes living in Othene so special. The amenities, such as schools, childcare, a supermarket and many playgrounds, also contribute to the strength of the neighbourhood.

Strong DNA from Othene
At Othene, we develop homes for everyone.
Wide range of properties
In addition to families, senior citizens also greatly appreciate the neighbourhood. The lifetime homes on the residential islands, among other places, perfectly match their housing needs. The new concept, The One, offers affordable homes for first-time buyers, among others, in a green environment.
High rating for home and living environment
In 2021, an extensive residential satisfaction survey was conducted in Othene. Othene scored a 9 for housing and an 8 for the residential environment. The main reasons for living in Othene are: the layout of the neighbourhood, the type of housing currently available, the atmosphere of the neighbourhood and the architectural style. The proximity to the Otheense Kreek, the Westerschelde area and the Margarethapolder nature reserve are also greatly appreciated by current residents.
Inclusive city
Every town has people who need care and assistance. Whereas this used to be provided in care centres and institutions, it is now increasingly happening within the community. This is also the case in Othene. In the centre of Othene, there is a youth centre for 14 young people aged 12 to 18 who are temporarily unable to live at home. It is important to focus on developing an environment that is accessible to everyone.
Happiness in your home
Area development is not specifically about the many homes being built in Othene. It is about the happiness we have been able to create for all buyers and now thousands of residents. And it is not just about stacking bricks. After all, we focus on developing a beautiful, natural environment with plenty of space for socialising, health, sustainability and relaxation. That is what project development is really about.
