A report by Belgian property website Immoweb has revealed the most expensive streets and most affordable streets in Belgium's biggest cities.

The 20 most expensive streets in Belgium are all located in Brussels. The top five most expensive streets are all located in Uccle or the Étangs de Flagey area.

The costliest street for buying property is Avenue des Châlets in Uccle, with an average price of €5,688 per square metre. This is followed by Rue de la Vallée, just off Avenue Louise (€5,521 per square metre); Avenue des Klauwaerts in Ixelles (€5,447 per square metre); la Drève du Caporal in Uccle (€5, 436  per square metre); and Rue Louis Hymans in Ixelles (€5,402  per square metre).

Conversely, the least expensive street in Brussels is Rue de Groeninghe in Molenbeek-Saint-Jean, with a price of €2,206 per square metre.

In Wallonia, Namur hosts the ten most expensive streets for property. Rue Saint-Jean leads with a price of €3,174 per square metre, while Rue des Fossés Fleuris follows at €3,146, and Rue du Président at €3,080 per square metre.

The priciest street in Flanders is Vogelmarkt in Ghent, averaging €5,116 per square metre, placing it 21st in the overall ranking. Next are Rector de Somerplein at €5,015 and Monseigneur Ladeuzeplein at €4,969 per square metre, both in Leuven.

The prices mentioned in the report are from May 2025, based on prices listed on Immoweb.

Property prices soar

Property prices have skyrocketed in Belgium in recent years. The price of a typical Belgian house has risen by more than 60% over the past 14 years, outpacing wages, inflation and even the expectations of many homeowners.

Figures published earlier this month by Belgian statistical agency Statbel show the median price of a terraced or semi-detached house in Belgium reached €260,000 in 2024, up from €160,000 in 2010. Detached homes, some of Belgium’s most expensive properties, now average €370,000, while even a modest apartment will cost around €243,000.

Inside the Brussels‑Capital Region, the price ladder is steep. Earlier this year, The Brussels Times reported that the average price of a detached house in Brussels had topped €1.1 million, with terraced houses reaching €485,000.
