35 new homes planned for Elshout
Good news for Elshout! On March 9, 2026, the municipal executive decided in principle to approve plans for a new residential district in Elshout. In Gorsen III, between Mayweg and Jan van Wijckstraat, plans are underway to build 35 homes. This will be a mix of different types of housing, including social rentals, affordable purchase options, mid-market housing, and private-sector homes, including lifetime homes.
This means homes will be available for every target group—first-time buyers, those looking to move up, and seniors. The homes will be set in a green environment and will blend seamlessly with the existing housing in the area. In consultation with Parochie Wonderbare Moeder (the landowner), developer Peters Bouw en Onderhoud has developed the plan, which follows on from Gorsen II. The parish aims to contribute to the creation of new homes for a broad target group, initially intended for residents of Elshout and the Municipality of Heusden.
Now it’s up to the initiators to further develop the plan. Several steps still need to be taken, followed by a permit procedure. Let’s hope for a swift continuation!
