Herlegem Castle Estate

At the border of East and West Flanders, where Kruisem, Nokere and Waregem meet, lies an estate that has enjoyed this location for centuries. The estate is accessible via a cobbled driveway with an iron entrance gate. The preserved moat and the old trees surrounding it provide a unique setting and privacy.

The castle dates back to the eighteenth century and is built in the Louis XVI style, with a symmetrical facade and refined detailing that has stood the test of time. The park, with its entrance bridge and courtyard, completes the whole and testifies to a thoughtful layout.

The entrance hall with Ionic pilasters and a marble floor forms a representative entrance to the castle. The adjacent living spaces have been carefully maintained over time and have retained their original character.

In addition to the castle, the estate includes two outbuildings, formerly used as a coach house and caretaker's residence, and a garden pavilion from the nineteenth century. These buildings offer possibilities for a complementary use alongside the residential function, such as an office space for a family office, a home practice, small-scale tourist accommodation, or a granny flat. Such ancillary function needs to be discussed with the urban planning department.

The estate covers 4.4 hectares, providing the space and privacy befitting a property of this level. Kasteel Herlegem is an authentic and representative estate for those seeking character in the vicinity of Waregem, Ghent, Kortrijk and Oudenaarde.
