Ballast Nedam Development has sold two building blocks of the new-build project COUR, located along the Groene Loper in Maastricht, to CLB and Hinke Fongers Vastgoed. The transaction comprises 137 rental apartments, 35 parking spaces and approximately 230 m² GFA of commercial space. Capital Value advised on the sale on behalf of Ballast Nedam Development.
COUR is a development by Ballast Nedam Development and represents a high-quality residential location along the Groene Loper in Maastricht. The project consists of 199 sustainable homes with energy label A+++, of which 137 homes are intended for the rental market and 62 for owner-occupation. The homes vary in size and cater to a range of target groups. Laudy Bouw is responsible for construction, with the start of works scheduled for June 2026.
The project has been designed with a strong focus on healthy and comfortable urban living. Architecture, generous daylight access, green inner courtyards and energy-efficient design principles all contribute to a future-proof residential quality.
From a transaction perspective, COUR is also regarded as a compelling example of sustainable urban development. According to Arjan Peerboom, CEO of Capital Value, the project demonstrates that quality and sustainability increasingly go hand in hand in new-build investments:
“COUR is a wonderful example of sustainable urban development. The combination of high-quality architecture, an energy-efficient design and its location along the Groene Loper makes this a future-proof investment. We see confidence in new-build transactions increasing again, and COUR is an excellent example of that. We congratulate Ballast Nedam Development, CLB and Hinke Fongers Vastgoed on this successful transaction.”
Living along the Groene Loper
The Groene Loper is considered one of the most prominent urban transformation projects in Maastricht. The former motorway route has been transformed into a green urban boulevard where sustainability, liveability and social interaction are central. Wide walking and cycling paths, attention to biodiversity and an open streetscape create a pleasant, future-oriented living environment.
COUR fits seamlessly into this vision and contributes to a diverse housing offering in a green, low-traffic environment, with a strong focus on energy efficiency and residential quality. For Ballast Nedam Development, the project represents the next step in this area development. As Onno Dwars, CEO of Ballast Nedam Development, explains:
“The Groene Loper proves that a city can change radically when health and space for social interaction are put at the centre. With COUR, we are taking the next step in this area development. The collaboration with CLB and Hinke Fongers makes it possible to add 137 high-quality and sustainable rental homes, contributing to a diverse and future-proof housing supply in Maastricht.”
