A New Home for Stephane and Els
Discover how they found their dream home in the charming Westkapelle
A contemporary home that exudes tranquility, that was the dream of Stephane and Els. Through Instagram, they got in touch with Hectaar. What started as an online connection, quickly evolved into a successful collaboration and eventually a warm home in Westkapelle. "The posts about the project in Westkapelle immediately appealed to us," says Els. "It was precisely that combination of Knokke charm and contemporary style that we were looking for." That first impression quickly led to a deeper acquaintance with both the project and the village, which immediately captivated them. "Westkapelle immediately gave us a sense of calm," Stephane adds. "It's wonderful to live there: semi-rural, with a village character, yet close to the city. That balance was crucial for us. We wanted to escape the hustle and bustle without living in an isolated place."
From First Impression to Right Choice
What ultimately convinced Stephane and Els was the unique combination of authentic architecture and the trust that Hectaar exudes. "The traditional building style combined with the reliability of Hectaar homes immediately convinced us," says Stephane. "You feel like you’re partnering with a solid company, one with expertise and a clear vision."
The first contact with Hectaar confirmed that feeling. “Our introduction to Louise was immediately a hit,” Els recalls. “She knew her dossier inside and out and exuded confidence and professionalism. She listened to our wishes and at the same time provided clear direction. That gave us peace of mind from the very beginning.”
Quality in Every Step of the Process
"The entire building process went transparently, with clear communication and smooth follow-up. That made the adventure so much more enjoyable,” says Stephane. Particularly in the finishing phase, there was active consideration of their wishes. The kitchen was a major priority for Stephane and Els. "It had to be the centerpiece of our house: not only beautiful but also functional and spacious,” says Els. “Nathalie van Kaster understood us perfectly. It was as if she could read our minds and effortlessly translated that into a design that was just right.” The collaboration with sister companies Kaster and Dagmaat also reinforced the sense of quality. “You notice that Hectaar surrounds itself with reliable partners who uphold the same high standards.”
Feeling at Home from Day One
Today, Stephane and Els are thoroughly enjoying their new home. “It’s a house that feels right in every aspect,” says Stephane. “Every space feels thoughtfully designed, and we felt completely at home from day one.” They describe their entire journey with Hectaar as smooth, clear, and personal. “For us, Hectaar is much more than a developer. They offer trust, quality, and an approach that truly makes a difference.”
