Prefab home extension in Tilburg
An extension in Tilburg starts with your home and its surroundings. Use local housing figures as context, compare usable space gained and consider access, existing foundations and the remaining garden. Connect those choices with your own budget and value scenario below.

Housing in Tilburg: the figures
These figures describe the area, not your individual home. The table uses CBS data for 2025. WOZ assessed values refer to 1 January 2024 and are not current sale prices.
| Measure | Tilburg |
|---|---|
| Residents | 230,357 |
| Dwelling stock | 107,237 |
| Average WOZ value per dwelling | €339,000 |
| Single-family homes | 62% |
| Mid-terrace homes | 40% |
| End-of-terrace homes | 13% |
| Semi-detached homes | 5% |
| Detached homes | 4% |
| Apartments / multi-family homes | 38% |
| Owner-occupied homes | 50% |
| Built within the previous ten years | 9% |
| Residents per km² of land | 1,830 |
| Land area | 12,589 ha |
| Water area | 257 ha |
Housing type percentages refer to total dwelling stock. Rounding or unknown values may prevent them adding up to 100%. Missing data does not mean zero. Areas describe the whole region, not garden or building plot sizes.
What do these figures mean for your plans?
CBS records 107,237 homes in Tilburg. Single-family homes account for 62% and owner-occupied homes for 50%. This provides local context; it does not establish the space, ownership situation or extension possibilities at your home.
Mid-terrace homes are the largest of the four listed single-family categories at 40%. For a terraced home, pay particular attention to rear garden access: measure the passage, discuss lifting work and record the boundary connection. A site visit establishes what applies to your home.
Population density is 1,830 residents per km² of land. In a densely built area, review truck and crane access, temporary work space and arrangements with neighbours early. Density is an area statistic; it does not prove that your street is difficult to access.
9% of homes were built in the ten years before the CBS reference date. This distribution is not a building inspection. Your extension depends on the existing wall, foundations, floor level and services: have their connections designed in advance.
A sound plan starts below ground.
What ground lies under your building position in Tilburg? A place name or property value cannot reliably answer that. Use subsurface data to prepare investigations, and base the foundation choice on measured ground layers, loads and the existing house.
This page does not establish a measured ground profile or soil type for your plot in Tilburg.
| If this is found… | Discuss… |
|---|---|
| Sand layers | Density, thickness and depth of suitable layers; surface sand does not establish a suitable foundation. |
| Clay or peat | Compressibility, water conditions and possible differential settlement between house and extension. |
| Fill or former buildings | Variable layers, debris, old foundations and any additional ground investigations. |
| Groundwater | Seasonal variation, excavation methods and suitable damp protection. |
BRO GeoTOP
BRO GeoTOP describes subsurface conditions in 100 × 100 metre cells and 0.5 metre layers. It provides a regional starting point; street or building assessments need additional detail. A model therefore does not replace investigation for your foundation design.
Explore subsurface data at BROloketGarden land is different from living space.
An extension adds indoor space while using garden area. Retain room for daylight, a terrace, greenery, maintenance and drainage. If buying additional land, assess ownership, permitted use and its price separately. Property value per m² is not a land price.
Read about foundations and the existing houseWhat does another metre give you?
First compare the space you can actually use. These examples assume a rectangular extension, two side walls and one front wall of 30 cm. The connection to the house has no rear wall in this simplified calculation.
| External dimensions | External area | Estimated internal area | Base amount at €2,750/m² |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 × 3 m | 12 m² | 9.18 m² | €33,000 |
| 5 × 3 m | 15 m² | 11.88 m² | €41,250 |
| 6 × 3 m | 18 m² | 14.58 m² | €49,500 |
| 6 × 4 m | 24 m² | 19.98 m² | €66,000 |
The base amount is external area × an illustrative rate of €2,750 including VAT. It is not a quotation, local market rate or total price. Foundations, structural opening, transport, options and complete finishes may be additional. Internal area is not a certified measurement.
Value per square metre: use your own home.
What is another square metre worth in Tilburg? That depends on the home, location, quality and sales market. Divide your home’s estimated current market value by its measured living area for a starting point. Then choose your own assumption for the new space.
We do not convert average WOZ values into a local sale price per m². Comparable sale prices and their corresponding floor areas have not been established here. The calculator starts with illustrative amounts that you can change.
MORE SPACE, POSSIBLE ADDED VALUE
What could your extension add?
Explore added living area and a possible value effect. The prefilled figures are examples; adjust them to your home.
Include foundations, the wall opening, transport and complete finishes in your budget. The configurator amount is not a complete building budget.

YOUR CALCULATION SCENARIO
Possible increase in value€52,500at your selected assumption of 80%
- External extension area
- 18 m²
- Added living area in this scenario
- 14.58 m²
- Living area after the extension
- 114.58 m²
- Current average value per m²
- €4,500
- Home value after extension in this scenario
- €502,500
- Total building budget entered
- €70,000
- Value effect minus building budget
- -€17,500
A negative difference means the calculated value effect is below the building budget. Enjoyment of your home, interest and other selling costs have not been valued here.
| Assumed share of value per m² | Value effect | Value after extension |
|---|---|---|
| 60% | €39,400 | €489,400 |
| 80% | €52,500 | €502,500 |
| 100% | €65,600 | €515,600 |
This is a scenario, not a valuation or guaranteed increase. The price per m² is home value divided by existing living area. The model multiplies this price by added living area and your chosen percentage. Market changes, garden loss and project-specific quality are not calculated separately.
How do we estimate the extra square metres?
The automatic estimate deducts two side walls and one front wall from a rectangular extension. No rear wall is deducted. This simplifies the connection to the house; the actual wall construction and a measurement report may produce different areas. A garden room or detached unit does not automatically count as living area of the house.
| Figure | Meaning |
|---|---|
| WOZ value per dwelling | An area average with a historic valuation date; not the value of your extension. |
| Property value per m² | A starting point based on your home’s market value and floor area; new space may be valued differently. |
| Land price per m² | The price of a specific plot with particular uses and rights; not established here. |

What would you like to create in Tilburg?
Compare six possibilities and see what to investigate for each. The figures for Tilburg above provide local context; suitability depends on your home, plot and intended use.
| What would you like to build? | What to consider at your home | Understand more before choosing. |
|---|---|---|
| Prefab extension | Have the existing rear wall, foundations and floor level surveyed. Draw the dining table, seating and walking routes within the internal dimensions to assess usable added space. For a terraced home, discuss access alongside or over the house. | Read more about Prefab extension |
| Living conservatory & garden room | First decide whether you want heated living space or a sheltered seasonal room. Then consider sun orientation, shade, ventilation and privacy. A glazed extension does not automatically qualify as living area because of its name; have its use and construction assessed. | Read more about Living conservatory & garden room |
| Family care home | Start with the resident: accessibility, bathroom, independence and the path to the main house. Have the intended use and rules assessed for the exact address. Include the length and capacity of water, electricity and drainage connections in the preparation. | Read more about Family care home |
| Detached garden building | Define whether the unit will be an office, hobby room, guest space or independent dwelling. This determines the services required and the assessment of its use. Measure the distance to the main house, the installation route and maintenance clearance around the unit. | Read more about Detached garden building |
| Two-storey extension | Space on two levels requires a coherent structural design. Have loads, foundations, stability, connections to the existing house and access to the upper level designed together. An existing extension is not automatically suitable to support another floor. | Read more about Two-storey extension |
| Prefab utility room | Use the actual dimensions of the washing machine, dryer, storage cupboards and doors. Discuss ventilation, noise, electricity, water and drainage at the required positions. In a compact utility room, wall thickness and awkward door swings can significantly affect usable space. | Read more about Prefab utility room |
