Käerjeng Property for Sale: Bascharage and Villages Near the Border

Käerjeng includes Bascharage, a retail and service town known for its shopping streets, together with Clemency, Fingig, Hautcharage and Linger. Prices are lower than around the capital because the commute is longer, roughly 20 to 30 minutes by car to Luxembourg City in normal traffic. Its position near the Belgian and French borders means cross-border workers, fuel tourism and shoppers visit the area.

Buyers include families priced out of the city and frontaliers looking for a base on the Luxembourg side.

Overseas buyers face no blanket prohibition here. The deed is drawn up by a notary, who also collects the registration and transcription duties, and you should expect these to add a few percent on top of the price. A newly built home sold off plan can attract reduced VAT if it will be your main residence. Banks tend to lend roughly four-fifths of the value to residents and less to buyers living abroad.

Luxembourg City is the large neighbour to the north-east. Esch-sur-Alzette, the second city, lies to the south-east. Mersch is in the centre of the country, further north, so compare it as a different market.
