What is special about the property market in Herzogswalde?

The scattered settlement pattern combined with good accessibility. With 731 residents and 290 addresses, Herzogswalde is the fourth largest district of the town of Wilsdruff, which lies 14.8 kilometres west of central Dresden. The price zone for the near countryside around Dresden applies, at €2,200 to €2,900 per square metre for houses. The position within the range is decided by the condition survey on site.

Location profile: fourth largest district in the western town area

Wilsdruff lies 14.8 kilometres west of central Dresden. Herzogswalde is one of the town's western districts, in the direction of Nossen.

The 2022 census supplies building values for only 59 percent of the grid cells here. That does not apply to the population and address counts, both of which are recorded in full.

In practice that means owner-occupancy, vacancy and pre-war share cannot be stated reliably for this district. Anyone quoting a figure to two decimal places nonetheless has estimated it.

What I observe here: it is precisely in districts like this that the largest valuation errors arise, because portals apply the town figure. With a property older or younger than the town average, that goes wrong in both directions.

Market data: price ranges and structure

  • Houses: €2,200–2,900/sqm
  • Apartments: €1,800–2,500/sqm
  • Building plots: €130–240/sqm

This is the price zone for the near countryside around Dresden as of 2026, and it applies to the district as it does to the town as a whole.

The Wilsdruff town figures serve as a frame: 3,466 residential buildings, 73.9 percent owner-occupancy, 2.2 percent vacancy, 35.4 percent pre-war share. For Herzogswalde itself only the price zone is certain among these.

Typical properties in Herzogswalde

Village houses and farmsteads. In a district of this size and position, the defining type, mostly with large plots.

Post-war and GDR-era detached houses. The second large block, with the usual modernisation needs on heating and windows.

New builds of recent decades. The most straightforward stock, because building services and energy figures are documented.

Building plots. At €130 to €240 per square metre and at this distance from Dresden, a sale item in their own right.

Who buys in Herzogswalde?

Dresden families. They compare with the western districts and accept the drive in exchange for plot size.

Buyers from the direction of Nossen and Freiberg. They come from the opposite direction and know the scattered settlements.

Owner-occupiers doing their own work. For the older farmsteads, the group that carries the market.

Buyers needing outbuildings. Workshop, storage, livestock. For them the area outside the house is what counts.

How is the housing stock in Herzogswalde structured?

Selling here means selling into a small stock. For a district of this size the census only reports part of the building characteristics, so this profile deliberately shows less than the municipality pages do:

Frequently asked questions

How reliable are the census figures for Herzogswalde?
Only to a limited extent. The 2022 census supplies building values for just 59 percent of the grid cells in Herzogswalde, because small cells are left without a value on confidentiality grounds. The population count of 731 and the address count of 290 are complete. Owner-occupancy, vacancy and build age therefore cannot be quantified seriously for this district.
How large is Herzogswalde compared with the other Wilsdruff districts?
The fourth largest. By population, Kesselsdorf with 3,359, Grumbach with 1,853 and Mohorn with 1,142 come ahead of Herzogswalde with 731. Then follow Braunsdorf with 626, Kleinopitz with 544, Kaufbach with 504 and Limbach with 227. By address points Herzogswalde also ranks fourth with 290, behind Kesselsdorf, Grumbach and Mohorn.
What is a house in Herzogswalde worth?
The price zone for the near countryside around Dresden applies: €2,200 to €2,900 per square metre for houses and €130 to €240 for building plots. There is no separate range for the district, and the census figures are only partly available here. Placing a property therefore comes from build year, condition and plot, not from district statistics.
What matters most when selling in Herzogswalde?
The survey on site. Where the official statistics fail for the district, build year, the condition of roof and building services, and plot size carry the whole valuation. The Wilsdruff town figures of 73.9 percent owner-occupancy, 2.2 percent vacancy and 35.4 percent pre-war share serve as a frame, but they do not replace the site visit.
