Description

In the vibrant Zuid district, within walking distance of the KMSKA, restaurants, coffee bars and boutiques, lies this unique townhouse where authentic grandeur meets contemporary architecture.

High ceilings and generous proportions evoke the original 1890 townhouse, while the modernist façade dating from 1946 and the architectural renovation carried out in 2021 by KOVE design studio give the property a distinctly contemporary character. New windows, technical installations and piping, insulation and solar panels provide future-proof comfort. Inside, Douglas fir, concrete and natural stone come together in a sophisticated and harmonious interior.

The ground floor and basement form one generous open space of approximately 158 m². Currently used as an interior design studio, it is equally suited as an office, atelier, practice, showroom or studio. The city garden offers a peaceful green retreat.

The residential floors comprise a bright designer kitchen, spacious living and dining areas, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and several terraces. The generous master bedroom features built-in wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom.

The absolute highlight is the rooftop terrace, offering afternoon sun and sweeping views across the city, Marnixplaats and the sunset.

An exceptional property for living, working, creating and enjoying life — right in the heart of Antwerp Zuid.

The owners,

owner speaks out

We were immediately captivated by the unique character of this home: a contemporary, modern façade with large windows, combined with generous ceiling heights and the charm of a classic townhouse. A successful blend of contemporary architecture and authentic grandeur — the best of both worlds. Exactly what we were looking for! We renovated the house with great care and attention to detail, while also focusing on contemporary, future-proof living comfort. It will come as no surprise that we absolutely loved living here. Thanks to the large windows and the favourable orientation, the house enjoys beautiful natural light throughout the day. In the morning and around midday, the light mainly enters from the rear, while in the afternoon it moves towards the front. As a result, the atmosphere continuously changes throughout the day. One of our favourite spots? Without a doubt, the cosy and peaceful reading nook at the front, where the natural light and impressive ceiling height really come into their own. The rooftop terrace is another absolute highlight. We spent a great deal of time there: a wonderful place to relax, enjoy the sunshine or quietly wind down at the end of the day.
