Description

Stylish neighbourhood. Charming houses with front gardens from the first quarter of the 20th century, just on the border of Borgerhout and Deurne. Opposite Te Boelaer Park, with plenty of space for picnics, romping or jogging, a stone's throw from the natural swimming pond in Boekenberg Park. Shops, park school De Vlinderboom, public transport, nice cafés and fine brunch spots: all on your doorstep and yet close to the main roads and the centre of Antwerp. Highly desirable location!

The charming facade of this 1960 single-family house got some nice elements in art deco style. Inside the house, too, you'll find original stained-glass windows, millwork and a vintage terrazzo floor and ditto tiles in the sixties kitchen and bathroom. On the first floor, you'll find two bedrooms, one with an elegant balcony and handy built-in wardrobes. The spacious bathroom has room for two sinks, a bathtub and a shower. A third small room could rather serve as an office or dressing room.

From the large ground-floor living area, you step straight into the spacious city garden with its mature tree: the perfect place to tie your hammock and relax. Moreover, here you have hardly any view of your own little green island. Also handy: you can easily park your bicycle(s) in the front garden.

The property still needs a lot of work, but after renovation you will have a cosy home that you can furnish 100% according to your own taste, in a particularly lively, sought-after neighbourhood. Great purchase for a small family, single or couple with a sense of renovation and a touch of nostalgia.
