Description

In Berchem intra-muros, near the sites of Brewery De Koninck, PAKT, the Albert and Harmonie Park, hotspots, supermarkets, public transport, ring bike path and swimming pool Wezenberg. Right in the centre of Antwerp and on the arterial roads.

This building stands out in the street! Clients of Résidence Generaal Leman, father and son Amelinckx, built a warehouse for their wholesale butter and eggs business at the bottom of the building. Architect Benoit J. Dupont specialised in designing 'apartment buildings of high standing' in moderately progressive architecture with elements of art deco and modernism.

The beautiful stairwell, lift doors and banisters look like they were plucked straight out of a French film. Spacious flat of 127 m2, at the back of the building, so very quiet. Playful checkerboard pattern flooring in the hallway. Immediately to the right is the modern kitchen with handleless cupboards, lots of storage space, cosy breakfast corner and SMEG appliances.

In the living area: herringbone parquet in character, rounded bay window, charming doors - all authentic, just like the building itself. Salon and dining room form one open space, yet are separated by the round arches.

The 2 spacious bedrooms in stylish white are both connected to the contemporary bathroom, with shower, toilet and washbasin.

The covered winter terrace is a nice extra. Windows open and fully enjoy the evening sun - blissful.

The flat received a makeover in 2010 - new kitchen, bathroom, electricity,... with a lot of respect for the original elements.

Great combination of authentic and contemporary in a smart location, close to the city and arterial roads.

To be purchased separately: an easily accessible car place @ €25,000. An irresistible trump card!

owner speaks out

Reading a book on the sofa, music playing in the background, while the sunlight enters the living space... There's no better feeling. Even in the bedrooms, the sun can shine in so much that I have to sit - or lie down. Our secret hide-out is the winter terrace. A blissful hidden spot that I like to fill with plants, and then let the evening sun come in.... No better place to unwind than here. The location is also ideal for us. On foot to the pool or the shop, by tram into town, right on the motorway... This place has it all.
