Description

This sought-after residential prime neighbourhood is close to Hof Van Leysen, the city centre and many parks, as well as to the approach roads.

The stylish façade and front garden with a fence in elegant wrought iron set the tone for this eclectic corner house, designed by arch. Karel Matthijs. The many authentic elements combined with the surprisingly original colour palette, chosen by the owners, make this beautifully preserved historic gem an unseen feast for the eyes.

The staircase in the entrance hall leads to the wonderfully lavish ground floor with sublime kitchen and ditto cooker, spacious dining room and cosy reading corner with library. A porte fenêtre provides access to the city courtyard. The light here is immense thanks to the windows over the entire width of the facade (approx. 12m).

From the ground floor you can also access the multifunctional basement - now an extremely charming, tastefully decorated delicatessen, with separate entrance in Bosmanslei - and handy storage/laundry room.

Stairs then lead via a guest toilet (mezzanine) to the magnificent 1st floor with TV corner, living room and spacious office. The skylight provides a connection to the ground floor.

Soothing colours in the bedroom and bathroom areas: on the 2nd mezzanine floor a good-sized shower room and on the 2nd floor the spacious master bedroom with en suite bathroom and large dressing room. On the 3rd floor are the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms, also with handsome en suite bathrooms.
