Description

The hip Groen Kwartier, café Kornèl, the always cosy Dageraadplaats... All close by, just like Antwerp city centre, Berchem Station and the arterial roads - a real top location in the city. At the same time, you live here very quietly.

This ground-floor flat was completely gutted and renovated in 2019 in collaboration with AE Studio architects, and their bold choices resulted in a particularly successful creation.

Romantic facade with a surprisingly original piece of paradise behind it. Immediately you notice the unique, hand-placed Spanish tile floor: atypical but super cool. Next, your attention is drawn to the windows of the cosy Japanese-style patio.

To the left is the lovely, cosy lounge on wooden floors. The gas fireplace invites you to an evening of relaxation or an atmospheric apero with friends. Behind it, the 2nd bedroom with separate toilet, currently furnished as an office/reception room.

Continue your way across the Spanish tiles to the back, and you arrive at the heart of the app: the fairy kitchen, executed by Atelier Dott. Very Instagrammable! After dining in the gorgeous dining area, move to the chill-out lounge for a digestive. Or would you rather move to the calming patio?

Behind the Japanese-inspired flutted glass wall, you'll find another separate toilet, beautiful bathroom with timeless Winckelman tiles and giga shower. Next to it, the master bedroom with large, custom-made dressing wardrobes.

Nice to know: in this small-scale building, fixed costs are low.

owner speaks out

Together with AE Studio, we transformed the whole building into a hip and at the same time very livable, laid-back flat. What I find particularly successful is the combination of hard and soft materials and how optimal use was made of all available light. They even made sure that daylight is reflected in the cooker hood. Lots of storage space and aesthetics were both very high on my list of priorities. That is why I am so happy with this successful project. It is a lovely place to live that feels very natural. Not to mention the prime location...
