Description

Green and quiet at the back of an old fire station, right in the middle of the lively city. The historic centre, Conscienceplein, the Meir, student district... Everything within easy reach. The redevelopment of this neighbourhood with 'project Stadslus' will make everything even more attractive: wider pavements, cycle path and more greenery.

You walk through the large, stylish gate to the quiet rear of the site, where you will find this stylish flat.

Through the cosy entrance hall, you step into the sun-drenched living space with open kkn. Stylish oak parquet flooring, ceilings no less than 4.4 metres high (!) and windows everywhere. You cook with a view of the Carolus Borromeus church, whose interior and decoration were designed by none other than P.P. Rubens himself. The kitchen itself is also a masterpiece: Boretti gas cooker with oven, Quooker, wine cooler,...

Above part of the living space, a mezzanine was created, ideal as office space and an extra sleeping area that can be closed off with a tasteful curtain.

The bedroom is super quiet at the back, overlooking the lush green city garden. This south-facing city oasis of no less than 50m2 is a real relief to come home to. You can also relax in the bathroom with its luxurious whirlpool bath and large rain shower. Here too, every nook and cranny has been optimised without compromising on comfort and style.

Separate storage room with washing machine and spacious basement. Purchase of furniture is negotiable.
Underground parking space can be purchased @ 35,000 euros.

owner speaks out

Together with my grandfather, who was an architect, we furnished the apartment. We looked for an optimal balance between a smart, practical layout and a modern look with a focus on cosy and homely. We are very happy with the result of his latest project! When my mum comes from the Netherlands, she sleeps in the super handy makeshift guest room on the mezzanine. It's also always nice for friends to be able to stay for a night. Furthermore, we enjoy our garden every day. Just being able to look at it from the bedroom is so nice. A really lovely piece of peaceful green in the middle of the city. Finally, it is also a great luxury that we never have to look for a parking space.
