Description

The city is your backyard in this charming, traffic-calmed street in the heart of Antwerp. The street connects the Botanique with Nationalestraat, the epicentre of Antwerp’s fashion scene in the much-loved Sint-Andries neighbourhood. Exceptionally quiet yet close to everything – it really is possible.

This impressive neo-Gothic building with a stepped gable once housed the primary school for girls of the Sint-Andries parish. Architect François Baeckelmans designed the building in 1880, and in 2002 it was transformed into a complex of stylish apartments.

Enter through the entrance hall and make your way all the way to the rear, where this ground-floor apartment with a spacious loft feel awaits. You step straight into the living area. Thanks to the wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows, the connection with the generous terrace is ever-present, while natural light floods the space. Authentic features, such as the beautiful wooden beams, create a striking combination with the raw concrete. The modern open-plan kitchen has everything you need, with space for a large dining table alongside it. A second terrace provides additional light and fresh air.

At the rear are three bedrooms, one of which has a walk-in dressing room. Two bedrooms open onto the main terrace; the third, smaller bedroom opens onto the additional second terrace. The practical bathroom features a spacious walk-in shower and double washbasin, as well as a second toilet. There is also a separate utility room for the washing machine and a cellar.

Good to know: if desired, the rental parking space can be taken over – a major bonus in the city!
