Description

Close to the city, Antwerp Expo, the Singel, public transport and approach roads. Hockey and rugby club on the doorstep. Park Den Brandt, Nachtegalenpark, Middelheim within cycling distance.

The iconic facade of this corner building in post-war modernism immediately stands out in the street scene. The small-scale block was designed in 1953 by arch. Karel Van Riel.

A wide stairwell with charming checkerboard pattern and semicircular spiral staircase lead you to the fantastic, large 190 m2 flat on the 2nd and top floor with stunning views of greenery.

Spacious entrance hall. Authentic herringbone parquet flooring throughout. The large, slightly arched windows in the living area are the star of the party. They offer a unique view of greenery and draw light in optimally. Cosy fireplace.

Attractive library space (or office, bedroom, playroom or TV room...). Then the 1st large bedroom with access to authentic bathroom with bath, shower and toilet. Note the original windows! Attached to the bedroom: nice little indoor terrace with open views. Good book, cup of coffee... Enjoy.

On the other wing of the apartment is the amazing, orange retro kitchen with access to the 2nd terrace with again lots of sun. Who doesn't get happy here? Handy utility room or laundry room. Finally, 2 spacious bedrooms and a 2nd bathroom.

Storage room. Sunny, communal garden. Garage box included.

The flat oozes nostalgia and has baking character. Plenty of room for all your plans! After renovation, you can turn it into a place after your own heart.

Do you love architecture with lots of character and want to get your hands dirty? Then this is your chance to transform a unique flat into your dream place. Already a top property, so it can only get even better.

owner speaks out

This is a blissful place to live. Its super-strategic location and view of greenery immediately caught our attention. The flat is bursting with character, such as the gorgeous rounded windows, invariably the eye-catcher with our guests. And we have so much space here. You can perfectly live here together as a family, while everyone keeps their own privacy without a problem.
