Peace and quiet in the middle of the city? It exists! The sunny, green city courtyard and back façade completely overgrown with ivy, lots of sun and light in the house, the super-charming façade with its colourful tiles and beautiful windows and so many other, fun, authentic elements... We were immediately sold and felt instantly at home here!
We are also going to miss the neighbourhood immensely: not only do we have super nice neighbours next to and about us, everyone knows each other here. The neighbourhood feels a bit like Paris in Antwerp city centre and everything is so close. Pull open the door and you're immediately at your favourite shop or at the supermarket, on the cosy shopping - strolling streets, tasty bakeries, freshers, the weekly market or on the Scheldt... Bliss. Plus, the tastiest fries can be found just down the street!
Pull the door shut behind you and you're back in your wonderfully peaceful, green and bright cocoon.
The house is also hugely flexible. Thanks to the fairly large rooms, the house lends itself to a wide variety of uses, growing with the stage of life you are in. In the nine years we lived here, we first had the bedroom and dressing room on the top floor and office at +1, and the previous owners lived here with three children, so you see....
