Description

Peace and quiet, in the heart of Duffel: school next door, close to the market, library, cultural centre, Cinema Plaza, the Nete and cycle path. Ideal base for trips to Antwerp, Brussels and Mechelen.

This unique house - formerly 2 buildings - shows a surprising feat of architecture, finished to perfection with beautiful materials.

On the ground floor, everything is connected and round shapes create a fine, organic flow. The central element hides some useful spaces: the 1st staircase, storage space and toilet. On one side the kitchen, on the other an alcove with office space. Living area with cosy dining area and steps up to the sitting area with rounded window in steel and beautiful garden view. Magnificent wooden rear facade in thermowood.

First floor: large bedroom and cosy TV or reading area. Original bathroom with bath, washbasin and toilet. Separate laundry room.

Back downstairs on the right: cosy room with wood-burning stove and desk, sas with 2nd staircase and handsome 2nd bathroom. The wall in transparent Rodeca provides light and separates the space from the multifunctional area, to be used as a garage, sports or party room (open back and continuous polished concrete floor). The staircase, encased in wooden built-in cupboards, leads to the other 1st floor with small hallway and 2 cool bedrooms, separated by large built-in wooden cupboards.

The icing on the cake? The large garden with terrace, lovely swimming pond and large fire pit with lounge area at the back, where you enjoy the evening sun.

Incredibly nice, having an ice cream after school with your feet in the pond or catching up with friends at the fire pit.
The owners,

owner speaks out

You find so many nice places here, very close by. There is the slow road to Lier, ideal for taking the kids for a walk, or the Moriaubos, a small, child-friendly forest, the Mosterpod-Goorbosbeek valley and Kasteel Roosendael with a nice tavern, Tivoli, Planckendael and playgrounds Eusterke and Ostrichnest. It is also a great luxury to have schools, after-school care and even hobbies so close to home. What we love about the house? The fun flow and open-plan approach. At the same time, everyone finds their own separate spot when there is a need for some privacy. Of course, the garden is also a fantastic asset! Incredibly nice, after school with your feet in the pond eating ice cream or romping around or catching up with friends at the fire pit. Thanks to the large windows, we fully enjoy all the greenery and life in the garden even in winter. A view that never gets boring.
