Description

In a quiet residential area in Mariaburg, within walking distance of shops, public transport, schools and restaurants.

Architect Pierre Van Rompaey designed this villa in 1949 for himself and his family. Its organic shape immediately shows that this is an absolutely unique property. The rear consists of a high glass wall, on the street side is a thatched pent roof that ends low to the ground. A dining area was added in 1964 and a circular studio was added on the street side in 1974.

On entering, the tall entrance door stands out, with window in a playful shape. In the entrance hall, light streams in through the skylight. To the left are the guest toilet with cloakroom and access to the kitchen. From the dining area, you overlook the beautiful garden with mature trees.

The very spacious living room with concrete cast floor is bathed in light thanks to the huge windows. Smaller windows in organic shapes allow the sun to come in in the evening too. The living room is blissful thanks to the gas fireplace, surround music system and recessed lighting. Via the living room, you walk through to a large bedroom with study and en-suite bathroom, with sauna. Bliss!

The central spiral staircase takes you to the 1st floor, with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. On the 2nd floor is another bedroom, with sink and toilet.

Besides the house's handsome architecture, the garden is also a great asset. As are the recently installed heat pumps. There are also a basement, garage and garden house.

owner speaks out

When we were able to buy this unique property in 2000, straight from the architect's hands, we did not hesitate for long. The ‘slide off’ is what local residents call our house, referring to the sublime thatched gable roof.

The spacious, beautiful living space is the masterpiece of the house. In the modernisation works, we always took the architect's spirit into account. As a result, the unique character of the property is perfectly preserved and ready for the next owners.

Thanks to the multifunctionality of the house, our 3 sons were able to have a wonderful childhood here. There is a lovely garden for romping, gardening, bbq'ing and so on. Not only a favourite of ours, but also of many squirrels and birds.
