Description

Living on Antwerp’s iconic Grote Markt while enjoying peace and quiet at home – it’s a rare privilege. But here, it’s entirely possible: just a hundred metres from the Town Hall and Cathedral, and close to the River Scheldt.

Tucked away at the quiet rear side of ‘Den Kemel’, a medieval merchant’s house where legendary Antwerp figures once strolled beneath the stepped gable – a place steeped in history! The lift brings you directly into this apartment, where the sleek interior is finished to perfection, with thoughtful details throughout: invisible doors, built-in closets, continuous parquet flooring, ventilation and central vacuum systems, alarm… Luxurious living at its finest.

The entrance hall offers ample built-in storage and a videophone. The living area feels bright and open, with windows on both sides and warm parquet flooring uniting the space. Safety comes first – all windows are fitted with protective railings. The elegant Eggersmann kitchen with a large island and induction hob invites you to cook and enjoy together, while the adjoining dining area is made for long, leisurely meals. The living room with gas fireplace opens onto a lovely, sunny southwest-facing terrace.

The layout is also well thought out, with clearly separated living and sleeping areas. In the quiet sleeping section, you’ll find three peaceful bedrooms, two of which have en suite bathrooms – one with a shower, the other with both a bath and a shower, all finished in the same high-quality, timeless style.

Optional for purchase: two parking spaces and a spacious cellar beneath the historic vaults.

Come and see for yourself just how peaceful life on the Grote Markt can be!

owner speaks out

Our search for the most beautiful apartment in the heart of Antwerp ended the moment we stepped inside. After parking the car in the underground garage and taking the elevator that brought us directly into the apartment, we just knew: this is the one!
Aside from being an incredibly beautiful historic building (the basement alone is a true marvel!), we were delighted by the unique natural light and the stunning spatial layout of the apartment.
The historic property has been completely renovated and fitted with high-quality materials.
And here, you’re truly in the center of the center, yet inside the apartment it’s surprisingly peaceful, with no noise disturbance at all.
