Description

Between Tabakvest and Frankrijklei, with the real city centre, Vogeltjesmarkt, theatre district and city park nearby, as well as Central Station, arterial roads and supermarkets (Natuurwinkel, Delhaize, Jumbo). More central in Antwerp is almost impossible!

Handsome complex in post-war modernism from 1961, commissioned by Et. De Vel Brothers. This is the only private apartment building left by architect Renaat Braem, absolute pioneer of Belgian modernism. With only one flat per floor, light, quiet and space are guaranteed here. Façade with clean, repetitive infill, a grid of tumbled windows and snow-white glass valley sandwich panels. Stylised handles, wave-shaped letterboxes, steel staircases and paintwork in the corridor - Braems' signature can be found everywhere, undoubtedly worth a good dose of Antwerp chauvinism!

On the 3rd and top floor is this sun-drenched two-bedroom flat with the still original built-in cupboards. Large entrance hall with glass wall to the very bright, 10-metre-wide living space, covering the entire street side of the building. Timeless, open-plan kitchen.

At the back: bathroom, 2 bedrooms, storage room with washing machine connection (or 2nd bathroom). The cool, vintage terrace (SE) can be accessed from the bedrooms. The passage can perfectly serve as an office. Basement storage. Rental parking at Innovation ev. to take over. Finally, the 2015 windows and 2022 high-efficiency boiler, together with the total renovation of 2007, result in a favourable EPC B.
