Description

This app is on the fourth floor of a corner Art Deco-style building designed by arch. Jan De Vroey from 1930. On the first floor of the complex you can enjoy your daily cup of coffee at breakfast store Blanc Cassé and the trendy Art Bar Steven Kovrigin is ideal for an afternoon apero.

Stepping inside this app means stepping into pure charm. This app is a real treat for the eyes. To the left you enter the large, bright living space on gorgeous herringbone parquet, with typical Art Deco arches and doors, original radiators, ... The wooden floors were completely refinished in 2016 so they can last for many years to come.

The well-equipped kitchen with gas stove and double sink was also renewed in 2016. Adjacent you will find the cozy dining area. Lovely to have an extensive breakfast here or enjoy a dinner with friends. From the kitchen you get to a small but cozy balcony, perfect as a supercosy reading corner or for a lush herb garden. Across from the kitchen is the bathroom. This one is in need of renovation so you can still completely customize it. Roof and front of the building have already been insulated. The electricity was renewed in 2012, the boiler in 2016.

The hallway leads you to the surprisingly spacious rear of the app: there you will find the first bedroom. It currently serves as an office, but could also serve as a guest, baby or hobby room. At the end of the corridor you will find 3 bedrooms, all very spacious and bright, on parquet flooring and again with lots of charm.

When you enter here, you immediately notice how much peace this app radiates. Where outside you immediately find yourself in the bustle of the city, inside the building you find calm and relief. A bliss in the heart of the city.

This property is available from July 2019.

Location

Art deco in een zee van licht en ruimte
We fell like a log for the charm and we stayed for the light and space
The owners, Ellen and Li,

owner speaks out

Seven years ago we were actually looking for a house, but when we moved in here it was love at first sight. We fell like a log for the charm and we stayed for the light and space. It's so big here that even with 2 kids, we still have a room in surplus. We now use that as an office.

The location is also perfect: the city center at 5' cycling, streetcar and Vélo stations in front of the door and by car you are right on all the approach roads. Cozy coffee bars, fitness, original stores ánd two parks just steps from our front door: the Harmoniepark and the Stadspark.
We have enjoyed living here immensely."
