Description

Residential setting. Easy access to Mechelen, Antwerp, Leuven and Brussels, just 1 km from the village centre and school. Nearby lies Hofstade Plage with the trendy beach bar Zuiderbad and an open-air cinema. Ideal for a picnic, walk or afternoon in the play forest.

Architectural home originally designed by Gerard Cools, restyled and extended by B-bis architects. In 2024, the current owners further refined the property with an ecological green roof, solar panels, new central-heating pipes, convectors, EV charging station, LED lighting and solar screens.

On the left, the original bungalow; on the right, the B-bis extension featuring mirrored walls reflecting the surrounding greenery. Materials such as wengé, end-grain parquet, cork, copper and afromosia veneer create strong seventies references.

Entrance hall with cloakroom. Living area with floating wengé cabinets, spectacular windows and a cosy fireplace. Authentic kitchen with vintage tiles and storage room. West-facing terrace and garden with no fewer than 185 trees and wisteria.

Bathroom with double washbasin and bathtub. Separate toilet. Two bedrooms, one with en-suite shower room and pleasant patio view. Spacious light-filled office with coffee corner and master bedroom in the B-bis extension overlooking the lush green roof. Integrated garage.

Good to know: a sought-after location for fashion and interior photo and film shoots, even Scandinavian nordic noir productions — offering an attractive additional income opportunity.
