Description

close to the paardenmarkt, city centre and Eilandje. Within walking distance of Central Station, the renovated Leien and even closer to home: a terrace on the cosy, student-like Ossenmarkt.

This spacious town house dates from the 1st half of the 19th century. This building, with a gable width of no less than 8 metres, was built around 1840. All floors are currently furnished as flats, of which the ground-floor app is currently rented out. On each floor, you will find enormous space and potential. Moreover, the original elements were well preserved.

As soon as you enter the imposing entrance hall, you find that authentic atmosphere of a classic town house: high ceilings, marble fireplaces, beautiful ceiling work, wooden floors and original wooden doors, fantastic mosaic and tile floors and a cosy little city garden. Upstairs, you will find a charming flat on each floor, each with bathroom, kitchen, bedroom and living space. Between the 2nd and 3rd floor, a pleasant surprise awaits you: a roof terrace. An ideal spot for a drink and a good book.

Central heating (incl. pipes and appliances) and roof were recently completely renewed. Bathrooms, kitchens, etc are in need of a makeover. That still leaves a lot of leeway to use the existing potential: do you turn it into a large family home, go for co-housing, want to rent it out or opt for a live-work combination? All options are still open here.

We love the neighbourhood so much that our new flat is less than 200 metres away.
Agnes and Jan, the owners

owner speaks out

We lived here for almost 40 years. We always rented out part of the house to acquaintances or friends. Over the years, we became tremendously attached to this unique neighbourhood. The street is quiet, right on the edge of the bustling student area, and the 'fashionable' Eilandje is just around the corner. Best of both worlds, it's called. In fact, we love the neighbourhood so much that our new flat is less than 200 metres away. For us, an unforgettable chapter is closing here. Now it is time for a new owner; hopefully they will write a nice sequel to the story of this special house.
