Description

Between Antwerp city centre and Zurenborg is a village hidden in the city: the Green Quarter, with PAKT, coffee bar, shops and fitness, close to Berchem station and approach roads. Two more attractions: restaurant The Jane and hotel-restaurant-wellness concept August.

In the old officers' chapel of the Military Hospital, the owners gave this casco duplex a thorough total renovation in 2014. History was restored - authenticity combined with contemporary comfort. The result: a characterful, loft-style duplex.

At +1: sun-drenched, open-plan living space on parquet with high ceilings and large windows. Cosy sitting room and dining area, separated from the kitchen by the original columns. The long kitchen island with Falcon gas cooker is a great place to enjoy a drink, while two authentic crockery cupboards provide a warm, rustic touch. Handy storage room with washing & drying connection.

Another nod to the past: on the landing, you can still see the original brick wall and floor through the glass. The recovered steel sliding door now leads to the mortex bathroom with sink, bath and walk-in shower. Steel staircase to the lower floor, with office or playroom, two bedrooms and dressing room on parquet, with a pleasantly stable temperature all year round.

Extra comfort thanks to underfloor heating, air conditioning, ventilation type D, home automation, videophone and alarm. Installation of solar panels (partial formula) already approved by the VME.
Low common costs.
Takeover of Lange Leemstraat car park possible.

Characterfully renovated, ready-to-use base for real city birds.

Groen Kwartier: lofty duplex in historisch gebouw
Living in the Green Quarter is incredibly relaxed: nice and close to Antwerp's city centre, but still quiet and green.
The owners,

owner speaks out

Here the world is at your feet: Berchem station, car sharing, shared bikes, walking... From here you can see the world. At the same time, living in the Green Quarter is incredibly relaxed: nice and close to Antwerp's city centre, but still quiet and green. And best of all: you don't have to maintain a garden here, that's done for you.
Our living kitchen guarantees our daily dose of happiness: the magnificent view over the Green Quarterfrom behind the cooking fire and at the same time that connection with the loft - a bliss for both chef and guests. When we head out the door, it's hard to choose with so many delicious local food spots nearby: Bazaar, Bar Vert, Baker Aldo, Baroloco di Pepe or pretty bouquets at Bloem?Bloem! Of course, there's always something to do on the Pakt site too, from lunch and coffee addresses to fitness club Crossfit Antwerp.
Our loft has fantastic New York vibes - perfect for entertaining, but also for unwinding amid the hustle and bustle of the city. A unique place to live both inside and out, but with our two young, growing kids, it's time for us to find a new home.
