Description

In the beautiful, historic neighbourhood of Sint-Mariaburg, you can enjoy a peaceful lifestyle within walking distance of shops, public transport, schools and restaurants. The Boskapellei has a long history. Café Boschkapelletje and the public pump have disappeared, but the reconstructed ‘boskapelletje’ still stands.

The main building of this semi-detached property dates from the early 20th century. An impressive entrance hall with an authentic chequerboard-patterned floor. To the right is the door to the utterly charming living and dining room with parquet flooring, again featuring the original interior doors. The light-filled dining room with high ceilings and lovely garden views naturally invites you to enjoy lavish dinners and hours of cosy after-dinner conversation. A comfortable and practical kitchen with a guest toilet at the rear and a door leading to the ecological garden – a true secret garden, as privacy here is absolute. This showpiece features two small ponds and counts squirrels, frogs, bees, various birds and plenty of other wildlife among its regular visitors. Handy garden shed.

Through the kitchen, you return to the hall, with the staircase leading to the cellar and access to the later-built extension, featuring the garage door (a bicycle storage area) at the front and a studio/office.

Mezzanine with toilet. On the first floor, a beautiful library adorns the night hall. Further on are the study, which adjoins the bedroom, and an additional bedroom. Here too, there are magnificent high ceilings throughout, parquet flooring and shutters as window coverings. The landing on the second floor now serves as a dressing room. You’ll also find the bathroom and two more rooms here.
