Description

The property is located in a quiet, renovated street in the lively Deuzeld neighbourhood, surrounded by beautiful castle parks such as Cogelspark and Bouckenborgh. Everything you need is within walking distance: shops, schools, the pharmacy, the library and public transport. For a night out, there are cosy brasseries, restaurants and even a chip shop around the corner. The warm, engaged neighbours and the renovated streets with future charging points make the neighbourhood completely future-proof.

In 1910, the director of a sugar factory had five stately mansions built for himself and his children. This first house in the row exudes history and, since its renovation in 2018, is completely ready for the future. Behind the impressive façade with Corinthian columns, balconies and wrought-iron front door, you will find original mosaic floors, murals, mouldings and a stylish guest toilet.

Double doors lead into the living room with high ceilings, bay window, marble fireplace and wooden floor. The completely renovated kitchen with utility room/laundry room opens via folding windows onto the south-facing terrace and garden, where birds and neighbourhood cats provide lively company. The layout is practical: on the first floor, there are two spacious bedrooms (one of which is a master bedroom with a dressing room) and a luxuriously finished bathroom; on the second floor, there are three additional rooms, a hobby room and a second bathroom.

The house has a basement and is energy efficient thanks to solar panels, excellent insulation and a new roof (2023). With 295 m² of living space, a driveway and all amenities within walking distance, this mansion effortlessly combines grandeur, comfort and homely tranquillity.

owner speaks out

For us, this townhouse has always been a place where urban elegance and domestic tranquillity come together. It is light and spacious, but above all steeped in character. Each room seems to tell its own story. Upstairs, in the bright studio, we spent hours — sometimes immersed in work, sometimes lost in a hobby. In the kitchen, we looked out over the garden, where birds settled every day and occasionally a curious neighbourhood cat stopped by. Everywhere in the house, we discovered details that made us smile again and again: the ornate ceiling in the hall, the original chandeliers that spread warm light, the unusual tiles in the dining room. It is these elements that give the house its soul, that make you want to keep looking and feeling. Thanks to the good insulation and solar panels, it not only felt comfortable here, but also completely ready for the future, without ever losing any of its charm.
