In the shadow of Saint Lawrence Church, at the heart of the sought-after Markgrave district – a neighbourhood loved by both residents and visitors. Fresh artisan bread at Domestic, a relaxing stroll through Hof Van Leysen, Thursday spaghetti nights at Café Kamiel or dinner at Cobra House: everything is within easy reach.
This neoclassical townhouse was commissioned in 1912 by Mr. Bollen and designed by architect A. Stas. Today, it seamlessly combines authentic grandeur with contemporary comfort.
The elegant white-painted façade with black accents immediately reveals the home's distinctive character. A stylish entrance hall with marble finishes, soaring ceilings and original mouldings sets the tone. The bright kitchen, located on the split level (+0.5), benefits from generous ceiling heights and large windows, offering abundant natural light without compromising privacy. The spacious basement, featuring beautiful original tiled floors, provides endless possibilities as a gym, studio, hobby room or additional storage.
On the first floor, the bright living area with its charming bay window enjoys an exceptional sense of space thanks to the large windows. This versatile floor can easily accommodate a lounge, dining room or elegant home office. The mezzanine level features a bathroom with walk-in shower and toilet. The second floor hosts the spacious master bedroom with a charming balcony and an en-suite dressing room. Half a level higher is a second bathroom with bathtub. Under the roof are two additional full-sized bedrooms, one of which opens onto a panoramic roof terrace – a truly exceptional place to enjoy the sweeping views of Antwerp's skyline in complete tranquillity.
A charming home in every sense of the word.
