Description

App in a merchant's house built by cloth merchant Corneel Ysenbouts in 1551.

Located in Venusstraat between the historic core and the island, within walking distance of shops, public transport, the Meir and the Scheldt.

We enter the building through a surprising and beautiful 18th-century patio with a glass canopy transformed into a winter garden with lovely exotic plants.

The app was renovated in 2011. The house exudes warmth and luxury. The rooms are pleasantly large. The entrance is stately and impressive. Every room exudes history. The pleasant terrace overlooks the hidden courtyard garden. You enjoy 100% peace and quiet in the middle of the city.

Layout: entrance hall, living spaces on the right: living room with adjoining terrace, dining room, kkn, sleeping quarters on the left: master bedroom, separate corridor leading to the other three bedrooms, bdk and WC. Incl cellars. One basement is 100 square metres, a second basement has an opp of 10 square metres.

Unique place for luxury city sparrows with a love of history.

The owner rents a parking around the corner. This contract can be taken over.

The courtyard garden seems like a secret oasis in the middle of the city.
Jan, the owner,

owner speaks out

"This building is an absolute historical gem. When friends come over, they are amazed by the richness, silence and greenery hidden behind the facade of this merchant's house. The courtyard garden seems like a secret oasis in the middle of the city. The tropical entrance hall takes you back to days gone by.

In the flat itself, we took care of the electricity and the kitchen. In addition, the flat was completely painted.

Given that I work on the Eilandje, this location is perfect for us! We are between the city centre and the MAS. The quality butcher on the Paardenmarkt is our weekly friend. On Saturdays you can find the best of everything here: delicious fruit, pistolets and delicious charcuterie. And for big purchases we go to Albert Heijn on Hessenplein, also behind the corner.

We rent a car parking space in the street. This rental can be taken over by the new owner without any problem. And if you need a second place, there are plenty of places for rent or sale nearby.
