Description

This is far from your average townhouse. Instead, it is an exceptionally charming 1931 interwar home, filled with beautifully preserved original features that immediately capture your attention. Its distinctive façade with an elegant bay window sets the tone, while the authentic entrance hall offers a warm welcome and introduces the unique character found throughout the home. Natural stone fireplaces, the original staircase, stunning mosaic and terrazzo floors, and high ceilings… Here, modern comfort blends seamlessly with the property's original architecture.

The ground floor features a bright living area consisting of two interconnected reception rooms, a spacious dining room, a contemporary kitchen, a guest toilet, and a generous private city courtyard. A practical cellar provides additional storage space.

On the first floor, you will find two bedrooms and the first bathroom, complete with a large walk-in shower and toilet.

The second floor offers two more exceptionally spacious bedrooms with beautifully restored original wooden plank floors, as well as a second bathroom featuring a bathtub, washbasin, and charming retro-style floor tiles.

The surprisingly spacious attic level on the third floor is the true highlight of the property. With its custom-built cabinetry, robust exposed brick wall, and abundance of space, this versatile floor is perfectly suited as a playroom, hobby room, generous home office, or additional living area.

Would you like to enjoy peaceful living while being just a short walk from the Grand Market Square of Tienen? This property offers exactly that. Shops, restaurants, schools, and the railway station are all within walking distance, providing the perfect combination of tranquillity, convenience, and everyday comfort.

owner speaks out

We love this home for its abundance of natural daylight, its cheerful accents, and its characterful materials. Its location is just as appealing: the town centre is within walking distance, yet once you're inside, you almost forget you're living in the heart of the city.
