Description

This elegant apartment building in Art Deco style is located in the quiet Expo district, close to the city, shops, public transport and all arterial roads, fast through the Kennedy tunnel or on the A12 towards Brussels. By bike or on foot, you'll soon be in the large parks of Den Brandt, Middelheim and Nachtegalenpark, as well as the Saturday market, brewery de Koninck, Wezenberg swimming pool, deSingel and Antwerp-South station.

The small-scale building was commissioned around 1935 by Cyriel Borghgraef, a dentist from Hoboken. Architect Frans Cools was responsible for the stylish design. Separate entrance hall. The beautiful herringbone parquet is reflected in the cosy living area, where lounge and dining room seamlessly blend into one another - a delightful, boutique hotel-like setting for all your cosy, winter dinners.

The beautiful art-decor window in the wall also returns in the spacious master bedroom. The 2nd room is currently used as an office, but could also serve perfectly as a 2nd bedroom or guest room. The bathroom is perfectly usable, but those who want to can still put their own stamp on it.

Forget the winter atmosphere and step into the summer vibes to the kitchen, where warm-brown cabinets and funky green tiles create a Mediterranean ambience. Delightful cooking thanks to quality appliances (oven, Miele microwave, Smeg fridge, cooker, dishwasher), followed by the sun-drenched dining room with garden view: blissful for breakfast or lunch. De-stressing, romping, barbecuing or a dog? No problem in this 100 m2 garden.

Super-charming Art Deco flat with a delightful garden, where you can experience the seasons to the full.

owner speaks out

The contrast between the open, light-filled kitchen and cosy living room with authentic elements ensures that you will find a suitable setting for every moment here. Cosy and intimate dining in the dining room, or sunny brunch in the garden room? The choice is yours... That's what makes this apartment such a versatile place.

We cherish the many sunny moments in the garden, where you'll find us from the earliest spring to late autumn - whether with a splash pool, firepit or lounger.... The kitchen is perfect for lavish hosts or bon vivants who like to invite friends or family over for aperos and dinners, with plenty of storage space and everything within easy reach - I'm sure our friends and family will miss it here too. Our traditional, super cosy Christmas dinner is legendary by now, and the green Christmas tree then stands out beautifully against the soft pink walls. At the back, you are then back in tune with nature. Here you literally have front row tickets to every seasonal change.
