Description

This authentic townhouse with modern twist is located in the Macharius-Heirnis neighbourhood. A nice neighbourhood with a multicultural and cosmopolitan mix of new and old inhabitants of Ghent. Located in the city centre, close to the Dampoort railway station with many restaurants and shops within walking distance. At the same time, the house is easy to reach by car and there is always a parking space nearby.

At the back, the city garden borders the Rommelwaterpark, a cosy park with playground, football pitch and petanque court. The park is surrounded by cosy city gardens, a hidden green lung in the city! Extra handy: the property has an indoor bike shed that you reach via the garden at the back. You can store about 6 bikes in it.

The house has 5 floors. The basement was transformed into a functional space connected to the ground floor thanks to the large glass extension with open staircase. The new DOVY kitchen (2019) was fitted with the latest appliances and finished with a cool southern tiled floor. A cosy place to cook with a view of the city garden and park trees. Also handy is the adjoining large storage and laundry room.

You enter through the hall with checkerboard-patterned tile. The high ceiling with beautiful mouldings and the authentic wooden floor immediately add to the charm of the house. The glass extension draws in lots of light and adds a modern touch. The cosy reading room and TV room are connected by a ceiling-high door.

On the 1st floor you will find one bedroom and a spacious bathroom with large walk-in shower, toilet and modern bathroom unit with double washbasin. On the 2nd floor are two bedrooms, which can be converted into one large master bedroom if desired. On the top (3rd) floor, in the ridge of the roof, the attic was converted into a fourth bedroom with mezzanine. There is also a separate (storage) attic room.

Ideal combination of authentic charm, modern luxury and a sublime location.

Location

Herenwoning met toegang tot Rommelwaterpark
We have been very happy here for over 30 years and have seen the neighbourhood grow and prosper.
The owners, Henk and Tania,

owner speaks out

Our three sons grew up in the middle of the city and yet, thanks to the location of our home, they could play carefree in the park behind our house. Digging in the sandpit, romping on climbing ropes, playing football and cycling... It could all be done safely and in the greenery.
The park behind and the beautiful authentic elements of the house made us fall for this 'house with a soul' like a log at the time.

We have been very happy here for more than thirty years and have seen the neighbourhood grow and flourish.The birdsong when getting up, the cosy chats with neighbours in the park, the magisterial view from the living areas, the authentic plank floors... We will miss it all tremendously!
