Description

In rural Sinaai, near Sint-Niklaas, 'de Dries' is the calling card. This green, bustling square bordered by stately trees is the heart of this community. A pharmacy, bakery, butcher, supermarket and nice village pubs are just a few steps away, but if you want to walk further, this is the place to be. The beautiful silence and walking area, the Fondation of Boudelo, is nearby. Connection to Antwerp and Ghent at only 10' drive. 

History meets modernity in this imposing mansion built in 1798. The authentic parts were sublimely preserved and on top of that received a stunning upgrade by the modern extension of ANTE architects. Stained glass, original doors, high ceilings, moldings and a modern twist thanks to the almost entirely glazed extension - here you have it all.

Spacious entrance hall. Office with built-in closets; basement; practical laundry room with shower and sink finished in marble. Magnificent living and dining space with high ceilings and original fireplace. The living space connects the extension to the ultra-equipped Bulthaup kitchen with 2 islands, 2 pantries and quality appliances including Gaggenau. The glass extension has a timeless and stylish finish. In the summer you slide the windows fully open; in winter you enjoy the cozy warmth inside - always a pleasant indoor-outdoor feeling.

From the kitchen you have a beautiful view of garden, semi-open terrace with outdoor fireplace and swimming pond, all in the middle of the village center. Furthermore, a wonderful outdoor shower, carport for 2 cars and garden shed.

On +1 you have 3 spacious bedrooms with washbasin, fireplace mantels and super-luxury bathroom. The large attic at +2 is finished but still offers plenty of options.

owner speaks out

The absolute best spot here? Without a doubt the kitchen, where you always feel like you're outside. Furthermore, it is great to stay near your guests while cooking. The terrace with outdoor fireplace is also a place to envy. When other people hide behind "their stoves," we enjoy being outside here as early as early spring, on a late summer evening or an Indian summer. Sinaai's village square is unique. Here you have the warmth of the countryside, the comfort of a center, and the charm and space of an authentic mansion. We love the central location in the middle of the village, with the stores just around the corner: a supermarket - which we call our second fridge -, a pharmacy, a post office, a convenience store... And what is a village without its village pubs? 

In no time you are walking through the greenery and at the same time you are quickly connected to larger cities. The quirky combination of old and new, the security of a village and the soothing ringing of church bells.... It's a place that will be missed!
