Description

In this highly regarded, residential neighbourhood, you will be surrounded by architectural gems as well as the city's nicest attractions. Quiet and close to the centre, Groen Kwartier, Harmoniepark, arterial roads... - without a doubt one of the best locations in Antwerp.

Duo of master houses in beaux-arts style, designed in 1912 by successful architects Vincent Cols and Jules De Roeck. Widow Caroline della Faille de Waerloos, daughter of the castle lord of Den Brandt in Wilrijk, had the house on the left (no. 22) built for herself and her five children. The house was given a high-quality total renovation in 2000, preserving stained glass, handles, marble fireplaces, (mosaic) tiles and other authentic elements.

In the imposing marble entrance hall, you can choose: do you go for the security of the basement, where the very cosy living kitchen, cosy TV room, scullery and large, lush garden await you? Or do you climb the stairs to the bel-etage, to an even more impressive staircase, sublime lounge, 'salle à manger', separate bar and terrace? Either way, you always enjoy yourself in style here.

On +1: TV room, office and bedroom with en suite bathroom and dressing room. At +2: 2 bedrooms, 1 office and 1 bathroom. The 3rd floor houses 2 more bedrooms, each with private bathroom and additional office/dressing/lounge. One of these is now used as a massage room with sauna and hammam.

You can also reach each floor via the service staircase at the back or by lift.

The owners,

owner speaks out

In this spacious home, everyone finds their own space - whether to relax, play, work, study, or receive friends. At the same time, a very pleasant sense of security surrounds you everywhere, thanks to the original connections between the floors, and even on each floor separately. Doing homework with the children in the living kitchen, cooking with a view of their playroom, receiving friends on the first floor, relaxing in the peaceful greenery of the garden... Upstairs, too, there is plenty of choice if you want to retreat into peace and quiet: work in one of the office areas, enjoy some me-time in the bathroom or massage and wellness room, chill out in your own bedroom... This house really does have it all.
