"Going for a quick bike ride or taking the water bus to Antwerp with the kids... Living here is incredibly convenient in relation to the city – a major advantage! Brussels and Ghent are also easily accessible; within just a few minutes, you're on the highway. For us and the kids, this is a really nice and practical neighbourhood: schools are nearby, and they can safely bike to their hobbies (Scouts and football). The area is also very peaceful, surrounded by polders and nature. As a mountain biker/road cyclist, it’s absolutely perfect for me too: you hop on your bike and within a minute you're in the polders, where you can ride in total tranquility. During my evening rides, I often spot a deer or a fox... Incredible! Going for walks in the forest with our family, visiting the petting zoo, or following the Bever Trail is another favourite activity – very relaxing. Our sons have plenty of space both indoors and outdoors to play and run around. The house is very spacious, but thanks to the combination of old wooden elements, the large living room, and the clean-lined walls, it has an incredibly cosy atmosphere. With so many rooms, there's always a quiet spot for reading or working; and the garage is great for storage and for tinkering with my bikes. But of course, what we’ll miss the most... is the garden! Pruning, mowing the lawn... I absolutely love gardening, just like my father used to. It’s also an amazing place for the kids, who can easily play football or do wild tricks on the trampoline. First communions, birthday dinners, bouncy castles, party tents... There's space for it all! On hot days we cool off in the shade of a tree, and in winter we make popcorn over the fire bowl – such wonderful memories."
