We visited this house over 14 years ago and we fell in love instantly. The high rooms with beautiful moulures, the character of the house, the wooden floors, the city garden full of flowers, which the previous owners planted in such a way that something blooms from spring to autumn, the wide view of the Astrid park at the back, the white blossoms of the tree in front of our house... Everything about this house enchanted us.
The location is also perfect for us: near the centre of Ghent, and yet so close to nature, along the towpath beside the Scheldt. Three playgrounds and parks within walking distance: ideal with our child, who can easily go to the Astrid or Rommelwater parks on his own without having to cross a busy road. There is a village feeling here in the city, many neighbours know each other. Kasteellaan is a big street, but you really don't feel that when you're inside.
With pain in our hearts we are now letting go of this beautiful house, it has simply become too big for our now 'shrunken' family and we will miss it very much....
