Description

In the heart of the city lies the Grand Beguinage: peaceful and serene. With Brewery Het Anker just around the corner and the cultural centre nearby, you’re in a beautiful protected heritage site recognised by UNESCO.

Here, where history and charm meet, this property was fully renovated in 2024 and transformed into a stylish student home. Five spacious en-suite rooms, a large shared kitchen with lounge, and a sunny south-facing garden take this house to an exceptional level.

On the ground floor, the cosy living space is perfect for studying, catching up, or game nights. The sun-drenched kitchen, featuring a large skylight, opens onto the garden. Also on this floor: the first room with private en-suite. Both the first and second floors offer two generous rooms, each with its own bathroom.

From cellar to roof, including windows, systems and even the front door – everything has been renewed with care for the home’s heritage value. The result: a strong EPC label A, fully compliant with fire safety standards.

This is much more than a future-proof investment – it’s a unique property full of character. Ready today as a high-yield student residence, or – with a permit change – ideal for co-housing, Airbnb or as a spacious family home.

A one-of-a-kind property with soul and serious potential.
