Description

Hidden behind an unusual facade in the heart of Lokeren is this bright flat. Its proximity to shops, the station, the E17 and hotspots such as Onshi Sushi and Bar Copine make this residence an ideal base.

In 1921, the building was erected as the main electricity distribution station. Architect Henri Vanden Broucke combined art deco elements with traditional style elements. Today, the building is a small-scale residence consisting of 2 flats.

This flat is on the ground floor and can be accessed via the communal entrance hall. Enter into the bright living space in the front. The authentic gate and brick walls add character to the space. At the same time, screens and clouded glass provide privacy from the street.

All rooms have high ceilings and are arranged around a central block housing the bathroom (with walk-in shower). The open layout ensures a pleasant living experience.

The flat further features 2 bedrooms, a separate guest toilet and an outdoor space. The kitchen can be finished to your own taste. The master bedroom is located at the back and flows into the cosy outdoor space. In the 2nd bedroom, natural light comes from above, creating a unique atmosphere. The brick walls are accentuated by strategically placed mood lighting.

Throughout the apartment is a cast floor with underfloor heating. The ideal combination for a lovely cosy feeling. The ceiling is finished with felt profiles, a warm material that contrasts beautifully with the brick walls.

The owners,

owner speaks out

'I rented a flat on the same street and the attractive facade of this building made me dream. Every day I passed it and thought, 'If that building ever comes up for sale...' In January 2016, it suddenly happened. I immediately made all the contacts to buy it.'
