Description

Here you live in an idyllic and central location, close to Brussels, motorway access and cycling distance from Mechelen. Right in the heart of the village, you can walk to the restaurants, shops, schools, CC De Melkerij and the library.

The fact that Villa Maria dates from 1912 is written in the beautiful façade, as are the initials of the lovers who lived there: Theodore Van Boeckhout and Serafina Moens. Sober side façade with wrought-iron anchors. The charm lies in the fine details, materials and authentic elements: lots of art nouveau, enamelled panels, white stone, bluestone, red papestone, connecting doors with tinted glass, curved mouldings, original interior doors...
