On the ground floor of an elegant townhouse near the Leien, you will find this one-of-a-kind apartment. Located in a vibrant neighbourhood between Roosevelt Square and the lively Saint John's Square, everything is within easy reach: picnicking or jogging in Park Spoor Noord or along the Scheldt, strolling and dining at the Eilandje or in the city centre, with excellent access to major roads and public transport.
The authentic features of a classic townhouse – high ceilings, parquet floors, decorative mouldings and a stately façade – have been beautifully combined with contemporary architectural elements. A striking feature is the split-level living room, enhanced by modern slatted details and a partially walkable glass floor, allowing natural light to flood the semi-basement below. Currently used as an impressive man cave with a pool table, this versatile space could also serve as a home office, second lounge, bedroom or studio.
From the moment you enter, your eye is drawn to the charming garden and the contemporary open-plan kitchen with island, adjoining the dining area. Quietly located at the rear are the spacious bedroom, the en-suite bathroom with both bath and shower, and a generous walk-in dressing room.
Both the kitchen and bedroom open onto the atmospheric city garden, reminiscent of a Mediterranean courtyard. Open the large terrace doors completely, and in summer the garden becomes a seamless extension of the living space – the perfect setting for a relaxed Sunday brunch, barbecue or evening aperitif with friends.
Unique and cosy apartment. Anything but ordinary.
