Characterful semi-detached house

In the heart of the highly sought-after Val Brabançon district in Wemmel, this characterful semi-detached house, dating from 1941, showcases its architectural elegance on a magnificent 853 m² plot, ideally oriented to the south-west.

Formerly a peaceful retreat of the Magritte family, the residence is set in a quiet and leafy residential environment, just minutes from the gates of Brussels, offering the perfect blend of heritage and quality of life.

From the moment you step inside, the marble-clad entrance hall sets the tone for the authentic character of the property. It features a cloakroom and a separate guest toilet, and naturally leads to a spacious 55 m² living room with access to a west-facing terrace.

The ground floor also comprises a separate kitchen and an office with its own adjoining bathroom, making it ideal for a professional practice or private consultation room. This space could also be redesigned as a fifth bedroom or transformed into a sumptuous open-plan kitchen overlooking the surrounding greenery.

The house retains a wealth of original features, including wrought-iron radiator covers, the renowned CUBEX kitchen and elegant oak window frames, some of which have been upgraded to triple glazing.

A beautiful staircase leads to the first floor, where four spacious bedrooms with generous proportions can be found. Two bathrooms complete this level, providing an ideal layout for a family.

Outside, the landscaped garden, arranged over two levels, envelops the property in an intimate and secluded setting.

Highly functional, the villa also benefits from 42 m² of basement cellars and a large 43 m² garage, complemented by several parking spaces along the private driveway. Although the property requires modernisation to fully realise its potential, it can readily meet the renovation requirements of the Flemish Region. This iconic residence represents a rare opportunity to create an exceptional home steeped in history.
