Description
IN OPTIE Three-façade house with exceptional potential, situated on a beautiful plot featuring a garden of approximately 300 m², where peace and privacy are paramount. This characterful property, built in 1889, combines authentic charm, generous volumes, and numerous possibilities for those seeking a home with soul.
The house offers six full-sized bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it perfectly suited for large families or a combination of living and working. It also includes a spacious cellar and an integrated garage, providing additional comfort and storage space. At the rear, there is a practical garage box (optionally available for purchase at €50,000), accessible via the back door of the garden. A private exit with access gate also ensures easy access to the outside.
This property was carefully inhabited for no less than 49 years by architect Peter Vanhoenacker, grandson of Jan Vanhoenacker, the architect of the iconic Boerentoren. With his expertise and architectural passion, he maintained the house with great dedication. This is notably reflected in the stylish rear extension, which he personally designed and had built.
Although the house requires refreshing and renovation works, it offers a unique opportunity to restore a historic property according to one’s own taste, while respecting its rich past and architectural features.
An exceptional opportunity for lovers of character homes with history, space, and a beautiful garden.
