Description
Located in one of Ixelles’ most sought-after neighbourhoods, just moments from the Ixelles Ponds and the area’s many renowned amenities and addresses, this pleasant dual-aspect apartment of approximately 80 m² according to the EPC enjoys a particularly desirable setting.
Situated on the ground floor of a building overlooking a prestigious, wide and quiet avenue, the apartment offers a harmonious blend of urban living and tranquillity.
The living area opens onto the leafy front garden of the building, creating a pleasant sense of space and an unusual feeling of greenery in the heart of the city. The dual-aspect layout naturally separates the living areas from the sleeping quarters.
At the rear, one of the two bedrooms has direct access to a remarkable terrace of approximately 75 m². A true extension of the living space, this exceptional outdoor area is a rare asset in this sought-after neighbourhood and offers a peaceful haven away from the bustle of the city.
The terrace lends itself to a variety of uses: an outdoor dining area for entertaining, a comfortable lounge, an urban garden, or simply a private setting in which to enjoy sunny days in peaceful surroundings.
A private cellar further complements this city apartment.
This property combines a sought-after address, a vibrant neighbourhood lifestyle and the rarity of an exceptional outdoor space, just a short walk from the Ixelles Ponds.
The appearance of the avenue has changed little since the beginning of the 20th century, like the streets of the Étangs d'Ixelles district. The first houses were built in 1900. The original buildings on the avenue, mainly bourgeois houses, are largely dominated by eclecticism. They form remarkable ensembles on both sides of the avenue, notable for their architectural coherence. This homogeneity is, however, broken on the even-numbered side by an apartment building from 1969 (arch. A. Balcaen).
The neighbourhood benefits from a strategic location, within easy reach of the Ixelles Ponds, the university district, and major roads such as Avenue de la Couronne and Chaussée de Wavre. This positioning allows for quick access to the city centre, the European institutions, and surrounding municipalities.
The area offers a lively and convenient neighbourhood life, with numerous local shops, supermarkets, cafés, and restaurants, as well as several schools and sports facilities. Public transport is very well developed (tram and bus), ensuring excellent connectivity throughout the capital.
