The house is located 3 kms from the heart of Antwerp in a dead-end street, ending onto a nice square. It is well-connected to all major bus and tramlines as well as to the central station. You can easily spend a week or more in Antwerp but it is also an ideal base for day trips to Brussels, Ghent, Bruges, Amsterdam and even Paris.
There are plenty of bars and restaurants within walking or cycling distance from the house.
The house itself is spacious, offers all modern comfort and is best described as "cozy cluttered". We decorated it with flea market finds combined with more modern pieces. The house was built in 1910 and boasts very high, authentically decorated ceilings, mouldings and antique glass doors. It was refurbished in 2005.
We have a son, so people with children (aged 0-5) will find everything they need.
On the ground floor you will find the monumental entrance hall, a well-equipped kitchen, a pantry, toilet and a large living room. The high glass door in the kitchen opens unto our garden. On the "in-between" floor, there's an extra toilet, the dressing and our newly refurbished bathroom with walk-in rainshower and bath. On the first floor, you will find our son's bedroom: there's a baby-cot in there now, but we could put up to 3 (air mattress) beds here if you want. There is also a large office space that can be used as an extra bedroom. On the 2nd floor you'll find two spacious bedrooms.
A perfect location for couples, families or friends looking for a spacious but cosy house with plenty of day tripping opportunities!
