In the heart of historic Antwerp is this exceptional town villa, designed by Bob Van Reeth, co-founder of AWG Architects and former Flemish Bouwmeester. For years it was his own home and architectural office. The building is a tangible translation of its vision: timeless, sustainable architecture that naturally anchors itself in its urban context.
Behind the modest façade there is a surprisingly rich interior, with polished black granite, curved walls, round light domes, glass parties and a sculptural central staircase. The imposing double height living space forms the heart of the house and bathes in natural light thanks to the large glass panes and light dome.
The semi-professional kitchen with stainless steel worktops and large cooking island connects to a unique, formally landscaped French garden with box hedges, water party and lush greenery. An orangery completes the whole thing.
The central staircase and lift connect the different levels with spacious rooms and bathrooms, finished in natural stone. From the third floor, a walkway offers a wide view over the historic roofs of Antwerp, while the back is overlooking the green garden. The entire house is under cellar and offers spacious storage space.
A rare opportunity to become the owner of an architectural document: a special piece Antwerp's architectural heritage, in which design, material and space merge to one timelessly.
This property has been established as an architectural heritage.
