house for sale in Bruges

In the historic heart of Bruges is one of the most impressive private hotels in the city. This exceptionally wide corner building, built in a classicist style around 1787 on the foundations of the former church of St.Walburge, is officially protected as a monument and thus constitutes one of the most valuable heritages that Bruges has to offer. The majestic facade with its refined details immediately announces what is inside: a home that not only offers an exceptional space but also a history and meaning that transcends generations.

Through the monumental entrance, you have access to a series of magnificent salons, high ceilings and large reception spaces that recall an era of style and elegance. There is a library, a desk, various dining rooms and a fully equipped kitchen, making this house suitable for a representative use as well as a comfortable life. The particular width and angle position ensure an abundance of light and an opening sensation which is particularly rare in a historic city centre.

With a living area of not less than 1.248 m2 and a plot of 820 m2, this house offers unprecedented possibilities. On the first floor there are six spacious bedrooms and four bathrooms, while on the second floor there are still five bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a full loft. Some rooms are furnished in suites with a private living room and kitchenette, ideal for guests or those looking for privacy and independence within the whole. In addition, under the building there is a partially basement area.

The building has two house numbers, offering the possibility to reactivate the left side as a bed & breakfast. Thanks to a separate entrance, a private garden and a separate stairwell, the layout is perfectly arranged for this purpose, thus guaranteeing the separation between the private and the host in an elegant way.

Behind the monumental cochère door, there is room for one to two cars, and on the ground there is still an authentic shed waiting for renovation and is perfectly suitable for additional accommodation, a workshop or a creative interpretation. In addition, the roofs have recently been completely renovated, offering the future owner peace of mind and preparing this heritage property for a new generation of inhabitants.

This private hotel combines a rich history with exceptional charm and almost unlimited potential. A rare gem where authenticity, elegance and possibilities come together - perfect for those who want to live in big or realize a dream of hospitality unique in the heart of the city.
