House for sale

Beautiful art nouveau house with commercial premises

In Zurenborg you are close to Berchem station, tram, bus and main roads - excellent mobility. Furthermore, this atmospheric neighbourhood is mainly known for its combo of cosy restaurants, coffee bars, stately, architectural houses and the Dageraadplaats, where there is always something going on.


‘The Lion of Waterloo’ is a beautiful corner house in art nouveau style. Designed in 1904 by arch. Jacques De Weerdt, renovated by AG Vespa in 2009 according to new-build standards.


Initially, the 65 m2 ground floor was zoned as 2 parking spaces, so that may be an option, although today it houses an architect's office. Coffee bar, multi-purpose space or a liberal profession are also possibilities. Commercial activities are allowed provided they are not a nuisance.


The authentic staircase in the separate entrance hall leads to the first floor of the living area with no less than 230 m2 of living space. Plenty of light on all sides thanks to the many windows and instant atmosphere in the living space with original wooden floors. The original cooking island is the centre piece in the handsome Bulthaup kitchen.


The second floor has 2 spacious bedrooms, the largest with charming balcony and graceful balustrade. The bathroom with dressing room, bathtub, shower and double washbasin is also large and sunny. On the third and top floor another 2 spacious bedrooms and a lovely (licensed!) roof terrace.


The property is currently rented out with an income of 2,250€/month.
