Description

In a dead-end street of a quiet residential area in hip Kessel-Lo, close to the huge provincial domain with sports fields, outdoor swimming pool and playgrounds. With plenty of nature all around and yet only 10 minutes by bike from the centre of Leuven. A terrace on the Old Market square, a stroll through the shopping streets or something to eat in the Muntstraat... Here you don't have to choose.

Lots of wood, natural, soft materials, ecologically painted walls by Edelhert, with gold leaf details and a beautiful stained-glass window with a peacock: this open-plan row house has a warm, romantic atmosphere. In two major phases (2016-‘17 and 2019-’20), this house underwent a high-quality, sustainable renovation, preserving its authentic charm as much as possible.

The fixed bench on the front façade is great for chatting with neighbours while the children play pavement chalk or play. Entrance hall. Attractive kitchen with Quooker, steam oven, gold-coloured sinks and adjacent dining area. Continuous concrete floor with underfloor heating, recovered marble in the kitchen from the original fireplaces in the house. Storage and workshop in abundance thanks to the large worktop and numerous fitted cupboards. 

On the first floor the bathroom with StoryTiles tiles and cosy living space and finally a large sleeping loft on the second floor. 
Via the patio between front and back house, you reach another multipurpose room with toilet and private bathroom. Ideal as a hobby room or separate studio.
At the back is a large garden with garden shed and even an aviary. Let those summer days begin.

Warm house with a soul in a sought-after location - don't wait too long!

To say our hearts and souls are here is an understatement.
The owners,

owner speaks out

We stripped this house down to its bricks and rebuilt it from scratch, while keeping as much of its authentic charm as possible. In between all that rebuilding, our three children and thus our family were born in this place. So to say that our heart and soul are here is an understatement. Meanwhile, we have outgrown this lovely house and are embarking on a new remodelling adventure, although this will forever remain our family's first home....
