Just over five years ago, we fell in love with this house and converted it into our new home. But now vibrant city life is calling us to Leuven Centre. Us... That's Sara, Wim and Liaz. 

We would like to digitally show you around our property, looking for a new owner.

Advantages of the property

ENERGY NEUTRAL

During the renovation of this house (370 m2), not only the aesthetic aspect of the house was addressed. A complete energetic renovation also made the house ready for a sustainable future.

For instance, this house has a geothermal heat pump, 36 solar panels (with reverse counter), ventilation (D-system) and underfloor heating. After demolishing the old facade, the house was completely encased in an insulating shell of at least 14 cm and fitted with double glazing.

ACCESSIBILITY

Just 5 km from the Brussels ring road, the property has easy access towards the A12 and E40 motorways. The National Airport (18 km) the European district (13 km) and the hospitals UZ Brussel (5 km) and Brugmann (6 km) are also easily accessible.

The property is located at walking distance from the centre of Wemmel, in the vicinity of an artisanal butcher and baker, as well as several supermarkets and schools.


ORIENTATION

The house is built on a plot of more than 990 m2, with a width of 30 metres.

The property's garden is south-facing and features a spacious terrace (80m2) that also lets you enjoy the last rays of the sun in the evening during a cosy cocktail or bbq with family and/or friends.

The property is fully fenced and the garden landscaped. The front garden is ready to be planted according to the new owners' taste.

Introduction

The house has a total living area of 375 m2. During the 2018 renovation, light and space played an important role in the home's design.

A modern style with light colours and open spaces characterise the home. Some wood accents, such as the kitchen island and the staircase, add a pleasant twist to the home. The home features all modern technology such as home automation, geothermal heating, underfloor heating and ventilation. The kitchen is equipped with quality appliances (oven and steam oven by Miele, induction hob and cooker hood by Novy, dishwasher and freezer by Siemens and fridge by Liebherr).

The basement area has also been completely renovated and offers parking space for two cars, including a charging station.
