🏡House of the Week

Waalsekaai 11
Ever walked past this mansion by and wondered, “Who lives there and can I afford it?”
Well, if you’ve got €1.695.000 and a need for 425 m² of living space, it could be you!
Step outside and you’re in the park, grabbing pastries from Delafaille, a steak from Butcher Store, or a drink at one of the many bars nearby.
Inside:
2 garages, 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, an elevator (because stairs are for peasants), and a rooftop terrace.
P.S: If any of you buy it, don’t forget to invite us over for an apéro!
