5-bed house with garden, Uccle

Uccle – Observatoire | Characterful villa with renovation plans Situated on Avenue de l’Observatoire, in one of Uccle’s most sought-after residential neighbourhoods, this elegant 1950s villa boasts beautiful classical architecture and a prime location, close to the Bois de la Cambre, the shops and amenities of the Churchill neighbourhood. The property is undergoing a renovation project designed to preserve its architectural identity whilst providing the comfort and amenities of a contemporary home. Its brick façade, arched porch, original ironwork and joinery all reflect the house’s Art Deco character. Inside, the project retains several notable features, notably the central staircase, its balustrades and the period fireplace. The ground floor is organised around a spacious central hall leading to generous reception areas, comprising a sitting room with an open fire, a dining room and a large kitchen-diner. A separate study, a cloakroom and a utility room complete this level. The living areas open onto a large terrace extending into the garden, where the project includes plans for an outdoor swimming pool. The first floor comprises three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, as well as a multi-purpose room that could be converted into a private lounge or a study. The ceiling heights, approximately 3.90 metres according to the brochure, contribute to the sense of space. The second floor features two further bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms, as well as a lounge area, allowing for various layouts depending on the needs of its future occupants. The basement has a gross floor area of approximately 180 m² and offers numerous possibilities for conversion: cellars, storage spaces, a wine cellar or leisure areas. A double garage completes the property. A characterful villa, whose renovation project (with planning permission granted) combines the quality of the original architecture with a contemporary interior layout, in the heart of the Observatoire neighbourhood.
