The house features a spacious entrance hall with space for bicycles, a separate toilet, a dining and living area with access to the kitchen (which includes a storage room) and the small but cosy south-west-facing terrace, as well as a large, dry cellar. On the first floor is the first, large bedroom and a fantastic bathroom with a bath, two washbasins and a large walk-in shower. The second floor is divided into an office/workspace and a cosy living room, with access to a spacious, high-ceilinged mezzanine which currently serves as a second bedroom. This floor could function as a separate duplex or be converted into two additional bedrooms. The biggest advantage: behind the house lies a demarcated plot of 37 square metres which the future owners can purchase from the City of Ghent at a very reasonable price for a garden. The house enjoys plenty of natural light, mainly thanks to the south-west facing rear façade, which lets the sun into the dining and living areas, the bedroom on the first floor and the study on the second floor. ABOUT THE FACILITIES: The property is fitted with gas central heating, featuring an approved boiler and modern Buderus radiators in all rooms, an approved electrical installation, digital meters for electricity and gas, and fibre-optic connections. The basement has a connection for a washing machine and/or tumble dryer. The kitchen is fitted with a compact dishwasher. With an EPC rating on the border between D and C, the house stays cool in summer and warm in winter. All windows are fitted with at least double or triple glazing glass. ABOUT THE AREA: Our house is situated on a quiet street in a friendly neighbourhood. It is also just two streets away from Ghent’s inner ring road. The house has a Mobiscore of 9.2 out of 10, with both tram (T3) and (numerous) bus stops just 200 metres away, providing a quick connection to the historic centre and both railway stations.
