Situated at Louise de Colignystraat in the Ouwe Gouwe neighborhood, the property benefits from a central location close to shops, public transport, and recreational areas.

The apartment was built in 1955 and has been sustainably upgraded in recent years, resulting in an energy label A rating. This high level of energy efficiency ensures low energy costs and a comfortable living environment throughout the year. With a living area of approximately 58 square meters and a volume of 178 cubic meters, the residence provides efficient and practical living space.

Upon entering the second floor apartment, you find a hallway providing access to all rooms, the meter cupboard, and a separate toilet room. The living room measures approximately 18 square meters and is situated at the front of the apartment. The corner location provides an additional side window, filling the space with natural light and creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. From the living room, residents enjoy an open and green view toward the Willem- en Marialaan and the St. Jozefhof. This unobstructed view creates a sense of spaciousness and contributes to a pleasant living experience. The living room features a neat laminate floor and provides access to the front-facing balcony.

The enclosed kitchen is located at the rear of the apartment and features modern dark-colored kitchen cabinets with various storage options. The kitchen includes connections for a washing machine and dryer, making laundry tasks convenient and practical.

The bathroom can be accessed from both the kitchen and the main bedroom, creating a practical layout for daily use. It is equipped with a shower, sink with furniture, and tiled walls. A window provides natural ventilation, helping to maintain a fresh and dry environment.

The apartment offers two bedrooms. The first bedroom measures approximately 10 square meters and is located at the rear.

Both bedrooms provide comfortable sleeping quarters and can accommodate standard bedroom furniture.

One of the highlights of this property is the presence of two balconies. The front balcony faces west, allowing residents to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun while overlooking the greenery of the Willem- en Marialaan. The second balcony at the rear faces east, providing morning sunshine. This dual-balcony setup means residents can choose where to relax depending on the time of day and weather conditions.

Additional storage is available in the form of an 8 to 9 square meter private storage room located in the basement of the complex. The ground floor features a secured central entrance with an intercom system, mailboxes, and access to the basement storage units. This setup provides both security and convenience for residents.

The apartment benefits from several sustainability and comfort features, including roof insulation, double glazing (HR++), wall insulation, and mechanical ventilation. These improvements contribute to the excellent energy label A rating and ensure low energy costs. The plastic frames with HR++ glazing help maintain a comfortable indoor temperature while reducing outside noise.

The Homeowners Association (VvE) is well-organized and active. It holds annual meetings, collects periodic contributions, maintains a reserve fund, has a maintenance plan in place, and provides building insurance. The VvE is registered with the Chamber of Commerce, ensuring transparency and professional management of the building.

Parking is available in front of the complex through public parking spaces without the need for a permit. This convenience adds to the accessibility of the property and eliminates parking costs that are common in urban areas.
