Description

We are a family of academics working at the KU Leuven. We will be away on a nine month sabbatical from October 2024 to the end of July 2025. We have restored this beautiful 1888 house to its former glory, which is includes retaining all of its original features whilst bringing the house up to modern standards. The property includes three cosy, spacious lounges, one of which includes a working wood stove (with wood provided). Above the kitchen is a separate, peaceful study with views onto the leafy garden. The house has three large bedrooms and two bathrooms. One with a bath (including a shower-head) and the other with a walk in shower. The upper floor (under the attic) will be reserved for the occasional personal use where only the central staircase will be shared. In the cellar is a washing machine and a dryer. There is also a treadmill and a rowing machine located in the cellar. This house finds itself in the centre of the historic university city of Leuven and is only a ten minute walk away from the station. Because of this great location you can enjoy everything the beautiful city of Leuven has to offer. In spite of being centrally located the house and walled-in garden remain quiet and peaceful, ideal for studying, researching, and relaxing. In the garden is a BBQ-pizza oven - great fun for inviting friends and having family around. For additional photos, please see link below.
