Beaux-Arts charm

Back to overview

Situated between Ambiorix Square and the lively Plasky district, near Diamant and the Parc du Cinquantenaire, this exceptional three-façade townhouse was built in 1912 in refined Beaux-Arts style. With approximately 631 sqm of living space on a 220 sqm plot, the property offers a unique combination of elegance, space, and authenticity. The main entrance on the prestigious Avenue Émile Max leads into a world of refined architecture and timeless charm. Numerous authentic features have been carefully preserved: original parquet floors, richly decorated fireplaces, fine moldings, stained glass doors, wrought ironwork, frescoes, and ornamental details all attest to exceptional craftsmanship. The magnificent living spaces are characterized by high ceilings, generous volumes, and abundant natural light, creating a sense of grandeur and harmony. This property is perfectly suited for versatile use – as a prestigious family residence, office space, or a representative mixed-use building.
