We are invited to view two renovated apartments on the Groenplaats. Exciting, as properties rarely become available for residential use here. The entrance to the building is located on Zwaluwstraat, a narrow street between the Oude Koornmarkt and the Groenplaats. It soon becomes clear to us just how extensively the 1902 building was renovated by Antwerp-based architecture collective faktordertig. They were commissioned to completely renovate a dilapidated townhouse in the Beaux-Arts style, transforming it into a commercial ground floor and two apartments. Even the basement was taken in hand. The staircase leading down to it was fitted with a “bicycle ramp”, allowing bicycles to be stored on level -1. Access to both apartments is located on level +1. The duplex apartment has its living area on level +2 and its sleeping area on level +3. On this floor, the pitched roof is accentuated by a wall entirely clad in plywood. We find it particularly striking and get the feeling that we are in a house rather than an apartment. The contrast between the wood, the brick wall and the exposed concrete ceiling in the dining room gives the apartment a warm yet highly contemporary look. Both floors have terraces. The level of privacy you enjoy here is almost unimaginable. The view at the front is expansive, monumental and green: from the trees, to the bronze statue of Pieter Paul Rubens, and the look on your friends’ faces when they discover your new home. The common charges amount to €10 and are a provision for the electricity of the communal areas and the building insurance.
