Duplex for sale

Exclusive duplex apartment in the center of Leuven.

Behind the protected façade of this characterful townhouse lies a remarkably spacious 221 m² duplex, spread across the first and second floors. A unique combination of historic charm, contemporary comfort and exceptional outdoor space, ideally located in the heart of Leuven.

The protected façade on Brusselsestraat forms part of Leuven’s distinctive post war reconstruction architecture. Directly opposite the property are the historic Gasthuiskapel and the Romaanse Poort. Thanks to this protected historic setting, the property enjoys uninterrupted open views with no overlooking from neighbouring buildings.

The duplex was fully renovated in 2018, with great respect for the original character of the property and particular attention to contemporary living comfort and technical quality. The home features a stylish modern country interior, high quality materials and a carefully designed lighting plan.

The spacious living floor forms the heart of the home. In addition to a generous entrance hall and inviting living areas, it features an exceptionally large open plan kitchen. With ample worktop space and room for a large dining table, the kitchen is far more than a functional space: it is a true living area, ideal for everyday life as well as entertaining guests.

The property is also exceptionally well equipped from a technical perspective. Home automation, motion sensors, built in speakers, an integrated lighting plan and UTP connections in every bedroom provide contemporary comfort and a high performance data infrastructure.

The upper floor comprises three bedrooms and a bathroom. The separate sleeping floor creates a natural division between living and sleeping areas, offering both tranquillity and privacy.

The property also offers excellent energy performance, with an EPC rating of A and a score of just 70 kWh/m² per year. Underfloor gas heating and active cooling via air to air heat pumps ensure a pleasant indoor climate throughout the year.

The small scale residence comprises only three residential units, resulting in particularly low communal costs. The building currently has no lift.

The absolute highlight is the exceptionally large south facing terrace at the rear. This private outdoor space features integrated floor spotlights and waterproof power sockets, making it a true extension of the living area. A terrace offering this combination of size, privacy and quality is exceptionally rare in Leuven’s historic city centre.
