Exceptional renovation opportunity in a prime Ekkergem lo...

Ekkergem offers the best of both worlds: the charm and tranquillity of an established Ghent residential neighbourhood combined with the vibrant city centre close at hand. From Ekkergemstraat, the historic city centre is easily accessible on foot or by bicycle, while shops, restaurants, cafés and public transport are all within easy reach. An attractive location for those who enjoy city living without being right in the middle of the hustle and bustle.

Behind the 8.5-metre-wide façade of this townhouse lies a property with considerable potential, set on a 219 m² plot. One of its key features is the south-facing garden, which opens onto Heilig-Bloedstraat at the rear. Here, there is a garage with an upper structure, with a street frontage of approximately 4.5 metres. As a result, the property can be accessed from two streets.

Renovation work on the property has already commenced and will need to be continued by the future owner. An architect will need to be appointed for the further renovation works, and the required environmental planning permit will need to be applied for and obtained. This gives the future owner the opportunity to shape the remainder of the renovation project according to their own vision, within the applicable planning regulations.

The property was previously internally connected to the neighbouring house at number 89. This connection still needs to be permanently closed off. A physical boundary between the two properties also still needs to be created in the garden.
This is therefore not a move-in-ready home, but rather a distinctive renovation project for those looking for space, character and potential. The wide façade, generous proportions, south-facing garden and rear garage with upper structure provide an exceptional basis for creating a home entirely to the new owner’s taste.

Properties offering such possibilities are rare in Ekkergem. An interesting opportunity for those looking to create their own residential project in a sought-after area of Ghent.
To allow prospective buyers to familiarise themselves with this particular renovation project in advance, the key available documents relating to the property can be consulted on the Abitos website. We recommend that interested parties review these documents carefully in advance.
