Benedicte

Blessed sustainable living in Mortsel

On Sint-Benedictusstraat in Mortsel, the energy-efficient new construction project Benedicte welcomes you to a unique living environment: a green home for anyone who values sustainability, a natural environment and blissful living comfort. And with a choice of 52 varied apartments, 15 family homes and 1 commercial space, you're sure to find a place to suit you!

Benedicte is a future-oriented and sustainable BEN housing project around a new green and car-free park in Mortsel. All houses and apartments achieve at least EPC label A. Moreover, the buildings are energy positive: they consume less energy than they produce.

Central location in Mortsel
Located at the intersection of Sint-Benedictusstraat and Molenstraat in Mortsel, less than 10 minutes' walk from the Gemeenteplein and Mortsel Station. Here you will find the cozy city center with stores, restaurants and cafes. The neighborhood also offers easy access to public transportation.

Collective neighborhood heating network
Heating for Benedicte's buildings comes from a collective heat grid managed by neighborhood energy cooperative ZuidtrAnt- Warmte. The system of a heat grid is similar to a central heating system, but at the level of an entire neighborhood. It is an underground circulating pipeline that brings heat (or cooling) from a heat source to customers. In Benedicte's case, that heat source is its own BEO field.

Peace & space
Benedicte's green park environment was designed by Wirtz International Landscape Architects as an oasis of tranquility and meeting for residents and neighborhood. At its center is a vast park connected by a network of paths that invite walking and biking. These paths connect the park to a central residential courtyard, a green meeting place where residents can meet in an informal way.

Benedicte is integrally committed to sustainability:
- carbon-neutral solid timber construction (CLT)
- energy efficient BEN homes
- maximum preservation of the existing greenery
- car-free park with underground parking spaces
- construction of a new green park with playground and barefoot path
- homes powered by 100% renewable energy, completely free of fossil fuels
- ideal investment that is future-proof
