Type of cohouse

Shared home with private shower

Common parts

In short: carefree co-housing in the center of Leuven, all costs are arranged by the managers via provisions as well as the search for new tenants. This is not a "student house" but rather a young work environment. Extensive description of the house: This is a beautiful art deco house that was designed and built in 1950 by Victor Broos, a well-known Leuven architect, to live in himself. This master home was completely renovated in 2022 to the standards of contemporary comfort without sacrificing character. Many original elements have been preserved. Among other things, the doors with stained glass windows in the entrance and in the living room, the beautiful cloakroom including authentic hanging elements, and the stately staircase reflect the grandeur of this master home. The specific floor plan and the surprising size of this house (404m² living space) lend themselves perfectly to co-housing. The following common areas are present: • furnished living room of 31m² including sofa corner with television & streaming accounts; dining area with large table, sofa, and chairs; and a large window to the garden, • furnished kitchen of 20m² with a kitchen island and all typical kitchen appliances (2x induction hob, 2x oven, 3x microwave, ...) and at least one fridge and freezer shelf for each room. • furnished laundry room of 10m² with two washing machines, one dryer, a drying rack, and storage cupboards, • a garden of 46m² with some trees, equipped with garden table and chairs, • bicycle shed in the house itself, • a garage door where one car can park in and one car in front. In addition to these common areas, the co-housing includes 10 bedrooms, 6 with their own bathroom and 4 that share a bathroom per two. All rooms are furnished with a double bed (box spring), desk, sofa, and closet. The living areas of these rooms vary from 16 to 40m², the rents from 580 to 805€/month. There is a monthly provision of 125€ for the fixed costs. Energy costs are minimized by the good insulation of the house (EPC B) and the use of a smart heating system. Given that it concerns co-housing, we are looking for tenants who want to stay for at least one year.

The room is fully furnished and has a fully equipped bathroom. There is a large closet, built-in closets, a desk & desk chair, a double bed (160x200), and a two-seater sofa. The bathroom consists of a walk-in shower, a toilet and a sink.
