The Villa
Located on J. Van Gijsellaan in Wemmel, discreetly tucked away in the residential neighborhood of Bouchout, lies this authentic 1958 villa. With an impressive living area of no less than 516 m², this property offers a rare volume of living space that has been carefully preserved over the years. The home is situated on a generous, lush plot of 1,854 m², where the beautifully landscaped garden transitions seamlessly into the park-like surroundings. This is a unique renovation project for those seeking a character-filled canvas in one of the most highly sought-after locations on the outskirts of Brussels.
The Location
Living in the Bouchout Domain is synonymous with tranquility, greenery, and residential grandeur. The broad avenues and the immediate proximity to the Meise Botanic Garden and the castle grounds create an atmosphere of absolute exclusivity. Despite the serene, almost rural feel, the villa enjoys excellent accessibility: in just a few moments, you can reach the capital or the main access roads.
The Style and Charm
The villa's interior pays homage to classic aesthetics, characterized by authentic elements and spacious living areas where light and volume take center stage; the grand entrance hall with its marble floor and an elegant, sweeping staircase immediately sets the tone. Particularly characterful is the circular office space or library, where arched floor-to-ceiling windows offer a panoramic view of the garden and blur the lines between indoors and outdoors.
The potential
With a total of six bedrooms and three bathrooms, this residence is exceptionally well-suited as a spacious family home. An exceptional asset is the presence of a separate studio, perfectly suited to serve as a multi-generational living space (kangaroo home), a care unit, or live-in staff quarters. Although the villa requires thorough energetic and technical modernization to meet contemporary standards, its solid structure and immense volume offer the opportunity to realize a unique living concept that blends classic allure with modern comfort.
The garden
Life on this estate moves outdoors at the very first rays of sunshine. The garden is an oasis of peace with an optimal south-facing orientation, allowing you to enjoy maximum natural light throughout the day. The expansive terrace, flanked by mature trees and a lush lawn, provides the perfect backdrop for long summer evenings in complete privacy. The spacious driveway with room for six cars and the integral garage complete the comfort of this stately domain.
