Country house

Located on two cadastral parcels of building land with a total area of 8,917 m² in a beautiful quiet lane in Sint-Martens-Latem, this classic villa is discreetly nestled in the greenery.

The property enjoys a pronounced private character and is within walking distance of both the golf course and the bustling center of Sint-Martens-Latem. The villa was built in a timeless architecture with attention to quality materials, generous volumes, and a balanced layout. Large windows provide pleasant natural light and create a direct connection to the garden and surrounding greenery from various living spaces.

The outdoor landscaping complements the residential character of the property. The spacious terrace is a natural extension of the living spaces and overlooks the garden and the swimming pool. The private walking path through the greenery enhances the peaceful atmosphere of the domain and provides a nature experience on the property. Due to the size of the plot, the property enjoys a pronounced sense of privacy, while the immediate proximity to the golf course and the easy accessibility to Ghent are important added value.

The property requires an update but offers a solid foundation with contemporary living comfort and has several versatile spaces that can be used for both residential and professional purposes.

A major asset is the two cadastral parcels of building land, allowing for potential expansion or the construction of a second building (poolhouse, hobby room, car gallery, caretaker's residence) if desired.
