luxury house with reception room for sale Brasschaat, Belgium

A rare architectural signature by Jo Crepain, nestled in the greenery of ’s-Gravenwezel. The Pink Villa is a striking residential concept that, through its exceptional architecture, attracted national and international acclaim in the past. Set on a plot of approximately 2,000 m², the carefully landscaped garden forms a natural extension of the architecture itself. Designed through an intensive dialogue between the architect and the first owner, this U-shaped villa is an exceptional example of contemporary, postmodernist architecture with neo-purist influences. Its powerful geometry is softened by a subtle interplay between light, glass, concrete, and the surrounding landscape. Spanning approximately 335 m², the residence is organized around a sheltered, south-facing patio of approx. 36 m² and comprises a live-in kitchen with dining area, a spacious living room, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a home office and TV room on the mezzanines, as well as a two-car garage and storage spaces. Additional details: Particularly characteristic are the pink and grey concrete blocks and the numerous windows and glass blocks, which bring natural light deep into the interior and offer a constantly changing experience of the home throughout the day. Heating system replaced in 2025. The roof and two Velux skylights were replaced in 2012.

A beautiful lane leads us to the 17th century castle in classicist style. The “castle of Hocht” was originally a Cistercian abbey with appurtenances. This domain of approximately 10 ha includes -in addition to the castle (former abbess's quarters)- a porter's house (concierge), a coach house with some authentic stables (8 horse boxes), a chapel ruin and a parsonage house. The magnificent park with ancient trees and high biodiversity is completely walled in and protected as a cultural-historical landscape. It includes the ruins of the former church choir (including the house chapel), several walkways and paths, several meadows and a poetic pond. The area in front of the castle is a French garden inspired by landscape architect Jacques Wirtz. The rest of the estate is typified by predominantly English landscaping with an orangery and orchard, a former water mill and a herb and vegetable garden. The castle has already been restored in several stages (between 2014 and 2020) to more contemporary standards and comfort. With attention to detail and respect for its heritage value. The castle's generous entrance exudes finesse and elegance. It is a light-filled room with magnificent paneling, moulures and rich stucco and staff work. The large windows in the various salons provide plenty of light and engagement with the garden. The first floor on underfloor heating includes a spacious and fully equipped kitchen, a cozy dining area, several lounges with fireplace, a spacious library and an office. The castle counts on the second floor a large (master) suite with dressing room and bathroom, a large bedroom with bathroom and infra-red room and several large bedrooms (7 in total) with bathrooms (5 in total) and a lounge. The second floor was arranged as a large artist's studio and a separate billiard room. Next to the castle is the carriage house which was transformed into a multipurpose room for lectures and exhibitions. It also houses 8 authentic horse stables and a section was converted into a full-fledged herbalist's kitchen. The rectory dwelling is located a little further down the road. It consists of a large kitchen, a cozy sitting area and 4 bedrooms. Possibly this building could be used multi-functionally (B&B, concierge, etc).
