City Palace Antwerp Original Grandeur from 1865

CP In doing so, a unique property - with an unusual amount of rich decorations in an extraordinary original condition - was restored in full glory.

CP • Very large, open central staircase with stained glass skylight • Marble fireplaces, staircases and floors • Wood (mosaic) flooring • Chandeliers, lamps, (ornamental) hardware • Stained glass windows • Wood carved doors and stairs • Handcrafted ironwork

CP City Palace is a unique piece of real estate located in Antwerp, Belgium. This part of the city is characterized by a very satisfactory transportation accessibility level. It takes around 5 minutes to reach the Rotterdam/Amsterdam highway, Antwerp Airport or city railway station. You can use the well linked public transport or have a walk in the nearby City Park or City Centre. • Few minutes from highway Rotterdam/Amsterdam and Brussels/Paris • Few minutes from Antwerp Airport and Antwerp Central Railway Station • Half hour to Brussels Airport • Public transport links inside/outside Antwerp in front • Walking distance from City Park and City Center • Unique comprehensive and open views to front and rear • Exceptionally spacious garden in castle style • Nevertheless very safe and private

CP During a meticulous restoration process (2009) by Belgian professionals, every square centimetre was carefully preserved. All original details and original marble and wooden floors were hand polished. Obviously gas, water and electricity infrastructure was replaced. But no changes were made that could damage the original character or features of the building. This property is different than other objects this size, due to the high level of light exposure and the clear structure with large spaces. To emphasize that further, bright colours (from the period 1865) were used for the interior. In doing so, a unique property – with an unusual amount of rich decorations in an extraordinary original condition – was restored in full glory. With an authenticity that still radiates the original grandeur of 1865.

CP Although the City Palace interior is filled with antique artworks and decorations, it is full of advanced technical devices to increase comfort level. Enter the fully modernized lift to switch between floors, relax in the infrared sauna and have fun in the game or fitness room. The whole house is protected by Caddx alarm and camera system. The heating devices are controlled by computer and the building has air conditioning where needed.
