Exclusive – Ixelles, a stone’s throw from the Abbaye de la Cambre and the Rond-point de l’Etoile, where the Brussels World Fair of 1910 and Art deco met and contributed to the development of this upmarket district. The flat is part of a monumental complex, the Palais de la Cambre, consisting of five Art Deco flat blocks built by the Société Belge Immobilière and its architect Camille Damman between 1924 and 1930.

The construction of apartment buildings underwent a major development in the aftermath of the Great War. A law promulgated on 8 July 1924 made the principle of co-ownership legal. The wealthier classes of Brussels society took advantage of this principle to acquire large flats rather than private houses. These flats included all the amenities of a mansion on one level: fully equipped kitchens, bathrooms, central heating, etc.

The 130m2 flat was built in 1930 with a terrace in the front. Many elements such as the parquet flooring, the moulded ceilings, the copper handles are original and in very good general condition.

From the entrance hall, on the left, one enters the living room with a period fireplace and the 10m2 terrace. On the right is the kitchen with utility room and laundry room overlooking the interior island and its remarkable ensemble. The windows are new. A second entrance door with staircase and service lift gives access to the cellars and garages.

To the left of the entrance hall is the access to a first bedroom currently used as a dining room. A glass door gives access to the night hall, to the separate toilet and to the bathroom. Continuing the corridor, the 21 m2 bedroom opens onto the back of the building. The floor is in parquet, the window is new with double glazing.
A maid’s room of +/- 12m2 on the 8th floor and a cellar are sold with the flat. A garage completes the property and can be purchased as a complement.
