This remarkable property with a rich history is a listed municipal monument that has served a variety of purposes over the years. Originally a convent, it later became a girls’ school and a library, and subsequently functioned as a community support center and neighborhood hub—a place where connection and community were central. Today, the current owners have carefully and thoughtfully transformed the building into a versatile space where living and working are uniquely combined. The ground floor features several office rooms, restrooms, and a kitchen. In addition, this level includes a spacious hall that is perfectly suited for presentations, meetings, creative workspaces, or even additional living space. The property also offers potential for retail or business use. Thanks to its practical layout and generous proportions, this floor provides a wide range of possibilities. The first floor is currently arranged as a comfortable apartment. Here you will find a spacious living room with an open-plan kitchen, three bedrooms, and a modern bathroom. There is also an attic space that can be further customized as desired, for example as an additional workspace, hobby room, or bedroom. The second floor is also used as an apartment. This level features a bright living room with a Velux balcony window, an open kitchen, and a sleeping area with an en-suite bathroom, creating a pleasant and self-contained living environment. In 2020, the property was fully renovated and refurbished, with a strong focus on comfort and sustainability. For example, 24 solar panels were installed and several rooms are equipped with air conditioning. The combination of history, space, and flexibility makes this property particularly suitable for a wide variety of uses. Consider living and working under one roof, a bed & breakfast (subject to municipal approval), a multi-generational home, or accommodation for extended or blended families. The property offers broad possibilities, including retail, business, and hospitality, thanks to its mixed-use zoning. A characterful building with a story, ready for a new future!
