Unique 300 m² loft in the historic centre

Description

Just 300 metres from 't Zand, tucked away in a quiet street in the historic centre of Bruges (UNESCO World Heritage Site), you will find this exceptional loft in a former 19th-century brewery and lemonade factory. A rare example of successful repurposing, with deep respect for the past and a distinct contemporary vision. Where brewing kettles once stood and later sparkling lemonades from “De Drie Koningen” were bottled, a small-scale, high-quality loft project was realised in 2008. The name Dry Ceuninghen is no coincidence, but a nod to the craft that once coloured this place. In Bruges, real lofts in authentic breweries are particularly scarce. Many of these buildings disappeared in the past to make way for new construction. That is precisely why this loft is so exceptional: the original shell has been preserved, with robust volumes, characterful structures and a soul that you can feel from the moment you step inside. A major asset is the south-facing terrace with a view of St. Salvator's Cathedral. From the street, there is no flashy architecture. On the contrary, the building is modest and discreet. But anyone who enters immediately experiences that rare feeling: love at first sight. This is not a cold concrete construction, but a home with a heartbeat. With an impressive living area of approximately 300 m², this loft offers generous volumes without compromising on cosiness. On the contrary: this is a loft that feels exceptionally warm. Cosy. Secure. An instant feeling of coming home, right in the middle of the city. The renovation and design are the work of designer Thomas Coucke, who not only redesigned the structure but also was responsible for the refined finish. What makes this loft even more exceptional is its past as a doctor's surgery. A function it performed for years with ease: discreet, professional and in perfect balance with its homely warmth. It is no coincidence that today this property so effortlessly caters to those who want to combine living and working. The layout, volumes and natural light are ideal for a practice, a creative or freelance professional activity, or a refined combination of private and professional use. Here, there is no need to choose. Both worlds flow naturally into each other, without compromising on comfort, tranquillity or appearance.
