We live in the center of Schaarbeek (Brussels) It is a nice neighborhood to walk in with lots of art nouveau houses and just enough cozy cafés and restaurants. The great Museums of Brussels are 10 minutes away by public transport. The house dates from 1865, almost as old as Belgium. We have a garden with old threes and a garage. There are two large and one small bedroom with two single and one double bed.
Guest access
2 floors of the house
Garage in the back of the garden
Notes
We live on the first two floors of the house. The second and third floor are apartments we rent out. The staircase is shared so you might encounter our neighbors (which are very nice) in the hallway.
