Wat je fantastisch zult vinden in dit huis
Tastefully renovated home, ideal for couples or couples with up to two children, overlooking Portus Ganda, the ancient core of Ghent, now a yachting harbour. On the ground floor, there is the master bedroom, very much en suite with both a bath and a walk-in shower. The higher floors make optimal use of the location, with large windows oriented towards the vista. The first floor has the kitchen and dining area, the second floor two desks, as well as a standing desk, and Scandinavian reading chair, plus two walls filled with books, mainly English literature. Here, I can also put up a high-quality camping bed to accommodate an extra guest. The top floor is conceived as the relaxation area with a TV and another book wall with art books and other non-fiction but also Belgian comic strips (the entire Tintin collection, in Flemish). The big sofa folds out to a queen-size guest bed, with sturdy pocket spring mattress. From that room's balcony, the cathedral and belfry are clearly visible.
From my home, it's a leisurely 10-minute walk to those landmarks, which form the heart of the city. A grocery store is around the corner, as is a (Turkish) bakery and several other stores and restaurants. The railway station of Gent-Dampoort (direct trains to Antwerp and Bruges) is a 7-minute walk away.

De leukste plekjes bij ons in de buurt
'The Lonely Planet travel guide labelled Ghent as "Belgium's best-kept secret" 12 years ago, but founder Tony Wheeler has now visited the city for himself for "the first, but certainly not last time," he said in a lyrical account. ... Thanks to Bruges, Ghent still is Belgium's "best kept secret," he concluded. "More than worth visiting, as I have now experienced for myself. Spires, centuries-old houses, idyllic water views: this is such an atmospheric city. And it might not be a bad thing for the city itself to not be at the top of the 'must visit' list."' https://tinyurl.com/3e9ykz32
The Van Eyck brothers' world-class Adoration of the Lamb triptych is a top piece, housed at Saint Bavo's Cathedral. Among the beautiful civic buildings are the Belfry and Cloth Hall (Ghent's wealth is based in textiles) and the town hall, with its spectacular Gothic wing and no less impressive Renaissance wing. All these buildings are nicely lit up at night, as I can document in pictures taken on one of my evening walks: in 30' I can easily take a leisurely tour around the entire heart of the city and be back home. Belgium is the home of top quality chocolate and there are several "chocolatiers" within walking distance.
My own neighbourhood is vibrant and ethnically diverse, with a good mix of young families and early-career couples, as well as older people. My home is ideally connected to public transportation (and I therefore don't own a car), located within a stone's throw of Gent-Dampoort station, with several buses on the door-step, en route for the station and suburbs further afield. The Van Eyck public swimming pool is 5' away, a gym is even closer, the Zonder-Naam park sees youths playing football on a daily basis.

Aanvullende informatie
As my life partner lives elsewhere and is happy to have me stay over :-), I can fairly easily make my home available for a weekend or other short break at any time of the year.
This is a non-smoking home.
Please do not bring pets with you.
No cleaning fee ! I rely on my guests to leave the house as clean as you found it.
Of course, you will find freshly made beds and fresh towels.
Although I have several plants, for short stays (ten days or less) no care is needed.
