A stately interior staircase made of steel and wood connects to the fifth and top floor, which is entirely dedicated to tranquility and privacy.
The master suite, measuring approximately 20 m², is located at the front of the home and opens onto the spacious green roof. Thanks to its elevated location, you’ll be able to enjoy an unobstructed view toward the future Pomppark Zuid. The en-suite bathroom features a spacious bathtub and a vanity with built-in storage.

The building
Desguinlei 218 is a small-scale new-construction residence consisting of a ground floor and five upper floors. The residence has only four apartments and one penthouse, giving the entire building a distinctly residential and discreet character.
The building is equipped with an elevator and a videophone. The basement houses private storage units, a communal bicycle storage area, and a trash room.

–, Markgrave
Markgrave is one of the most sought-after residential neighborhoods south of Antwerp’s city center. The neighborhood is characterized by stately avenues, architecturally distinctive townhouses, and lush greenery, while Antwerp-South and the city center are just a short distance away.
From Desguinlei, you can easily reach Antwerp-South, Harmonie, the city center, and the main in- and outbound highways. Antwerp-South Station and various public transportation connections are also located in the immediate vicinity.
The result is a location that combines urban accessibility with the tranquility and charm of an established residential neighborhood.
Overlooking the future Pomppark Zuid
A special added value for this penthouse is the development of Pomppark Zuid, part of Ringpark Groene Vesten. In the immediate vicinity, an existing green space is being transformed into a new neighborhood park spanning nearly 7.6 hectares.
The park will feature walking trails, grassy areas, trees and landscaping, recreational and play areas, and a large dog-walking area. Rainwater harvesting and infiltration systems will also be integrated into the design. Additionally, noise-reducing infrastructure will be installed along the railroad tracks.
Due to its location on the top floors, this penthouse will have a special connection to this future green environment. The master suite and the adjoining green roof are situated on the side facing the future park and will overlook this new urban green space.
In this way, Desguinlei 218 combines a high-end penthouse experience with an exceptionally attractive location: the Markgrave residential area on one side, Antwerp South and the city center nearby, and a large new green space currently under development on the other.
