Superb Renovated Character Farmhouse with Independent House

At just 1.5 km from Pairi Daiza, in the heart of a charming village within the municipality of Lens, this remarkable character property dating from 1850 has undergone an exceptional architectural renovation, successfully combining the authentic charm of traditional farmhouses with the comfort and elegance of a contemporary residence.

Offering more than 450 m² of living space on a beautifully landscaped and fully enclosed 1,900 m² plot, this unique estate consists of three distinct buildings: an elegant main farmhouse, a former barn transformed into a spectacular living space, and a separate independent house. Together, they provide outstanding versatility for a large family, a professional practice, a guesthouse business, or multigenerational living.

Beyond a magnificent dolomite-covered courtyard, fully secured by an electric gate and pedestrian entrance, the property reveals a private and perfectly organised setting, with parking for up to eight vehicles in addition to three garages.

The main farmhouse features a spacious fully equipped kitchen, a characterful dining room enhanced by an open fireplace, a bespoke library, a warm and inviting living room with a blue stone fireplace, and an independent office.

The upper floor, beneath an exposed timber framework, comprises a stunning master suite with double dressing rooms and a full bathroom, together with two additional bedrooms and a second bathroom.

The barn, thoughtfully redesigned in a contemporary style, offers an impressive leisure room or multimedia lounge, complemented by a steel-and-glass walkway leading to three further bedrooms featuring mezzanines and built-in storage.

The independent house forms a fully self-contained dwelling with a living room, equipped kitchen, utility room, boiler room, vaulted cellar, bedroom and open-plan bathroom. This autonomous space is ideally suited for a professional practice, guest accommodation, a holiday rental or welcoming family and friends in complete comfort.

The outdoor areas are a true landscaped haven, designed with the same attention to detail: extensive terraces facing east, south and west, a beautifully planted ornamental garden with remarkable species, espalier fruit orchard, chicken coop, stable, storage buildings and numerous outbuildings.

The quality of materials and finishes is exceptional, including blue stone, Italian and Tuscan sandstone, solid oak, afzelia wood joinery, double glazing, comprehensive insulation, two oil-fired boilers, two pellet stoves, rainwater harvesting, a groundwater well, a complete alarm system and video intercom.

The property notably offers seven bedrooms, three bathrooms, two kitchens, two living rooms, a library, an office, a large games room, three garages and numerous ancillary buildings.

With an EPC rating of C, this rare residence combines prestige, authenticity and functionality in a highly sought-after rural setting, close to Ath, Mons and Enghien, and approximately 45 minutes from Brussels.

A truly exceptional property for discerning buyers seeking a unique place to live, where timeless charm meets impeccable renovation quality.
