Magnificent Restored Estate from 1614 on a Historic ±3 ha Property
This exceptional historic estate, featuring a main residence and several outbuildings, was built in 1614 and is set on a ±3-hectare domain between Knokke and Ghent, near Sint-Martens-Latem. Fully restored and renovated with great respect for its authenticity, the property was enhanced by renowned decorator and art expert Axel Vervoordt, who infused it with a minimalist and timeless aesthetic. The landscape was designed by the world-famous landscape architect Jacques Wirtz, known for his structured compositions of majestic hedges, picturesque pathways, and gardens that perfectly harmonize with the estate’s historic character.

Frequently Asked Questions
Below you can find some Frequently Asked Questions.
What are the notary costs when buying luxury real estate?
Notary costs typically consist of several components, such as fees, administrative and deed costs, searches and taxes/levies. For luxury real estate, the costs follow the same legal rules, but in practice files are often worked out more thoroughly (e.g. additional file checks, company structures, timing around a second home). Your notary can best estimate the total costs in advance based on your purchase price and situation.
