(pt) Exquisite 1-bedroom apartment for rent in city center in Sablon

(pt) Prepare to be charmed from the moment you walk into this 1-bedroom apartment for rent on Place du Grand Sablon, in the center of Brussels. The open-concept kitchen, dining and living room area has wood floors, exposed brick walls, a working fireplace, and it's flooded by natural light from the three large windows that overlook the square. Elegantly decorated, the space has a coffee table between a comfy sofa and two chairs, a flat screen TV, a credenza and shelving unit, and a six-seat dining table. The kitchen is fully equipped, including a dishwasher, and comes with all the necessary small appliances. The bedroom, which has a window toward the back, is spacious and comes with two large wardrobes and a double bed. It also has an ensuite water closet with toilet and sink and a separate shower room. Lastly, hidden away in a bedroom closet, you’ll find the washer and dryer, which may be the icing on the cake for some, but it’s just one more luxury in this exquisite home.

In earlier times, Sablon was just an unused space outside the city walls of Brussels. Today, it’s a neighborhood that has practically been absorbed by the city center. The apartment is located on Grand Sablon, which is one of two main squares in the area. The other, Petit Sablon, is only a 5-minute walk down the street. Both areas are vibrant and alive with busy cafés and restaurants, but if you’re in the mood to sing a chord or two, there is a karaoke bar just 1 minute outside your door. Major sights in this part of town include the Royal Palace. You don’t want to miss a chance to visit at least once, but you might want to walk the beautiful palace gardens, known as Brussels Park, daily. The good news is that living here, you can do just that!
