Achter Grijpen – Exclusive, energy-efficient and move-in ready living in Kumtich

Full purchase possible at 6% VAT (subject to conditions)

Welcome to 'Achter Grijpen', a distinctive residential project in rural Kumtich, between Leuven and Tienen. In a quiet, dead-end street you'll find a small-scale residence with 7 characterful loft apartments and 10 contemporary homes, where space, light, privacy and sustainability take centre stage.

The project stands out for its thoughtful architecture, high-quality finishing and exceptional energy efficiency. All units are fully finished and ready to welcome their new residents – ideal for those seeking a family home, a stylish apartment, or a future-proof investment.

Tranquillity and architecture in balance

Thanks to its location on a dead-end street, you'll enjoy a traffic-calm setting. The loft apartments have a characterful, open feel, while the homes are designed with an eye for space and a smooth connection between indoors and out. Large window sections ensure plenty of natural light, and each unit has its own outdoor space for added privacy.

Move-in ready living

A major advantage is the complete level of finishing: all homes and apartments are painted and fitted with custom-made cabinets. This means you avoid lengthy finishing works, the hassle of finding contractors, and unexpected costs. You're buying a home that's ready to move into right away.

Energy-efficient, future-focused

The nearly energy-neutral (BEN) units have an E-level below 20 and an EPC label A. Each home is equipped with an energy-efficient heat pump with underfloor heating, ensuring a consistent, comfortable temperature without radiators. In addition, every unit has its own solar panels, contributing to lower energy consumption and reduced living costs in the long run.

Possible exemption from property tax

Thanks to the favourable E-level, the units may – under the applicable conditions – qualify for a full exemption from property tax (onroerende voorheffing) for the first five years, a welcome financial benefit on top of the energy savings.

Space, light and privacy

The layout, natural light and connection to the outdoors were central to the design. Large window sections create an open, airy atmosphere, while private outdoor spaces give every resident their own place to unwind.

Outdoor space for everyone

Every home and apartment comes with a private terrace – perfect for a quiet breakfast, a pleasant evening, or a moment of relaxation. 8 of the 10 homes also have a low-maintenance private garden, allowing you to fully enjoy outdoor living without much upkeep.

Parking and cycling

The project includes an underground car park with 12 spaces, secured with a sectional door, complemented by above-ground parking spaces. A parking space is mandatory for each unit:

Above-ground parking space: € 8,500 - Underground parking space: € 17,500

Cyclists are also well catered for, with ample underground and above-ground storage options.

Rural living between Leuven and Tienen

Kumtich combines rural tranquillity with the proximity of Leuven and Tienen. Shops, schools and dining options remain within easy reach, and Tienen train station is just 3.6 km away, offering train connections to Leuven and Brussels – ideal for commuters.

For every type of resident

The homes are perfect for young families thanks to their space, light and (mostly) private garden. The loft apartments appeal to couples and singles looking for a low-maintenance, energy-efficient home. This project is also an attractive choice for those looking to downsize to more comfort, or for property investors.

Purchase at 6% VAT
