04. Former Home of Architect François Hemelsoet

This private residence on the Avenue Princesse Elisabeth was the home of the architect Franz (or François) Hemelsoet. Completed in 1902, its distinctive façade combines Neo-Renaissance and Art Nouveau architectural features. In particular, the house has a remarkable Art Nouveau glass and wrought-iron front door, originally decorated with stained-glass panels featuring iris plants and handles in the shape of lizards. The reception rooms include a Flemish Neo-Renaissance dining room and a Louis XVI salon, divided by a timber arcade. The rear of the floor is covered by a semi-circular veranda.
