Burenberg appeals to a broad audience. The development has a large central park garden as well as collective gardens. The site is car-lite because all parking is underground. The result is an abundance of greenery, space, and tranquillity. Burenberg is a tiny paradise in the heart of the city.
Coliving is rapidly gaining popularity, and research shows that there will be a growing demand for quality student rooms in Leuven in the coming years, making the Community Entity an exciting opportunity for savvy investors.
Co-living, the future of urban living
More than ever, people seek connection(s), comfort, and flexibility. Coliving, whereby people share spaces, time, and resources, provides a solution. The concept is gaining popularity worldwide, including in Belgium's central cities. Thanks to its knowledge economy, Leuven attracts a large number of young professionals and expats, a group that is interested in coliving opportunities. Many students also stay on after their graduation. KU Leuven, UZ Gasthuisberg, Haasrode Research Park, large companies such as IMEC and AB-Inbev, and the proximity to Brussels ensure there is huge potential for tenants.
You either choose the student accommodation in College House (offering a high level of comfort and quality furniture) or the innovative We House coliving concept. Each unit is home to ten to twelve carefully selected housemates. Besides a private area, they share a trendy furnished communal kitchen, living, and sitting area.
Tastefully appointed interiors and high-quality materials are combined to offer residents a sophisticated living experience in Park Residences. The attractive outdoor space acts as a natural extension of the home.
Luxury reigns supreme in the exclusive flats and penthouses of Luxury. From stylish furnishings to high-quality amenities, every aspect of these homes has been designed to meet the personal requirements of their occupants.
These attractive single-family dwellings with three or four bedrooms cater to the needs of families. The high-quality modern architecture with atriums, large open spaces, and split levels maximises light, with roof terraces adding outdoor space.
A well-thought-out master plan
Burenberg is a large-scale real estate project with 410 units, spanning 18,500 m2 of land. Accounting for an impressive investment value of over 100 million euros, the project makes a positive contribution to Leuven's urban development, creating a sustainable and modern living environment.
Strong neighbourhood participation
Burenberg offers the best of both worlds. Residents get to live in green surroundings and a cosy neighbourhood while being just a stone's throw from Leuven's lively city centre. Given the many nearby shops, cultural institutions, sports facilities, restaurants, bars and amenities, there is always something to discover. However, what makes Burenberg even more special is that this is one of the last large inner-city developments of this scope in Leuven.
With the support of a top team of experts
The architecture was developed by several leading architectural firms, including POLO Architects, C+S, OYO Architects, aNNo Architects and BUUR. Together with ION, they have created a well-balanced and aesthetically pleasing residential environment that ties in seamlessly with Leuven's urban character. Support from key partners such as the Broeders van Liefde, Woonzorgnet-Dijleland, and Dijledal attests to the strong commitment to the community and the well-being of residents.
