Student rooms are in demand
The shortage of student rooms in Kortrijk is greater than ever, and the number of students moving into student accommodation is on the rise. Currently, the City of Kortrijk has just 2586 'official' student rooms, meaning the city needs an additional 1,200 to 2,700 student rooms in the near future. The City of Kortrijk recently introduced a construction freeze as a control mechanism to check that the current supply matches actual demand. If you invest in a student room in Kortrijk, you can rest assured that there is demand for your student room, guaranteeing easy rental.
Opmerkelijke transformatie
Amand 47 has an intriguing history, dating back to the early 20th century. Originally, it was an imposing mansion. During the wars, it was used as a temporary hospital. It has been used to house local artists and even a cultural centre in recent decades. This new transformation into student accommodation, in a sense, is a tribute to the building's history of service, art, and community.

"Students definitely have their place in Overleie. This is an up-and-coming neighbourhood."

Sustainable investments
Amand 47 was designed with the future in mind for investors who value sustainability and ecology.
With more than 500m2 of green space, Amand 47 creates a pleasant environment for residents and contributes to the preservation of nature in the city thanks to its green interior area.
The residence is an energy-efficient building with a small carbon footprint thanks to heat pumps. Besides using renewable energy sources, this technology reduces dependence on fossil fuels.
Solar panels generate green electricity, significantly reducing CO2 emissions, which is conducive to creating a sustainable living environment and reducing energy costs for residents.
Rainwater is harvested and reused for sanitation and for watering the garden. This helps reduce pressure on drinking water sources and contributes to water conservation.
Amand 47's name is a nod to its prime location near Sint-Amandsplein, but the number 47 - the atomic number of silver - is also a reference to the former Kortrijk Zilverhuis, which the architects have visualised with a silver-coloured top floor.
