A sustainable treat
Although our building is more than 140 years old, it is completely future-proof. It even meets the strict energy standards set for new-build homes. And that is quite special for a building with this history. We do not use gas and all spaces are optimally insulated, both in terms of noise and climate control. This way you can enjoy De Beerze in a sustainable way!
