Architecture
Bellewater was designed with maximum living comfort in mind: it features large windows in the living areas that provide an abundance of natural light, while the views range from the tranquil canal at the front to the sunny, southwest-facing courtyard garden at the rear. The living areas are all connected to the spacious terrace. The building consists of three stories. On the street side, the second floor is set back and features a sloped roof, with terraces facing both the water and the sunny courtyard garden.
Interior & Ambience
The apartments offer plenty of space and flexibility. If you decide to buy off-plan, you’ll have the option to move non-load-bearing walls, allowing you to create a home that fully meets your needs. For the finishes, you can choose from a range of high-quality materials. You are invited to visit the showrooms of our selected suppliers, where you can choose from a selection of bathroom fixtures, kitchen layouts, and a wide range of flooring options. All of this is done under the expert guidance of our experienced Customer Coordinator, Lieselot. This way, we ensure that your new home perfectly matches your personal taste and lifestyle.
Energy & Sustainability
Bellewater aims for a world with zero CO2 emissions for heating and passive cooling, using a geothermal heat pump for both space heating and water heating. This ensures comfortable living conditions in the winter and the possibility of passive cooling during the warmer months. Combined with solar panels, this has a positive impact on the building’s E-level. The apartments are being built in accordance with the latest energy standards, with a focus on sustainability and energy efficiency.
