This Art Deco town house was built in 1923 in Gullegem to designs by Remi Lemahieu for the sexton A. Vuylsteke. Its brick facade plays on contrast with the white-rendered parts: gable, frieze, toothed lintels and window mullions. The relief is heightened by three-sided, rounded and two-sided oriels, and a niche with a statue of a saint stands above the central door; the joinery has since been renewed.
