Wide-fronted house of two bays and three storeys under a pitched roof, designed by the architect J. Lippens according to the façade inscription and dated 1925 by archival records. The white rendered cornice façade in the Art Deco style has a narrow door bay and a wider window bay framed by decorated pseudo-pilasters, with a bay window and balcony on a trapezoidal plan. The repeated relief motifs (ribs, small triangles, mouldings) include the triangle, which recurs in the coloured leaded glass. The house is recorded in the Flemish architectural heritage inventory.
Translated from the French original.
