Prachtige Art Deco villa 👍🇧🇪

Tof, vergeet niet de kelderverdieping te bezoeken met de art deco kunstvoorwerpen 🙂

Maison art nouveau rénovée par la fondation Boghossian après de multiples utilisations. Peu de meubles. Joli par arboré et une des premières piscines pour l'époque et la région. Visite agréable, peu de monde et des expositions temporaires. Pas nécessaire de réservé à l'avance. Entrée 12€.
