Noord

Above the sea.

A private duplex on the Zeedijk in Knokke. Oak underfoot, limestone at the fire, and the North Sea filling the glass.

Reserve
Living room with a curved sofa, a limestone hearth, and the sea beyond a black-framed door Stone kitchen island and a set table beside blinds open to the coast Principal suite with a green bedspread and a freestanding bath under the eaves

The top two floors, just past Lichttorenplein.

Morning light comes in off the water. A second terrace looks back over Het Zoute, so breakfast and the evening drink can both happen in the sun. The rooms stay quiet: plaster, a fire set into the stone, and a wine wall in sight of the sofa.

You have the whole duplex. Nothing about it raises its voice.

  • Sleeps six
  • Three suites
  • Two baths
A gas fire set into a long limestone hearth, with lit shelves of shells and books
The living room opening onto a terrace and an empty view of the sea
From the sofa, nothing but water.
