Apartment Transformation in Hulst – Complete Internal Renovation
This apartment in Hulst is part of a large-scale renovation project in which an existing building was fully reconfigured into multiple high-quality residential units. For this second dwelling, the focus was on a complete internal transformation: from a raw shell space to a move-in-ready apartment with a modern appearance and sustainable finishes.
With a total investment of €320,000 including materials and a project duration of four months, the apartment was entirely rebuilt and tailored to contemporary living standards and comfort.
New Layout and Structural Adjustments
The existing structure offered little residential quality and required a thorough reconsideration of the layout. Internal walls were modified to create logical circulation routes and to make optimal use of the available space. The new floor plan provides clear zoning between living, cooking, sleeping, and sanitary areas, without losing the open character of the apartment.
Special attention was paid to natural daylight. Large window openings and direct access to the outdoor terrace create a strong connection with the exterior and enhance the sense of space, even in the deeper parts of the apartment.
High-Quality Finishing of Living Spaces
The living and sleeping areas are finished with an elegant herringbone wooden floor, adding warmth and character to the interior. Clean, smooth walls and ceilings form a calm base, while carefully positioned recessed spotlights and wall lighting ensure a balanced lighting concept.
The finish has been deliberately kept minimalist, allowing future residents to easily personalize the interior. At the same time, the use of high-quality materials ensures a timeless appearance and long-lasting durability.
Bathroom Design with a Hotel-Like Atmosphere
The bathroom is designed as a tranquil and luxurious space. Large ceramic tiles in natural tones create a serene atmosphere and enhance the feeling of spaciousness. A freestanding bathtub forms the visual centerpiece, while the walk-in shower with glass partition and subtle niche provides functionality without visual clutter.
The bespoke vanity unit in warm wood contrasts elegantly with the stone-like surfaces. Integrated lighting and bronze fixtures give the space a refined, almost hotel-style appearance.
Modern Kitchen as the Functional Heart
The kitchen is fully custom-made and seamlessly integrated with the living area. Matte black cabinetry, a generous kitchen island, and high-quality built-in appliances make the kitchen both practical and visually striking. The worktop offers ample space for daily use as well as for entertaining guests.
Thanks to the open layout, visual and social connection with the living space is maintained, making the apartment suitable for both permanent residence and high-end rental purposes.
Technical Installations and Comfort
All technical installations have been completely renewed. This includes new electrical wiring, modern heating solutions, ventilation systems, and sanitary pipework. As a result, the apartment meets current comfort and safety standards and is prepared for future use without the need for immediate upgrades.
The combination of technology, finishes, and layout makes this home not only aesthetically appealing, but also practical and sustainable.
Project Outcome
This apartment renovation in Hulst demonstrates how a full internal redevelopment can result in a high-quality living space with a clear identity. Within four months, an outdated area was transformed into a modern apartment with strong attention to detail, comfort, and quality.
Grand Renovation managed the entire process—from structural work to final finishes—and delivered a turnkey property ready for its next phase of use.
