High house designed by Jacques De Weerdt in 1909, a curious mixture of Beaux-Arts (the sculpted heads) and Art Nouveau for the doors and windows.

The architect liked sculpted stones for balconies, window sills and drip edges.

The facade ends with two pilasters surrounding a rounded cornice and a mosaic which is now unfortunately very damaged.
