The former site of the Luhns soap factory is being given a new lease of life as a future-oriented business park. De Stokerij consists of 41 versatile SME units spread over six commercial buildings. With floor areas ranging from 106 to 390 sqm, the business park offers the ideal base for every entrepreneur. Storage, a workshop, offices or a even showroom: buyers can tailor the layout entirely to their needs and even combine several units. As such, De Stokerij provides a good solution to the pressing demand for commercial modular buildings.
What is attractive today must remain so tomorrow. De Stokerij wants to be a green, energy-efficient working environment. The business park is completely gas-free and ready for the installation of solar panels and heat pumps. Smart water management means rainwater is reused and infiltrated thanks to rainwater catchment, water drainage infiltration systems and well-designed landscaping. In short: the ideal place for anyone who believes in sustainable entrepreneurship.
Thanks to its location on the border between Flanders and Wallonia, close to the E19, R0 and E429 motorways, De Stokerij guarantees excellent accessibility for cars and trucks. Each unit has at least two private parking spaces and a special waiting area is provided for trucks. Cyclists and pedestrians have also been taken into account: the new path to Gieterijstraat provides easy access to Lembeek station and town centre. Three covered bicycle sheds offer space for 33 bicycles.
De Stokerij combines sustainable entrepreneurship with a pleasant place to work. Strategically placed trees underscore the natural character of the green Zenne River Valley. A pedestrian walkway and a well-thought-through traffic plan for freight traffic increase comfort and safety for site users. Thanks to the timeless façade design and the many skylights, every SME unit has plenty of natural light for a pleasant working environment.
With shell units starting at €195,000 (excluding VAT), De Stokerij also offers investors an attractive opportunity with growth potential. The demand for high-quality commercial buildings is clearly on the rise. Investing in SME business parks guarantees a carefree return on your investment and a strong increase in value in the long term. Moreover, you benefit from a property tax exemption for five assessment years. An attractive added benefit!*
The preparatory work is currently ongoing. Construction of De Stokerij is set to start at the end of 2025, with completion scheduled for early 2027. The SME units will be offered as shell units, allowing owners to furnish them to their own specifications.
* The amount of the tax exemption is limited to €4,000 per unit. Any changes in legislation may affect the content and applicability of this information.
