IJzerstraat 80-86

Description

In 1855, a well-to-do young man named Jean Louis Pierre built this two-story mansion. Three years prior, he had purchased the property from his father-in-law. He also constructed two annexes, a warehouse, and a sizable cistern. This cistern, located behind the house, has been partially preserved and is now integrated into the landscaping. Unfortunately, Pierre passed away at a young age, just 29 years old. His widow, Maria Mercelina de Windt, became the owner of the property, which originally extended all the way to what is now De Rouvilleweg.

The architectural style of the mansion is straightforward and characteristic of the mid-19th century.
