Vibrant city living

Waterfront enjoys an exceptional location, next to the stadionvijvers (ponds) and just a short distance from the city centre, with several leisure options and a good number of shops, restaurants, and bars nearby.

A new skyline for Waregem

The iconic development bridges the gap between Waregem's southern fringe and the city centre. Ascot and Windsor, the blocks of flats, have been designed with rigorous attention to detail, with spacious entryways, multi-purpose spaces, and user-friendly bicycle lifts. The buildings' distinctive shapes and terraces contribute to the development's unique appeal.

Putting sustainability at the heart of the development

The project's strengths are sustainability and quality. All the flats are heated, cooled, and supplied with hot water by one central system equipped with the most efficient technologies.

Central location

Waterfront's central location makes it a covetable place to live, work and unwind. The site is near Waregem's stadionvijvers (ponds) and bustling city centre, offering the best of both worlds, with countless leisure options, shops, and hospitality establishments nearby.

Moreover, the site is highly accessible thanks to the proximity of several important thoroughfares, making it easy to get to other Belgian and international cities.

An advanced energy system supplies heating, cooling, and hot water from a central boiler room. The latest technologies (including heat pumps, cogeneration and solar panels) make Waterfront an extremely energy-efficient project with a low carbon footprint.
In 2021, Waregem's first four-star hotel opened here. Like the offices, the hotel stands out because of its distinctive round shape and horizontal edges.

Sustainability is a verb

An advanced energy system supplies heating, cooling, and hot water from a central boiler room. The latest technologies (including heat pumps, cogeneration and solar panels) make Waterfront an extremely energy-efficient project with a low carbon footprint. A double win, as residents enjoy a comfortable indoor climate at an affordable price. The developers also paid attention to green spaces, quality of life, and the conservation of the natural surroundings.

Waterfront

A unique partnership with Steenoven and Alheembouw

Waterfront is the result of a joint venture between ION, Alheembouw, and Steenoven. The latter two are sister companies working in tandem, which is unique in property development.

Masterplan

ION joined forces with the two companies to create a master plan to transform the site into a covetable neighbourhood. B2Ai architects and Wielfaert architecten devised an all-in concept, striking a balance between the public and private areas. 

BIM-Award

In 2019, the project partners won a BIM Award for Waterfront, taking home the gold medal for the best commercial and residential development in the Low Countries. The BIM Awards recognise projects developed and built using Building Information Modelling to create a virtual representation in which all information about a building is centralised.
