The rapper\u2019s home at Kanaal\u2014the art-and-living complex created by visionary designer Axel Vervoordt near Antwerp\u2014quickly went into contract after quietly hitting the market at the end of last year, according to sources familiar with the sale. An accepted offer is in place, though the final price and closing timeline remain under wraps.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">West acquired the spacious apartment in 2021 and spent extended stretches there while working closely with Vervoordt and his team. At the time, local reports frequently placed him around Wijnegem\u2014one of the most expensive municipalities in Flanders\u2014where his presence became something of an open secret.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">More from Robb Report<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"kanye belgium home Kanaal Axel Vervoordt \" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/d870949ffa6d50b98a986dd4c6b1e1f5.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>kanye belgium home Kanaal Axel Vervoordt <\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The images shown reflect the apartment when it was fully finished with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It has since been stripped back to its structural shell\u2014a status very much\u00a0in keeping with West\u2019s habit of gutting properties, from Malibu to Wyoming.\u00a0Set on the second floor, the roughly 2,260-square-foot residence was offered in casco condition, leaving a future owner with a blank canvas of volume, light, and exposed concrete.

After their divorce, Kardashian bought West out and later expanded and renovated the property, largely preserving Vervoordt\u2019s original vision.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Demolishing the interiors of homes has carried through many of West\u2019s real estate experiments, though with mixed results. In 2021, he paid $57.3 million for a Tadao Ando\u2013designed house in Malibu and took it down to its concrete shell before he\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/kanye-west-former-malibu-home-143000843.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:sold it at a spectacular loss;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sold it at a spectacular loss<\/a>.
