With approximately twenty co-owners, this early 19th-century, six-storey building has an understated façade, cadenced by moulded wraparound stringcourses and symmetrical rectilinear windows protected by finely-crafted guardrails and wooden louvred shutters. Safeguarded by a street entrance accessible via a key fob, as is the gate that precedes its interior entrance hall, the building’s common areas are meticulously maintained and its occupants are treated to considerable peace and quiet, which is bolstered by the building’s secure entrance. As for the flat, located on the 5th floor, it is accessible via an original, untreated oak staircase with a wrought-iron handrail, as well as a lift.
The flat’s grey-painted wooden front door, opens onto a narrow, tiled foyer, which provides access, behind another door, to the north-eastern-facing living room of approximately 14 m², the window of which has splendid views of the Seine and one side of Paris’s City Hall. With original straight-plank hardwood floors and exposed ceiling beams, this room also has a wide built-in cupboard that provides plenty of storage space. In addition, a small hallway leads to the other parts of the flat, such as the tiled kitchen, which abuts the living room and could easily be reunited with the latter, creating one large open space, after some minor adjustments are carried out.
Thanks to the flat’s balanced layout, circulation is facilitated between the different rooms, which are all sheltered from view. As for the bedroom, it is located on the southern side of the flat and has a balcony with a metal guardrail decorated with floral motifs, from where one can enjoy the sunset over Paris, while admiring Notre-Dame Cathedral in all its splendour, whereas the bathroom and lavatory are located on the flat’s northern side, as are built-in storage cupboards. Last, but not least, this dual-aspect flat with an exceptional location in the historic heart of ancient Lutetia, also comes with a cellar.
