Location
The house lies in the Parisian district of La Chapelle, a former town nestled between the hills of Montmartre and Belleville on the road that once linked Paris to the old town of Saint-Denis. In 1860, La Chapelle became part of Paris as the French capital expanded. The street has borne its current name since 1865 in tribute to a general of the former French Empire. The district grew during the industrial revolution, especially thanks to the arrival of railways, which swelled the local population and brought in droves of workers from the countryside. Some houses have resisted urbanisation. This property for sale is a good example of such historical dwellings. Line 2 of the Parisian metro network, built at the start of the 20th century, has helped open up the area. Indeed, the metro station La Chapelle is conveniently only around 100 metres away from the house.
Description
Our opinion
This delightful dwelling is an integral part of its district’s history, blending into the urban environment harmoniously. Detached houses like this one are rare gems in Paris. Indeed, there are fewer than 12,000 of them throughout the French capital. So owning one is a luxury. As soon as you step into the entrance hall, you are struck by the warm welcome of the open-plan fitted kitchen that sets the tone for the rest of the house: a range of rooms, a modern renovation and remarkable spaciousness. A family would find, in this property, a perfect home that is practical and well laid out, without any waste of space and four true bedrooms. Upstairs, a vast terrace extends the interior outwards. This outdoor space could be turned into a green backdrop like an ornamental garden. In this property, you can live your dreams straight away, without any renovation work required.
