The house

This Anglo-Norman style house was built in 1890, on a plot extending down to the River Marne. Today, it is set slightly back from the quays but still has a right of way to reach the water’s edge. The building has been carefully maintained, as can be seen in the half-timbering and the bartizans.

The ground floor
The property has four entrances, with the main one from the south. The almost 10-m² entrance hall opens directly into two of the house’s living rooms. On the right-hand side of the entrance, there is a cloakroom lined with cupboards. It also has a lavatory for which the water is supplied via a borehole system from the property's well. A door leads into a small, approximately 28-m² lounge with a billiard table in the centre. It is an invitation to share moments of fun or to occupy yourselves during moments of relaxation by the fireplace in the adjoining dining room. To the left of the entrance hall, there is a library that is currently used as an office, with a surface of almost 18 m². Its walls are lined with ceruse oak custom-made bookshelves and it boasts a mini bar. The wood panelling and wrought-iron cross braces on the windows confer a both raw yet refined character on the room. It has been decorated in harmony with the colours in a reproduction of a Hendrick Avercamp painting - Winter Landscape - whose shades match the various elements that the room comprises.
To reach the almost 40-m² dining room from the office, you will have to pass through the authentic door of the La Roquette prison. The medieval aspect is further enhanced by the considerable ceiling height of 4 metres, the presence of exposed beams, the imposing fireplace and the 16th-century stained-glass windows, contrasting with the modern glass or mirror fittings. Every detail unveils the brightness and uniqueness of the place. A medieval metal gate stands in front of a wooden sliding door and a stained-glass window, separating the room from the dining room and kitchen.
It was built as an annex to the main house around fifteen years ago and has as surface of almost 50 m². It has a north-south orientation and acts as a link between the two parts of the garden. It is equipped with underfloor heating and is entirely glazed. Its high level of quality is evident in the fittings custom-made by a cabinetmaker. The food and products from the pantry in the basement can be easily transported to the kitchen via a hoist. Thanks to a fireplace and a view of the waterfall in the garden, it boasts a unique atmosphere.
In the entrance, a trompe-l’œil door leads to the garden level.
Lastly an imposing wooden staircase leads to the upper floors. The ground floor has a surface of approximately 151 m².

To the left, there is an approximately 6-m² shower room equipped with a walk-in shower and tiled with Jerusalem stone.

A few steps from the first landing lead to the master bedroom, which has a surface of approximately 22 m². It is tucked away in the privacy of an intermediate level, stretches from one side of the house to the other and has an en suite bathroom with a hot tub and lavatory.
