Behind an elegant entrance, made up of a wrought-iron entrance gate and pedestrian gate, a small, paved path leads to the residence and the first walled garden dotted with many types of trees, notably an American black walnut tree. With its large expanses of pink cladding and green wooden shutters, the “Villa Rose” is emblematic of classical Parisian architecture. As for the symmetrical, two-storey façade with three vertical rows of windows and, in the centre, the moulded splay of the entrance door topped by an oculus, it owes much to the gentleness of Italian architecture. On each level and in each vertical row, there are large-paned windows with period or restored frames The other façade overlooks the second garden and possesses an entrance below a small awning. Lastly, next to the house, enclosed by adjacent fencing, there is a lean-to that has been converted into a small outbuilding.

The house

The ground floor
The entrance opens into a small corridor leading to several rooms. On one side there is a lounge with ceiling mouldings and wainscotting decorated with a marble pattern. On the other side, a large lounge stretches out below a ceiling with mouldings. A fireplace with a classical style mantelpiece made of sculpted marble and a brick hearth is partially embellished with wainscotting and a cleverly decorated cupboard. At the end of the corridor, an open-plan fitted kitchen is bathed in light through a recently restored window. Opposite, a staircase climbs upstairs, while a door leads to the cellar and another one to the boiler room. Lastly, also at the end of the corridor running through the house, there is a door leading into the second garden.
The first floor
This level can be reached by a quarter-turn, open well wooden staircase, alongside which is a wallpapered wall. A landing with chevron-patterned wood flooring leads to a first bedroom with strip-patterned wooden flooring and a black marble fireplace. Thanks to the restored windows, the room is bathed in light. Around the landing, a large hallway leads to a shower room with painted, exposed beams, as well as to a renovated bathroom, with two washbasins and a bath. Lastly, a spacious second bedroom boasts strip-patterned wooden flooring. Light streams into this room through a large window and it also leads into a small utility room boasting terracotta floor tiles, with an oculus window and a door into the first bedroom.
The second floor
This level can be reached by another staircase, with wooden steps and a balustrade, beneath a ceiling with exposed beams. The lading leads to a bedroom also with exposed beams. In a cupboard, a trace of the original wall and wooden beams can be found. On the other side, there is a vast bedroom, with a sloping, cathedral ceiling and an en suite lavatory. The period solid wood door bears the name of the carpenter who made it. Next to this room, there is a small utility room while throughout this level the flooring is made up of terracotta tiles.
The basement
The renovated, vaulted cellar can be reached from inside the house and has rendered walls, while the floor is paved with stone slabs.
