Location
The flat is located in Lyon's lively 1st arrondissement, just off Place des Terreaux, featuring the imposing Hôtel de Ville and Bartholdi fountain, the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon and the Opéra National de Lyon. The surrounding streets abound with independent bookshops, vinyl shops and a variety of other boutiques, not to mention the brasseries that line the cobbled squares.
Above-ground public transport, cycle stations and the metro make it easy to get around in town.
Description
Under its low-pitched roof clad with monk-and-nun tiles, the building has four levels with a ground floor or "entresol lyonnais" (raised ground floor) housing a shop and a restaurant. Stone stringcourses run along the sober, rendered facade which is punctuated with mainly large-paned windows surrounded by dressed stone.
A lift in the inner courtyard and a stone staircase with a wrought iron railing serve the different levels. Access to the building is secured by a solid wooden door with entryphone system, surrounded by a semi-circular stone frame and topped by a moulded transom window. On the ground floor, the commercial premises have their own access from the street.

The flat
Right from the entrance door, the corner living room and its four windows attract the eye. They illuminate the French beamed ceiling, the large overmantel mirror covering an old chimney flue, and the straight strip parquet. Three bedrooms are situated on either side of the living room. The kitchen in the centre overlooks the courtyard and can be accessed from both sides. The master bedroom has a shower room and private closet, the other two bedrooms share a bathroom. There is also a separate lavatory and a cellar in the basement. The windows are all double-glazed, and one of the bedrooms even features a double window. There is parquet flooring in the bedrooms, one of the bathrooms and the lavatories are tiled.
Our opinion
A flat offering a fluid and intelligent layout, a classic decor, a good amount of natural light and a choice location, combining elegance and practicality. Situated in the very heart of Lyon, the flat would benefit from a decorative refresh to underline its style, turning it into a ready-to-live-in property for aesthetes who appreciate the liveliness of a central district and the peace and quiet of a human-scale dwelling.
