The house dates back to the late 19th century. It stands on a 1,800m² plot on one of the calm streets of La Celle-Saint-Cloud. In the corner of the plot, there is a garage that can house several vehicles. Set back from the road, the house enjoys absolute privacy thanks to a wall capped with solid metal panels that are crowned with traditional railings. Elegant stone pillars punctuate the enclosure that surrounds the property.
The entrance gate, set back with a semi-circle from the road, leads onto a drive that runs across a vast garden with several tall trees, including an imposing cedar. The house stands like a manor in the heart of its grounds. It lies around 25 metres from the property’s entrance. Like many burrstone houses of its time, the edifice has a raised ground floor, a first floor and a second floor in the roof space. You reach the ground floor via a front flight of steps above a spacious basement. The house’s facade is embellished with brick strips, brick window surrounds and brick quoins. A roof of interlocking tiles crowns the edifice, which has a front gable wall. Tall arched windows capped with lintels of brick and green ceramics gracefully punctuate the elevations. The house’s total floor area is around 270m², which includes 67m² in the basement. Today, the dwelling includes six bedrooms, spread across the first and second floors. The garage has a floor area of around 70m² and could be extended upwards. You could redesign the interior layout and renovate the house to turn it into a truly comfortable home in the long term.

The house

The ground floor
The ground floor covers around 80m² and has a three-metre ceiling height. The entrance hall is vast, with a floor of old terracotta tiles. From here, a magnificent quarter-turn staircase of solid wood leads upstairs. The hallway connects to a lounge with a dining area. This room is filled with natural light from a bow window. Wood strip flooring extends across the room. A kitchen with a door that leads straight outside adjoins the dining area. There is also a guest lavatory on this floor.

The first floor
The first floor covers around 65m². It has a spacious landing that connects to three bedrooms with floor areas ranging from 12m² to 17m². Each bedroom is bathed in natural light from large double-leaf windows. The master bedroom even has French windows. Indeed, the master bedroom leads out onto a private terrace upon the lounge’s protruding bow window below. Part of the floor is taken up by a bathroom with a shower and bath. Beside it there is a room lined with many wardrobes. Wood strip flooring extends across the entire first floor.

The second floor
The second floor has a similar floor area to the floor below it. Its layout is similar too. A vast landing connects to four rooms of different sizes, ranging from 12m² to 17m². These rooms include three spacious bedrooms and an office. They are all bathed in an abundance of natural light from their large windows. One of them, located above the bathroom on the floor below it, could be converted into a shower room.

The basement
The basement covers around 70m². It is divided into several rooms and includes a workshop, a cellar, a utility room and a boiler room.
