The apartment is situated between Rue Gît-le-Coeur and Rue des Grands-Augustins, a stone’s throw from the quays on the banks of the River Seine, away from the surrounding hustle and bustle. It is located in an 18th-century former private mansion listed as a historical monument, which has an ashlar façade made up of three vertical rows of doors and windows. It is square in shape, has five storeys including the ground floor, as well as sixth and seventh levels set back slightly from the façade, both covered in panelling.
Its large, arched windows and wrought-iron guard-rails give it a certain character. To reach the upper floors, an entrance code is needed as well as intercom-controlled access. The recently painted communal areas are discretely sober, boasting period stonework and terracotta tiling, wood bullnoses and a wrought iron banister on the stairs leading to the upper floors.
The apartment, located on the second floor, is the only one on this level and can be reached by an elevator. It is made up of two rooms with a layout designed to make most use of the space, which totals approximately 50 m². The entrance door opens into a hall that leads to a lavatory and bathroom. From here, a living room of almost 25 m² and an adjacent fitted kitchen are visible, both of which are bathed in light thanks to their three south-east-facing windows overlooking the street. On the courtyard side, an almost 11-m² bedroom can be reached through the lounge via a sliding door.
This beautifully proportioned property has a ceiling height of almost 3 metres. Exposed timber framing adds extra authenticity.
Lastly, there is also a cellar.
