Mid-20th century architecture, this charming 71 m2 garden level apartment with an 18 m2 outbuilding is built around a 51 m2 secret garden in the heart of the city, a few steps from Notre-Dame du Mont.
 
Redesigned in 2017 by architect Benjamin Descostes, the apartment is the result of a precise renovation promoting the art of living, all opening onto the beautifully planted garden where a century-old mulberry tree, a Japanese maple, privets and an albizia coexist harmoniously, bringing a touch of serenity to the city. The private entrance, through the garden, immediately sets the tone. The exterior provides a link with the main house and the outbuilding. An elegant wrought iron glass roof majestically welcomes the open and welcoming kitchen-diner, creating a fluid link between the living spaces. The omnipresent wood is the common thread throughout. The marriage of white and purity, combined with raw concrete and net curtains, offers a striking contrast, giving a timeless look to this remarkable interior. On the living room side, a pine storage module punctuates the space while providing welcome functionality. It also serves as a passage to the sleeping area, where a central cube houses a marble-clad bathroom. Located above the 17 m2 garage, the outbuilding houses a second bedroom with its own bathroom, the floor of which is covered in old tiles. A cellar completes this property.
 
A unique work of art with a design that is as refined as it is functional.
