Contemporary apartment Rennes - Paris 6ᵗʰ (75)
EXCLUSIVE LISTING This exceptional address, just steps away from the Carrefour de la Croix-Rouge and the Lutetia, features a secure residence built in 1920 on rue du Cherche Midi. Nestled in its courtyard and located on the third floor, it houses a superbly renovated apartment that benefits from absolute tranquility. In this sumptuous cocoon, where wonderful eclecticism reigns, each object has its purpose and serves as a foundation for the renovation, which naturally revolves around them. The layout - restructured and optimized - enjoys numerous openings on its four exposures and pleasant views of the century-old ash trees in the courtyard. Framed by a stained glass window of blown glass and stainless steel, the entrance opens into a welcoming vestibule that fluidly leads to the double reception area and the study. The woven smoked oak parquet floor, inspired by Venetian designs, serves as a common thread throughout these open spaces, greatly contributing to the soothing ambiance. Spanning from east to west, the intimate living room invites you on a journey and opens majestically into the dining room, where a massive table accommodates about ten guests under a stunning bronze and Murano glass chandelier. On either side of the ethanol fireplace - clad in carved teak that echoes the parquet motif and resonates with the surrounding furniture - the kitchen reveals itself through southern light. Here, a La Cornue range is paired with antique furniture covered in slate. Two magnificent 18th-century brushed oak doors, once used in a château, frame the entrance to the night area. The master bedroom features a palette of sunflower yellow, brown, and black, extending into the bathroom, where a Hollywood bathtub from Devon&Devon is coordinated with Moroccan cement tiles. Perfectly symmetrical and bordering the projector screen, two antique doors are adorned with blown glass from Saint-Just, discreetly concealing the bathroom on one side and the dressing room on the other. A second bedroom is located to the east and enjoys an adjoining bathroom with a hammam. On the opposite side, hidden behind a double mirror door from the 18th century that cleverly conceals the entrance closet, a third bedroom currently serves as an office and opens to the south into greenery. The entire apartment is air-conditioned and boasts a beautiful ceiling height. A large, healthy cellar in the basement complements this rare property, distinguished by the quality of its renovation and its prime location. Luxury and tranquility!
