House with terraceBesançon (25)

In the heart of Besançon, just a few steps from the Boucle district, this remarkable 250m2 house is located on a pretty plot of land of more than 46 ares (more than 4600m2). Its architecture and positioning retain the spirit of a past marked by the emblematic owner of the place. A unique Bisontine house dating from 1883, it was in fact imagined and created by the famous painter Emile Isenbart. From its views of the Doubs and its green park, he was able to draw, throughout his career, real sources of inspiration for many of his works. Built in stone, its spaces were designed by and for the painter, creating a singularity in its distribution. The entrance opens onto a hall with one of the centerpieces of the house: its solid wood staircase marked by its stained glass panels. The ground floor includes the living space. On the left, an office has access through glass doors to the painter's former workshop. Here, the volumes are most remarkable. A ceiling height of more than 4m which is highlighted by its original French ceiling. Facing him, the dining room is colored with brightly colored stained glass windows and several works painted on canvases mounted on the story of La Fontaine's fables. Continuing on, the kitchen space needs to be completely rethought. On the first floor, a bathroom area to be redesigned and several bedrooms. On a half-level, the second artist's studio extends above the first. The northern lights and the height of 4m again testify to a use conducive to the work. Accessible on the mezzanine, one bedroom enjoys a beautiful view of the Doubs. The last level consists of the old maids' rooms as well as the attic which can be converted with approximately 140 m2 of usable space. The slate roof is recent and in perfect condition. The floors, the painter's frescoes, the French ceiling and the many stained glass windows still present give the certain historical character of this house. The land includes two terraces, a meadow and a wood. The house is built on a cellar and has a garage which overlooks the street. The architectural line and the numerous elements of character will allow newcomers, families, collectors, musicians, dancers, to give free rein to their imagination in order to modernize its volumes while preserving the spirit of the place. A unique work that demands to be reborn. ENERGY CLASS: E / CLIMATE CLASS: E.
