In the historic center of Mulhouse, a private mansion from the early 19th century, ready for renovation, along with its enclosed landscaped garden. Once the residence of Dr. Paul Curie, grandfather of the illustrious physicist Pierre Curie, and then of a family of Mulhouse industrialists, the property is listed in the circuit of points of interest in Old Mulhouse. The private mansion stands near the Saint-Jean chapel, dating from the 13th century, in the quiet alleys of the city center. It is surrounded by a tree-filled garden of approximately 4 ares, separated from the street by a stone wall. Access is via a double outdoor staircase to the west and through a gate to the east. A small gate leads to a small garden of approximately 70 m² located to the northeast of the property. Built of coated rubble, the house, constructed on a rectangular plan, rises three levels under a mechanical tile roof, punctuated by dormer windows. Its main facade faces the street, divided into five bays. The corbels that adorn the cornice, the pediment of the main door, the corner chains on the first level, and the large windows with decorated wooden shutters provide symmetry and rhythm to the ensemble. The main door made of oak, topped with a small-paned transom, is framed by two pilasters.This description has been automatically translated from French.
