In Tours, just five minutes’ walk from the central TGV railway station, the city centre and its shops, this character house offers approximately 240 sq m of accommodation and a layout particularly well suited to family life. It naturally brings together two architectural styles and two periods: a historic residence built in 1840 and an interconnected extension dating from the 1950s.
The original house, which is in good condition, establishes its identity from the moment one arrives. An outstanding glazed entrance canopy lends the façade the elegant appearance of a substantial town residence. Inside, the sitting room and reception room are arranged around a central staircase which structures the volumes and creates a coherent flow through the house. This layout preserves the individual character of each room while providing attractive reception spaces that connect naturally with one another.
The upper floors of the historic residence contain five bedrooms, including a principal suite. This generous capacity makes the house easy to envisage as a family home, with ample room for children and visiting relatives while retaining private spaces for everyone.
Linked directly to the original residence, the extension introduces a different yet highly complementary architectural character. It contains a spacious ground-floor living room facing the garden. This room enjoys a direct relationship with the outside and provides a welcoming setting for everyday family life, shared meals and informal entertaining. The transition between the nineteenth-century house and this later addition creates a balanced whole, combining the historic reception rooms with a generous living space opening onto the garden.
Upstairs in the extension are an additional bedroom, a study and a shower room. Depending on individual requirements, the study may remain a dedicated workspace or serve as a seventh bedroom. The property therefore provides six established bedrooms with the potential for a seventh, offering valuable flexibility for home working, guests or an older child seeking greater independence.
The garden pleasantly extends the living space and brings a welcome sense of openness to this urban setting. The location is another of the property’s defining advantages: Tours central TGV station, the city centre and local shops can all be reached in approximately five minutes on foot. This makes everyday travel straightforward and allows residents to enjoy life in Tours without relying systematically on a car.
With its generous surface area, excellent accommodation and successful combination of two distinct periods, this is an unusual proposition in central Tours. It will appeal particularly to a family seeking a character home with a garden and a flexible interior, while remaining within immediate reach of transport links and city-centre amenities.
