Some houses reveal themselves as if by magic. In Orléans, in the sought-after Saint-Marceau district, this elegant bourgeois residence, with a total floor area of 247sqm (221sqm of living space), offers a subtle blend of heritage and contemporary architecture. Behind its characterful facade lies an interior where moldings, wainscoting, and a fireplace coexist with more modern lines, in a balance that is both unique and masterful. The centerpiece of the house is the vast reception area. The living room and dining room open generously onto the garden and benefit from a wonderful sense of spaciousness. Above, a suspended glass walkway spans the space with lightness. Both functional and sculptural, it becomes the unifying element of the house and offers, from its passage, a spectacular view of the living room. A true architectural statement that is enough to give this residence its identity. On the ground floor, a beautiful entrance hall provides access to the various rooms. A generously sized kitchen, designed as a living space in its own right, invites shared moments, while a study provides a quiet place to work. The house then unfolds level by level, each revealing a distinct atmosphere. On the first floor, the master suite forms an intimate sanctuary comprising a bedroom, a dressing room, a bathroom, and a laundry room. The second floor houses the children's and guest area with three bedrooms and a shower room. From these floors, the views extend towards the park, contributing to a rare feeling of openness and spaciousness. At the rear, the garden becomes a natural extension of the house. Landscaped with trees and protected from prying eyes, it creates a true haven of greenery in the heart of the city. A terrace, intimate spaces, and a perfectly integrated swimming pool define an exterior with a decidedly private feel. Beyond this, a large park at the rear of the property adds an exceptional dimension to this setting. Here, every space seems designed to create a haven: al fresco dining, gathering around the pool, enjoying the tranquility, or simply letting the house's spaciousness resonate with nature. Air conditioning in the living areas, a garage, and the immediate proximity to amenities complete the package. Impeccably maintained and move-in ready, this house is just waiting to begin a new chapter. A place where the old doesn't try to disappear behind the new, but where the two complement each other perfectly. A house with character, unexpected architecture, and a secret garden.
