Private mansion Chartres (28)

19th century mansion in middle town of Chartres.
Built during the first half of the 19th century, the property occupies a privileged place in the heart of the city, a stone's throw from the cathedral.
The residence presents itself as an island within the city. Benefiting from a surrounding wall, it is sheltered from all prying eyes.
As soon as you cross the gate, with its remarkable carriage door in oak and stone forming a half-moon, you enter the interior courtyard covered with old paving stones and grass. The main house is flanked on the right by a side wing with arched bay windows and a garage, and on the left by a large outbuilding of around 200 m². Beautiful rear garden with some tall trees and a view of the cathedral spiers. All the characteristics of a bourgeois residence are present here: high ceilings, woodwork, fireplaces (Louis XVI, etc.), lintels, moldings, old Hungarian point parquet floors, wide stairwells and landings, etc.
On the ground floor, the entrance hall leads to the reception rooms: the living room with, in a row and overlooking the rear garden, the dining room of rare elegance with its curved woodwork and the richness of its decorations , the office-library, the kitchen, as well as various secondary rooms.
On the first floor served by a large staircase, 5 bedrooms, some with a view of the cathedral, and on the second floor, 2 other bedrooms, a secondary kitchen and a very large playroom.
Several levels of cellars in the basement complete the ensemble which will require renovation work to restore its former glory. File and visit on request.
