A 19th-century house with a 500m² floor area and 2,600m² of grounds on a private island on the River Seine in Vaux-sur-Seine, a village in France’s Yvelines department, just west of Paris. The house is nestled on a private island. The elegant edifice was once a prized restaurant among highly sought-after dining spots on the banks of the River Seine. The dwelling forms part of a series of properties spread out on either side a road that runs from one end of the island to the other, alongside the River Seine. A low wall with wrought-iron railings separates the property from this road and demarcates its garden. The burrstone house, built in the 19th century, is crowned with a roof of flat tiles. The dwelling is long and rectangular and it is raised in relation to the garden to protect it against any risk of flooding due to possible rises in the river’s water level. This property has therefore never actually undergone any damage from flooding, even during the extraordinary rises in water level in the last century. The edifice has a ground floor, a first floor and a roof space that could be converted. It offers a liveable floor area of 500m². It has two entrance doors – a side door and a main door in the middle of the facade. A terrace extends in front of this facade. The house’s reception rooms offer a total floor area of 100m². Upstairs, there are five bedrooms, including one that is part of a 70m² suite. There is also an office that could be turned into a spare bedroom. And there are six bathrooms. Moreover, the roof space could be converted. The property’s landscaped garden covers 2,600m².
