Exceptional historical property of municipal or even supra-municipal importance
This house will appeal to lovers of authenticity and preserved architecture, while offering a warm and functional living environment.
Combining heritage character with timeless charm, this residence represents a remarkable testimony to an era, an architectural style, and exceptional craftsmanship. Its authenticity, harmonious volumes, balanced proportions, and elegant openings give it an obvious architectural value, reinforced by its perfect integration within its built environment.
Located on the edge of the Roua alley, in the heart of a dense urban fabric, this four-story house is built on a slight slope. Its base, raised on two levels, as well as the upstream parts of the side facades and the north facade, are made of rendered masonry and painted white, probably with lime, testifying to a quality old cladding. The upper floors are made of logs, reinforcing the authentic aesthetic of the building.
The gable roof, covered with terracotta tiles, and the numerous cross-braced joinery openings add to its period charm. The west facade is distinguished by its overlapping wooden balconies, the upper one of which has been enlarged and reinforced, while the lower one rests on sturdy braces. The main access is through an arched door on the first floor, reached via a stone staircase with a wooden railing, offering a character that is both noble and welcoming.
A preserved interior, imbued with warmth and elegance
The building is in good general condition, having undergone no alterations that would compromise its vernacular character. It thus retains all of its historical exterior substance, with its imposing masonry base, authentic openings, and wooden side galleries.
The interior layout includes:
• 1st level: three bedrooms
• 2nd level: a large living room decorated with a magnificent soapstone stove, a centerpiece which gives the space a warm and refined ambiance, a kitchen, a bathroom and a hall
• Ground floor: friendly wine cellar, WC/shower, cellar, technical room and cistern
Annexes and outdoor spaces
The property benefits from particularly attractive additional facilities:
• Two outdoor courtyards, one covered, the other open, offering charming relaxation areas
• A private parking space
• A deposit
