A 171-m² apartment with a south facing balcony and three bedrooms, in the 9th arrondissement, on square Montholon - ref 611079
A 171-m² apartment with a south facing balcony and three bedrooms, in the 9th arrondissement, on square Montholon.
A wooden carriage gate leads to a seven-storey, stone building whose facades are dotted with wrought-iron guard-rails, narrow balconies on the second and fifth floors, as well as windows topped by mascarons, which are an ornamental signature of Haussmannian constructions.
On the first floor, the landing leads to the reception apartment alone. A double-leaf door opens into an entrance hall leading to an approximately 30-m² lounge and an around 23-m² dining room. Both are south facing and are bathed in light. The 3-metre ceiling height gives the property a sense of grandeur, which is further enhanced by the period mouldings and marble fireplaces.
Nine French windows punctuate the facade and open onto a large, narrow balcony, which is a veritable belvedere overlooking Square Montholon, with an unobstructed view of the greenery.
To the right, a corridor leads to three vast bedrooms, each with a surface of more than 18 m² and two of which open out onto the balcony. The third faces the courtyard and enjoys a quieter ambiance. A shower room and separate lavatory stand near to the bedrooms.
To the left of the entrance hall, a hallway leads to a spacious dining kitchen, which has been designed as a veritable living room.
The flooring is made up of oakwood chevron parquet in the main rooms and straight wood stripped flooring in the hallways. Currently, all the flooring is covered with loose-laid carpet, which makes it easy to return to decoration with the period materials. There is much storage space spread throughout the different zones.
The apartment requires comprehensive renovation, providing the opportunity to restore this characterful property to its former glory, boasting spacious volumes in a sought-after location.
The barA small bar between the lounge and one of the bedrooms was decorated with a fresco by illustrators Daniel Guérin and Raoul Laborne in 1945. It possesses French windows that open onto the balcony.
