The apartment is nestled up on the second floor – the building’s top floor. It has been well designed inside. From the entrance hall, you enter a lounge on the right. This lounge has an adjoining open-plan kitchen. The whole space forms a pleasant 17m² room for everyday life. The space is bathed in natural light from two large south-facing windows. Straight ahead from the entrance hall there is a shower room with a lavatory. To the left, there is a 12m² bedroom, which also faces south. The three windows look down at the calm Villa d’Alésia cul-de-sac – a pleasant backdrop of trees with houses and artists’ studios that are typical of this charming street in the French capital’s 14th arrondissement. The apartment was entirely renovated in 2019 with a modern kitchen that combines wood with a black tone. Pale wood-strip flooring extends across the interior and the windows are double-glazed. Recent insulation work, both on the external walls and loft, have helped push up the energy performance rating to a respectable “D” grade, which ensures energy savings and makes it possible to rent out the apartment without hindrance. The street is free of vehicles. Apart from a playground belonging to the lower secondary school Collège Alphonse Daudet at the end of the cul-de-sac, the road is remarkably calm. You enter the commonhold building from the street Rue d’Alésia. The apartment lies in a small building at the end of a courtyard. The court-facing elevation was restored a few years ago. It is dotted with many plants, maintained by the ground floor’s occupants. The elevation facing the Villa d’Alésia cul-de-sac was restored in 2023 and its metal louvred shutters were repainted. The apartment also has a cellar in good condition.
