Location
The flat is located in the 7th arrondissement, a stone's throw from the 6th, between the Rue du Bac, the Rue de Babylone and the Boulevard Raspail. This legendary district of the Left Bank features the Bon Marché department store, elegant boutiques, café terraces and renowned Parisian schools - from primary to higher education - such as Sciences Po and the Penninghen school of art direction and interior architecture. The property is close to the Sèvres-Babylone and Saint-Sulpice metro stations served by lines 4, 10 and 12. Named after the doctor and botanist Pierre-Jean-Baptiste Chomel (1671-1740), the street is next to Square Boucicaut and just a few minutes' walk from the Luxembourg Garden.
Description
On the third floor of a beautiful late 19th century building, the flat is accessed via the main carpeted oak staircase. It is in need of refurbishment. Light floods in from the west and south-east to this full-width flat with a floor area of 84 m². The original decor has been preserved: herringbone parquet flooring, mouldings with friezes and acanthus leaves, dado rails and marble fireplaces with ornamental overmantel mirrors framed in gilded wood. The entrance hall leads to a spacious 32 m² living room illuminated by tall windows with elaborate guardrails. Next follow two bedrooms - one of which includes a walk-in wardrobe - facing the street and the courtyard respectively. A third bedroom could be created in the living room, featuring a dividing wall with a large central opening.
The spacious kitchen and bathroom are ideal for family life. The fitted cupboards provide plenty of storage space. A useful cellar in the basement completes the property.

Our opinion
Situated between the 6th and 7th arrondissements, this property enjoys a prime location, a stone's throw from the famous Bon Marché and numerous prestigious schools. All the original decorative features, which date back to the end of the 19th century, have been preserved. Skilful restoration work will bring out the original nobility of the flat. Its light, independent spaces and potentially new layout will turn it into an attractive family home.
