Location
Set in the historic centre of Beaune, this flat is 10 minutes from slip roads for the A6 motorway, a crossroads providing links to Paris or Geneva in 2½ hours and Lyon airport in 1½ hours. The train station is just a 10-minute walk, as are numerous food shops, markets, restaurants and hotels. Beaune aerodrome, a 15-minute drive away, is open to civil aircraft. The town, in the heart of the “Climates of Burgundy” (Burgundy vineyards), classified on the UNESCO World Heritage List, acts as the Burgundy wine capital. Its world renown is also based on the wine auction held by the Hospices every third Sunday in November.
Description
The street facades represent a succession of buildings, the walls of which are interspersed with carriage doors and discreet entrance doors. Set slightly back, the main entrance door links two buildings, with different heights and roof dormers, unified by a stone-coloured facade. Three steps go up into the building’s vestibule, with exposed Burgundy stone block walls and a travertine floor. Winding around its stairwell, a stone stairway, embellished with refined, wrought iron railings topped with a wooden handrail, goes upstairs.

A through flat, it has two windows overlooking the interior courtyard and two large windows with elegant railings, on the street side, topped with roof dormers.

Our opinion
The architecture of this property blends superbly with the centre of town Once through the front door of the flat, its size, the height of its ceiling and its unusual roofing framework enhance the feeling of space. Opening the windows, residents can lean against elegant, scrolled railings and take advantage of the unique view over the town’s elegant architectural heritage, a spectacle all on its own. There is no doubt that this haven manifests a feeling of timelessness, a deep serenity and the certainty of well-being. Another way of living the “pro remedia remedio animae” (salvation of souls). Purchasing a property in Beaune is a sound investment and its rental income is guaranteed.
