Location
In the midst of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, the little town in which this property stands has a large industrial infrastructure made up of companies that are leaders in their field. It is very near to Saint-Etienne. This large town, classified as a “city of design” by Unesco, has a history that is heavily linked to industrial modernity as well as a wealth of creators and inventors. Constantly changing, its dynamics link art and industry.
Châteaucreux TGV train station is but 15 minutes from this property whilst Lyon and Saint-Exupéry international airport are less than an hour away.
Description
The large, luxurious home
This large, luxurious house is constructed from brick, facing its garden. It stands in a U-shape with two wings, one polygonal and the other rectangular, both of which have been given the appearance of towers. Large windows overlooking the garden, some of which are arched, provide great luminosity. A garden-level terrace in the centre of the house, between the towers, leads to the small, walled garden via a few steps. It is delimited by balustrades, just like the terrace on the second floor. Spanning a floor surface area of approx. 200 m² per level, this property has, over time, been divided vertically into two dwellings courtesy of two interior stairways. Communication between the two sections could easily be re-established.
The small outbuilding in the garden
A small, stone outbuilding, spanning approx. 55 m², stands in the garden, adjoining the garden wall. Its openings are framed with red bricks to match those of the main house. This little house is covered with a single-slope roof. The one hundred year old trees in the garden form a screen of vegetation, appearing to isolate the property from the rest of the world. Two metal gates open on to a narrow street.
Our opinion
This house bears witness to the region’s history; fortunes were made in industry there in the late 19th, early 20th century. The brick courses are reminiscent of the north of France, where manufacturing and mining were also booming. With its wings resembling towers, its terraces and its overhanging roofs, this residence also has an air of a Florentine villa. All of these references will be a source of inspiration for the works that will have to be carried out by the new owners. Style, spacious rooms and copious amounts of light flooding in through large windows are all there. It even has a garden, with an outbuilding, despite being in the centre of town. Its floor surface area is such that division into several flats could be a possibility.
