Description
UNIQUE AND EXCEPTIONAL. Overlooking a beautiful leafy courtyard behind a hidden independent entrance on the Rue de Rivoli, facing the Jardin des Tuileries and a stone's throw from Place Vendôme, this elegant reception apartment presents 297.92 sq.m of living area and a 28 sq.m terrace. Spread over three main levels connected by a majestic staircase and a private elevator, the property boasts an 18th century decor entirely recreated by decorator Didier Rabes using materials of the highest quality (woodwork, mirrors, stucco, doors enhanced with 18th century decorations, marble and artistic ironwork, herringbone parquet flooring), the perfect blend of refinement and modern comfort. On the ground floor, you will find the entrance and its vestibule, a replica of Nicolas Ledoux's Café Militaire on rue Saint Honoré (whose original doors are today preserved at the Carnavalet Museum), which leads to a wood-panelled living room, a home office, a dining room, a library and a guest WC. On the mezzanine floor (backing onto a 28 sq.m terrace), there are two large suites, each with a dressing room and bathroom/WC. The top floor is made up of a 30 sq.m apartment in a contemporary style which can be separated from the rest of the property, comprising living room/kitchen, bedroom and bathroom/WC. On the lower level, there is a large kitchen-diner, a laundry room, a service bedroom and a WC. Sold with a large cellar. A unique and exceptional residence, idyllically located opposite the Tuileries, which will appeal to lovers of 18th century aesthetics.
