Description
In a private street of New Athens, within the former Hôtel Anna Judic, built in 1883 in collaboration with architect Jacques Drevet. The building showcases a monumental façade richly adorned with sculptures and a large oak carriage entrance gate decorated with wrought ironwork by the Moreau Brothers. On the second floor, accessible by elevator, is an exceptional and unique 159 sq.m (154.26 sq.m Carrez law) apartment, listed since 1995 as an Historical Monument. The apartment features an entrance hall, a sublime reception room of theatrical proportions with a balcony, offering a 7.4-meter ceiling height painted by Clairin, depicting Anna Judic in her various roles, and a monumental stained glass window signed by the artist Charles Champigneulle (a 19th-century master glassmaker). There is also a dining room with a painted ceiling, a separate kitchen, and a guest powder room. Upstairs, accessible by an incredible sculpted wooden staircase, there is a spacious bedroom, a second bedroom, an office, and a bathroom. This extraordinary and unique place transports you to the heart of the 19th century, capturing the remarkable personality of Anna Judic. She designed and arranged this space to match her grand personality, for her performances and lavish receptions.
