The Clock Pavilion – In the heart of the Halles de Tours

Historic building on the famous Place Gaston Paillhou, this house offers 353m2 of floor space, facing the Halles de Tours.

Once overlooked by a remarkable stone pendulum, the clock pavilion from which it takes its name, had several lives: bank and depository in the 19th century until its configuration as a private dwelling today.

Its cut stone facade is adorned with metal sections framing three large bay windows with small timbers, to the most beautiful effect on the east side, with remarkable decorative ornaments, as well as a second independent entrance on the Place Jean Meunier side, to the south. On the ground floor, a first floor offers an open living space, of more than 130m2, as well as an independent kitchen with glass roof. Two solid wooden staircases, on either side of this plateau, lead to the 1st floor, divided into two parts: Under a capital with a metal structure, a nod to the old neighboring Halles de Tours, a room used as an office currently 67m2 gives free rein to a unique rehabilitation. A vestige of an important commercial past, this capital construction has beautiful openings through the roof, as well as an interesting mix of style brought by the cut stone, wood and metal structure. On the other, a sleeping area made up of three large bedrooms, two bathrooms, large dressing room. A large healthy cellar in the basement of 44m2 completes the whole.
