This rare and enchanting apartment lies on the third and top floor of a small, characterful building in the vibrant center of Rouen. Known as the “City of a Hundred Spires,” Rouen exudes timeless charm with its cobblestone streets, half-timbered houses, and a rich tapestry of history that spans centuries. At the pinnacle of this discreet and intimate property is a home designed to captivate lovers of authenticity and refinement.

Upon entering, the preserved details of this attic apartment immediately draw the eye. The original hardwood flooring, gracefully weathered by time, anchors a spacious 32 m² living area. At the heart of the room, a functional central fireplace adds warmth and character. Above, exposed wooden beams, silent witnesses to bygone eras, reach towards a lofty high ceiling, filling the space with light and enhancing its generous proportions. The ambiance is both cozy and intimate, an ideal setting for convivial evenings or quiet reflection.

A semi-open kitchen, practical yet elegant, completes this level, blending seamlessly into the warm and inviting atmosphere. Every detail has been carefully curated to harmonize the charm of history with modern comfort.

An interior staircase leads to the topmost level, a sanctuary of privacy and calm. This floor features a spacious 18.5 m² bedroom, a serene retreat complemented by a custom walk-in closet and an en-suite shower room. Flooded with natural light and enveloped in tranquility, it offers the perfect environment for relaxation.

The apartment has retained its historic soul while embracing contemporary living. Nestled within a small, well-maintained co-ownership, composed of only a handful of units, it offers a welcoming yet discreet atmosphere. The building itself reflects the quintessential architectural heritage of Rouen, blending seamlessly with its historic surroundings.

Beyond the property’s walls lies Rouen’s historic core, a treasure trove of culture and vibrancy. From the echoes of Joan of Arc’s legacy to the canvases of the Impressionists, history breathes life into every corner. Steps away are lively streets offering a mix of boutiques, restaurants, and convenient public transport. Here, the buzz of city life harmonizes with the serenity of a peaceful home.

This unique residence awaits its next chapter, ready to welcome a new owner who will continue its story. Whether as a personal retreat or a pied-à-terre in one of France’s most culturally rich cities, it promises to fulfill every expectation of elegance and charm.

A rare opportunity, not to be missed.
