Loft with balcony in a former 19th century spinning mill

Located in a former cotton mill, formerly nicknamed “La Ruche” and built in 1885 in the Saint Sever suburb by the Berger et Cie company, this 171m2 loft is set in a magnificent historical and architectural setting.

The textile crisis in the 1960s led to the closure of the spinning mill, which was bought by a subsidiary of Nouvelles Galeries, using it from then on as a storage warehouse until its liquidation.
In 2001, the building aroused the interest of Didier Chabut, promoter, who planned to transform the old spinning mill into around forty lofts combining a contemporary spirit and the building’s industrial character.

The immensity of the building impresses and the central atrium perfectly combines the mixture of glass, metal and brick giving the building all its majesty and elegance.

Designed to ventilate the overly massive building, the atrium takes on its full importance when the visitor enters the loft. Instantly, the masterful 4-meter-high bay windows surprise and bring in a remarkable light opening onto the balcony and a distant view of the renowned Jardin des Plantes in Rouen.

The 101m2 of fully open living spaces with chic and elegant contemporary decoration in dark tones, punctuated here and there with a note of bright colors, gives the whole a neat and warm atmosphere.
All the codes of the loft are present, from the brick walls, to the metal beams through the mezzanines overlooking the living room. The kitchen of about 30m2 in bright red tones is divided into two parts.
An ideal bar area to lean around a drink with friends, while contemplating the view of the outside and the kitchen area with a friendly dining area. Under the mezzanine, a “cozy” living room adorned with a library where many books are piled up, offers an appreciable relaxation area to recharge your batteries, because even if the loft is in the heart of the city, calm reigns in the room. inside. At the back of the living room, a “creation – office” space will appeal to those with an artistic soul, looking for the particular light that the windows passing through the apartment offer.

Finally, the loft is completed by a vertical master suite with shower room, dressing room and bathroom with spa bath, then two other bedrooms, one with private shower room.

Barded by bay windows associated with numerous indirect lighting, this loft takes on multiple facets as you wish, sometimes letting a glimpse of the perspectives or sometimes intimate with subdued lights.

With impeccable finishes, also offering a private parking space, it seduces with its “New York” atmosphere, its history and its proximity to all the amenities of schools, transport and shops.
