Contemporary style apartment nestled under the eaves of the city center

With its long linear avenues running towards the sea, its streets at right angles and its cubic buildings out of the imagination of Auguste Perret, the city center of Le Havre appears as a place of expression of modern architecture.

But leaving the beaten track, some old buildings miraculously spared from war damage jealously hide rare and amazing places to live.

This is how we find this attractive apartment of 69 m2 living space (97 m2 on the ground), on the fourth floor of a small condominium located in the heart of the city, a stone’s throw from Espace Coty, the main shopping center of the ocean city. Behind the tall wooden door of the building, a wide staircase rushes up to a final, unpretentious landing.

Nothing predicts, then, what is hidden behind the heavy fire door of the apartment. Once the threshold is crossed, the surprise is total.

A splendid attic space of 42 m2 (56 m2 on the ground) is offered to the eye attracted by the beautiful height under the ridge. It accommodates both a comfortable living room and a spacious fully fitted kitchen.

Punctuated by the gray of the exposed framework, this immaculate white volume lets itself be tamed throughout the day by the changing light interfering with a clever play of roof windows.

If most of them open without vis-à-vis the sky, others allow you to keep an eye on the city. On the other hand, discreetly positioned at the entrance of the apartment, a cloakroom offers its services.

Beyond this living space, two pleasant bedrooms share an elegant bathroom with the added bonus of a superb shower with glass wall. Large enough to place the washing machine, this piece of water has the additional advantage of having an opening to the outside. And to top it all off, a more attractive independent toilet is nestled nearby.

With in addition, its 11.50 m2 cellar and the secure courtyard of the building that can be used to store bikes, this apartment has many assets to convince city dwellers in search of amenities, light and tranquility.
Don’t we say that you have to climb up to see things differently and live peacefully!
