Apartment with shed and courtyard

Rue Paradis: The Spirit of a House Behind the Address. In the heart of Rue Paradis, just steps from Place Castellane, this nearly 100 sq m apartment offers an unexpected respite in the center of Marseille’s 6th arrondissement. Behind a discreet facade, the address reveals a living space that defies traditional apartment conventions. Multiple levels, unique volumes, a private tree-lined courtyard, and a separate garden shed create a living experience closer to that of a house than a typical city apartment. The exploration continues as you move through the spaces, with a layout that gives each room its own distinct character. Wooden floors, polished concrete, high ceilings, and interplay of perspectives create an atmosphere that is both warm and contemporary. At the heart of this interior, the over 20 sq m kitchen stands out as a true living space. It opens generously onto a private tree-lined courtyard, a rare find in this part of Marseille. Hidden from view, this verdant space offers an outdoor area that naturally complements meals, family time, and evenings with friends. At the back of the courtyard, a separate 18 sq m (approx.) outbuilding extends the experience. With its own water supply, shower room, and electricity, it offers complete autonomy and a wide range of uses. Guest room, office, artist’s studio, creative space, or a dedicated space for teenagers: everyone can find their own purpose for it. The two main bedrooms, a cellar, and ample storage complete this family apartment, which combines character, comfort, and potential for future expansion. The location offers another advantage: the ability to experience Rue Paradis and Marseille’s city center on foot, while still enjoying a sense of seclusion at home. Shops, schools, restaurants, public transport, the Castellane market, and iconic addresses in the 6th arrondissement are all within easy reach. The Old Port, Boulevard Périer, Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde, and the city center districts remain easily accessible. An intense urban lifestyle, with the rare respite offered by the courtyard and garden. Whether an atypical apartment in Marseille, a family address, a townhouse, or a creative space, this property is more than just its square footage. It offers a different way of living in the city: an interior that unfolds in stages, a courtyard that transforms into a garden, and a garden shed that opens up a world of possibilities. Located on Rue Paradis, in the heart of the 6th arrondissement, this discreet address offers the rare feeling of having found a hidden gem in the city. ENERGY RATING: C / CLIMATE RATING: A.
