Exceptional apartment in the Malakoff Tower, witness to Trouville’s history

On the seafront of Trouville-sur-Mer, the legendary Malakoff Tower houses a unique 127 sqm apartment, entirely redesigned by an architect. This historic property, the most advanced on the beach, offers two terraces open to the sea horizon and direct access to the beach. The Villa-Tour Malakoff is much more than a simple building; it is a living testimony to local history, combining art, war, social life, and architecture. Built in 1855 by the Norman painter Charles Mozin, known for having discovered Trouville and established his studio there, the tower is built in an evocative Gothic style, resembling a small fortified castle on the water’s edge. Eugène Boudin set up his easel there, Claude Monet painted it, and Marcel Proust took an interest in it. Journalists and actors such as Louis Pauwels and Elina Labourdette made it their exceptional residence. A place of contemplation, vacation, and creation, it embodies the cultural and aesthetic soul of Trouville-sur-Mer. This multi-level property reveals a warm atmosphere with remarkable volumes. The reception room, housed in the rotunda, enjoys a triptych panorama of the sea. The bright and elegant dining room opens onto a functional kitchen. The nautical-inspired staircase leads to the night spaces: a cozy bedroom, a children’s bedroom, a bathroom, and at the heart of the tower, a master suite bathed in light with a built-in bathtub, double exposure, and spectacular view. A vast bathroom with romantic decor completes the ensemble. Outside, the paved terraces form a veritable belvedere on the beach, in a discreet and green setting. All of Trouville’s attractions are within walking distance: market, restaurants, galleries, casino. A rare, heritage property full of emotion, at the crossroads of the Normandy coast and French artistic history.
