Authentic family townhouse in the Saint-Nicolas district

EXCLUSIVE TO ESPACES ATYPIQUES

Located in the heart of the charming and historic Saint-Nicolas district, this authentic family home, dating back to the 1850s and offering approximately 185 sq m of living space, reveals an unexpected charm behind its white stone facade. Arranged in an L-shape around a landscaped courtyard, it offers an exceptional living environment that blends old-world elegance with contemporary comfort, allowing for single-level living.

The bright, open-plan living spaces are harmoniously arranged on the ground floor. A spacious 47 sq m living room, enhanced by light oak parquet flooring and exposed beams, invites relaxation with its reading nook and features an original fireplace. This space connects to a beautiful 28 sq m eat-in kitchen, equipped with understated storage and a Corian countertop. A fitted utility room completes the home’s practicality. This same level features a first large bedroom currently used as an office overlooking the courtyard, complete with custom-built storage and a bookcase.

A shower room could easily be created in a small adjoining room. Upstairs, a landing with wide, nailed parquet flooring leads to a cozy office space bathed in natural light from the skylight. The sleeping area comprises three further attractive bedrooms, including a bright 20 sq m master suite with its own bathroom.

The two other bedrooms share a recently renovated shower room, while a small adjoining room offers the possibility of creating a dressing room. The true highlight of this townhouse is its charming, flower-filled courtyard of approximately 75 sq m. Adorned with roses and laurels, this secluded terrace provides a peaceful haven, perfect for enjoying sunny days, and also offers bicycle parking. Its location on a lovely residential street guarantees a tranquil urban lifestyle.

The vibrant local shops, the immediate proximity of the Old Port (just 200 meters away), and the TGV train station (a seven-minute walk) make urban living easy. Its generous proportions and warm atmosphere make this period house in La Rochelle a rare family retreat in the area.
