Former wine cellar renovated in La Rochelle

EXCLUSIVE TO ESPACES ATYPIQUES

This former wine cellar, converted into a contemporary townhouse of approximately 145sqm, is located in the heart of Laleu, a village-like neighborhood in La Rochelle. The high-quality renovation, carried out with taste and ingenuity, optimizes a modern, family-friendly lifestyle. Raw materials and contemporary elements combine to create a bright and welcoming space. Before entering the house, one must cross a charming inner courtyard enclosed by exposed stone walls and paved in the traditional style. Invisible from the street, it is closed off by a large wooden gate, thus preserving the privacy of the property.

Once inside, there are two possible entrances: either through the traditional front door or via the veranda, whose east-facing workshop-style window allows for abundant natural light. Beyond this first entrance, the second reveals a large living room featuring a fireplace for cozy evenings and a very large bay window opening onto the south-facing terrace and garden.

The slightly raised American-style kitchen takes full advantage of these features to enhance the warm atmosphere! The upper floor is dedicated to the sleeping area with three bedrooms, all boasting high ceilings, a dressing room, a bathroom with a shower, and a separate toilet. One of the bedrooms has a sink and a shower.

A charming, versatile house that, depending on the season, transforms into a chalet or a holiday home! The courtyard provides parking for one vehicle. Just steps from shops, 10 minutes by car from Place de Verdun and 5 minutes from the Île de Ré bridge.
